The great unknown with tocilizumab in GCA, do you stop, how do you stop, etc. @philseo approach. I'm not as brave! Usually park at every other week dosing @RheumNow #RNL2024 https://t.co/y7mg57mWND

Do you have GCA patients on low dose prednisone? Feel reassured. Dr. @philseo provides data showing that low dose prednisone may be helpful in remission maintenance. #RNL2024 @RheumNow https://t.co/oyOsczfkfv

Interesting nuance from @philseo re tocilizumab in GCA. For new onset disease, it may be appropriate to use every other week tocilizumab @RheumNow #RNL2024 https://t.co/moCvpQSkq0

Amaurosis fugax is not the only vision symptoms to assess in patients with #GCA. Blue vision, double vision (if patients have to look at you in a side gaze prevent double vision) may also be present - Dr. P Seo @rheumnow #RNL2024 https://t.co/AhQnOJF7fa

#RNL2024 @RheumNow @philseo: I now give Tociliizumab for nearly all patients with GCA GiACTA shows we weren't doing well enough with steroid monotherapy GiACTA shows dosing frequency does not make a big difference in new diagnosis, but makes a difference in relapsing disease https://t.co/JBgUQtZSAr

When thinking of GCA there are only 2 questions you need to ask. Dr. @philseo reminds us to 1. Establish if new or recurrent disease 2. Assess for presence of visual symptoms #RNL2024 @RheumNow https://t.co/MGML3EafPu

How I do it, treatment of CGA with Dr. @philseo, who thoughtfully paused so everyone could take a picture of this slide knowing full well it was already at our fingertips! Such a gentleman! #RNL2024 @RheumNow https://t.co/8kqacqkRM6

Dr. Phillip Seo contemplates if Taylor and Travis had vasculitis, surely the dose for each would not be the same. Wish you were here @rheum_cat to weigh in on this. #RNL2024 @rheumnow https://t.co/1ynctgIknx

In case you needed any more reasons why @philseo is the best @rheum_cat , this is his first slide @RheumNow #RNL2024 https://t.co/Ar0v7sQuuX

Dr @anisha_dua's takehome points for treating GPA in 2024 *RTX and CYC are both effective followed by RTX at least 500mg q 6 mo for at least 2 years *PLEX not generally used, but may be effective in preventing ESKD *Rapid GC tapering may not be suitable for all pts *Avacopan is… https://t.co/haI19Sgpmu https://t.co/jhjXLwd0Uw

PJP prophylaxis in GPA. Always a trade off but these things are not created equal. PJP or sepsis are much worse on average than the AEs @anisha_dua @RheumNow #RNL2024 https://t.co/9sECd7fSRk
