Abstract
BackgroundA treat-to-target approach for RA management is recommended.1,2 However, up to half of patients discontinue DMARD treatment within 18 months.2 Predictive biomarkers, such as anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs) and RF, may be useful to stratify patients to the most appropriate treatment. ACTION (AbataCepT In rOutiNe clinical practice; NCT02109666) and ASCORE (Abatacept SubCutaneOus in Routine Clinical PracticE; NCT02090556) were 2-year, international, observational, prospective, multicenter studies of IV and SC abatacept, respectively, for the treatment of RA in routine clinical practice.3,4 Higher retention has been previously reported in patients with double ACPA/RF seropositive RA compared with double ACPA/RF seronegative RA.3,4ObjectivesTo assess the independent effect of ACPA or RF single seropositivity on abatacept retention in patients with RA receiving abatacept in a post hoc analysis of ACTION and ASCORE.MethodsThis post hoc analysis included patients aged ≥ 18 years, with active moderate-to-severe RA (ACR/EULAR 2010 criteria) who initiated IV (body weight–adjusted dosing) or SC (125 mg once weekly) abatacept.3,4 Patients were stratified by baseline ACPA/RF status: ACPA+/RF− (ACPA+ only), ACPA/RF double positive (+/+), ACPA−/RF+ (RF+ only), and ACPA/RF double negative (−/−). Abatacept retention rate at 2 years was estimated by Kaplan–Meier (KM) analysis.ResultsPatients with ACPA/RF serostatus data from the ACTION and ASCORE studies (N = 1679 and N = 1748, respectively) were evaluated. Baseline demographic and disease characteristics were similar across studies and serostatus groups (Table 1). In patients with ACPA+ only RA, abatacept retention rates were similar to the +/+ group and greater than the RF+ only and −/− groups (Figure 1). In ASCORE (Figure 1A), retention rates were significantly higher in ACPA+ only and +/+ groups when compared with the −/− group. In contrast, retention rates for patients with RF+ only RA were not significantly different vs −/− patients. Results were similar in ACTION, although the higher retention in the ACPA+ group did not reach statistical significance (Figure 1B).Table 1.Baseline demographics and disease characteristics by ACPA/RF status for the ASCORE and ACTION studiesASCORE+/+RF+ onlyACPA+ only−/−(n = 1079)(n = 142)(n = 184)(n = 343)Age, years57.1 (12.8)58.2 (11.8)57.4 (13.5)57.8 (13.9)DAS28 (CRP)4.7 (1.2)4.6 (1.1)4.4 (1.0)4.8 (1.2)CDAI26.6 (12.5)25.8 (12.0)23.6 (10.9)28.2 (13.2)SDAI28.1 (13.0)27.2 (12.4)24.4 (10.8)29.7 (13.9)ACTION+/+RF+ onlyACPA+ only−/−(n = 1028)(n = 161)(n = 98)(n = 392)Age, years58.2 (12.0)58.4 (13.4)58.5 (14.0)57.0 (13.3)DAS28 (CRP)4.9 (1.1)5.0 (1.1)4.9 (1.0)5.0 (1.1)CDAI28.7 (12.2)29.2 (12.4)28.7 (11.5)30.1 (12.9)SDAI30.4 (13.1)31.2 (13.4)29.8 (11.5)31.7 (13.4)Data are mean (SD). Patients with missing data for baseline ACPA/RF status are excluded.ConclusionIn this post hoc analysis of the real-world ACTION and ASCORE studies, ACPA positivity was associated with an increased likelihood of retention over 2 years. Patients with ACPA+ only RA were equally as likely to be retained on abatacept as patients with ACPA/RF double positivity. In contrast, patients with RF+ only RA were less likely to be retained on abatacept over 2 years. These findings suggest that ACPA positivity played a more important role than RF positivity in abatacept retention. The higher retention seen in patients with ACPA+ only vs RF+ only disease demonstrates the key role of ACPA in RA and supports the importance of precision medicine in treating patients.References[1]Fraenkel L, et al.

