Comparative risks of skin SCC and BCC with different DMARDs. Abatacept appeared worst, HR 2.18, but may be residual confounding due to burden disease/comorbidities. Abstr#1942 #ACR21 @RheumNow https://t.co/UzOwuKKFmX

Important late breaker @TerrierBen, DBRCT of RTX vs GC (FFS=0) or CYC (FFS>0) for EGPA RTX not superior to CYC (64% RTX vs 60% CYC BVAS remission d180, p = 0.745); similar in subgroups Feel like this lends support to (~surprising) ACR/VF recs for EGPA? #ACR21 #ACRAmbassador https://t.co/gpsPtXF6pj

#ACR21 L19: TitAIN: Secukinumab for GCA ⭐️Phase 2 study with n=52 ⭐️70% of SEC sustained remission at wk 28 vs 20% PBO, 59% at week 52 vs 8% ⬇️Cumulative prednisolone through wk 52 (2.8g v 3.4g) - Looking forward to larger study @Rheumnow https://t.co/cuM9LcEr4u https://t.co/TmyS0kixFg
