🧪 Can genetics predict TNFi response in PsA?
OUTPASS GWAS (n=329): High BMI, comorbidities & novel XKR4 locus linked to non-response at 6 months

🎗️ Do targeted therapies raise cancer risk in SpA?
French nationwide cohort (n=56,591): NO
In fact, prolonged exposure REDUCES risk (wHR 0.86), especially haematological.

💊 After TNFi failure in axSpA, switch to IL-17Ai or cycle TNFi?
ROC-SpA (Phase 4 RCT, n=300):
NO difference: ASAS40 15.2% vs 14.5% at week 24

❤️ Do biologics differ in MACE risk in PsA?
YES - JAKi highest risk after 2.5yrs vs TNFi/IL-17i/IL-23i in a retrospective cohort of 22,246pts.

DESIR Cohort 10-year data (OP0102): SIJ structural lesions in #axSpA progress slowly, but prior MRI bone marrow oedema predicts later structural damage. bDMARD exposure was associated with less erosion progression supporting early biologic treatment Abstr OP0102 @RheumNow

After TNFi secondary failure: does MOA switch beat TNFi cycling? UK RWD (n=155): yes for #PsA (76% vs 57% drug survival at 12m) and axSpA (80% vs 68%), but not RA. Yet 74% of axSpA pts still got another TNFi. Evidence vs practice gap in plain sight. @RheumNow #EULAR2026 POS0776

#OP0238: French SNDS cohort found longer exposure to targeted therapies in SpA (>6months) was assoc with a lower overall cancer risk vs shorter exposure, esp for haematologic malignancies. Data add to long-term safety evidence for targeted therapies in SpA. #EULAR2026 @RheumNow

After failure of a first TNFi in axSpA, #OP0235 from ROC-SpA trial found no superiority of switching to an IL-17A inhibitor over cycling to second TNFi. ASAS40 responses at Week 24 similar with both strategies, supporting individualised treatment decisions. #EULAR2026 @RheumNow

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

People with rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases (RMD) are at risk of a number of comorbidities, from cardiovascular diseases to cognitive impairment and fractures. The 2026 EULAR Congress showcased new data and ideas around various comorbidities and drug safety issues in people with an RMD – highlighting the need for integrated care. Here are five abstracts to consider.

Roc-SpA study
Active axSpA dse + inad response to TNFi ➡️switch or cycled
No significant diff in ASDAS40 at wk24 bet IL-17i & 2nd TNFi
Switching to IL-17i not superior to cycling to 2nd TNFi after inad. response to 1st TNFi
Shared decision is key

What if we let RA patients choose ttmt?
BACH RCT choice between Filgo / scTNFi vs. standard randomisation
55% JAKi vs 45% TNFi
Higher ttmt satisfaction 46 vs 33 p=0.012
Less ttmt switches 6 vs 15 p=0.026
Less AE reported
Better drug survival
Shared decision making is key! https://t.co/1YS0y6YUEH