Abstract
BackgroundThe goal of treatment for RA is achieving low disease activity and/or remission1,2; however, disease course and management can be complicated by additional factors that may be influenced by serostatus. Anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs) and RF contribute to a more severe RA disease pattern3 and may be useful in predicting response to treatment.4 ACTION (AbataCepT In rOutiNe clinical practice; NCT02109666) and ASCORE (Abatacept SubCutaneOus in Routine Clinical PracticE; NCT02090556) were 2-year, international, observational, prospective, multicenter studies of IV and SC abatacept, respectively, for the treatment of RA in routine clinical practice.4,5 Previous analyses have shown that ACPA/RF double-positive serostatus was associated with better treatment outcomes compared with ACPA/RF double-negative serostatus.4–6ObjectivesTo assess the independent effect of ACPA or RF single seropositivity among patients with RA on achieving remission after treatment with abatacept for 2 years, and to compare outcomes among patients with single versus double serostatus.MethodsThis post hoc analysis included patients from ACTION and ASCORE who initiated IV (body weight–adjusted dosing) or SC abatacept (125 mg once weekly), respectively. Patients were stratified by baseline ACPA/RF status: ACPA+/RF− (ACPA+ only), ACPA/RF double positive (+/+), ACPA−/RF+ (RF+ only), and ACPA/RF double negative (−/−). DAS28 (CRP) and CDAI remission rates (defined as < 2.6 and 0–2.8, respectively) at 2 years for patients who were ACPA+ or RF+ only at baseline were assessed and compared with those who were +/+ and −/−. Patients with missing baseline ACPA/RF status were excluded. Last observation carried forward efficacy analyses were used to impute missing values.ResultsThis analysis included 1679 patients from ACTION (ACPA+ only, n = 98; +/+, n = 1028; RF+ only, n = 161; and −/−, n = 392) and 1748 patients from ASCORE (ACPA+ only, n = 184; +/+, n = 1079; RF+ only, n = 142; and −/−, n = 343). Across studies and serogroups, baseline demographics and disease characteristics were similar (data not shown). In both ACTION and ASCORE, a higher proportion of patients who were only ACPA+ achieved DAS28 (CRP) and CDAI remission at 2 years compared with patients who were only RF+ (Figure 1). Additionally, a similar proportion of patients who were only ACPA+ achieved DAS28 (CRP) and CDAI remission at 2 years compared with patients who were +/+. In contrast, a lower proportion of patients who were only RF+ achieved DAS28 (CRP) and CDAI remission at 2 years compared with patients who were +/+.ConclusionIn this post hoc analysis of real-world data from ACTION and ASCORE, ACPA positivity was associated with an increased likelihood of achieving DAS28 (CRP) and CDAI remission at 2 years. Patients who were ACPA+ only were as likely to achieve remission as +/+ patients, suggesting that RF serostatus had less influence than ACPA serostatus on remission status at 2 years. In line with this, patients who were RF+ only were less likely to achieve remission at 2 years. This is the first large, real-world study to show that ACPA positivity plays a more important role than RF positivity in achieving remission whilst on abatacept. These results highlight the importance of assessing baseline ACPA status when considering treatment options for patients with RA.References[1]Smolen JS, et al.

