Adherence to TNFi follows different trajectories
Cluster 1: “moderate then high” 51%
Cluster 2: “moderate then low” 20%
Cluster 3: “low adherence, to discontinuation” 18%
Cluster 4: “low then high adherence” 11%
Most demographic & clinical features CAN NOT predict trajectory! https://t.co/4wLg6b70Kl

The incidence of MACEs at 8 years is low in AS patients treated with NSAIDs. Study of 22929 patients, NSAIDs (SHR: 0.40 [0.32-0.49], p<0.001) and anti-TNFs (SHR: 0.61 [0.47-0.81], p<0.001) associated with a lower risk of MACE, Fakih O, Abst#POS0301, #EULAR2023 @RheumNow https://t.co/i5GZMcJwyO

What about a new oral drug in active #rheumatoid #arthritis vs #JAKi #Tofacitinib? TLL-018 a potent JAK1/TYK2 inhibitor was compared with #Tofa and dose ranging of 10, 20, 30 mg of TLL-018 and many Pts w past TNFi and w JAKi. High dose won #EULAR2023 @RheumNow @eular_org LB0001 https://t.co/UXhT7LV1oD

Day 3 was a sunny warm day in Milan at the 2023 EULAR Congress meeting. Here are a few of my favorite abstracts from today.

JAKi use did not increase CV risk compared to TNF, no difference between Bari and Tofa, non significant increased IRR in patients >65 years, Merel Opdam, Abst#OP0221 #EULAR2023 @RheumNow https://t.co/Pu5X8RHJOY

Malignancy in real world datasets:
do we see differences between DMARDs - particularly JAKi, with ORAL Surveillance in mind?
RABBIT German data (limited risk window):
Point estimates slightly up vs TNFi, esp in high CV risk pts
but magnitude not big

Just a reminder: nr-axSpA isn’t destined to become r-axSpA/AS. Life is more complicated than that.
Between the natural history and TNFi, very small conversion rate post-10y. Of course, whatever the x-rays, it can still disable though

TNFi & Disease activity-guided dose optimization in RA⬇️prog of ADA or ETA daily dose (100%66%50%0%)
10yrs followup in 170pts
⭐️74% tapered until full discontinuation
⭐️Median time to restart 8 mo
⭐️21% never restarted!
What's lacking? % of recovery

CareRA trial:
3 months addition of LEF vs. ETA in pts resistant to COBRA-Slim regimen (MTX 15 mg/w + step-down prednisone):
After 2 years, no difference in dis control but those who received ETA early were treated more frequently w/ csDMARD monotherapy #EULAR23 @RheumNow OP0129 https://t.co/YwSoZWi375

The risk of demyelination with TNFi is low but real. Slight increase of risk was found in male RA patients. The small number of events is reassuring. Careful consideration is recommended in individuals at highest risk of demyelinating diseases Abst#OP0135 #EULAR2023 @RheumNow https://t.co/YT6ZrJTjU0
