#EULAR2024 OP0187 Can we identify a subgroup of #lupus patients at the outset who may benefit from early intensive therapies inc biologics? Data from an inception cohort showed low complement & cSLEDAI=>9 were assoc w increased risk of intensive therapy need/Tx failure @RheumNow https://t.co/jmahjcqom3

A fantastic tool LupusGPT by @LupusEurope for our patients to help self-manage #SLE was launched yesterday. Building on information from Lupus100 & supplemented by scientific data and relevant guidelines. I have tried it and worked well. Please disseminate https://t.co/a1qXGZyRE6 https://t.co/LTQM6A8Zq3

#EULAR2024 OP0206 In a cohort study, of pts with #lupus nephritis, 81% tapered IS ~32 mths post-renal response. Of this, 17% flared. Strategies for safe tapering: ensure CR is achieved, low SLEDAI-2K at 12mths, low SLEDAI-2K & on HCQ at the time of tapering initiation @RheumNow https://t.co/hAMAdsL7Jn

#EULAR2024 POS0152 How prevalent is severe refractory #lupus? Multicentre cohort in Asia defined this as SLEDAI-2K=>10 + on GC + immunosuppressant. One in 7 met this definition, assoc w high activity & low T2T achievement. Useful for sample size calc for clinical study @RheumNow https://t.co/bq4gxX7kjI

#EULAR2024 POS0191 Development and validation of plasma biomarkers to predict #lupus flare in the next 12 weeks. Quick turnover results. Need to focus on steps to bring these novel tools from bench to clinical practice @RheumNow https://t.co/64EppGI7bv

#EULAR2024 OP0089 Promising data from Phase 2 RCT on dual blockade depletion & BAFF-R-i, Ianalumab in #lupus. After 24 wks double-blind, sustained response (SRI-4 + Pred ≤5mg/d or ≤ BL dose) was seen in IAN-IAN group while PBO-IAN improved in open label phase at 48wks @RheumNow https://t.co/MUo76ii4vB

#EULAR2024 OP0059 Propensity match scoring of 179 pts w #lupus nephritis in AURA & AURORA1 vs ALMS. Triple therapy (voclosporin + MMF2g/d + low dose GC) led to earlier, greater reduction in proteinuria, & improved safety profile vs dual (MMF3g/d or Cyclo + High dose GC) @RheumNow https://t.co/UdcuaRTtzC

#EULAR2024 OP0017 If one target isn’t enough, why not two! Open label Phase I showed a double-pronged approach, compound BCMA-CD19 CAR Tcells (cCAR) improved clinical response, autoabs elimination & minimal infection in severe refractory #lupus nephritis @RheumNow #EULARBEST https://t.co/6MPHZKxKTB
