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?

Why would higher active dose of #methotrexate with sc admin & more metabolites polyglutamates which can give side effects have LESS AEs? Never understood it! #ACR21 abst#1695 @RheumNow https://t.co/qrEKofX1cl

Post hoc analysis of pooled data from 19 clin trials on SEC & CV risk & systemic #inflammation in PsO, PsA, AS
📌Traditional CV parameters remained stable on all SEC treated grps
📌SEC sig. ⬇hsCRP & NLR

b/tsDMARDs + tumor response in rheum irAEs
Excellent point by @CCalabreseDO @LCalabreseDO:
- despite progression in 5/10, DMARD contribution uncertain (bad cancer)
- without DMARD, ICI would have had to stop
crucial question, prospective study needed

Autoantibodies are underrated in rheumatic irAEs (?B cells in general), but probably not your usual.
If Ab are of interest, suspect we're going to have to look at non-classical ones

For patients with inflammatory irAEs, what's your preference of bDMARD/tsDMARD?
(keeping in mind both irAE response and tumor response)
