Magnetic Resonance Imaging–Detected Features of Inflammation and Erosions in Symptom-Free Persons From the General Population
L. Mangnus, H. W. van Steenbergen, M. Reijnierse, A. H. M. van der Helm-van Mil. Arthritis Rheumatol. 2016 Nov;68(11):2593-2602. doi: 10.1002/art.39749. Epub 2016 Sep 29.
• Electronic medical record database ( THIN) UK general population• RA versus without RA ( 1:5)• Matched for age, sex & year of diagnosis
between1999 & 2014. • Early cohort (1999–2006) /Late cohort (2007–
2014).• Mortality rates: RA versus non-RA cohorts
Improved Survival Of RA Patients
• Widespread use of MTX ( 68% V/S 85%)• csDMARD use( 65% V/S 81%)• Use of TNFi and other biologicals • T-2-T• Combination of all the above measures

Standardized Mortality Ratio 1.16
CONCLUSION: T-2-T strategies in early RA 10 years result
• Rapid response in initial combination therapy with CS/Infliximab
• Similar efficacy and toxicity at 10 years• Functional outcome excellent• Minimal radiographic damage• Survival similar to general population
U-Act-Early
• DMARD naïve RA pts• Mean disease duration 26 days • N=317 ,108 MTX, 103 TCZ, 106 MTX+ TCZ• MTX (10 mg- 30 mg/wk), MTX+ Tocilizumab,
Tocilizumab (8mg/kg IVI monthly) alone • Primary endpoint: sustained remission ( DAS 28 <2.6 for ≥ 24 weeks)
MTX MTX+ TCZ TCZ

Radiographic progression( Sharp-van der Hejde Score week 104) change from baseline mean (SD)/median

1.45 (4.272)/0.00(0.00–2.00)
CONCLUSION: T-2-T strategy in early DMARD naïve
• TCZ± Methotrexate : More effective with similar safety profile as compared to MTX monotherapy• Efficacy of TCZ alone similar to TCZ+MTX• Sustained drug free remission rate : 35%
SPONDYLOARTHROPATHY ( SpA)
• What is the progression rate of nr-axSpA to r-axSpA ?• What are the predisposing factors for this ?
• Recent onset SpA( Mean symptom duration:18 months)
• N=449 baseline & 2 years pelvic radiographs • MRI SIJ +: 37%• HLA-B27 +: 61%
RESULTS
• The potential baseline predisposing factors for developing mNY criteria:
• Current smokers: odds-ratio: 3.3, 95% ci 1.0 - 11.5
• HLAB27 positivity : odds-ratio: 12.6, 95% CI 2.3 - 274
• MRI-SIJ positivity: odds-ratio: 48.8, 95% CI 9.3 - 904
CONCLUSION
• Structural progression exist but is quite small & observed in a small number of patients:
• Smoking• HLAB27 positivity• MRI-SIJ positivity Independent predisposing factors of progression
TICOPA Study
• Open-label multicentre randomized controlled trial• N=206, < 2 Years, DMARD Naïve • Tight Control Group ( N=101): Monthly assessment &
treatment adjustment with aim to achieve MDA• Standard Care ( N=105): assessment every 3 months • Primary outcome: proportion of patients achieving
ACR20 response at 48 weeks
• Dactylitis, Enthesitis: No improvement • Radiographic Damage: No difference in both
the strategies • Cost: More ( approximately double) in tight
control • Adverse Reactions: More serious adverse
events in tight control group ( 25 V/S 8)
CONCLUSION
• Results of this study suggest tight control by T-2-T improves outcomes in newly diagnosed PsA
MEASURE 1 MEASURE 2
Number of patients (n) 371 219
Study protocol 10mg/kg IV Secukinumab or matched placebo at week 0,2, 4 followed by SC Secukinumab 150 mg or 75 mg every 4 weeks starting from 8th week
150 or 75 mg SC Secukinumab at week 1, 2, and 3 and every 4 weeks starting at week 4
Primary end point Proportion of pts with ASAS 20 response at week 16
Proportion of pts with ASAS 20 response at week 16
ADVERSE REACTIONS
• Four cancers were reported in MEASURE 1: 3 Secukinumab group ( B-cell lymphoma, breast
Ca, Transitional cell Ca of the bladder and lymphoma (placebo).
• Crohn’s disease:3 MEASURE 1, 2 MEASURE 2
CONCLUSION
• 150 mg SC Secukinumab with SC or IV loading effective in AS at week 16.• 75 mg Secukinumab effective with higher IV
loading dose.
Secukinumab, a human anti-interleukin-17A monoclonal antibody, in patients with psoriatic arthritis(FUTURE 2): a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial.

FUTURE 2
• N=397• Double blind, placebo controlled, multicenter randomized trial• 65% pts anti-TNF naïve• 47% concomitant MTX• 300 mg, 150 mg, 75 mg & Placebo SC once in
a wk for 4 weeks then every 4 wks• Primary end point: ACR 20 response at wk 24
ADVERSE EFFECTS
• 94% pts completed 24 weeks & 84% completed week 52 period therapy
• URTI, Nasopharyngitis most common in all Secukinumab groups
• Candida infection 11: Oral, Vulvovaginal, Esophageal
• TB: zero• Squamous cell Carcinoma: 3, MI:1
CONCLUSION
• ACR 20 at WK 24: Better with all Secukinumab doses than placebo.
• Other efficacy outcomes: improvement with 300 & 150 mg but improvement with 75 mg not significant.
• Psoriasis symptoms improved better with 300 mg dose than 150 mg
• Efficacy in both anti-TNF naïve and IR pts
SUMMARY
• T-2-T, improves drug free remission/ remission & long term radiographic damage.
• Rate of progression in recent onset SpA is small. Smoking, HLA-B27+ & SI Joint inflammation on MR are independent predisposing factors.
• T-2-T improves outcome in early PsA.• Secukinumab is effective in both AS and PsA.
