Psoriatic arthritis
In this week's podcast, Drs. Artie Kavanaugh and Jack Cush present highlights from the virtual EULAR2020 meeting held June 3-6, 2020. Featured reports include the SELECT-CHOICE study, the EXCEED trial, Avacopan in AAV, BeST mortality outcomes, BLISS-LN study, biosimilars and tofa in systemic sclerosis.
These were my top abstracts from Thursday, 4th of June at EULAR 2020:

Every time a big scientific meeting ends I ask myself a question: how is it going to affect the way I treat my patients? This year the question pertains to management of axial spondyloarthropathies and psoriatic arthritis. Actually, this question has been brewing for several years now, but only now we get more data to form more or less feasible answer. So let’s see what EULAR 2020 has to offer.

#EULAR2020 #op0079 ASAS-MRI group offers updated definition of the structural lesions in SI joints in AxSpA:
-erosion in >=2 consecutive slices or in >=3 SIJ quadrants
- fat lesions w/depth >1cm in >=1SIJ quadrant
are high priority candidates @RheumNow https://t.co/EU1WWqJ4h3
