Spondyloarthritis
The management of axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) continues to evolve with the integration of artificial intelligence and digital health technologies. At #EULAR2025, the Bechterew-App Trial (LB0002) presented important new data on Axia, a novel AI-powered digital therapeutic developed for axSpA.

67% of HCPs knew of EULAR’s CVD risk guidelines in RMDs—but few could apply them.
✅ Only 13% linked SLE control to CVD risk
🚫 0% picked correct BP/statin use in RA/AS/PsA
Barriers? Time, knowledge, and local guideline gaps.

📱 Axia, a digital therapeutic for #axSpa, led to significant improvements in BASDAI, BASFI & ASQoL in a 12-week RCT.
ASAS20: 51% vs 9%; ASAS40: 23% vs 3%.
Promising app-based intervention comprising individualised exercise, pt education & disease Mx.

Self-management of rheum disease is ripe for apps, gamification. How well does it work though?
This app (Axia) in axSpA was basically as good as a biologic.
Maybe you downplay non-pharm management, prob because we don’t do it well. This changes that

RA is worst with temperature rising/ climate change.
However SpA has the opposite effect!
