After failure of a first TNFi in axSpA, #OP0235 from ROC-SpA trial found no superiority of switching to an IL-17A inhibitor over cycling to second TNFi. ASAS40 responses at Week 24 similar with both strategies, supporting individualised treatment decisions. #EULAR2026 @RheumNow

#EULAR2026 POS0729 Longer-term data of autologous CD19 CAR-T appear favourable in #SLE. 4-year data of the initial 8 patients treated at Erlangen remained in GC- and IS-free remission. Infection profile declined over time apart from some blips during COVID pandemic @RheumNow https://t.co/QZMxA2CK33

Catching up with the “Optimising care in SpA” at #EULAR2026 #OP0234 Phase 3 OLINGUITO trial showed filgotinib significantly improved ASAS40 responses vs PBO in both radiographic and non-radiographic axSpA by Week 16, with responses maintained through Week 52. @RheumNow #EULARBest https://t.co/axn6Zv52RA

#EULAR2026 OP022 We need to think beyond proteinuria to assess activity & response in #lupusnephritis. ReBioLup study showed 67% of patients with persistent histologic activity at 12 months (NIH=>4) still met criteria for complete clinical response @RheumNow https://t.co/bRFNrNLjJX

TCZ vs ABA head-to-head in #RA after 1-2 prior b/tsDMARDs: SUNSTAR RCT (n=224) didn't hit its primary endpoint (CDAI change at wk 26, p=0.11). But composite response (treatment persistence + LDA + steroid-sparing) favored TCZ: 50.5% vs 35% (p=0.034). @RheumNow #EULAR2026 OP0205

MTX PO split dose MTX (15mg AM + 10mg PM) vs SC in early seropositive #RA in SCOOT RCT (n=252): SC MTX had better EULAR response at 16 wks (OR 0.55, p=0.049) and ↑ transaminitis with oral split. SC MTX remains the preferred route above 15mg/wk. @RheumNow #EULAR2026 OP0206
