Positive results presented so yes, interest in molecules beyond JAKi. All good for people esp once patents finish! #EULAR2019 https://t.co/beW9GblqdF

Look at this list of Biosimilars to TNFis! How would you decide what to use? The cost to the payer & what might be imposed? #EULAR2019 https://t.co/DhshdumsXO

In GCA, concomitant PMR might separate out better prognosis phenotype. Mortality benefit in PMR-relevant OR 0.68 (0.58-0.80). Phenotypes important moving forward in therapeutic selection? #EULAR2019 THU0295 from U La Paz, Madrid @RheumNow https://t.co/4viMygbTcP

Think: Do you really need to repeat another ANA test?🤔
👉🏼Repeat Antinuclear #antibody testing after a negative result had limited utility in diagnosis of ANA associated rheumatological conditions

OP0315. In ERA CATCH cohort fatigue final improvement lags behin remission by approx 6 months. So tell pts with RA that maximal improvement in fatigue lags a bit. #EULAR2019 @RheumNow

New #EULAR2019 data finds a link between vitamin D deficiency and disease activity among #spondyloarthritis patients. This could help explain the cause of "osteoporosis related to spondyloarthritis, and may adversely affect the patient’s functional status and quality of life."

There is no clear relationship between ANCA titer and vasculitis relapse, but patients with negative ANCA seem to have less relapses. #EULAR2019 #vasculitis

Interesting discussion about nocebo effect when swapping to biosimilars. “Cheaper” may trigger this.
Health professionals need to understand we are salespeople in many situations. Language, trust, style matter.

Optimal bimekizumab dose in PsA still remains to be determined.

Ritchlin: Bimekizumab (anti-IL17A & F) Phase 2B in active PsA = rapid response but also further increases wk12 to wk20 and sustained to wk48.

@_connectedcare @RheumNow Certainly good rationale for also blocking IL-17F from pathophysiology point of view but will need to see if leads to diffs in RCTs…may also be important for IBD/other conditions
