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

Suppression of inflammation fire 🔥 in #axSpA
may prevent subclinical atherosclerosis progression ❤️
🔺️90 patients
🔺️74% achieved LDA at 12 mo
🔺️Carotid plaque progression was higher in non-LDA group

RA is worst with temperature rising/ climate change.
However SpA has the opposite effect!

Tips for Dx RP:
1. Suspect the dx and recognize chondritis.
2. Rule out mimickers
3.Tracheal involvement shows swelling>stenosis (helps ≠from GCA)
4. CV, heme, derm manifestations 🧐VEXAS.
5. biopsy not useful unless ≠ from GCA.

Climate Change Impacts #Rheumatology Care Taking
HEAT 🥵 causes:
🔺️⬆️ Hospitalisations
🔺️Renal failure ⚠️ NSAIDs
🔺️Flooding: no access to healthcare
🔺️New Infectious diseases mimics RMDs: Zika...
🔺️Insecurities for drug storage and transportation

Genicular artery embolisation is like so many interventions in MSK medicine:
early promise with smaller RCT & observational data, but the later, more robust data doesn’t show the same benefit.
If you do meta-analyses of all these data, you mix good with bad

Results from open label
extension of BE-OPTIMAL:
-Bimekizumab in bDMARD naïve pts showed sustained efficacy after 1y until 3y.
-No significant major tolerability issues or major SE.

ICI-PMR irAEs are sometimes underestimated compared to inflamm arthritis, but why?
ICI-IA and ICI-PMR look different, but at @HSpecialSurgery, steroid needs and disease impact for both are basically the same. Let’s not devalue either

✅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

Hidradenitis suppurativa is newer to us in rheumatology, but it seems like inflamm arthritis is a problem - at least to a similar extent as in psoriasis.
Time for us to look for it & to see what therapies like IL-17 inhibitors do for this arthritis

Dual pandemic in Africa.
Increasing lifestyle diseases and obesity, along with infections and malnutrition.
These may be reflected in rheumatic diseases too (if they could be studied in detail)
