My favorite three presentations from day 4 (Tuesday) at ACR 2021 included the following.

⭐️Prevalent drug utilization was not related to enthesitis activity
⭐️Prevalent use of cDMARDs 🔼physician GAS compared to TNFi/IL-17i
⭐️No correlation in disease activity scores amongst the use of different prevalent PsA drug Rx

#Guselkimab Better than #ustekinumab for skin& MSK. #Ixekizumab beat ustekinumab for skin. #ustekinumab loses throne in #psoriasis and #psoriatic arthritis except maybe if concomitant inflammatory bowel disease post TNFi? Rapidly evolving PsA Rx. Abst#1773 #ACR21 @RheumNow https://t.co/Dkf2DFFsSK

IL17 IS Impt in giant cell arthritis. Who would’ve thought that #secukinumab would treat #GCA? More options for pts. Only 52 pts but maybe another Rx for GCA? #ACR21 abst#L19 https://t.co/dwbPmGswQ9

IL-17i for GCA? TitAIN study met all endpoints!
phase II: 52 pt DBRPCT 1:1 for 52 weeks secukinumab vs PCB
👉effective sustained remission
👉longer time to GCA flare
👉lower dose of steroids by week 52
👉no increase in AEs

Prevalent drug utilization unrelated to enthesitis in PsA. Pts on cDMARDs had higher physician globals vs those treated w/TNFi & IL-17i. In aggregate, no pattern of dz activity scores correlation w/drugs. Abs 1782 #ACR21 #RheumNow @RheumNow @doctorRBC https://t.co/x57BkBjpjo https://t.co/QmdXqOxLki

The third day of ACR 2021 took a big leap in online content. Here is a compilation (with links) of presentations were the “ACRBest” as seen by our RheumNow faculty.

This post hoc analysis of SPIRIT 1&2 in #psoriaticarthritis pts w/ symptoms indicative of axial involvement showed that Ixekizumab reduced axial symptoms and improved QoL at wks 16 & 24.
Reassuring data.

AQUILA study, SEC improved disease activity, depression of PsA patients in both men and women. Women showed overall higher burden of disease. SEC effective up to 52 weeks with high treatment retention rates irrespective of gender @RheumNow #ACR21 Abst#1334 https://t.co/9cPGq5M648 https://t.co/iTrkRWoot0

⭐️TNFI caused a 2❎ 🔽mean ActiveMASEI score compared to secukinumab
⭐️ 🔽PASI and DLQI score more in TNFI than Secukinumab
🔰Superiority of TNFi versus secukinumab in regards to active enthesitis
