How is a biosimilar approved? Comparative effectiveness study for the reason that the medication was initial approved required, not for other indications Jonathan Kay shows ex of ETN-ykro vs reference ETN in RA Non-inferior in immunogenicity, safety, efficacy @RheumNow #RNL2023 https://t.co/OOHie9Qr5t

Great #RNL2023 Plenary with "Miracle Larry" after 128 days in hospital for COVID-19, on 3-year anniversary of going into coma "I am the expert on what this virus can do. I don't want the world to ever forget" @RheumNow https://t.co/kTuDXDhTtQ

Tremendously emotional (and unfiltered) first person account of his fight with COVID-19 by Miracle Larry who thanked our Dr. Cush @RheumNow for his ingenuity in fighting COVID-19, thanking healthcare workers for all they do, and reminding us to be empathic. #RNL2023 https://t.co/i0D7r8dR8n

Was amazed at the tons of biosimilar TNF options @_connectedcare uses in Australia... coming soon to the US! Jonathan Kay #RNL2022 shows the lists of biosimilar May be w/in batch-to-batch variability, unintended drift, or deliberate process changes (evolution) @RheumNow https://t.co/sfVQspxbyr

MTX is a prodrug! MTX polyglutamate is true active ingredient 1/2 of MTX PG is 60 days, compared to only 6-8 horus for MTX Steady state is not until 27.5 weeks! Joel Kremer at #RNL2023 @RheumNow https://t.co/hodFZ2oi11

Do you stop MTX on patients on bDMARD? MTX decrease anti-drug antibodies on patients on infliximab - increases drug duration. Similar seen with new combination usage with pelogloticase Joel Kremer MD #RhuemNow @RheumNow https://t.co/8UrGZaFStA

“We valued sports, wit, and friendship. By all accounts that would make him a rich man but that was before COVID19.” @RheumNow #RNL2023 introduces “Miracle Larry”who battled 128 days hospitalized from the pandemic (and 62 years of knowing Cush!) https://t.co/91p5nPl0n9

How do you wean MTX? Consider every other week dosing as options - supported by 2 randomized studies from 1995 and 1999 Option to lower weekly dosing in patients that want to take less often Joel Kremer #RNL2023 @RheumNow https://t.co/3GMdn3lLhy
