The Vectra multi-biomarker disease activity (MBDA) test measures 12 protein biomarkers in the blood to assess rheumatoid arthritis (RA) activity. Research suggests that the Vectra MBDA score is more accurate than DAS28-CRP or CRP for predicting radiographic progression of RA, which means it can better predict joint damage Show Full Answer

The Vectra multi-biomarker disease activity (MBDA) test measures 12 protein biomarkers in the blood to assess rheumatoid arthritis (RA) activity. Research suggests that the Vectra MBDA score is more accurate than DAS28-CRP or CRP for predicting radiographic progression of RA, which means it can better predict joint damage. A score of 45 falls within the range for high RA activity (45-100), indicating significant disease activity and potential for severe joint damage.

I don’t think I’ve had one but I’ve had so many tests I can’t remember them all!

I haven't had one but thank you for bringing it up. I am going to ask my rheumatologist when I go in a couple of weeks.

No I have not had the lab because Xeljanz restores joint damage by RA.
