Cytokine Signalling Forum

Join Professor Iain McInnes for the latest episode of Discussing RA on The Immune-Mediated Inflammatory Disease Forum. In this episode, he will review a paper by Taylor et al. where authors report the effects of UPA and ADA on pain in patients with active RA or PsA stratified by inflammatory status, and a paper by Sonomoto et al. which shows the effectiveness of TOF, BAR, UPA and FIL in patients with RA.

Join Professor Laura Coates and Phillip Mease as they discuss the top publications in the world of PsA. This month, the conversation covered the ‘classification of patients into distinct PsA phenotypes based on baseline demographics and clinical characteristics using a machine learning approach, and consensus-derived GRAPPA terminology, to support shared clinical decision making, and enable more effective patient stratification in both observational studies and clinical trials.

Join Professor Peter Nash from the Griffith University in Brisbane, and Professor Matthew Brown, the Chief Scientific Officer at Genomics England, as they discuss his recent paper ‘Low uveitis rates in patients with axial spondyloarthritis treated with bimekizumab: Pooled results from Phase 2b/3 trials’.

Join Professor Iain McInnes for the latest episode of Discussing RA on The Immune-Mediated Inflammatory Disease Forum. In this episode, he will review a paper by Strand et al. that evaluated TOF efficacy, safety, and persistence by sex, and explored whether age-related factors contribute to differences in treatment response between males and females, and by Alten et al. that explored the long‑term effectiveness of baricitinib and other b/tsDMARDs in patients with RA with early low disease activity or remission.

Join Professor Iain McInnes for the latest episode of Discussing RA on The Immune-Mediated Inflammatory Disease Forum. In this episode, he and Doctor Reike Alten will be reviewing two papers. The first paper by Kameda et al. assessed long-term safety and efficacy of UPA over 5 years in Japanese patients with moderate-to- severe active RA and an inadequate response to stable doses of csDMARDs-IR. The second paper by Salvato et al. assessed the impact of chronic oral low-dose GCs on the efficacy and retention rates of JAK inhibitors compared to other mechanisms of action therapies in a cohort of RA patients with inadequate response to TNFi.

Join Dr Sofia Ramiro and Professor Xenofon Baraliakos as they discuss the top publications in the world of axSpA. This month, the conversation covered a retrospective, multinational, cross-sectional survey of real-world outcomes for patients with axial spondyloarthritis receiving subcutaneous infliximab

Join Professor Laura Coates and Phillip Mease as they discuss the top publications in the world of PsA. This month, the conversation covered the ‘the effectiveness and safety of upadacitinib with secukinumab and adalimumab’ and ‘the efficacy of long-term treatment with risankizumab across the updated GRAPPA domains and key related conditions of PsA’.

Join Professor Iain McInnes for the latest episode of Discussing RA on The Immune-Mediated Inflammatory Disease Forum. In this episode, he will review two papers. The first paper, by Hernández-Hernández et al. looks at clinical and demographic factors associated with UPA treatment persistence and assesses how cardiovascular risk minimization measures have impacted UPA prescription patterns. The second paper by Nozaki et al. evaluates the clinical efficacy and continuation rates of JAK inhibitors and TNF inhibitors in RA patients with poor prognosis factors.

Join Professor Peter Nash from the Griffith University in Brisbane, and Professor Filip Rob, the Department of head of the Dermatovenereology at the Second Faculty of Medicine, Charles University, University Hospital Bulovka, Prague, Czech Republic, as they discuss his recent paper ‘Efficacy, safety, and drug survival during the first year of biologic therapy for psoriasis in elderly versus younger patients’.

Webinar highlights! Join Professor Iain McInnes and Drs Grace Wright and Melinda Gooderham as they discuss advancing patient care through an interdisciplinary approach to IMIDs. This webinar provides information on bridging care pathways, advancing IMID treatment, and case studies of interdisciplinary care.

Join Dr Sofia Ramiro and Professor Xenofon Baraliakos as they discuss the top publications in the world of axSpA. This month, the conversation covered the Association between adalimumab dosing interval and uveitis recurrence in patients with ankylosing spondylitis.

Join Professor Iain McInnes for the latest episode of Discussing RA on The Immune-Mediated Inflammatory Disease Forum. In this episode, Iain will review a paper by B Fautrel, in which authors compare patient characteristics and long-term management with tocilizumab in RA patients over and under 75 years of age, and tolerance of RA treatments.

Join Doctor Sofia Ramiro and Professors Janet Pope and Atul Deodhar, as they review and discuss key data from ACR 2025 across RA, PsA, and axSpA, focusing on implications for clinical practice.
