Deodhar et al. Bimekizumab (IL-17A/Fi) in nr-axSpA. Efficacy shown across all outcomes. Confirms bimekizumab works across spectrum of axSpA (not surprisingly). @RheumNow #ACR22 Abstr#0544 https://t.co/XVGBgBQpTH https://t.co/39zW5Ex9xh

Proft @ProftDr et al. NSAIDs+golimumab no better than golimumab monotherapy in reducing spinal progression in AS. But... for high risk patients there may be some benefit - see figure. @RheumNow #ACR22 Abstr#0546 https://t.co/xo9Uy6aX71 https://t.co/vZgaoeEQn4

Across 9 trials of Upadacitinib in RA, PsA and AS, 40%–50% of patients had ≥ 2 CV risk factors, ≥ 65 years 6%–23%. Rates of adjudicated MACE and VTE with UPA were infrequent, consistent with background rates in RA, PsA, and AS Abst 0510 https://t.co/HDkQ6ELnAy #ACR22 @RheumNow https://t.co/SRJYdFFNIQ
