Burden of Illness in Patients with RA and Anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide Positivity
Background/Purpose: RA is often treated with a biologic DMARD (bDMARD), such as abatacept (ABA) or a TNF inhibitor (TNFi). Real-world data on how economic outcomes…Abstract Number: 1034 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Presence of Anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide Antibodies Is Associated with Better Treatment Response to Abatacept but Not to TNF Inhibitors in Patients with RA: A Meta-Analysis
Background/Purpose: The association between anti-citrullinated protein antibody (ACPA) status and erosions, as well as response to TNF inhibitor (TNFi) treatment, has been explored.1,2 Results based…Abstract Number: 1402 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
In RA, Becoming Seronegative over the 1st Year of DMARD Treatment Does Not Improve Chances of Drug-Free Remission in the Long-Term
Background/Purpose: Patients with RA harbor autoantibodies of various isotypes and directed against several post-translational modifications. Baseline seropositivity is a poor prognostic factor for sustained drug-free…Abstract Number: 2914 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Anti-CCP Antibody Levels Are Elevated in Cervicovaginal Fluid in Association with Local Inflammation in Premenopausal Women without RA
Background/Purpose: Data support that anti-CCP antibodies likely originate at a mucosal site prior to the onset of inflammatory arthritis (IA) in the development of RA.…Abstract Number: 2916 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
The Presence of a Large Number of Autoantibodies at Baseline Is Favourable for Early Treatment Response but Unfavourable for Drug-Free Remission in RA Patients
Background/Purpose: The autoantibody response of seropositive RA is very diverse and consists of various numbers of isotypes and antibodies to multiple post-translational modifications. It is…Abstract Number: 239 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Ultrasound Abnormalities Predict Arthritis Development in ACPA and/or RF Positive Arthralgia Patients
Background/Purpose: Early diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is important for controlling disease activity and preventing joint damage. Individuals positive for anticitrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA) and/or…Abstract Number: 476 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Novel Interaction between Anti-Citrulline Monoclonal Antibodies and Apoptotic Cells Is Mediated through Citrullinated Nuclear Antigens
Background/Purpose: Anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA) display broad cross-reactivities and target proteins including a-enolase, filaggrin, vimentin, fibrinogen, and histones. However, every monoclonal ACPA has a distinct…Abstract Number: 477 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Monoclonal ACPA-IgG Feature Extensive Fab Glycosylation
Background/Purpose: Fab-glycosylation is found in ~15-25% serum IgG and while its exact consequence remains unknown, it may alter IgG functionality. Recent data revealed elevated Fab-glycosylation…Abstract Number: 481 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Immunocompetent Cells Expressing Citrullinated Proteins in Joint Synovium of Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Human monoclonal ACPA (Human-ACPA) is reported to strongly bind to synovium in RA patients [1]. The aims of our study were 1) To investigate…Abstract Number: 576 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Anti-CCP3.1 and Anti-CCP3-IgA Are Elevated in RA-Free Subjects with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
Background/Purpose: In RA-associated interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD), higher levels of anti-CCP antibodies have been associated with the presence and severity of ILD suggesting a potential…Abstract Number: 588 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Radiographic Progression Is Less Significant in Anti-Carbamylated Antibody-Positive Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) Who Were Clinically Active and Under the Treatment with Biological Dmards
Background/Purpose: A newly discovered anti-carbamylated protein antibody (anti-CarP) is found prior to disease-onset, associates with the conversion towards arthralgia and with a more severe disease…Abstract Number: 644 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Seroprevalence and Its Impact on Radiographic Damage in Korean Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients Starting Biologics
Background/Purpose: High titers of rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody (ACCP) are poor prognostic factors for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. Only few studies…Abstract Number: 1037 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Evaluation of 14-3-3η As a Tool for Diagnosis of Early RA in a European Cohort
Background/Purpose: Early diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) coupled with an effective treatment strategy is a key imperative in the effective management of disease. Anti-citrullinated peptide…Abstract Number: 1220 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Comparison of Healthcare Utilization of Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis Who Are Anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide Antibody Positive Versus Negative
Background/Purpose: Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) antibody is a marker used in the diagnosis of RA, and it may be useful in identifying patients who are…Abstract Number: 1226 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Evaluation of the Association Between C-Reactive Protein and Anti-Citrullinated Protein Antibody in Rheumatoid Arthritis: Analysis of Two Clinical Practice Data Sets
Background/Purpose: The association between inflammatory markers such as CRP or ESR and joint damage has been widely established in RA. Autoantibodies such as RF and…
