Withdrawal of Immunosuppressant and Low-dose Steroids in IgG4-RD Patients with Stable Disease
146 pts - 3 Grps
1: withdraw GC+IM 2:withdraw GC but maintain IM; 3: maintain GC+IM
The maintenance of IMs, with or without low-dose GC, superior to withdraw

#ACR23 Late-Breaking Abstr#L19 IA steroid can help osteoarthritis knee pain but effect & duration are variable. Phase 3 RCT: improvement in ADP & WOMAC pain favouring TLC5999 (liposomal modification of DEX) vs PBO at all timepoints inc. after repeated injection @RheumNow #ACRBest https://t.co/xUhoFHPExr

Would intraarticular steroids for knee OA be better with a sustained release formulation?
ph3, TLL599 (liposomal delivery dexamethasone) vs normal dex vs placebo
some gains over normal dex
well tolerated
New options always welcome in OA!

#ACR23 Late-Breaking Abstr#L20 Phase 3 RCT in China: Telitacicept (BAFF-APRIL-i) in MTX-IR #RA met ACR20 response vs PBO.
+ve: less radiographic damage
-ve: lower rate ACR50 (21%), homogenous population, no H2H active comparator
Unclear its place in current Mx @RheumNow https://t.co/SAc4B1aRD1

Telitacicept (BlyS/APRIL inhibitor) ph3 in RA
wholly in China, after SLE approval there (SLE trial now w global sites)
Efficacy okay, no better than other b/tsDMARDs
What's the hook here, in a crowded RA market incl biosimilars?
Safety does look good though

Interesting study by Dr LWGarcia et al:
👉IFN-a serum levels predicted failure to respond to tx 2 years after a flare in pts w/ LN
👉Pts w/⬆️BL IFN-a levels had greater risk of having 2 or more subsequent flares

Interesting late breaker!
Telitacicept - recombinant fusion protein targeting BLyS and APRIL for treatment of RA
Phase 3 study - at wk 24, reached ACR20, ACR50, DAS28-ESR, no radiographic progression
No difference in safety profile compared to placebo

Tommasi et al. MTX (vs SSZ) lowers BP in RA in RCT. At 6 months, significant reduction in SBP (mean difference -4.0±10.8 mmHg, p=0.038), MAP (mean difference -4.3±17.9 mmHg, p=0.023). Abstr#2151 #ACR23 @RheumNow https://t.co/wAX3dCztxH https://t.co/mPG5TdeHTu
