ADACTA & MONARCH both showed IL6i monoRx > TNFi monoRx for RA in DBRCTs.
What about in real-world data?
Looking at CorEvitas, less so
LDA: aOR 0.99
MCID in CDAI: 1.06
Even without MTX, both great drug classes for RA
Equally so?

In Australia, there's free choice of originator vs biosimilar for etanercept.
Real-world data shows exactly what you'd expect over >48 months - and sometimes it's what you expect that's exactly what you want to see...

#ACR21 Abst#0910 by @rheum_cat. Do TNFi ⬆️ risk of incident HTN in AxSpa?
⭐️PSOAS cohort: Prosp study from 2003-2018
▶️When adjusted for confounders (obesity, disease activity, NSAID use), insufficient evidence to show ⬆️ risk of HTN w TNFi

TNFi + JIA = watch the skin! A nearly 3fold increase of paradoxal psoriasis in JIA patients exposed to TNFi reported in the CARRA registry w/ incidence rate the highest on children receiving adalimumab.

@JointMD shares his thoughts on IL23, IL17, TNF inh- where/when/how we might use them. @RheumNow #acr21 https://t.co/mVw05iFPhF
The opening of ACR2 Convergence was a hit for all who signed up and viewed in. The day included the presidential address by outgoing president Dr. David Karp (UT Southwestern) and a keynote talk and interview with Dr. Seema Yasmin (Stanford).
The Year in Review featured a clinical vs basic science Brigham and Women’s Hospital faceoff between its two faculty, Dr. Karen Costenbader and Dr. Michael Brenner.

2 year study of AxSpA pts in clinical remission who tapered TNFi.
⭐️52% successfully tapered to either 2/3, 1/2 or 1/3 dose
⭐️Baseline physician global score independent predictor of successful tapering

👉🏻 Biologics and breast milk
👉🏻 Good vaccine response with TNFi (like with covid vaccines )
👉🏻 ustekimumab seems safe in pregnancy
👉🏻 Tofacitinib/ small molecules may cross placenta/ be in breast milk ➡️ contraindicated in preg/BF https://t.co/qk3sLR4QHz

Park & colleagues compared treatment persistence across abatacept, TNFi, and JAKi in dual seropositive RA patients using Medicare database
- Users of abatacept were more persistent to index time of 12 months and showed longer time to discontinuation https://t.co/0huE7zZjLq

#ClinicalPearl What lasts longer/⬆️retention in sero+ RA: Abatacept or TNFi or JAKi? #ACR21 abst#0463 @RheumNow Adjusting for confounding incl line of Rx / past bio Rx, #abatacept wins. But data not stratified for bio naive or exposed. Not sure if that would alter results https://t.co/1dEQncwPQF

We should aim for early treatment and good retention in ax-SpA to prevent structural evolution. >12 months of TNFi treatment in the previous 2 years associated w/ ⬇️ radiographic progression of SIJ in r- and nr-axSpA in GESPIC, #Abst0174 @RheumNow #ACR21 https://t.co/2V1q4dUwFO https://t.co/lxQU4zAP1I

Experts (Drs. M Clowse, Sammaratino) limit mAb TNFi 1 month b/f delivery or extend dosing. But, they do dose again for flares. Risk for infection is low based on the PIANO registry. Postpartum, they restart the meds w/in 1 week (vag delivery), 2 weeks C/S @rheumnow #pregnancy
