#EULAR2025 Abstr#OP0006. There is no standardised definition for complete renal response in #lupus nephritis. Post-hoc analysis of REGENCY showed Obinutuzumab + SOC was superior to PBO + SOC if endpoints for voclosporin and belimumab RCTs were used. Effect size ~13-16% @RheumNow https://t.co/q8MNAV8XF3

Secukinumab Use in Refractory Giant Cell Arteritis
In 2023, the phase 2 TitAIN study showed that the effectiveness and safety of secukinumab in 52 patients with giant cell arteritis (GCA) who had an inadequate response to tocilizumab. While we await the results of a larger https://t.co/pG3aN3o4GZ

1 shot will do!
#symptomatic #Knee #OA given #gene #therapy #intra-#articular
Seemed to last up to 104 weeks!
But no placebo
small safety study but sustained #WOMAC responses
Needs large #RCT but v interesting

Exciting results from ARGO trial:
-Phase 2 of Sonelokimab (dual IL-17A-IL17F) nanobody in PsA.
-Met primary endpoint of ACR50 at week 12 vs PBO.
-62% achieved MDA
-48% achieved composite of ACR 70+PASI 100
Looking forward to phase 3 results!!!

Insights from the Gut-Joint Axis in axSpA: Findings from the DESIR cohort
-Baseline biomarkers of bacterial translocation: PLTP (phospholipid transfer protein) and LPS evaluated.
-In early axSpA baseline PLTP activity was associated with sacroiliac radiographic progression at 5

So much needed in SLE and pregnancy
1. Risk stratification at diagnosis
2. Pregnancy counseling at dx and >1 y before pregnancy
3. Close collab with GYN necessary
4. Challenging management given gaps in evidence.

Secukinumab for PMR?
-post hoc analysis of the TitAIN study (phase 2 RCT on new onset/relapsing GCA) showed:
-Numerical reduction in patients experiencing PMR symptoms when treated with secukinumab compared to placebo.
-Safety profile was similar to the overall GCA study

Real-world study on dual bDMARD plus JAKi or TYK2i combinations in refractory PsA. 22 PsA patients on dual bDMARD + JAKi/TYK2i:
•Most common: IL-17i + TYK2i
•Total exposure: 8.5–10.5 pt-years
•Only mild URIs/stomatitis
•Clinical improvements seen in joint/skin domains https://t.co/waDReDqSDE

SPEED RCT: In early PsA with poor prognostic factors, PASDAS at 24wks:
•Early TNFi: 3.7
•Combo csDMARDs: 4.1
•Step-up csDMARDs: 4.7
Early TNFi beat step-up by -1.09 (p<0.001); combo csDMARDs also superior (-0.69, p=0.02). Early TNFi benefit sustained at 48wks. Abstract#OP0089 https://t.co/MpazF8BIr2
