Will there be new Rx for Sjo?
T Dorner: 73 pts Ph2 BTK 100mg BID/100 QD/PBO
Better ESSDAI at wk 24 (p=0.003)
Unstim saliv flow: improved vs PBO, not stat signif
Decreased CXCL13 chemokine
PROs not improved

FOREMOST results: Early oligoarticular PsA pts experienced high disease burden/decreased QoL. Small joint involvement, although less commonly seen in oligoarticular PsA, was the most frequently observed pattern. Abs 1018 #ACR22 @RheumNow https://t.co/wBldKM9MTq https://t.co/qOVZd8aTyR

DANBIO registry plenary Abs 1112 finds 1 yr retention following a mandatory nationwide infliximab biosimilar-to-biosimilar switch was high. Retention higher in originator-experienced and in pts w/ low disease activity. #ACR22 @RheumNow https://t.co/ZAV2dcVzXl https://t.co/Kti2bZ1pkZ

#ACR22 Plenary II. Abstr#1113 Promising news in #Sjogren. Phase 2 RCT showed oral BTK-i Remibrutinib improved ESSDAI score vs Placebo (delta -2.8) & salivary flow at Wks 24. ESSPRI unchanged. No major safety concern. Look forward to Phase 3 results soon @RheumNow #ACRBest https://t.co/z0oy9FvheY

Sjogren's in a Plenary! Remibrutinib (BTKi) in SjS
Improved ESSDAI at wk 24, but NONE on ESSPRI (more patient-centric ie fatigue, dryness, joint pain)
Definitely helps w/lab abnormalities, but worried benefit for outcomes that matter may be limited

Interesting Abs 0825: MAS was most often caused 2nd to a benign disease. Most common presentation: fever w/ cytopenias. Ferritin levels more than 7511 and ferritin/ CRP levels more than 204.5 ass'd w/ higher mortality. #ACR22 @RheumNow https://t.co/HEuMedE9Rh https://t.co/6f4bf7x9Hh

Initial Remibrutinib (oral, covalent, and highly specific inhibitor of Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK)) data in SS shows good efficacy and safety. Plenary Abs 1113 #ACR22 @RheumNow https://t.co/5Zr0Y1ueAv https://t.co/Iy194YUWNC

DANBIO registry: 1600+ pts RA, AxSpA, PsA
Infiximab biosimilar to biosimilar switch (CT-P13 -> GP1111)
Maintenance at 1yr:
>80%
> withdrawal in original IFX naive, but higher BL DA
Do second time switchers do better because of past switch experience?

We're used to originator-to-biosimilar switches.
Widespread biosim use means we now see biosim-biosim switches (incl as second switch)
DANBIO data
retention good
I see the hallmarks of nocebo still an issue
I think we can all agree: ongoing education important

Yes. But this only accounts for 1/3 of risk to develop clinical RA.
We need a better understanding of the other 2/3 so we can propose efficient preventive interventions.

@EBRheum @RheumNow Its more than that…tubulointerstitial kidney disease, lymph nodes, salivary gland, and hepatobiliary tract disease don’t show findings of vasculitis.
Certain HLA haplotypes more linked with autoimmune diseases are present.

@AlexisOgdie et al: PsA pts who were MDA, DAPSA LDA, or ACR50 responders vs non-responders reported clinically meaningful improvements across PROs including pain, physical function, fatigue, and work productivity. Abs 1019 #ACR22 @RheumNow https://t.co/MK13sXS3Or https://t.co/TfCrQMV2JX

Presence of DFS pattern should not be used to indiscriminately exclude presence of a rheumatic disease based on retrospective study in Abs 0814. RA, SS and Raynaud's ICD10 codes were higher among DFS pattern ANA per chart review. #ACR22 @RheumNow https://t.co/mLtppvR4dk https://t.co/6Lukxntqe7

Biosimilar to biosimilar effective in treatment of RA/PsA/AxSpA.
Large study looking at infliximab biosimilar switching - resulted in high retention rates and virtually no change in disease activity.
