Ultrasound-Defined Tenosynovitis Beats Signs, Symptoms for Spotting Early RA

Anne Harding  |  June 19, 2015

NEW YORK (Reuters Health)—Ultrasound-defined tenosynovitis (TS) is a strong predictor of early rheumatoid arthritis (RA), according to new findings presented at the European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) Annual Congress in Rome. Patients with TS of the extensor carpi ulnaris (ECU) tendons or the finger flexor tendons were more than six times as likely to be…

Knee Osteoarthritis Pain Worse with Insomnia

Lisa Rapaport  |  June 18, 2015

(Reuters Health)—People suffering from osteoarthritis, the most common type of joint inflammation, are more likely to have knee pain when they also have difficulty getting enough sleep, a study suggests. Researchers found that people with knee osteoarthritis and insomnia were also more likely to suffer from a nervous system disorder called “central sensitization” that makes…

Biosimilars for RA Studied in Multiple Trials

Michele B. Kaufman, PharmD, BCGP  |  June 17, 2015

Biosimilars for etanercept and sarilumab are being examined in multiple Phase 3 trials for their effects in RA and psoriasis patients.

Increased Risk of Serious Infections During Early Anti-TNF Treatment

Will Boggs, MD  |  June 16, 2015

NEW YORK (Reuters Health)—The risk of serious infections increases in the early months of anti-TNF treatment for inflammatory bowel disease, researchers from Denmark report. “The pro-inflammatory cytokine TNF-alpha plays an important role in the immune system and therefore it is biologically plausible that TNF-alpha inhibitors may increase the risk of infections,” said Dr. Nynne Nyboe…

Study Reveals Role of IL-17–Secreting CD4+ T Cells in Lupus

Lara C. Pullen, PhD  |  June 15, 2015

Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are characterized by high-titer, highly specific, isotype-switched antibodies against DNA and RNA. Patients have both CD4+ T helper (Th) cell- dependent as well as Th cell-independent autoantibody production. Two mouse models of lupus demonstrate T-cell–independent autoantibody production: the pristane model of lupus, as well as in the MRL/lpr mouse…

Ixekizumab Clinical Trials Continue; FDA Updates Warning Label for Varenicline

Michele B. Kaufman, PharmD, CGP, RPh  |  June 15, 2015

It seems to have begun in Norway, the international pressure to switch patients from well-known brand biologic agents, such as Remicade (infliximab), to biosimilar agents, due to a significant cost advantage.1 This biosimilar came with a 39% price markdown last year compared with the brand, and when Norway called for bids, the discount went to…

Rheumatoid Arthritis, Periodontal Disease Link Suggests Benefits in Behavioral Change

Karen Appold  |  June 15, 2015

Although compelling data exist to support a link between periodontal disease (PD) and the development of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), cementing the association will require extensive investigative work.1 However, in reviewing the literature of the past 10 years, Elliot D. Rosenstein, MD, director, Institute for Rheumatic and Autoimmune Diseases at Overlook Medical Center, Summit, N.J., and…

Rheumatoid Arthritis Practice Performance Project Spots Problems in RA Management

Rheumatologists have growing concerns about how we manage rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and the disease outcomes we are achieving.1 Over the past two years, clinician rheumatologists have begun working together to address these problems through the Rheumatoid Arthritis Practice Performance (RAPP) Project, a nationwide clinical quality-improvement initiative. The RAPP Project has now grown to 168 participants…
