Do not be tempted to stop MTX or other DMARDs perioperatively! They probably help rather than harm #EULAR2020 https://t.co/jb4ZuZlqSu

RA pt not responding to a 1st biologic; what you predict in a Head to Head - Abatacept vs Upadacitinib?

#EULAR2020 #op0225 sub study of OPAL Balance: withdrawal of MTxdoes not negatively impact Tofa efficacy in PsA. At 6 mo deltaPASDAS 0.229 (0.079) for tofa mono & 0.q138 (0.081) for tofa+mtx. LFT elevation more common in combination arm @RheumNow https://t.co/NO1agViScD

#EULAR2020 #fri0505 Still’s pts who are able to achieve remissions w/longer itnervals btw tocilizumab infusions & lower dose of prednisone more likely to successfully withdraw Toci. Time to symptom recurrence in relapse group 7.8 mo. Older pts more likely to relapse @RheumNow

@Janetbirdope @eular_org @RheumNow @CRASCRRheum @earlyarthritis Good question. I suspect it may be a class effect but would be good to see H2H btw JAKs one day. If selective JAK 1 inhibition provides more, less or same efficacy is still not clear to me

Don’t forget significant fibrosis with ILD has +RCT with nintedanib INBUILD study. Lots of buzz of RA ILD where MTX is OK, TNFi may have more ILD than other bDMARDs, biomatkers KL-6 @eular_org OP0038 #EULAR2020 @CRASCRRheum https://t.co/OihF3LmNYQ

NPSLE is more than a headache! probs with dx, uncertain Rx, overlap with common probs - infection, pain, fibromyalgia, drug side effects, etc. Spectrum in NPSLE just like SLE has a spectrum of cutaneous findings T Huizanga discusses @eular_org #EULAR2020 @RheumNow @CRASCRRheum https://t.co/sdw0xavWBq
