#EULAR2025 Abstr#OP0265 Do we have convenient biomarkers to help predict new ANA+ referral who would progress to #SLE #Sjogren at 12 mths? Proteomics analysis identified IFN and B-cell markers. Validation is needed and to incorporate clinical items into prognostic model @RheumNow https://t.co/TWClLTKQ0b

#EULAR2025 Abstr#POS0318 Single timepoint assessment may not show true picture of #SLE control. Data from BILAG-BR registry using machine learning showed 6 trajectories with clinical meaning:
-Nonresponse with high activity: dsDNA-ve & RNP+
-Response-flare: active MSK @RheumNow https://t.co/VrI8e4ONtM

In BIODOPT study (RA, PsA, axSpA), disease activity-guided tapering of biologics (incl. biosimilars) maintained QALY (Δ0.008, NS) while lowering biologic costs (Δ€–1,979 [95%CI –3,798;–161]) & total hospital costs (Δ€–1,936 [95%CI –3,753;–119]) over 18mo. Supports https://t.co/CJUpfU2oRA

What ‘CAR’ to drive?
#CAR-T buzz was at #EULAR2025
In multiple #rheumatic #diseases
#SLE
#Scleroderma
#Sjogrens
#myositis
Even #axial #SpA
Who - active, not a lot of damage
Which target 🎯
Which priming regiment
What will results be compared to?
Who will pay?

Late-Onset Disease: Different Age, Different Rules?
We’re seeing more patients develop rheumatic diseases for the first time in their 60s, 70s, or beyond. But are these truly the same diseases we see in younger adults, or do they behave differently, shaped by age-related https://t.co/ubVRhhRGxG

Biologic switching in PsA:
-Retrospective study on 3,851 PsA pts initiating bDMARDs, 1,848 (48%) switched therapy at least once.
-TNFis were the initial therapy.
-IL17i were the first switch in both single-switch and multi-switch scenarios.
-Subsequent switches: back to TNFi https://t.co/tJDJvPeu9T

ARIAA study: longer-term data now
High-risk ACPA+ clinically suspect arthralgias
abatacept for 6mo, then stop altogether
Really impressive long-term effect
also noting success of APIPPRA, abatacept flicks off some very early RA, at least for a while
