Crude drug retention at 1 year was 65% for JAKi, significantly lower than for other modes of action (74%) and TNFi (77%). These results are driven by the severity of the disease of patients on JAKi compared to other MOA. Aymon R Abst#1692 #ACR23 @RheumNow https://t.co/LPDpWdjoLg https://t.co/Ztaz94omd9

Obs study, bDMARDs & malignancy
TNFi w/lower risk than ABA/RTX/IL6i & numerically lower than JAKs
I'm a little skeptical... KM curves diverged w/~45 days, seems implausible?
Agree w/first author, possible channeling bias

Sendaydiego et al. Comparative cancer safety b/tsDMARDs. 37,026 patient database cohort study. Compared to TNFi, RTX HR 2.2 (1.5, 3.3) ABA HR 1.7 (1.3-2.4), JAKi HR 1.3 (0.9-1.9). Abstr#1678 #ACR23 @RheumNow https://t.co/bTNtaNJrln https://t.co/qQBM2F2q8N

Ritux (OR 2.2), ABA (OR 1.3), JAKi (OR 1.3) significantly increase risk of cancer vs. TNFi
Cohort of 37000+ RA pts starting bio/tsDMARDs (379 incident cancers)
True biologic effect or confounding by indication in a generally more comorbid population?

#ACR23 Abstr#0840 Could combined JAK1/Tyk2 fare better than Tofacitinib in D2T #RA? Phase 2 RCT showed impressive results; > %50 pts in the higher doses TLL-018 arms achieved ACR50 vs TOF (42%). TOF non-responders at WK12 who switched to TLL-018 improved too @RheumNow #ACRBest https://t.co/Yw6Pvb2PH8

Starting soon! Join us tonight at 6pm PT/ 9pm ET for our daily #ACR23 recap. https://t.co/xIBJlYCMQM
Cancer risk minimisation is a high priority for people with rheumatic diseases, as it is for the general population. Tumor necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi) have a long history of association with cancer risk discussions. An oral presentation by Suarez-Almazor et al provided more supportive data on using TNFi in this population.
Our reporters have been prolific in finding the hot abstracts, those that were most attended or those that are getting the most buzz on social media. Here are RheumNow's #ACRbest abstract reports from Monday, November 13, 2023 at #ACR23, covering The Great Debate, SGLPT2 inhibitors in SLE, the SMART Study of MTX, TMP/SMX Prophylaxis, RA-ILD & TNF Inhibitors, cancer research and more.
