#2686 Using HR-pQCT, researchers tracked bone changes in RA & PsA. Seropositive RA showed worst bone density & microstructure, worsening with disease activity. TNFi, RTX & BARI improved MCP bone density, highlighting the impact of inflammation and treatment. @RheumNow #ACR25

GLP-1 RA vs DPP4i & risk of rheumatic disease: propensity score matched cohort study using TriNetX
🔹 Lower incidence of OA, RA & gout w/ GLP-1 RA
🔹 No significant differences for PsA, SSc, axSpA, or SLE

#2662
Using Medicare data to emulate real-world RA-ILD trials, investigators compared RTX vs ABA, TOC, JAKi & TNFi
No sig differences in mortality, resp, hospitalisation or lung transplant across groups, suggesting other b/tsDMARDs may be as safe as RTX for RAILD

Abstract 2694: Neutrophil:Lymphocyte ratio (NLR)- a practical step towards clinical monitoring of interferon?
Log₂NLR significantly correlated with all three IFN signatures across patients with SLE, systemic sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and myositis

McDermott et al. Target trial emulation of different b/tsDMARDs in RA-ILD. RTX as SOC. No significant differences seen in hospitalisation or death. Trends to abatacept and JAKi looking better... @RheumNow #ACR25 Abstr#2662 #ACRBest https://t.co/ghHEKztvgz

#PD1 Ab looks good and safe in active RA
Rosnilimab, a Selective and Potent Depleter of Pathogenic T
Many failed several Rx already
No safety signals compared to another PD1i
Proof of benefit in biospecimens too!

#2661 In >5000 veterans with RA-ILD, 8 distinct FVC trajectories were identified. >1/2showed a progressive decline (≥0.7%/yr). These progressive patterns predicted higher mortality & respiratory hospitalisations, underscoring major disease heterogeneity. @RheumNow #ACR25
#2682 In a randomised trial of 320 RA patients, the recombinant zoster vaccine (RZV) was safe and did not trigger disease flares. But methotrexate use and older age significantly blunted antibody responses ➡️key factors to consider for vaccine strategies in RA. @RheumNow #ACR25
In the epidemiology session on the final day of #ACR25, a large cohort study (>430k pts) showed that GLP-1 receptor agonists were linked to lower incidence of RA, gout & OA vs DPP-4 inhibitors. Adds to the growing case for GLP-1 benefits beyond glucose control. @RheumNow #2657

Autologous CAR-Treg in RA, without any lymphodepletion preRx
Early data from ph1, single dose
Good initial response, stopped RA Rx, but some rebound
Clearly work ongoing but excitement re:
- CAR-Treg
- RA as target dx
- no lymphodepletion
