Maintenance of Remission After Tocilizumab Withdrawal in Patients With Glucocorticoid‐Dependent Polymyalgia Rheumatica

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective The SEMAPHORE trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of tocilizumab (TCZ) treatment in patients with glucocorticoid (GC)‐dependent polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR). TCZ reduced GC dose and disease activity at week 24. This study aimed to assess relapse rates after stopping TCZ treatment in patients achieving remission at week 24.

Late‐Onset Spondylarthritis Presenting as Glucocorticoid‐Resistant Polymyalgia Rheumatica: A hitherto underappreciated entity where TNF or IL‐17 Blockade may have a Therapeutic Role

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Background Polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) is an age‐related inflammatory disease with shoulder‐hip girdle involvement. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) reveals extracapsular/entheseal soft tissue involvements in both PMR and spondyloarthritis (SpA) with sacroiliac joint and peri‐entheseal spinal bone marrow oedema (BMO) being characteristic of SpA ...

The Evolving Landscape of Immunotoxicity: Charting Mechanisms and Future Strategies for Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Adverse Events

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has significantly improved the efficacy of cancer therapy, but their associated immune‐related adverse events (irAEs) can severely compromise treatment safety. This review systematically summarizes the core mechanisms underlying irAEs, which include multi‐organ damage resulting from T‐cell ...

Clinical perspectives and comparisons between immunoglobulin G4‐related disease and antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody‐associated vasculitis

open access: yesRheumatology &Autoimmunity, EarlyView.
Clinical perspectives and comparisons between immunoglobulin G4‐related disease and antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody‐associated vasculitis. Abstract Both immunoglobulin (Ig) G4‐related disease (IgG4‐RD) and antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)‐associated vasculitis (AAV) are systemic disorders that affect a wide range of organs.
