#EULAR2026 Abstr# OP06 9 TOGETHER-PsA: Adding tirzepatide to ixekizumab in #PsA + obesity achieved the primary composite (ACR50 + ≥10% weight loss) in 31.7% vs just 0.8% with IXE alone at 36 weeks (p<0.001). The first trial tackling PsA + obesity simultaneously @RheumNow https://t.co/0cDAj1y7OF

Abst# OP068: 68Ga-RGD PET/CT imaging detected subclinical synovitis in 35% of joints that were clinically silent in #PsA. Molecular imaging may reveal the true burden of joint disease before it declares clinically. @RheumNow #EULAR2026 #PsoriaticArthritis

Small interventional synovial biopsy precision medicine study
CD117 high pts n=15 = better response to IL17i or IL23i inhibition vs. TNFi w/
-DAPSA -13.5, -12.8 vs. -7.5 respectively
Higher BL levels of tissue inflammation in Responders vs. NR
More robust study design needed https://t.co/7jNff6lUJ6

Nail #PsA, hard to treat and often overlooked. APEX trial: guselkumab achieved 43% ↓ in nail severity score (mNAPSI) vs 16% worsening on placebo at wk 24, plus PASI 100 in ~39% vs 11%. IL-23 inhibition delivering where pts often struggle most. @RheumNow #EULAR2026 POS0471

In #PsA, obesity isn't just a comorbidity, it's a disease modifier. Pooled SPIRIT trials (n=1284): 43% had obesity. BMI≥30 vs normal: joint counts ↑, function ↓, fatigue ↑, CVD 55% vs 18%, HTN 52% vs 11%, DM 19% vs 3%. @RheumNow #EULAR2026 POS0460

Guselkumab in erosive #PsA: ACR20 68% vs 47% placebo, structural damage progression ↓ across subgroups regardless of sex, BMI, MTX use, or joint counts. Highest inflammation and erosion burden? Biggest benefit. IL-23i holds up where it matters most. @RheumNow #EULAR2026 POS0480

Not all "difficult-to-treat" #PsA definitions are equal. Real-world DEPAR cohort (n=885): 20% met GRAPPA complex-to-manage vs only 4% EULAR difficult-to-manage criteria. Definition choice determines who gets identified, and who gets left behind. @RheumNow #EULAR2026 POS0446
