Study on enthesitis response to biologic Rx
⭐️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

Dr Elliott presenting on US assessment of enthesitis with TNFi vs secukinumab. Surprisingly TNFi showed a more marked decrease in US enthesitis. Abstr#1356 #ACR21 @RheumNow https://t.co/XXgYMgkMyP

Effect of BMI on PRO treatment response in PsA. Increasing BMI associated with lower response. More pronounced in TNFi than IL-17 or JAKi. Abstr#1327 #ACR21 @RheumNow https://t.co/qhgVlW72uM

In this study,
⭕AS pts w/>=2 #comorbidities were associated w/ poorer outcome measures after 2 yrs of ffup vs. pts w/ no comorbids
⭕Pts w/ >=2 comorbids were likely to dc 1st anti-TNF
Address comorbidities, ⬆ chances of better outcomes & QoL

As old saying but updated goes: Wise man/woman/prefer not to answer says IF you STOP drugs they usually STOP working. True with TNFi in most diseases (RA, axSpA, etc). Also tue with #plaquenil in large #SLE study #ACR21 abst#0959 https://t.co/O6Ejg5sjjK
A remaining challenge for clinicians is the ability to delay, if not completely stop, structural progression in patients with axSpA, whether they are diagnosed with radiographic (r-axSpa) or non-radiographic (nr-axSpA) disease.

⭐️C-OPTIMISE:
Early, active AxSpA on certilozumab (CZP) 200mg q2w x 48w. Then, if remission, randomized to CZP q2w vs q4w vs PBO x 48w
➡️No flare in PBO BUT w/ ↑:
*️⃣ASDAS + BASDAI
*️⃣CRP + fecal calprotectin
Thus, keep some dose of CZP on!

What to do if pt on a TNFi develops cancer? Can you safely restart TNFi later? Depends on cancer, timing - how long ago was cancer, Rx and patient preference. Data diff from RABBIT registry vs British bio registry @RheumNow #ACR21 #ACRBest 7S413 Have a look https://t.co/q9SFKlFJzg

Does concomitant SJS affect tx effectiveness in RA?
Abst#0839 suggest yes!
➡️RA+SjS have an inferior response to TNFi than RA patients w/o SjS
BUT, RA/SJS pts w/ longer RA dz duration & ↑ DAS28 + HAQ-scores.
What's your clinical experience with this?

A worthwhile point:
despite historic concerns, in the modern era TNFi can used safely & well in HIV pts
18y follow-up, all pts high CD4
(their starting criteria: CD4>200, VL <60,000)
no reported opportunistic infx
good arthritis response