Abstract
BackgroundInfections are the most commonly reported AE observed in patients with RA treated with immunosuppressive therapies and can be clinically significant. A recent review reported differences in the risk of infection for some biologics such as tocilizumab and TNF inhibitors.1 Abatacept selectively modulates T-cell co-stimulation and is approved for the treatment of RA. In patients with polyarticular-course juvenile idiopathic arthritis, no association was found between higher serum abatacept exposure and the incidence of infection.2 This has not been evaluated for adult patients with RA.ObjectivesTo determine if higher serum abatacept exposure during treatment with SC abatacept was associated with increased risk of infection in adult patients with RA.MethodsAVERT-2 (Assessing Very Early Rheumatoid arthritis Treatment-2) was a randomized, placebo-controlled study of SC abatacept + MTX vs abatacept placebo + MTX in MTX-naive, anti-citrullinated protein antibody–positive patients with early, active RA.3 A post hoc population pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis was performed using PK-evaluable patient data from the induction period (year 1) of AVERT-2. Association between steady-state abatacept exposure (min plasma concentration [Cmin], max plasma concentration [Cmax], and average plasma concentration [Cavg]) and first infection was evaluated using Kaplan–Meier plots of probability vs time on treatment by abatacept exposure quartiles and Cox proportional-hazards models.ResultsPK of SC abatacept was defined as a linear 2-compartment model with first-order absorption and first-order elimination. The findings of the updated PK analysis were consistent with those reported in prior population analyses of abatacept PK in adults with RA. The final model included effects of baseline body weight, estimated glomerular filtration rate, sex, age, albumin, MTX use, NSAID use, SJC, and race on abatacept clearance. The only covariate with a clinically relevant effect was higher body weight, which caused an increase in clearance and volume. Infections occurred in a total of 330/693 (47.6%; serious, 1.6%) patients treated with abatacept, and 134/301 (44.5%; serious, 1.3%) with placebo during the first year of AVERT-2. In patients taking abatacept, the mean (SD) study exposure to abatacept was 376 (60) days, while mean (SD) prednisone equivalent dose was 6.7 (3.8) mg/day and mean (SD) MTX dose was 9.6 (3.0) mg/week. No exposure–response relationship was observed between the probability of first infection and steady-state abatacept exposure quartiles (Cavg, Cmin, and Cmax), or compared with placebo (Figure 1A–C). Kaplan–Meier assessment also showed no increase in risk of infection with concomitant use of MTX and glucocorticoids.ConclusionNo association was found between initial infection and steady-state abatacept exposure (Cavg, Cmin, Cmax) or MTX and glucocorticoid use in patients with RA treated with SC abatacept.References[1]Jani M, et al.

Abstract
Background:RA is characterised by the production of autoantibodies, including RF and anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs).1 Seropositive disease is associated with poorer prognosis in patients with RA,2 and response to different treatments has been shown to vary based on ACPA status.3 ASCORE (Abatacept SubCutaneOus in Routine Clinical PracticE; NCT02090556) was a 2-year, observational, prospective, multicentre study of SC abatacept for the treatment of RA.4Objectives:This post hoc analysis of the ASCORE study evaluated patient-reported outcomes, assessed using HAQ-DI, by RF/ACPA serostatus and treatment line over 24 months of treatment with abatacept.Methods:Eligible patients, aged ≥18 years, with active moderate-to-severe RA (ACR/EULAR 2010 criteria) who were IV abatacept-naive and initiated SC abatacept 125 mg once weekly, were enrolled into two cohorts: biologic (b)DMARD-naive patients and those with ≥1 prior bDMARD treatment failure. This post hoc analysis assessed mean change from baseline in HAQ-DI score at 6, 12, 18 and 24 months in response to treatment with abatacept stratified by baseline serostatus (RF/ACPA double positive [+/+]; RF/ACPA single positive [+/−; RF+/ACPA– or RF–/ACPA+] or RF/ACPA double negative [–/–]) and by line of therapy (all patients, patients receiving abatacept as a first-line bDMARD or as a ≥ second-line bDMARD [data not shown], and those receiving abatacept following 1 [data not shown] or ≥2 prior bDMARDs). Estimates of mean difference with 95% CIs between patients with different serostatus were calculated using a t-test for all patients and within different lines of therapy.Results:Among 2892 eligible patients in ASCORE, 1748 patients with RF/ACPA status available at baseline were included in this analysis (1079 +/+, 326 +/– and 343 –/–). Of these, 791 patients received abatacept as a first-line bDMARD therapy and 957 as a ≥ second-line bDMARD therapy (505 patients had received ≥2 prior bDMARDs). Among all patients, mean change from baseline in HAQ-DI score at 6 months was greater for patients with +/+ RA (mean difference [95% CI]: –0.2 [–0.3, –0.0]; p=0.0068) or +/– RA (mean difference [95% CI]: –0.2 [–0.3, –0.0]; p=0.0315) versus those with –/– RA at baseline (Figure 1). Similarly, mean change (95% CI) in HAQ-DI score at 6 months was greater for patients with +/+ RA versus –/– RA among those receiving abatacept as first-line therapy (–0.2 [–0.4, –0.0]; p=0.0407) or following treatment with ≥2 bDMARDs (–0.3 [–0.5, –0.0]; p=0.0265) (Figure 1). Among patients treated with abatacept following ≥2 prior bDMARDs, mean change in HAQ-DI score was higher among patients with +/– RA versus –/– RA at 18 months (data not shown) and 24 months (Figure 1). No other significant differences were observed by serostatus or line of therapy at any other time points.Conclusion:Patients with RA who were RF+/ACPA+ at baseline showed an enhanced initial response to abatacept compared with those who were RF–/ACPA–. Over 24 months of treatment in this real-world setting, abatacept was equally effective as a first- or ≥ second-line therapy.References:[1]Scott DL, et al.

