Zhou et al. Phase 2 RCT of XKH004, IL17A/Fi in AxSpA. ASAS40 50.4% vs 25%. Slightly odd dose response variation, but maybe just noise. @RheumNow #ACR24 Abstr#1453 https://t.co/SsTSThFzro https://t.co/C9yK2G4tqB

Getting more data on using deucravacitinib for PsO/PsA manifestations
Impressive effect on scalp psoriasis (which often means a lot to patients)
Given how safe it is, it's increasingly tempting to use more of it in mild-mod PsA

Findings from Abstr#1436 reveal that cigarette smoking is not positively associated with radiographic progression in psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Current and past smokers showed a longer time to joint damage progression. This suggests a complex relationship that warrants further… https://t.co/ERsAKoivA4

Great table re:side effects of even low dose steroids in RA
Likely generalizes to other diseases ie PMR, SLE
P in prednisone stands for poison!

How do we prevent SLE flares requiring steroids?
Petri:
Background medication!
HCQ adherence is key
-check WB levels to measure
EULAR recs early addition of immunosuppress/biols
“Taper quickly, withdraw slowly”

Are biosimilar multi-switches an issue?
real world data: DANBIO 🇩🇰
biosimilar to biosimilar switch
having already had a switch prior ('previous ADAo') did not increase cessation
The risk of biosimilar switching on immunogenicity is greatly overstated
