AB0467 EFFECTIVENESS OF GOLIMUMAB AFTER TNF-INHIBITOR FAILURE IN PATIENTS WITH ACTIVE RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS, PSORIATIC ARTHRITIS, OR AXIAL SPONDYLOART…

2021

Background:Golimumab showed trial efficacy in subjects with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) previously treated with TNF-inhibitors (TNFi); no trial data are available for psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA).Objectives:To assess the effectiveness of golimumab after TNFi failure in patients with RA, PsA, or axSpA in a real-world setting.Methods:GO-BEYOND-Italy is an ongoing, multicenter, prospective, observational study of RA, PsA, or axSpA patients starting golimumab after TNFi failure. Patients were enrolled between July 2017 and December 2019, and followed for 1 year, with evaluations at 3, 6, and 12 months. This interim analysis estimates the effectiveness after…

Two novel mutations at exon 8 of the Sequestosome 1 (SQSTM1) gene in an Italian series of patients affected by Paget's disease of bone (PDB).

2003

PDB is genetically heterogeneous. Mutations of the sequestosome1 gene have been reported in sporadic and familial forms of Paget's in patients of French Canadian and British descent. Mutational analyses in different ethnic groups are needed to accurately investigate hereditary diseases. We describe two novel mutations of sequestosome1 in 62 Italian sporadic patients, confirming the role of the encoded protein in this disorder. Introduction: Paget's disease of bone (PDB) is a relatively common disease of bone metabolism reported to affect up to 3% of whites over 55 years of age. The disorder is genetically heterogeneous, and at present, there is scientific evidence that at least eight differ…

Patient-reported impact of spondyloarthritis on work disability and working life: the ATLANTIS survey

2016

Background The aim was to establish how patients experience the impact of spondyloarthritis (SpA) on work disability and working life. Methods The survey was performed in 17/20 regions in Italy (1 January to 31 March 2013). A multiple-choice questionnaire was published on the official website of the sponsor - the National Association of Rheumatic Patients (ANMAR) - and hard-copies were distributed at outpatient clinics for rheumatic patients. Results Respondents (n = 770) were of both sexes (56 % men), educated (62 % at high school or more), of working age (75 % aged ≤60 years), and affected by SpA. The most common types diagnosed were ankylosing spondylitis (AS) (39 %) and psoriatic arthri…

Influence of Antisynthetase Antibodies Specificities on Antisynthetase Syndrome Clinical Spectrum Time Course

2019

Antisynthetase syndrome (ASSD) is a rare clinical condition that is characterized by the occurrence of a classic clinical triad, encompassing myositis, arthritis, and interstitial lung disease (ILD), along with specific autoantibodies that are addressed to different aminoacyl tRNA synthetases (ARS). Until now, it has been unknown whether the presence of a different ARS might affect the clinical presentation, evolution, and outcome of ASSD. In this study, we retrospectively recorded the time of onset, characteristics, clustering of triad findings, and survival of 828 ASSD patients (593 anti-Jo1, 95 anti-PL7, 84 anti-PL12, 38 anti-EJ, and 18 anti-OJ), referring to AENEAS (American and Europea…
