R Furie on Decravacitinib in SLE
48wk double-blind trial. PBO v DEU 3mgBID, 6 mgBID,12 mg qd
Higher response, faster time to SRI(4), BICLA and dual response v PBO. More likely to sustain response from w32-48. https://t.co/M34d3nQmwv

LEGACY Cohort - Rx monitoring AZA/Tacro in SLE pregnancy
Ab#0586 #ACR23 @RheumNow
70 pregnancie. 33% prescribed AZA, 9% TAC
AZA - 91% subtherapeutic or non-adherent
More likely in non-Caucasian, on steroids, longer SLE duration, prior lupus nephritis
TAC - 3/6 therapeutic levels

Do probiotics improve psoriatic arthritis?
Unfortunately no difference in disease activity compared to placebo.
Limited effects on gut dysbiosis
Minor effects on T cell composition

Targeted OX40L (co-stimulatory APC protein w/ possible polymorphisms in SLE) study by Womba et al, found OX40L targeted CAR-Tregs had superior in vitro suppression of activated T cells & dendritic cells relative to Control-Tregs. #ACR23 Abs 0799 https://t.co/GgCGGIvhHF @rheumnow https://t.co/GZMEUCTooh

Should the cost of #CAR-T stop us from considering in severe refractory #lupus? So far update of German group show remission - drug free and great safety. But hold on..we need RCTs with an active control and longer f/u, but I am impressed! #ACR23 #ACRbest @ACRheum @RheumNow #784 https://t.co/mRMWLCbpCY

#ACR23 tidbits from Sunday @ACRheum @RheumNow
1 Less steroids better w other #Rx in #GCA, #PMR, #SLE #nephritis, #nonrenal #lupus BUT NOT in Severe GCA
2 Trend for combined immune modulators in #lupus GN or w a #CNI
3 #HCQ is better than sliced bread in #SLE aim for drug level

Lower persistance of TNFi in women than men in Psa👍🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷 CHU Mondor

Biologic persistance rates consistently lower in women vs men with PsA. 52% vs 62% @ 1 year. Some statistically significant, but really it is a consistent message across drugs. We urgently need research on the reasons. Abstr#0779 #ACR23 @RheumNow https://t.co/Kfk3k3LJ44 https://t.co/SmiOnt7D4d

Risk factor for 1st Thrombosis in OB APS
Ab#0115 #ACR23 @RheumNow
186 OAPS pts, followed mean 5.4 yrs. 11 thrombotic events
Risk factors: Triple pos APS Abs (OR 11.6), hypocomplementemia (OR 9)
Low dose Aspirin (OR 0.14), HCQ (OR 0.11) reduced thrombosis

🆕 Imaging modality: MSOT multispectral optoacoustic tomography
Findings PsA enthesis
-Hyperemia ↗️ oxygenation So2 and Hboxy
-Reduction Collagen concentration
-Lipids substitution
But surprise PSO pts display similar signs despite abs of symptoms!

Abs#518 @RheumNow #ACR23
Deodhar: TOFA in AS, by b/l CRP levels
30% nml CRP (<5 mg/L) v 70% Elevated
At wk 12, TOFA >> PBO regardless of b/l CRP
Difference in response: greater in pts w elevated CRP
Safety rates: elev. CRP c/w PBO, but nml CRP had trend of high AEs for tofa v PBO https://t.co/b9NRNkU8ub

Are Long-term NSAIDs safe in AS?
Ab#0528 #ACR23 @RheumNow
19,775 AS pts vs 59,325 controls.
Incidence of 16.9, 13.8 per 1,000 person-yrs, respectively
Long-term use of NSAIDs increased risk of CVD in non-AS control (aHR 1.64), but did NOT in AS pts (aHR 1.06)

Differences in #glucocorticoid dosing. In #lupus #nephritis less steroids are the same as high dose steroids. Placebo arms of pooled data from #LN #RCTs. Less is equal! #ACRbest #ACR2023 @RheumNow @ACRheum abst0781 High dose steroids tended to have lower MMF doses https://t.co/XwTlsy4xKE

2 yrs extension of DRESS-PS study
100+ pts w/ PsA and AxSPA
-70% LDA state in both Ctrl & Intervention gps
-strong recovery after relapse
No difference efficacy protocolized & routine care tapering but inferior TNFi use (52 vs. 77%) in Intervention gp
