New #EULAR2019 data finds a link between vitamin D deficiency and disease activity among #spondyloarthritis patients. This could help explain the cause of "osteoporosis related to spondyloarthritis, and may adversely affect the patient’s functional status and quality of life."

Interesting discussion about nocebo effect when swapping to biosimilars. “Cheaper” may trigger this.
Health professionals need to understand we are salespeople in many situations. Language, trust, style matter.

Ritchlin: Bimekizumab (anti-IL17A & F) Phase 2B in active PsA = rapid response but also further increases wk12 to wk20 and sustained to wk48.

@_connectedcare @RheumNow Certainly good rationale for also blocking IL-17F from pathophysiology point of view but will need to see if leads to diffs in RCTs…may also be important for IBD/other conditions

@StefanSiebert1 @RheumNow Do you think (gut feel) the combined inhibition of A & F looks better than IL17A inhibition alone? I know hard to compare without H2H but given you’re in this field of research...#eular2019
