Autoantibody-positivity Before Treatment Is Associated with Immune-related Adverse Events in Melanoma Patients Treated with anti-PD-1
Background/Purpose: PD-1 immune checkpoint inhibitors are able to re-activate restrained anti-tumor T-cell responses in melanoma patients. However, PD-1 inhibition may also activate auto-reactive T-cells leading…Abstract Number: 0300 • ACR Convergence 2023
Nailfold Videocapillaroscopy in Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathy Compared with Healthy Controls
Background/Purpose: Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs) are a group of autoimmune disorders that cause inflammation of the muscle. This includes dermatomyositis and polymyositis. Literature has been…Abstract Number: 1142 • ACR Convergence 2023
A Retrospective Analysis of Radiographic and Serologic Findings in Patients with Scleroderma and Interstitial Lung Disease
Background/Purpose: Connective tissue diseases such as scleroderma are frequently associated with interstitial lung disease (ILD). Detection of autoantibodies is crucial in characterizing disease phenotypes, but…Abstract Number: 1570 • ACR Convergence 2023
Prognostic Assessment of the 2022 ACR/EULAR Classification Criteria for Takayasu Arteritis: A Multi-centre International Study
Background/Purpose: The 2022 ACR/EULAR classification criteria for Takayasu arteritis (TAK) rely on a point-based clinical and imaging scoring system (from 0 to 22). The aim…Abstract Number: 2552 • ACR Convergence 2023
Inflammatory Fibrosis Precedes Loss of Kidney Function in Lupus Nephritis
Background/Purpose: Interstitial fibrosis in lupus nephritis (LN) is often infiltrated by immune cells. However, this is typically regarded as nonspecific "scar reaction" rather than active…Abstract Number: 0320 • ACR Convergence 2023
Feasibility and Acceptability of Geniculate Artery Embolization for the Treatment of Painful Knee Osteoarthritis
Background/Purpose: There are limited non-surgical options for patients with severe pain due to knee osteoarthritis (KOA).Using geniculate artery embolization (GAE) to infarct hypervascular synovium, a…Abstract Number: 1160 • ACR Convergence 2023
Antibody Predictors of Prognosis in a Large Multi-centre Cohort of Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathy Associated Interstitial Lung Disease
Background/Purpose: IIM-ILD follows a varied clinical course. Serological profile can help predict clinical phenotype, but impact on ILD prognosis is less clear. This multicentre UK…Abstract Number: 1699 • ACR Convergence 2023
Immunosuppression with Targeted Therapies Reduces Morbidity and Mortality in Pre-Capillary Pulmonary Hypertension Associated with Systemic Sclerosis: A EUSTAR Analysis
Background/Purpose: Systemic sclerosis (SSc) associated pre-capillary pulmonary hypertension (precapPH) is a severe condition that requires prompt treatment. Although immunosuppressants (IMS) are standard of care for…Abstract Number: 2554 • ACR Convergence 2023
Validation of a Flare Risk Index Informed by Select Immune Mediators in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus in a Confirmatory Cohort
Background/Purpose: SLE is marked by immune dysregulation linked to varied clinical disease activity. Using a unique confirmatory cohort of SLE patients, this study seeks to…Abstract Number: 0382 • ACR Convergence 2023
Heterogeneity Within a “difficult to Treat” Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients Cohort: 36% May Have a More Benign Course and Have Distinct Characteristics at bDMARD or tsDMARD Initiation
Background/Purpose: Early detection of difficult to treat (D2T) RA patients as well as better characterization of their long-term course represent unresolved issues. Herein we aimed…Abstract Number: 1167 • ACR Convergence 2023
Transcriptome Analysis of Peripheral Blood Reveals Superiority of the Triple Combination of Baricitinib, Rituximab, and Tacrolimus Therapy (BRT-Tx.) for anti-MDA5 Antibody-positive Dermatomyositis (MDA5-DM)
Background/Purpose: MDA5-DM is characterized by high mortality due to rapid progressive ILD. We reported that in MDA-5DM, (1) RIG-1-like receptor signaling is enhanced, (2) antiviral…Abstract Number: 1972 • ACR Convergence 2023
Evaluation of Myositis Autoantibodies as Predictors of Response to IVIG: Post-hoc Analysis of a Large Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Phase III Trial
Background/Purpose: Dermatomyositis (DM) is an immune-mediated inflammatory myopathy (IIM). Two subsets ofautoantibodies have been identified in patients with IIM: Myositis-specific antibodies (MSA) and myositis-associated antibodies…Abstract Number: 2561 • ACR Convergence 2023
The Prognostic Value of the “2022 ACR/EULAR Classification Criteria for Giant Cell Arteritis”: Data from the Italian Society of Rheumatology Vasculitis Study Group
Background/Purpose: The 2022 classification criteria for giant cell arteritis (GCA) have been recently published. The aim of this study is to investigate whether the score…Abstract Number: 0392 • ACR Convergence 2023
Novel Diagnostic Markers for Rheumatoid Arthritis Including Anti-CarP (Carbamylated Protein), Anti-Sa (Citrullinated Vimentin) and Anti-CEP1 (Citrullinated Enolase Peptide1) Are Frequently Positive in Diagnostic Profiles
Background/Purpose: Despite the diagnostic contribution of Anti-CCP3.1 (cyclic citrillunated peptide) antibody and RF (rheumatoid factor) as classified by the 2010 ACR/EULAR RA criteria, approximately one-third…
