Brief Summary:

C.O.R.P.U.S. is the first French observatory of care practices in active inflammatory rheumatism of children and adults: rheumatoid arthritis, spondylarthropathy, and idiopathic juvenile arthritis, established under the auspices of national health authorities.

Its goal is to document safety, effectiveness in routine practice of various therapy, including biotherapy, of prescription or non-prescription over 5 years.

A cohort will be constituted including any new case of active disease (DAS 28 > 3,2, BASDAI > 4, failure of methotrexate), without previous prescription of biotherapy. Therefore, it will be possible to have patients non exposed to biotherapy (non indication, refusal, contraindication) compared to patients exposed to biotherapy, and to monitor adverse events occurrence as well as effectiveness in routine practice over time, according to prescription, maintenance or switch of various therapies.
