    Prediction of the Response of Patients with Chronic Uncontrolled Gout to Pegloticase (In Person) -  Sep 25, 2024 - Abstract #ACRConvergence2024ACR_Convergence_2590;    
    Measurement of PUA at 24 hours and 2 weeks post initial treatment provides information that can predict persistent urate lowering in patients with chronic uncontrolled gout. Weight is associated with 24 hr PUA levels, suggesting that weigh-based dosing could be useful to increase responsiveness to pegloticase.

    Using Case-Based Continuing Education to Identify and Address Knowledge and Behavior Gaps in ANCA-associated Vasculitis (In Person) -  Sep 25, 2024 - Abstract #ACRConvergence2024ACR_Convergence_2565;    
    There was a lack of consensus regarding when to use GC tapering and for how long to keep patients on maintenance therapy. While the education provided had a robust impact on knowledge and confidence, these findings highlight the need for subsequent education regarding evidence-based practices for patient assessment and how to incorporate steroid-sparing regimens into practice.

    Consequences of Switching Originator Biological Therapies to Its Biosimilars in Patients with Immune-mediated Diseases in a Mexican Cohort (In Person) -  Sep 25, 2024 - Abstract #ACRConvergence2024ACR_Convergence_2511;    
    Switching of originator biological therapies to its biosimilar in our cohort of patients might not have an impact on efficacy or the incidence of infections; however, one of the most common AEs was associated with the mechanics of the autoinjector device. Although this may seem a minor issue, it led to patients missing a dose, thus having an impact on treatment compliance and thus the activity of the disease.

    Costs and Clinical Outcomes of the Rheumatoid Arthritis Medication Tapering Cohort (In Person) -  Sep 25, 2024 - Abstract #ACRConvergence2024ACR_Convergence_2502;    
    However, the cost reduction came at the expense of a higher flare rate in the taper group especially in the subset of patients tapering their biologic therapy. We plan to expand our cohort to a multicenter study to analyze clinical outcomes and costs of methotrexate tapering strategies, and to identify biomarkers predictive of successful tapering.

    Modulating Inflammation and Angiogenesis in an Advanced 3D Rheumatoid Arthritis Synovial Tissue Model (In Person) -  Sep 25, 2024 - Abstract #ACRConvergence2024ACR_Convergence_2005;    
    Our 3D RA synovial tissue effectively replicates alterations in cellular interactions based on macrophage phenotype and demonstrates the inhibitory effects of therapeutic compounds on spheroid outgrowth and soluble mediator production. This model shows the potential for testing the effect of various therapeutic applications on RA synovial inflammation and angiogenesis.

    Are Participants in Gout Clinical Trials Representative of People with Gout in the General Population? (In Person) -  Sep 25, 2024 - Abstract #ACRConvergence2024ACR_Convergence_1757;    
    Clinical trials of gout medications approved by the FDA since 2009 have not enrolled a study population that is representative of the US population with gout, based on demographic features and cardiometabolic comorbidities. For broader applicability to the general population with gout, future phase 3 trials should ensure representative inclusion of women, older individuals, diverse ethnicities, and those with comorbid health conditions that are commonly experienced by people with gout.
  • ||||||||||  Recommendations for the Perioperative Use of DMARDs in Rheumatic Diseases: A Scoping Review (In Person) -  Sep 25, 2024 - Abstract #ACRConvergence2024ACR_Convergence_1613;    
    There is a lack of high quality evidence to support recommendations for non-elective, non-orthopaedic surgery cases. Variations in recommendations were more common for csDMARDs compared to b/tsDMARDs, potentially leading to more practice variation in csDMARD use in the perioperative period.

    Very Low Uptake of Biosimilar Adalimumab in the First 9 Months of Availability in Rheumatology (In Person) -  Sep 25, 2024 - Abstract #ACRConvergence2024ACR_Convergence_1590;    
    Early indications are that formulary coverage has been uneven with a much higher percentage of formularies covering bio-originator adalimumab and no formularies have given a biosimilar a preferential tier or mandated step therapy. Delayed uptake of biosimilars means reduced savings for patients and tax payers, and discourages market entry for future biosimilars.
  • ||||||||||  Comparative Risk of Demyelinating Diseases Among Patients on TNF-Alpha Inhibitors: A Cohort Study Using the TriNetX Database (In Person) -  Sep 25, 2024 - Abstract #ACRConvergence2024ACR_Convergence_1463;    
    Using the Trinetx database, we identified five different cohorts for each of the TNF inhibitors, excluding patients on other TNF inhibitors (adalimumab, etanercept, infliximab, certolizumab pegol, and golimumab). Compared to prior reports of a higher risk of developing demyelinating disease with etanercept, our study showed that patients on etanercept do not have an increased risk of demyelinating disease compared to other TNF inhibitors, while infliximab has a statistically significant higher risk compared to adalimumab.

    A Novel Therapeutically Active CSF-1R Agonist Promotes Tissue Macrophages Inflammation Resolution and Induces Tissue Repair Pathways (Room 206; In Person) -  Sep 25, 2024 - Abstract #ACRConvergence2024ACR_Convergence_1200;    
    We have designed a novel CSF-1R agonist optimized for sustained receptor activation and tissue macrophages reprogramming to promote expression of inflammation resolution and tissue remodeling functions. Tissue macrophages activation was decoupled from pro-inflammatory monocytes tissue infiltration induction that may be a beneficial property for the treatment of chronic inflammatory conditions.

    Journal:  Targeting ALDH1A1 to enhance the efficacy of KRAS-targeted therapy through ferroptosis. (Pubmed Central) -  Sep 24, 2024   
    Meanwhile, we established that GTF2I is dephosphorylated at S784 via ERK by KRAS inhibitors, which hinders its nuclear translocation and mediates ALDH1A1's upregulation in response to KRAS inhibitors. In summary, the results offer valuable insights into targeting ALDH1A1 to enhance the effectiveness of KRAS-targeted therapy through ferroptosis in cancer treatment.

    Korean Real-World Experience of Blinatumomab for 8 Years Regarding Predictive Factors Including Lymphocyte Kinetics for Response and Survival Outcome in Adult Patients with Relapsed or Refractory Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (Room A (2F)) -  Sep 24, 2024 - Abstract #ICBMT2024ICBMT_6;    
    The standard protocol consisted of pre-phase dexamethasone, first cycle blinatumomab 28-days (9mcg during initial 7d followed by 28mcg for 21d) was followed by 2-week resting period and second or more cycle of 28mcg blinatumomab for 28-days...We observed early relapse with short CR duration, PB blast prior to blinatumomab, and later-line salvage were related with poor response to blinatumomab and old age and early relapse for poor OS even after allo-HCT. Regarding absolute lymphocyte count (ALC), ALC at first day of blinatumomab was not significantly affecting the response and outcome, but we observed ALC2000/mcL at 2-weeks after blinatumomab was predictive for poor response and poor survival Conclusions : Our long-term data showed blinatumomab was effective even with low ALC before blinatumomab, but preserved ALC was related with good response and better survival outcome.
