Starting soon! Join us tonight at 6pm PT/ 9pm ET for our daily #ACR23 recap. https://t.co/xIBJlYCMQM
Cancer risk minimisation is a high priority for people with rheumatic diseases, as it is for the general population. Tumor necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi) have a long history of association with cancer risk discussions. An oral presentation by Suarez-Almazor et al provided more supportive data on using TNFi in this population.
Our reporters have been prolific in finding the hot abstracts, those that were most attended or those that are getting the most buzz on social media. Here are RheumNow's #ACRbest abstract reports from Monday, November 13, 2023 at #ACR23, covering The Great Debate, SGLPT2 inhibitors in SLE, the SMART Study of MTX, TMP/SMX Prophylaxis, RA-ILD & TNF Inhibitors, cancer research and more.

STEMI outcomes - SLE v non-SLE
1,000,000 STEMIs, 4000 (0.4% SLE pts)
Younger age in SLE grp 61 v 67 yo
Increased risk of mortality: aOR 1.3 (CI 1.1-1.5, p<0.05)
LOS increased 4.7 v 4.5 d, increased hosp $
SLE: risk of CVD & worse prognostic effect

Trimethoprim sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMX) negatively associated with serious infections. Rates for adverse events possibly attributable to TMP-SMX per 100 person-years were 29.6 during and 13.4 post exposure.

Eder et al. Women with PsA have worse outcomes with advanced therapies. OR favours men for ACR 20, IL-17i (OR 1.76), IL-23i (OR 1.46), IL-12/23i (OR 2.66) and TNFi (OR 1.67). Maybe not JAKi (OR 1.09). Placebo OR 1.04. Abstr#1687 #ACR23 @RheumNow https://t.co/bkDmmmYECF https://t.co/VBLnJzhcaY

PAPILUP: HPV in SLE
A#1479 #ACR23 @RheumNow
65 SLE pts v healthy v HIV+
45% not up to date, one only HPV vax
High risk HPV in 29% SLE pts, similar to gen pop
BUT multiple HR-HPV +abnml cytology higher 15% v 7%, similar to HIV+
Clearance impaired on GCs
RF: lupus duration

Large observational study of TNF use among patients with RA & cancer
Overall encouraging, no negative impact on survival
I'm kind of a TNF-truther on this; I don't think they cause ANY increased risk of malignancy

2 RA cohorts w/Breast Cancer
17% TNFi within 1yr after surgery
No diff in overall survival at 5 yr w/ TNFi or csDMARD
Trend towards better BC specific survival w/ TNFi vs. csDMARD only
Worst survival for GC>7.5mg/day
Only 2 yrs follow up

Does TNFi use in pts with RA and early breast cancer affect survival?
TNFi did not affect overall survival or breast cancer specific survival compared to cDMARDs
Steroids did increase mortality

No significant difference in overall survival in early stage breast cancer (BC) patients treated with TNFi (alone -/+ cDMARDs, in 1st year of BC) and cDMARDs in RA. Those on glucocorticoids had worse survival. Suarez-Almazor M, Abst#1675 #ACR23 @RheumNow https://t.co/lnZx3OpuN5

Petri @jhrheumatology data on SGLT2i in SLE
A#1490 #ACR23 @RheumNow
Prior to Rx, average annual change in eGFR was -3.1
After starting SGLT2i, average change decr to -0.9
Did not reach signif (p=0.27)
Average annual incr in UPCR was 0.4 -> 0.37 on SGLT2i, also not signif https://t.co/TviFyAwXbA
