URAT1 inhibitors look like the way to go in Gout!
Presented in multiple abstracts at #EULAR2025

🦵🏻SAP-001, a novel uricosuric targeting a non-URAT1 renal transporter, lowered sUA <6 mg/dL in up to 79% of patients with refractory #gout on b/g xanthine oxidase inhibitor. >50% on 60 mg/day reached sUA <3 mg/dL.
💊Potential new oral ULT option.

What do we do when we see Rx signed of CPPD in RA pts? Do these pts have different trajectory?
Rx Retro study 388 patients RA
18% at least one sign CPPD
ns diff between seeonegative and seropositive pts
RA+CPPD group was
-older
-higher comorbidity score
-more likely to be https://t.co/DaW5DZoDzF

Gout flares are associated with cardiovascular events. Treating gout to target serum urate level prevents flares, but whether such treatment can also prevent cardiovascular events is unknown.

Wednesday was Day One at EULAR 2025 in Barcelona. Thousands from around the world gathered, eager to reunite at this international educational forum. Below are a few of my favorites from Day 1.

What’s worse for infection in GCA: tail end steroid taper, or a JAK inhibitor?
This is exactly SELECT-GCA in the second 6mo. What happened?
upa skews better on serious infection, worse on HZ
JAKi might have infection risk, but not like steroids. OP0057 #EULAR2025 @RheumNow https://t.co/FigxviOW3e

Can lowering serum urate also lower CV risk? In >116k patients w/ #gout, achieving SU <360 µmol/L in 12m ↓ 5yr MACE risk (HR 0.89, pooled Δsurvival +1.4%). Greater effect in >65s. Gout management = CV prevention?
