Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

RhAPPcast: Switch, Don’t Cycle: Interpreting the SELECT-SWITCH Trial and What It Means for RA Care

Q: What safety considerations should clinicians emphasize when discussing switching from TNF inhibitors to a JAK inhibitor?

Clinicians should highlight malignancy, DVT, and cardiovascular risks, the need for ongoing monitoring (CBC and liver tests), and the fact that 12-week data are preliminary for long-term safety, while also acknowledging that some safety signals differ among JAK inhibitors and that real-world data are essential.

RhAPPcast: Switch, Don’t Cycle: Interpreting the SELECT-SWITCH Trial and What It Means for RA Care

Q: What are the key efficacy results and how should they be interpreted in clinical practice?

The trial found that switching to a different mechanism led to a higher proportion of patients achieving low disease activity or remission by 12 weeks, suggesting a practical advantage to moving beyond TNF cycling when patients fail initial TNF therapy, with results that align with current guidelines and real-world practice.

RhAPPcast: Switch, Don’t Cycle: Interpreting the SELECT-SWITCH Trial and What It Means for RA Care

Q: Why was a head-to-head trial like SelectSwitch required in RA management after TNF inhibitor failure?

To directly compare outcomes when switching to an alternate mechanism (adalimumab or JAK inhibitor) versus cycling within the same class, addressing a gap left by mostly open-label or registry studies that couldn't provide direct, randomized evidence on which strategy yields better disease control after TNF failure.

RhAPPcast: Foundations of PMR: Diagnosis, First-Line Therapy, and Tapering Strategies

Q: What are the common pitfalls or mimickers to watch for when diagnosing PMR?

Key pitfalls include not taking a detailed enough history and not ruling out other rheumatic diseases or conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, dermatomyositis, fibromyalgia, malignancy, or endocrine disorders; a thorough workup with targeted labs is essential.

RhAPPcast: Foundations of PMR: Diagnosis, First-Line Therapy, and Tapering Strategies

Q: How do you define PMR and what are the hallmark features that raise suspicion in primary or specialty care?

PMR is defined by autoimmune-like onset with proximal shoulder and hip girdle stiffness, often accompanied by malaise and elevated inflammatory markers, with age over 50 being a criterion; recognizing this classic presentation helps prompt appropriate therapy.
