Will #PAD4 levels predict pts w #CCP positive #arthralgia who will develop #RA?
Leeds study - 79 at risk pts
PAD4 levels may predicting #rheumatoid #arthritis development

At ACR Convergence 2025, abstract 1039 entitled, “Global Cost-Effectiveness and Equity in CAR-T Cell Therapy for Rheumatoid Arthritis” adds a critical dimension to the growing enthusiasm around cellular therapies in autoimmune disease.

Meta analysis evaluating age specific incidence across multiple registries (n=882)
Incidence 9.3 for women & 1.4 for men per 100k person-years
1. Wider distribution than I would have guessed
2. Much less age-dependency for men

Phase 1 study of CAR-Treg in difficult to treat RA
4/6 pts had 50% reduction in TJC/SJC, no CYC/fludrabine required & good prelim safety data
CAR-T remains exciting, but less of the "totally magical everyone cured" stuff we saw w/initial CAR-T reports

"Achieving good control of joint disease activity is probably the key objective of treatment of patients with RA-ILD"
- Gregory McDermott (Epi Abstracts, #2662)
Totally agree with this! SARD guidelines recommendingn drugs with mediocre activity in RA was surprising

Excited about this target trial emulation in RA-ILD
Compared to RTX, NO significant difference in hospitalization/transplant/death for JAK, ABA, IL6 or TNF
Trends toward ABA and JAK looking better than RTX
Need trials for sure, but I like this project a lot

#2686 Using HR-pQCT, researchers tracked bone changes in RA & PsA. Seropositive RA showed worst bone density & microstructure, worsening with disease activity. TNFi, RTX & BARI improved MCP bone density, highlighting the impact of inflammation and treatment. @RheumNow #ACR25

Will CAR-Treg Rx be helpful in active #refractory #rheumatoid #arthritis?
Early data n=6 treated w low dose (3 per arm), ongoing and doses will escalate
Improvemt in #clinical #disease #activity
less inflammation on #synovial #biopsies 3 pts

GLP-1 RA vs DPP4i & risk of rheumatic disease: propensity score matched cohort study using TriNetX
🔹 Lower incidence of OA, RA & gout w/ GLP-1 RA
🔹 No significant differences for PsA, SSc, axSpA, or SLE

Using Medicare data to emulate real-world RA-ILD trials, investigators compared RTX vs ABA, TOC, JAKi & TNFi
No sig differences in mortality, resp, hospitalisation or lung transplant across groups, suggesting other b/tsDMARDs may be as safe as RTX for RAILD

Abstract 2694: Neutrophil:Lymphocyte ratio (NLR)- a practical step towards clinical monitoring of interferon?
Log₂NLR significantly correlated with all three IFN signatures across patients with SLE, systemic sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and myositis

McDermott et al. Target trial emulation of different b/tsDMARDs in RA-ILD. RTX as SOC. No significant differences seen in hospitalisation or death. Trends to abatacept and JAKi looking better... @RheumNow #ACR25 Abstr#2662 #ACRBest https://t.co/ghHEKztvgz

#PD1 Ab looks good and safe in active RA
Rosnilimab, a Selective and Potent Depleter of Pathogenic T
Many failed several Rx already
No safety signals compared to another PD1i
Proof of benefit in biospecimens too!

#2661 In >5000 veterans with RA-ILD, 8 distinct FVC trajectories were identified. >1/2showed a progressive decline (≥0.7%/yr). These progressive patterns predicted higher mortality & respiratory hospitalisations, underscoring major disease heterogeneity. @RheumNow #ACR25
