OP0140 at #EULAR2021: ➡️Obs, prospect Nordic study characterized axSpA pts w/ high BASDAI + ASDAS & multiple bDMARD use (indicating difficult to tx dz) ➡️1 in 10 received at least 3 bDMARDs *⃣Multiple switchers were more often F, had higher b/l dz activity, & psoriasis @Rheumnow https://t.co/syq0szVWKe

Baseline Vitamin D 😎☀️correlated with biologic response in RA pts. ⭐️EULAR good response: 19.6% Vit D >20 vs 4.2%⬇️Vit D ⭐️Remission: 14.4% ⬆️Vit D vs 3.2% ⬇️Vit D Abs#POS0100 #EULAR2021 @RheumNow

No clear winner here. The majority would use #IL23 inhibitors as either 2nd or 3rd line bDMARDs and for #psoriaticarthritis with severe #psoriasis. Thank you for participating in the polls #EULAR2021 @RheumNow https://t.co/b8wzaRVTqw

Rituximab in PMR. Intriguing proof of concept (SB?) RCT (1:1, total n=47 (recent dx 38/relapsing 9)) 17w rapid PNL taper ritux 1g x1 21w: steroid-free remission: 48% v 21% PNL ≤5mg/d: 100% v 54% effect mainly from recent dx pts We do need options!

HUR-BIO real life data, PsA pts started bDMARDs w/in 18 mo of dx vs almost 3x later in RA pts (tended to remain on csDMARDs.) This distinction may be explained by synthetic DMARDs on activity differences between the RA & PsA. Abstract #POS0633 #EULAR2021 https://t.co/VkkF28jm2f https://t.co/IkfGdZYNY3

Poster #POS0633 detailed HUR-BIO PsA pts started bDMARDs w/in 18 months of dx vs, on ave, 3x longer to start bDMARDs in RA pts in real life data. What do you drugs do you start in your PsA pts after dx? Feel free to detail me below! #EULAR2021 @RheumNow
