Comparison of auranofin, gold sodium thiomalate, and placebo in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. A controlled clinical trial

TL;DR: Results confirm that both parenteral and oral gold may be effective for the treatment of RA, that GST tends to show greater efficacy than auranofin, and that auran ofin has fewer significant adverse effects than GST, however, long-term benefits, tolerability, and safety cannot be inferred.
