EULAR Highlights. 2 new JAKs presented more RA data. Upadacitinib and Filgotinib. Safety of JAKs in meta-analysis -no new safety signals. Tofacitinib use in Corrona = TNFI except slightly more shingles. 7yr Baricitinib data good - no VTE in LTE #EULAR2019 @RheumNow

Eular highlights. RA guidelines still mostly like before - all MOA drugs ok after MTX and still taper if sustained remission. I think don't fully D/C all background Rx in most #EULAR2019 @RheumNow

Eular highlights? SSc trials near misses for efficacy. Abatacept v placebo in early diffuse scleroderma had begun primary outcome for skin but positive composite measure of response (CRISS) TCZ beg on skin but nearly significant; maybe less lung progression #EULAR2019 @RheumNow

Eular highlights SLE Rx Belimumab in largest SLE RCT is safe. Ustikinumab decreases interferon in SLE- Eploratory results from + RCT. Maybe blood levels of hydroxychloroquine may reduce Retinopathy by decreasing dose if high and detect adherence if too low #EULAR2019 @RheumNow

Eular highlights in scleroderma. Nintedanib + for SSc ILD. Positive correlations of combined response in SSc measure and PROs in RCT exploratory analysis of Lenabusum a cannabinoid receptor agonist, maybe riociguat helps Raynauds and digital ulcers #EULAR2019 @RheumNow

Eular highlights Sjögren's syndrome. Maybe new Rx pathway of small early phase RCT with RSLV-132 via toll like receptor 8 acting on interferon - reducing fatigue. Too early to know. #EULAR2019 @RheumNow
