The new IL-17A/F inhibitor, bimekizumab, was comparable to current established therapies in active #AnkylosingSpondylitis. Check our NMA poster today. #ACR22 #SpA #medtwitter @TheBold_MD @cplch19 @UTSWRheum @ACRheum @RheumNow @DrCassySims https://t.co/vxa05r0GvS

#ACR22 Abstr#0359 Is 2021 DORIS remission attainable in #lupus? Pooled analyses of Anifrolumab RCTs showed this was met in ~10% patients in treatment group vs 3% placebo. Faster and sustained too @Rheumnow https://t.co/5MY2O8i2gA https://t.co/PUeUY25JZl

#ACR22 Raynaud’s:
💡Primary RP is the most common
💡Autoimmune RP is rare! Other causes more common: metabolic, trauma, vibration, Buergers.
💡NMA showed that both CCB and PDE5i reduced frequency and severity of symptoms
💡Supportive measures are cornerstone!

"One more thing you need in a story-- Epiphany, where the soul of the commonest object seems radiant" - Dr. Verghese. His #epiphany occurred in the #HIV era helping a dying patient come to terms w/death; he discovered “The doctor can heal without curing.” #ACR22 @rheumnow https://t.co/Yh3SU4AMIZ

GCA with visual symptoms:
do you hit the pulse iv methylpred button? Why?
260 pts from Lund 🇸🇪
no doubt some channelling, but:
IVMP no better and more steroid exposure/toxicity
This adds to existing doubts. Time to seriously question this practice?

The management of RA patients with a history of cancer continues to be an area of concern. General recommendations are to treat patients with a history of solid organ cancer as no different to any other RA patient. Recently, the ORAL-Surveillance study demonstrated evidence of a greater risk of cancer with tofacitinib than with TNF inhibitors. In this setting, two posters both reassure and raise a new cause for concern.

Many hoped rituximab would be the panacea for all with IgG4-RD.
Consistent story: it's not.
In this European data:
- only 56% in remission at 12m
- pancreato-hepato-biliary slightly better, RPF mid-range
This story isn't over. We need other options

Interested in this late-breaker, comparative study of secukinumab (IL17) vs adalimumab (TNF) in AxSpa
No difference in radiographic progression at 1 year - in line with my perception of relative equality for these treatments
Need long term data!

Only 4 minutes to discuss adherence in #SLE. Implementation of discussion if <80% of meds filled. Academic docs - 20/24 used + reinforcement, validated in 17 Pts, 11/24 asked open ended ?s. Pts thought it was right timing. ?does it change behaviour- ? Abst0063 @RheumNow #ACR22 https://t.co/UQbRgw5Emj

All monster stories end with an unexpected award: A new order
@cuttingforstone at #ACR22 tells the monster story of #covid
“How will history review our story?”
The science will get an A+, but we failed to learn the lessons of history
All was predictable through history
