Tapering in RA?
In SORAIRO (n=149), pts in remission on ozoralizumab+MTX:
🧪 49% became MTX-free
⏱ 80% spaced OZR to q8w
CDAI ≤10 maintained in >90% if baseline remission + albumin >3.8

#EULAR2025 Abstr#POS1293 Our cohort study support non-medical switch from Rituximab originator to Biosimilar(RTX-B) or btw RTX-Bs in connective tissue disease. No difference in response/B-cell depletion pre- & post-switch.Only 10% stopped RTX at 5-year.Better than in RA @RheumNow https://t.co/ERPgwQ3gZB

RepurpSS-II RCT (n=46): LEF + HCQ significantly improved systemic disease activity (ESSDAI -4.13) vs PBO in primary #Sjögrens.
⭐️🌱STAR/CRESS response rates also favoured active treatment.
Safe, accessible, affordable option for active disease.

🦵🏻SAP-001, a novel uricosuric targeting a non-URAT1 renal transporter, lowered sUA <6 mg/dL in up to 79% of patients with refractory #gout on b/g xanthine oxidase inhibitor. >50% on 60 mg/day reached sUA <3 mg/dL.
💊Potential new oral ULT option.

Management and prognosis of RP by @Lupusreference
1. Pts with mild disease respond to GCs
2. NSAIDs/colchicine good alternatives
3. Most common biologics used: TNFi and IL6i
4. Consider CYP in life threatening dz/ICU pts
5. Dynamic CT assess tracheal collapse.
6. PET-CT can ≠ https://t.co/PNUecMZvkT

#EULAR2025 Abstr#POS0301 Real World Multicentre study in Italy reported higher proportion of CRR at 6-mth & Lower GC in people with #lupus nephritis (~96% Class III, IV or Mixed with V) treated with Belimumab+SOC vs matched cohort on SOC. Predicted by early BEL use @RheumNow https://t.co/D6e2qo9NRL
Gout flares are associated with cardiovascular events. Treating gout to target serum urate level prevents flares, but whether such treatment can also prevent cardiovascular events is unknown.
Highlights from today included presentations on imaging in vasculitis, a debate on whether to treat high risk pre-clinical RA, and EULAR Recommendations on a) Treatment of interstitial lung disease (ILD); b) Physical Activity in people with arthritis; and c) EULAR disease activity score for antiphospholipid syndrome and d) the management of SLE nephritis. Below are a few others that caught my eye today.

NMA of 14RCTs (>2500 pts) eval relative efficacy of bDMARDs and tsDMARDs in mostly biologic naïve nr-axSpA pts.
-All therapies studied significantly improved ASAS40 response rates compared to placebo.
-Certolizumab and Golimumab were the most effective therapies, followed by https://t.co/BJLRpEDYrv

In 631 axSpA pts (mean age 33y, 54% female) from DESIR cohort, high-dose NSAID use (ASAS NSAID index ≥50) not associated with incident hypertension (HR 1.01; 95% CI 0.98–1.02) over 72 months. NSAID anti-inflammatory effect may offset BP risk in axSpA. Abstract#POS0256 @RheumNow https://t.co/ELYWoJDyKJ
