Lots of talk about best bDMARDs in RA-ILD, but what about in RA-assoc bronchiectasis?
@Yuz6Yusof found rituximab had better 'lung survival' vs TNFi (similar baseline stats)
Something to consider in these difficult-to-treat pts?

#EULAR2020 Dr. V Ritschl:EULAR Task Force on Patient Adherance: 30-80% of pts do not adhere to Rx. resulting in ⬆️dz severity, pain, fatigue, depression, decreased in function, physical activity. HCPs should discuss adherance reg. & explore factors affecting adherance. @RheumNow

ENbrel works in long term for the few people left on the drug at 10 yrs with SpA. Enormous dropout. If you are still on Rx for a decade you are in the minority. Drop out of TNFi in SpA mirrors RA & PsA @RheumNow @eular_org @CRASCRRheum @earlyarthritis #EULAR2020 https://t.co/dLS2fw5uRP

Study in Norway reveals that the majority of the women w/ SpA were not treated with TNF inhibitors before or during pregnancy. Few on TNFi were continued on tx during pregnancy. #EULAR2020 @RheumNow https://t.co/t7B6pASeWQ https://t.co/BwU6RF5Qkn

Switching TNFi to VDZ in pts IBD-related SpA associated w/ articular exacerbation of SpA in 1 out of 4 patients within the first 5 months. New-onset MEM is also observed in up to 15% of patients with IBD treated with VDZ. #EULAR2020 @RheumNow https://t.co/ZVjZC7hvxs https://t.co/d1RT3GzB2b

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
