#OP0209 #EULAR2026 SPECIFI-RA
Balinatunfib, oral selective TNFR1 inhibitor designed to preserve TNFR2 signalling in RA. Phase 2b trial missed primary ACR20 endpoint, but 200mg QD arm showed signals for higher ACR50, ACR70 and DAS28 low disease activity & reduced IL-6. @RheumNow https://t.co/emxNQy0cPx

#EULAR2026 Recommendations: Vasculitis
-Confirm diagnosis with imaging and biopsy
- Start GC early but with taper plan
- For major flare again confirm dx and restart GC
- Consider IL-6 or UPA
- MTX may be option if biologics not available

Emapalumab in MAS secondary to stills disease
39 pts, median age 12, 2 pooled prospective, open label, single arm studies.
Endpoint complete resolution at week 8-. Around 60% and partial resolution nearly 100%
67% had concomitant anakinra

Our therapeutic armamentarium in RA keeps on growing. New studies and new molecules, new mechanisms of action or new ways of using old drugs are presented every year at conferences. But which are the ones who can have an impact on our practice? Here is my selection of 3 abstracts presented at EULAR 2026 that identify therapeutic strategies that are well worth keeping on our radar.

Window of opportunity in stills disease is early. With IL1 / IL6 agents
#sJIA and #AOSD are the same disease. - may need a standard new crieteria
IL18 measuremnet should be encouraged.

What to use in #RA #IL6i v #abatacept post #TNFi-IR?
H2H #TCZ v #Abatacept
Same on primary outcome
#CDAI change wk26
BUT
If #monoRx TCZ better
Better retention #TCZ
So you decide which is better! Equal v some advantages w #tocilizumab

Is there a ‘window
Of opportunity’ for Rx
#GCA w #IL6i
🤞
Obtain a better response
Rx GCA #GC
#TCZ
#Upadacitinib
#MTX
Study tries to answer if effects of #tocilizumab early vs >8wks is diff
N=471, 19% new GCA
Early vs late TCZ no dif
❎No
Not RCT

Few topics in rheumatology have reshaped prescribing behaviour as dramatically as the safety concerns surrounding JAK inhibitors following ORAL Surveillance and the subsequent FDA and EMA warnings.
