Remibrutinib (LOU064) in Sjögren’s Syndrome: Safety and Efficacy Results from a 24‑Week Placebo-controlled Proof-of-Concept Study
Background/Purpose: Sjögren's syndrome (SS) is a systemic autoimmune disease of unknown etiology characterized by B-cell hyperactivation, lymphoid infiltration, progressive destruction of exocrine glands, and various…Abstract Number: 1107 • ACR Convergence 2022
Efficacy and Safety of Tofacitinib in Patients with Polymyalgia Rheumatica (EAST PMR): A Prospective Study
Background/Purpose: Polymyalgia Rheumatica (PMR) is a common inflammatory disease in elderly persons whose pathogenesis is unclear. Glucocorticoids are the first-line drugs for patients with PMR,…Abstract Number: 1118 • ACR Convergence 2022
Monocyte Transcriptomic Analysis Uncovers Heterogeneous Gene Expression Profiles in Systemic Lupus Erythematous (SLE) with and Without Subclinical Atherosclerosis
Background/Purpose: A leading cause of mortality in SLE is cardiovascular disease (CVD) through accelerated atherosclerosis: the build-up of cells and lipids in the vascular wall.…Abstract Number: 1120 • ACR Convergence 2022
Transcriptome-Wide Association Study of Sjögren’s Disease Risk Alleles Identifies Novel Genes with Altered Expression in Minor Salivary Gland and Other Tissues
Background/Purpose: Sjögren's disease (SjD) is an autoimmune disease characterized by reduced function of exocrine glands, but also has systemic manifestations affecting multiple organs, including abnormal…Abstract Number: 1121 • ACR Convergence 2022
Intricate Roles of Low Gene Copy Numbers for Complement C4, C4A Deficiency and HLA-DRB1*03 as Genetic Risk Factors for Myositis, Its Subgroups and Autoantibodies
Background/Purpose: Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) are a group of autoimmune diseases characterized by autoantibodies plus infiltration of leukocytes into muscles and/or the skin, leading to…Abstract Number: 1123 • ACR Convergence 2022
Excess of Rare Deleterious Variants Within JAK-STAT Pathway – Related Genes in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis Associated Interstitial Lung Disease
Background/Purpose: Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with RA. To date, there are no specific treatments available…Abstract Number: 1117 • ACR Convergence 2022
Efficacy and Safety of Deucravacitinib, an Oral, Selective, Allosteric TYK2 Inhibitor, in Patients with Active Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: A Phase 2, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study
Background/Purpose: Tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) mediates signaling of Type I IFNs, IL-23, and IL-12, key cytokines involved in lupus pathogenesis. Deucravacitinib (DEUC) is an oral,…Abstract Number: 1094 • ACR Convergence 2022
Mechanical Loading-induced BHLHE40 Promotes Inflammatory Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Force induced microdamage to joint tissue is hypothesized to trigger inflammatory events in the joint leading to arthritis. Patients with inflammatory arthritis, such as…
