Important from @cappelliMD @jhrheumatology irAE cohort on predictors of DMARD requirement in ICI-inflammatory arthritis, and persistent ICI-IA post-ICI cessation.
The better we can predict these patients, the more we can get the right therapy early

The conclusion: Patients with pre-existing RA receiving ICI have similar risk of mortality and severe ir-AE compared to those without RA. But do have more ir-AE in general manifesting as mild RA flare

Thank you to Dr. Ann Bass @lovetolearn27 for interesting discussion re: safety of DMARDs for Rh-irAE's at recent CanRIO International Case Rounds. Study published April 2023 shows higher likelihood of cancer progression with TNFi and IL-6Ri compared to MTX
