⭐️RCT by the French showing non-inferiority of spacing TNFi in r-axSpA pts w/ LDA (BASDAI<4 x 6mo)
⭐️ 88% in spacing group remained w/ LDA vs 91.5% in standard tx
⭐️ADA, CTZ, GOL, IFX spaced by 1w intervals. ETN by 3-4d & 1w. @RheumNow

Dr Lukas presents data showing possibility of tapering a range of TNF in AxSpA patients in remission 162/184 (88.0%) LDA in progressive spacing group vs 173/189 (91.5%) in continued at 1 year.@RheumNow #EULAR2021 Abstr#0138

Abst#OP0137 at #EULAR2021:
➡️TNFi use for at least 1 year decreased radiographic sacroiliitis progression in early AxSpA in this ten year multicenter study of the German Spondyloarthritis Inception cohort (GESPIC) .
➡️This effect becomes evident 2-4 years after tx.

tofa/bari in RA H2H vs TNFi comparative efficacy studies highlighted (more head-to-head studies please!) @karolinskainst OP0122 #EULAR2021 @RheumNow (also Swedish national registry data showed tofa/bari comparable to non-TNFi bDMARDs, but no photos allowed!) https://t.co/CUWlK2O94h

To clot or NOT? Real world data usually show no ⬆️ VTE in RA with #Jaki compares to other advanced therapies. Diff from high CV risk pts in Oral Surveillance where Tofacitinib had higher VTE vs TNFi @AbbVie symposium @eular_org #EULAR2021 @RheumNow Hard to reconcile diff risk. https://t.co/AWY2zZPSIb

Do you think JAKi cause VTE? @eular_org @RheumNow #EULAR2021
Many great presentations this week at EULAR 2021 will feature industry sponsored clinical trials and reports. Often these become the pivotal studies for regulatory approval and the annual congresses are their first look.
