An early favorable response to TNFi initiation indicates better long-term success in RA. Assess early and adjust treatment accordingly.

In this study by Dr CArriens et al, there was no difference between the vaccine response to Influenza by either HAI or Ab levels in Anifrolumab-treated pts.
AEs - mild, moderate
No serious aEs

Mortality Risk After Stopping Glucocorticosteroids (GC) in RA.
In a study of 28,078 RA patients:
Mortality risk from CVD ↑ 7.5%/year of GC use; ↓ 1.3%/year after stopping.
Mortality risk from infections ↑ 6.8%/year of GC use; ↓ 4.9%/year after stopping.
Risks normalize 1.5–10… https://t.co/i6cKet1EEV https://t.co/ClMjIly20E

VACIMRA Study showed timing matters for Methotrexate and Pneumococcal Vaccine in RA.
RA patients vaccinated with PCV13 1 month before MTX initiation had higher responder rates at 1 month:
88% (ELISA) vs. 75%
96% (OPA) vs. 88%
At 12 months, responses remained stronger in… https://t.co/bSbIazsRtG

Weinblatt et al. AMPLIFIED trial. No difference in response rates of RA to adalimumab or abatacept based on dual seropositivity/shared epitope status. Fits with my priors and refutes a previous pilot study. @RheumNow #ACR24 Abstr#2671 https://t.co/OUwnlsP6jU https://t.co/RBN6ivSKDr

Dumoulin et al. 4 year results of TREAT EARLIER trial of 1 year MTX in CSA. In high risk ACPA- group, reduced risk of RA development, 8.6% vs 29%, HR 0.27. No difference at 4 years in ACPA+ or low risk ACPA- @RheumNow #ACR24 Abstr#2672 #ACRbest https://t.co/S2yJm196UV https://t.co/bJ9JySteUs

Reported safety signals, at odds with the efficacy of these medications, have left rheumatology clinicians in a difficult position when considering when during a patient’s treatment course and in which patients, specifically, JAKi should be used. Two abstracts from ACR convergence 2024 further contribute to our understanding of this potential risk profile.

Is Pregnancy Truly the Solution for RA?
Pregnancy is perhaps the oldest treatment in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and has been associated with a natural improvement in disease control in 50-75% of patients. Others, however, are not as successful with unchanged disease activity or… https://t.co/MesVIUl0fC https://t.co/760i5znmeu
