Phase 2 DAHLIA study in Sjogrens Anti-neonatal Fc receptor an “nipocalimab” w/remarkably encouraging results clinESSDAI significantly better at wk24, notably met QOL domains as well Finally getting good news in SjS! #ACR24 @RheumNow #ACRbest Abst#2527 https://t.co/e3uQmqJZ1o
Let me start by confessing something embarrassing: the immune system is just too complex for me to understand. I suspect the onslaught of new drugs with new mechanisms at ACR 2024 may have left many of you feeling similarly. This may be particularly true for the TYK/JAK/STAT signaling pathway, where each agent has a slightly-different combination of binding affinity to various JAK and TYK signaling dimers. In this article I want to share some

If a mother has had TNFi during pregnancy, can a baby have a live oral rotavirus vaccine (usually at 2mo)?
This claims data suggests no increase in diarrhoea
Adds to similarly reassuring 🇨🇦prospective cohort data https://t.co/2Tz9zRhPjz
Vaccinate away!

We use steroids carefully during pregnancy, and with good reason.
SLR from @eular_org Task Force shows a dose-dependent effect of glucocorticoids on preterm birth.
(of course, stable autoimmune disease hopefully means avoiding steroids altogether)

Shifting Trends in Initial RA Treatment Approaches
A recent study by Sparks et al (Abstract #0509) reveals evolving trends in disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD) usage for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) over two decades in the U.S.

Abst#2413 SLE Cohort of > 2900 pts over 50 yrs - Prevalence of proteinuria at the time of SLE dx has not changed over the decades. Prevalence of proteinuria also did not change at 5 and 10 yrs after dx. Earlier use of HCQ has not led to a ⬇️in lupus nephritis. @RheumNow #ACRbest

Nice data from the OTIS Autoimmune Disease in Pregnancy Project re: certolizumab-exposed pregnancies:
- spontaneous loss rate comparable to non-disease controls
- no stillbirths
- preterm similar to disease controls
Plenty positive for CZP in pregnancy!

A study exploring the benefits of treating RA patients to remission after achieving low disease activity (LDA).
Key findings:
- Among patients initially at LDA, achieving remission (CDAI ≤2.8) led to significantly better functional outcomes and reduced durable medical equipment… https://t.co/SNPKlRieur https://t.co/YIQNMf3Oap

We know most preexisting autoimmune disease is very mangaeable when checkpoint inhibitors are needed.
So great to see that, in the VA, autoimmune disease pts largely haven't missed out on potentially lifesaving cancer immunotherapy.
Keep on reassuring!
