#POS0709 #EULAR2022 Pooled analyses of TULIP-1 & -2 RCTs showed sustained & #lupus patients spent longer time in BICLA response vs Placebo up to 52 Wks. BILAG response was sustained in MSK, skin and constitutional domains. Be interesting to see longer follow-up data @RheumNow https://t.co/kNk7WFloLf

CTD associated ILD 🫁:
lncRNA ENST00000604692 detected in PBMCs is associated with CTD-ILD and can distinguish SSc-
ILD and RA-ILD vs. non ILD patients with AUC 0.79.
As many lncRNA, unknown if biomarker only or has a pathogenic role.

B-cell depletion w/ RTX ttmt is FcγR dependant & affected by FcγRs variants 🧬
FCGR3A-158V:
*encodes the allotype ⬆️ affinity for IgG1
*is associated w/ clinical and biological responses in RA and SLE.
A new way to stratify pts for anti-CD20 therapy?

Kristensen et al. 52 week results KEEPsAKE 1 RCT risankizumab vs PBO to week 24, then rescue, in csDMARD-IR PsA. ACR20 57% vs 34% (PBO) week 24, week 52 70%/63% ACR20. ACR 50/70 similar differences. PASI even better. @RheumNow #EULAR2022 POS1024 https://t.co/USQsMQ7oxu

Baseline molecular differences noted in PsA patients who are TNFi naive and incomplete responders. Elevated IL-22 expression may suggest increased involvement of IL-23 pathway in TNF-IR pts. @RheumNow #EULAR2022 ABST#POS0074

Large French study of over 23k patients with either PsA or PsO showed a longer persistence (time of initiation to discontinuation) in those who took IL-17i vs. TNFi for PsA and PsO pts. IL-17i longer than IL-12/23i in PsA pts.

Kimme Hyrich:
💉Risks of autoimmune flare is very low (3-5%)
💉Flares are mild when present after COVID-19 vaccination
Most unvaccinated patients did NOT identify as "anti-vax"... number 1 reason is concerns about their health
