@RheumNow When it comes to ORAL Surveillance and the 2025 EULAR recommendations, the same sensibility remains.
Appropriate caution based on the RCT, despite observational data, but we’ll see what is yet to come. Plenty to watch this space for

from Rituximab to BiTES to CAR T, always looking for deeper B cell depletion
Safety data from CC312 CD19/CD3/CD28, a triple engager in refractory moderate-to-severe SLE
So far so good but how far do we need to go?

#EULAR2025 Abstr#LB0001 Phase 3 RCT of Deucravacitinib in psoriatic arthritis met endpoints (ACR20) over PBO at Week 16. Prespecified early radiographic was not significant but post-hoc (without imputed data) showed radiographic inhibition @RheumNow https://t.co/ORUBtUWH31

#EULAR2025 Abstr#POS1293 Our cohort study support non-medical switch from Rituximab originator to Biosimilar(RTX-B) or btw RTX-Bs in connective tissue disease. No difference in response/B-cell depletion pre- & post-switch.Only 10% stopped RTX at 5-year.Better than in RA @RheumNow https://t.co/ERPgwQ3gZB

Nerandomilast: the new & improved nintedanib.
Does it work for our rheum pts?
Autoimmune subgroup of FIBRONEER-ILD (NEJM last month)
- mortality benefit vs placebo (this is new)
- well tolerated (minimal increase in diarrhoea vs placebo)
One to watch

#EULAR2025 Abstr#LB0003 Post-hoc analyses of Phase 3 RCT: Nerandomilast (with or without Nintadenib combo) in sub-group patients with autoimmune #ILD reported similar lung efficacy and safety over PBO, in line with overall trial population. Diarrhoea was common AE @RheumNow https://t.co/fxRdflCi9W

In RCT of RA pts in remission/low disease activity, spacing ozoralizumab (next gen TNFi) or reducing MTX led to more flares vs continued tx; but most pts in remission at baseline maintained LDAS.
Remission matters for subsequent Tx reduction.

#EULAR2025 Abstr#LB0004 Phase 2 RCT of first-in-class, Enpatoran, TLR7/8-i in active #SLE despite SOC (Cohort B) reported nominal improvement in BICLA but no dose-dependent response. Greater effects seen on active CLE, high IFN-GS or high dose GC. No major safety signal @RheumNow https://t.co/aX4ier0rAy

Enpatoran (TLR7/8 inhibitor) in SLE & CLE
- helps skin, others?
- suppresses interferon
lowest dose was highest response though (upsetting primary endpoint)
Promising, watch for the ph3

🦵🏻SAP-001, a novel uricosuric targeting a non-URAT1 renal transporter, lowered sUA <6 mg/dL in up to 79% of patients with refractory #gout on b/g xanthine oxidase inhibitor. >50% on 60 mg/day reached sUA <3 mg/dL.
💊Potential new oral ULT option.

✅Exciting results from POETYK PsA-1: -Deucravacitinib (TYK2i) in PsA
-ACR 20 was achieved in significantly more patients treated with deucravacitinib vs placebo at W16 (54.2% vs 34.1%; P < 0.0001), with similar results for ACR 50 and ACR 70
-Also met 2dary endpoints.
-Post hoc https://t.co/S4DhovMCma
