Sjögren's Foundation Steven Zhao A recent study by Vasco C Romao et al. investigates predictors of worsening systemic involvement in patients with Sjögren’s disease. 👉 Younger age at diagnosis and positive biopsy and rheumatoid factor are predictors of systemic disease. 👉 bit.ly/3YfTA4q

FDA has given FDA Breakthrough Therapy designation to Nipocalimab for treatment of adults w/ moderate-to-severe Sjögren’s disease. NIPO is an Ab to neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn), & was tested and shown effective in Sjog in the Phase 2 DAHLIAS study - a plenary presentation at

Amazing talk by Christoph Thaiss at #ACR24 on the role of stress on inflammation! One of the highlights for me so far. Small room though, more attention needed to this important topic we see every day in clinic. Stress —> inflammatory response—>IMIDs, flares, poor outcomes 🔥

Happy to present at #ACR24 our first data on scRNAseq and spatial transcriptomics in #Sjogrens. Minor salivary glands of early and late SjD revealed many different types of cell populations. More to come! Joint effort Luis Graca lab iMM with #rheum & #path ULS Santa Maria

Interesting thought provoking study from UAE. 28% HCPs (physicians or nurses) had fibromyalgia! Most w/ moderate or severe stress levels. More than half thought about quitting. No stress reduction activities due to “no time”. Work stress->fatigue. This is not sustainable. #ACR24

Loiseau et al. 4700 pSS, 47000 comparators. pSS associated with increased risk of every CV/VTE outcome. Did not have that in my priors! Dr. John Cush #ACR24 Abstr#2631 acrabstracts.org/abstract/risk-…

Loiseau #2631 increased risk of MI, (HF), stroke, VTE and peripheral artery disease in Danish patients with #Sjogrens disease, compared to general population. Some variation according to time since diagnosis. No adjustment for smoking though. Important epidemiological data #ACR24

Live from #ACR24: Promising results from PHOENYCS GO trial! DZP, a CD40L inhibitor, showed a 49.5% BICLA response at Week 48 (vs 34.6% with PBO+SOC). Hierarchical significance not achieved. Steroid tapering to ≤7.5 mg/day achieved in 72.4% of patients. André Ribeiro
