French real-world AxSpA cohort analysis showed drug retention of SEC & TNFi were similar. In subgroups analyses, age, BASDAI at dx & BMI were similar. Abs 0911 #ACR21 #RheumNow @RheumNow https://t.co/ewtmpxKTNu https://t.co/Yh0nX3x83Z

Getting closer to personalised medicine in AS, ECM-mediated biomarkers may help predict response to Adalimumab in AS. The biomarkers C1M, C6M and
PRO-C4 were lower in responders to adalimumab treatment after 24 weeks @RheumNow #ACR21 Abst#0915 https://t.co/K2YxPvUAwu https://t.co/w9kcBSFeG9

There is increase in ASDAS, BASDAI, CRP and faecal calprotectin levels although not reaching a clinical flare in AS patients who had CZP stopped compared to those who continue CZP full or reduced dose @RheumNow #ACR21 Abst#0916 https://t.co/Wlwirs1QXF https://t.co/jE4smHMXBI

Single Intraarticular Canakinumab in Knee OA - 18-week randomized, double-blind, double-dummy Placebo and naproxen-controlled - effect no different than Placebo. Some efficacy in subgroup with high hsCRP. Need for subtypes in OA @rheumnow #ACR21 #abst0728 https://t.co/YlKTMf56wF

D1 and D2 trials compared guselkumab vs placebo in patients with active PsA, with the major difference between the two being that only biologic-naïve patients were enrolled in the D2 trial. Today, we discuss three abstracts presented at ACR 2021 that expand on that work with an additional year of data.

@MilenaGianfran @JYazdanyMD present on differential effects of biologics on CDAI in obese patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Abatacept better than TNFi in obese. Tocilizumab better than TNFi in non-obese. Abstr#0588 #ACR21 @RheumNow #ACRBest https://t.co/UcEpMAmNVw

French, real-world axSpA cohort analysis shows SEC and TNFi retention rates similar. What do you see in your practice? Abs 0911 #ACR21 #RheumNow @RheumNow https://t.co/vu3zUwfktl https://t.co/v6DLjWJMn4

The RheumNow faculty have been glued to their monitors all day, watching video, and running down abstract presentations to find the best – several of these stood out as #ACRBests. Here is a listing of “Best” they saw on Day 1.

Interim analysis of real world data on AQUILA (Dr Uta Kiltz et al): how gender affects SEC tx and retention rates:
🔷Improvement in BASDAI, PGA, global fnxn & depressive mood - similar in both ♂️&♀️
🔷High SEC retention rates irrespective of gender

In rheumatoid arthritis we have a wide range of options available to us when we progress to a biologic treatment option. We have little to differentiate between these agents based on the clinical trials. We often make our choices based on minor hints from clinical features, comorbidities, or cost considerations.
