Association Between Baseline Use of Rituximab and COVID-19 Outcomes in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)
Background/Purpose: Patients with Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are at a potentially increased risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection, and immunosuppressive or biologic drugs used to treat RA might…Abstract Number: 1562 • ACR Convergence 2021
B Cell Reconstitution Is Strongly Associated with COVID-19 Vaccine Responsiveness in Rheumatic Disease Patients Treated with Rituximab
Background/Purpose: Rituximab (RTX) has previously been shown to impair antibody response to vaccines such as influenza and streptococcus. Recently, diminished COVID-19 vaccine responsiveness in RTX…Abstract Number: 068 • 2020 Pediatric Rheumatology Symposium
Development of CARRA Consensus Treatment Plans for Severe ANCA-associated Vasculitis – Final CARRA-wide Consensus
Background/Purpose: Randomized trials for pediatric ANCA-associated vasculitis (ped-AAV) have not been feasible because of its rarity, therefore adult treatment strategies are usually adapted for children.…Abstract Number: 113 • 2020 Pediatric Rheumatology Symposium
Evaluation of B-cell Depletion with Rituximab and IVIG Concurrent Treatment in Pediatric Autoimmune Brain Disease
Background/Purpose: Rituximab is standard therapy in treating autoimmune brain disease (ABD) including refractory autoimmune encephalitis (AE) and Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disease (NMOSD). Recommendations for continuing…Abstract Number: 143 • 2020 Pediatric Rheumatology Symposium
Immunological Profiles Following Treatment with Rituximab in Autoimmune Disease
Background/Purpose: Autoimmune diseases, including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM), and Autoimmune Encephallitis (AE) arise due to dysregulation of the immune system and a…Abstract Number: 008 • 2020 Pediatric Rheumatology Symposium
Incidence and Risk Factors of Hypogammaglobulinemia and Infectious Complications Associated with Rituximab Use in Pediatric Rheumatic Diseases
Background/Purpose: B-cell depletion therapy has increasingly been used for the treatment of childhood-onset rheumatic diseases. Previous studies investigating whether rituximab results in increased infections have…Abstract Number: 383 • 2019 ACR/ARP Annual Meeting
Retroperitoneal Fibrosis- a Single Center Experience
Background/Purpose: Idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis (iRPF) is a rare, chronic, progressive disorder of unknown etiology and characterized by the presence of inflammatory and fibrous retroperitoneal tissue…Abstract Number: 537 • 2019 ACR/ARP Annual Meeting
Efficacy and Safety Results from a Randomized Double-Blind Study That Compared the Proposed Biosimilar ABP 798 with Rituximab in Subjects with Moderate to Severe RA
