#ACR23 Abstr#2576 Promising therapy in Dermatomyositis. Phase 2 RCT showed rapid improvement in skin, muscle & patient reported outcomes as fast as Week 4 in PF-06823859 (anti-IFN-B) vs PBO.

In case you missed it!
AR882-selective oral URAT1i added to #allopurinol rapidly improves/dissolve #tophi. Given with #colchicine,
#placebo 3/4 flared vs <1/2 w drug.
My critique is why not optimize allopurinol dose - only 300 mg, no fuboxastat

What happens when you stop #steroids and/ immunosuppressive Rx in Pts in remission for at least 1 yr in #IgG4 disease?
You are likely guessing correctly
Pts flare! Don’t stop Rx
?taper 🤷♀️
Like RA Rx - if stop Rx = flares

#IA Injection in #knee #OA.
TLC599 vs #dexamethasone vs saline #RCT-blinded.
Both active #Rx better than #PBO. Some differences in average daily pain between active drugs.
Not sure where it may fit in? After IA steroid failure?
