Mashup Score: 8Say Goodbye to Methotrexate in PMR? | RheumNow - 17 hour(s) ago
For decades, glucocorticoids (GCs) have formed the backbone of polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) management. Whilst previously there was a sense that a “low” GC dose with limited duration was used, we now appreciate just how heterogenous the disease course of PMR can be, with many patients experiencing frequent relapses and garnering a subsequent huge GC burden over a number of years. This is a cause of significant concern, especially in this older vulnerable cohort of patients.

Mashup Score: 19
Lupus nephritis is one of the most silent and severe manifestations of SLE. When not captured early, patients are at high risk of progressing to end-stage renal disease, which would require dialysis or transplantation. Renal biopsy remains the gold standard for diagnosis and disease classification. However, the procedure is invasive and very painful. Non-invasive measures are critical for early detection and continuous monitoring.

Mashup Score: 2Taking CAR-T for a Test Drive | RheumNow - 1 day(s) ago
When the ACR Convergence 2024 abstract site went live, the first query I typed into the search bar was, “CAR-T.” I consider myself a CAR-T skeptic and would be surprised if the magical results from this NEJM case series replicate at scale, but it seems likely that CAR-T will revolutionize the care for (some) patients with rheumatic diseases. What new data will be presented at ACR?

Mashup Score: 2Are Emulation Trials a Fantasy? | RheumNow - 1 day(s) ago
Are emulation ‘trials’ helpful, despite the biases that occur with observational data, or do they truly mimic the results of randomized controlled trials (RCTs)?

Mashup Score: 0RIP to Glucocorticoids in GPA | RheumNow - 2 day(s) ago
For many years glucocorticoids were the mainstay of our treatment of granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA). The paradigm shifted with cyclophosphamide and then again with rituximab, and we used less steroids, but we still used lots. Avacopan teased the demise of steroids, but in the trial they, and now we, still use them. Glucocorticoids are our old trusty friend, our comfort blanket. But no more! Good riddance to the medication with the highest long-term adverse event burden that we use. Long-term glucocorticoids in GPA should now be a rarity. The reason for such exuberance is the TAPIR study presented by Dr. Peter Merkel at Saturday’s opening plenary session.
