      Once we add adalimumab in MTX-IR RA, can we dial down MTX & still keep control? New data - now in East Asian pts (with already low MTX) says often yes, without ⬆️ADAb. Obviously RA control 1st/2nd/3rd, but prob doesn’t have to be MTX 20 forever in everyone #EULAR2022 @RheumNow https://t.co/aZ0bsgY7dC

      MIRACLE (love it!) study. High (max tolerated up to 25mg) vs low dose (6-8mg) MTX in combo with ADA in MTX-IR. Low dose non-inferior with better safety. Japanese population so may not be generalisable. @RheumNow #EULAR2022 OP0062 https://t.co/l3CfzzM7mi https://t.co/lkjuoqLY56

      Krijbolder et al on MTX to prevent RA in clinically suspect arthralgia. No effect on arthritis free survival (80 vs 82%). Some delay in RA onset in high-risk group. But there was a sustained improvement in symptoms in MTX group @RheumNow #EULAR2022 OP0070 https://t.co/0CPIP51yQd https://t.co/kWNmw1YzrH

      NORD-STAR substudy looking at anticoagulant effects. Important as RA assoc. ⬆️DVT/PE. DMARDs improve haemostatic imbalance, with bDMARDs stronger effect than csDMARD (may relate to better disease control with this) @RheumNow #EULAR2022 OP0059 https://t.co/TKwAZMOZjY https://t.co/IazrfD7z7k

      Combination tx of NSAIDs and TNFi (celecoxib and golimumab) did not show significant superiority compared to TNFi alone in slowing radiographic progression for treatment of radiographic axSpA. There was a numerical reduction however. #EULAR2022 @RheumNow #ABSTOP0018 https://t.co/gUZAwd92dK

      #EULAR2022 RA updated reccs w/ minor changes: start MTX+GC, reduce GC rapidly, JAKi are recc only for pts w/o risk factors for CV or malignant dz (not sure I agree with this last one if the JAKi is the best drug for the pt and there are little options avail) @rheumnow https://t.co/CXyyCi6LVI
