How do we dose maintenance rituximab in AAV to optimise B cell depletion but minimise hypogammaglob? Drug levels may be the answer. In this cohort (n=61) trough >550ng/mL: all B cell depleted >1000ng/mL: all got hypogammaglob very interesting concept! #ACR20 ABST1438 @RheumNow https://t.co/0pcl0BW2Tv

Data from BIOBADASER 3 showed that there was a ⬇ in the incidence of S. pneumonia-related infxns in RA pts on b/tsDMARD after receiving the stepwise combined vax scheme (conj+PS) @RheumNow #ACR20 abs1465 #VaccinesWork https://t.co/KlestmKfaO

Are you talking RA patients about vaccination? Abst#1465 shows S pneumonia vaccinations decreases pna by nearly half in <65 yo, as well as effectiveness in elderly. Theme of day: approach ifn and CV risk are best rheum interventions! @Rheumnow #ACR20 https://t.co/ZilXfFWTUM
