#POS0716 #EULAR2022 Systematic review and meta-analysis of 7 studies (i.e. only 1 x proof of concept RCT) showed high SRI-4 response rate (82%) in #lupus patients treated on IL2. Injection reaction (33%) and Fever (24%). Promising and definitive RCT is needed @RheumNow https://t.co/BBcgt11yNT

#POS0713 #EULAR2022 Exploratory analyses from Phase 2 RCT showed numerically more patients treated with BIIB059, a BDCA2 inhibitor achieved a clear (CLASI of 0-1) and almost clear cutaneous #lupus (CLASI 0-3). Looking forward to Phase 3 results in the next few years @RheumNow https://t.co/dDbwYCx7zT

#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

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?

“I would not use rituximab unless I have to; use it in vasculitis/SLE nephritis, but for RA, you have other options.” – Prof. I McGinnes #EULAR2022 @rheumnow

#EULAR2022 Prof Pascual gave a great talks on use of transcriptomic analysis in stratifying #lupus & disease understanding. Tour de force from blood IFN signature use to Plasmablast (correlate with activity inc. in African) and Neutrophil/myeloid signatures (nephritis) @RheumNow https://t.co/tiX55ARDvC

Interestingly, anti-IFN Ab can be present in #SLE pts and impact the IFN signature.
There is a bimodal type I IFN signature in #SLE.
IFN and Blys signatures overlap (?distinct populations/interactions between the two?) - Prof T Dorner #EULAR2022 @rheumnow https://t.co/phLXv2KVxR

#OP0142 #EULAR2022 Morand compared LLDAS in Early (<1yr) and Established #lupus. Although Early were younger & had higher disease activity, time-to-LLDAS was shorter. LLDAS was protective of flare in both. Should target for LLDAS early in diagnosis to improve outcomes @RheumNow https://t.co/7i9c69YkR3

New #SLE drug to pay attention to!
iberdomide target Ikaros and Aiolos, reduce B cell, reduce autoAb and reduce IFN sig while enhancing regulatory T cells- Prof T Dorner #EULAR2022 @rheumnow https://t.co/q39pxK3gFJ

No need to switch TNFi during pregnancy. Study compared high placental vs. low placental transfer TNFi- no sig difference for SIE in childhood. Dr. L Flatman comparing different TNFi in pregnancy: 26,000 offsprings #EULAR2022 @rheumnow OP0130 https://t.co/IF5hepQoHc

#SLE hospitalized pts had worse outcomes than matched controls ? Due to interfonopathy and poor handling of viral infections - worse if #Rituximab or #MMF T Dormer BUT vaccination works if enough B cells responding to #Covid vaccine #EULAR2022 #Lupus scientific session @RheumNow https://t.co/MBb3Dvxmqp

Million $$$ questions presented to Prof T Dorner: anifrolumab vs. belimumab for #SLE? He prefers belimumab d/t more data on multiple organ manifestations ^ it might be protective in pts w/ COVID19 infection. If skin dz is predominant, then anifrolumab #EULAR2022

#Belimumab safety in pregnancy
EudraVigilance database retrospect study 47 preg: BEL stopped 1st trimester (group A) vs. cont'd (group B)
- no diff in fetal death
- more preterm birth/low birth weight, congenital malform'n in group A (not stat sig) #EULAR2022 @rheumnow POS0705 https://t.co/sLQ3MHNcWa

#COVIDvaccine is effective in active and inactive #SLE disease. Noted reduced response for MMF, MTX, GC>10 mg/day. Threshold of B cells is 9+ cell/uL to have a vaccine response. Prof T Dorner #EULAR2022 @rheumnow https://t.co/qyNUZxMccD

#SLE responses with #anifrolimumab separate vs standard of care+placebo& LLDAS at 12 weeks-predictor was high Type I IFN (younger, ⬆️disease activity) but diff sig for response w #belimumab. At bedside diff to tell pts with various signatures apart. #EULAR2022 @RheumNow Dorner https://t.co/98Sb3MIEps
