Comparative efficacy of tofacitinib vs. adalimumab in RA - metanalysis of 9 RCTs, 24,643 pts finds Tofa signif superior to ADA for ACR20 (RR 1.28), HAQ-DI, VAS, but no difference in adverse events (RR 0.96) or DAS28-CRP improvement https://t.co/5mVY2Qvdms https://t.co/czxnlYHEAl

What’s worse for infection in GCA: tail end steroid taper, or a JAK inhibitor?
This is exactly SELECT-GCA in the second 6mo. What happened?
upa skews better on serious infection, worse on HZ
JAKi might have infection risk, but not like steroids. OP0057 #EULAR2025 @RheumNow https://t.co/FigxviOW3e

Early PsA? Treat fast, treat hard.
The STAMP RCT showed that early secukinumab + MTX led to faster ACR50 and PASI90 responses vs standard care in a T2T strategy. By 12 months, outcomes were similar, but early SEC needed fewer escalations.

Combination therapies in PsA not so far away:
-Case series of 22 patients from large PsA cohort.
-Combination therapy in PsA used when difficult to treat skin and msk involvement.
-Deucravacitinib was the agent mostly used in combination with bDMARDs.
-No major serious adverse https://t.co/YUyvuaJcsE

#OP0066 Danish registry study finds no increased risk of cancer recurrence with bDMARDs vs csDMARDs in RA patients with prior solid tumor in remission. IPTW-adjusted HR for any bDMARD: 0.92 (95% CI 0.38–2.21).
📉 TNFi, ,RTX also not associated with recurrence

Case series of 22 PsA pts treats w/ combination bioDMARDs & JAKi,TYK2i or APR
IL17i + JAKi 10.5 PY = 1 mild infectious stomatitis
IL23i + JAKi 3.7 PY = no AE
IL-17i + TYK2i 8.5 PY = 2 mild upper respiratory infections
IL-23i + TYK2i 8.3 PY = 2 mild URIs, 1 folliculitis
TNFi + https://t.co/Qg9HIwuslJ

Can IL-17F signalling be modulated by treatment with TNFi?
In PsA pts non responders to previous TNFi, there was increased expression of IL17F-related gene signature. Suggesting a potential mechanism for the consistent level of clinical response observed with BKZ.

In #InflammatoryArthritis, baseline depression was linked to ↑ presenteeism & ↓ QoL at baseline + 3mo, but not absenteeism. Data from 9-country study provide further evidence that mental health is key to supporting work outcomes in RA, PsA & axSpA.

#EULAR2025 Abstr#OP0074 Manufacturing time for CAR-T can be a hindrance. Preliminary study (N=10 #SLE patients) of CD19/BCMA dual-targeting CAR-T developed on the novel FasTCAR-T platform with next-day manufacturing, showed promising efficacy and safety signals @RheumNow https://t.co/bgF04qe9C7

Worried about cancer risk with ts/bDMARDs in RA?
Real-world data from over 4,600 patients says: don’t be. No increased risk of cancer (incl. NMSC) for JAKi, IL6i, CD20i, or CTLA4-A vs TNFi in long-term registry follow-up.

Early intensive therapy in PsA.
STAMP RCT in early PsA:
•ACR50 at 3mo: 43% (early secukinumab) vs 22% (SoC)
•MDA at 3mo: 48% vs 25%
•PASI90 at 3mo: 60% vs 22%
By 12months: outcomes similar, but early secukinumab led to faster control and fewer therapy escalations. https://t.co/TKa5z24NQX
