          In BIODOPT study (RA, PsA, axSpA), disease activity-guided tapering of biologics (incl. biosimilars) maintained QALY (Δ0.008, NS) while lowering biologic costs (Δ€–1,979 [95%CI –3,798;–161]) & total hospital costs (Δ€–1,936 [95%CI –3,753;–119]) over 18mo.

          What ‘CAR’ to drive?
#CAR-T buzz was at #EULAR2025
In multiple #rheumatic #diseases
#SLE
#Scleroderma
#Sjogrens 
#myositis 
Even #axial #SpA 
Who - active, not a lot of damage
Which target 🎯 
Which priming regiment 
What will results be compared to?
Who will pay?

          Psoriatic Arthritis at Risk for Interstitial Lung Disease
A TriNetX EHR study shows that psoriatic arthritis (PsA), but not Psoriasis (PsO), patients are at increased risk for interstitial lung disease (ILD).

          Late-Onset Disease: Different Age, Different Rules? 
We’re seeing more patients develop rheumatic diseases for the first time in their 60s, 70s, or beyond. But are these truly the same diseases we see in younger adults, or do they behave differently, shaped by age-related https://t.co/ubVRhhRGxG

          Biologic switching in PsA:
-Retrospective study on 3,851 PsA pts initiating bDMARDs, 1,848 (48%) switched therapy at least once. 
-TNFis were the initial therapy.
-IL17i  were the first switch in both single-switch and multi-switch scenarios. 
-Subsequent switches: back to TNFi https://t.co/tJDJvPeu9T

          ARIAA study: longer-term data now
High-risk ACPA+ clinically suspect arthralgias
abatacept for 6mo, then stop altogether
Really impressive long-term effect
also noting success of APIPPRA, abatacept flicks off some very early RA, at least for a while
