    @RheumNow #ACR20 abs1923 prosp cohort study of angiographic lesions in Takayasu’ &GCA: although infrequent new angio lesions more likely in TAK. Improvement is possible in both conditions, more likely to occur in TAK. Change in the branch arteries more dynamic than in the aorta https://t.co/2KsZ6o3vtP

    Mavrilimumab (anti-GM-CSF) in GCA, phase 2 GM-CSF upstream to both Th1 & Th17 pathways; potential for dx-modifying?? PNL induction then enrol+PNL taper GCA flare (ESR/CRP+Sx/imaging): mavrilimumab RRR 62% Enormous potential, worth exploring! Cid et al #ACR20 ABSTL06 @RheumNow https://t.co/mq5sTVGbPs

    Can you give TCZ for GCA with minimal steroids? Everyone hates steroids, right? GUSTO trial: IVMP 500mg x3d +TCZ sc q1w 14/18 achieved clinical remission at 24w (but mean 11w) 13/18 relapse-free 1/18 permanent visual loss Is that tradeoff worth it? #ACR20 ABST0515 @RheumNow https://t.co/H9rgSxL6VP

    Following RITAZAREM, would you use rituximab maintenance for ANCA-associated vasculitis patients (cost aside)? @RheumNow

    RITZAREM (RTX vs AZA maintenance post RTX induction relapsing AAV) what happened post-study? After #ACR19, hope RTX confers ongoing benefit Answer: no. Same decline Is 1g q4m dosing not justified? Does that mean RTX needs to be continued, and in whom? #ACR20 ABST2052 @RheumNow https://t.co/tldGqca8xC

    SLR comparing the 4-dose ANCA #vasculitis (AAV) rituximab regimen (widely used in RCTs) to 2-dose #rheumatoidarthritis RTX regimen (common in clinical practice), to induce AAV remission, finds no difference in efficacy or safety. Abs#2048 #ACR20 @RheumNow https://t.co/WBaWN9d8vs
