WASHINGTON, D.C.—Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) patients taking TNF inhibitors don’t develop new cancers at a higher rate than JIA patients who don’t take TNF inhibitors, according to the largest study so far conducted to study the possible link. The findings were reported at the 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting in an abstract session that also included…

As Role of Kinase Inhibitors in Rheumatic Disease Treatment Expands, Experts Review Therapy’s Failures, Successes
LONDON—Kinase inhibitors’ profile in the world of rheumatic disease therapy is growing, and they are probably going to play an even larger and more central role as time goes on, experts said at the Annual Congress of the European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) 2016. But Gary S. Firestein, MD, director of the Clinical and Translational…
Tofacitinib and Other Kinase Inhibitors Offer New Approach to Treating Rheumatoid Arthritis
Small molecule kinase inhibitors, such as JAK inhibitors, provide a novel route for rheumatic disease treatment—and may promote our understanding of the immune system’s complexities
ACR Winter Rheumatology Symposium: New Kinase Inhibitors Show Promise
Toxicity and appropriate targeting are challenges for small molecule researchers
Where Will Kinase Inhibitors Fit into the RA Treatment Mix?
Presenters at “Looking Ahead to Kinase Inhibition in Rheumatoid Arthritis,” a session here at the 2011 ACR/ARHP Annual Scientific Meeting, delved into some of the big questions that rheumatology faces with kinase inhibitor use.
Cardiovascular Safety with RA Treatments
Research by Chicre et al. found that Janus kinase inhibitors may significantly increase the risk of major adverse cardiac events and all-cause death in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) when compared with other RA treatments. This study highlights the need for more comparative safety studies.
3 AC&R Study Summaries: Prescribing Patterns, PMR & Glucocorticoids, & Infection Screening
A Shift in Prescribing Patterns Safety issues prompt discontinuation of tofacitinib By Stephanie Song, MD, & Joshua F. Baker, MD, MSCE Why was this study done? The ORAL Surveillance study highlighted risks of cardiac events, thromboembolism (VTE) and malignancy associated with use of Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi). We sought to determine the impact of safety…
Clinical Year in Review: 2023
SAN DIEGO—At ACR Convergence 2023, Philip Seo, MD, MHS, presented an overview of clinical updates in rheumatology from the past year.
The Heterogeneity of Psoriatic Arthritis
SAN DIEGO—Differences between psoriatic arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis highlight the need for the development of imaging modalities, laboratory tests and other biomarkers that are explored and validated specifically for PsA to advance the goal of personalized or precision medicine. In this article, expert David S. Pisetsky, MD, PhD, explores the top research in psoriatic arthritis presented at ACR Convergence 2023.