Abstract
Background:Up to 50% of patients with RA discontinue DMARD treatment within 18 months.1 However, up to 20% of patients who fail multiple treatments may have a good treatment response to another therapy.1 Predictive biomarkers, such as RF and anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs), may be useful to stratify patients with RA to the most appropriate treatment.1 ASCORE (Abatacept SubCutaneOus in Routine Clinical PracticE; NCT02090556) was a 2-year, observational, prospective, multicentre study of SC abatacept for the treatment of RA in routine clinical practice.2Objectives:To determine if RF/ACPA serostatus and treatment line impact abatacept retention in patients with RA in a post hoc analysis of ASCORE.Methods:Eligible patients, aged ≥18 years, with active moderate-to-severe RA (ACR/EULAR 2010 criteria) who were IV abatacept-naive and initiated SC abatacept 125 mg once weekly, were enrolled into two cohorts: biologic (b)DMARD-naive patients and those with ≥1 prior bDMARD treatment failure. This post hoc analysis assessed abatacept retention rate at 2 years in a subset of patients with RF/ACPA serostatus data (n=1748) from the ASCORE study (N=2892; as observed). Baseline (BL) serostatus groups examined by treatment line were: RF/ACPA double positive (+/+) RA, RF/ACPA single positive (RF+/ACPA– or RF–/ACPA+) RA (data not shown) and RF/ACPA double negative (–/–) RA. Last observation carried forward (LOCF) analyses were used to assess change from BL and measures of disease remission (DAS28 [CRP] <2.6, CDAI ≤2.8, and SDAI ≤3.3) in patients with +/+ RA versus –/– RA.Results:BL demographic and disease characteristics were similar across serostatus groups and treatment lines (Table 1). Mean age was 57.1 and 57.8 years for +/+ RA and –/– RA, respectively. Mean DAS28 (CRP) was 4.7 and 4.8 for +/+ RA and –/– RA, respectively. In patients with +/+ RA, abatacept retention was greater when given as first-line treatment (57% vs 48% when given as ≥ second-line) (Figure 1). Retention was similar in patients with –/– RA regardless of treatment line. After 2 years, mean (SE) change from BL (LOCF) in DAS28 (CRP) was –1.41 (0.06) and –0.97 (0.09) for patients with +/+ and –/– RA, respectively. For patients with +/+ RA, mean (SE) change from BL in DAS28 (CRP) was –1.62 (0.08) for those in whom abatacept was first-line and –1.19 (0.08) for those in whom abatacept was ≥ second-line. For patients with –/– RA, mean (SE) change from BL in DAS28 (CRP) was –1.03 (0.13) for those in whom abatacept was first-line and –0.93 (0.12) for those in whom abatacept was ≥ second-line. Remission rates (LOCF) were significantly (p<0.0001) higher in patients with +/+ RA vs –/– RA respectively: DAS28 (CRP) 38.4% (n=393) versus 19.3% (n=62); CDAI 50.6% (n=513) versus 33.0% (n=107); and SDAI 49.5% (n=497) versus 32.5% (n=102).Table 1.BL demographics and disease characteristics by RF/ACPA status+/+ RA(n=1079)–/– RA(n=343)First-line (n=511)≥ second-line (n=568)First-line(n=140)≥ second-line(n=203)Age57.1 (13.4)57.1 (12.2)59.5 (14.7)56.6 (13.2)DAS28 (CRP)4.7 (1.2)4.7 (1.2)4.8 (1.1)4.8 (1.2)CDAI26.6 (12.5)26.6 (12.4)27.7 (12.5)28.6 (13.8)SDAI28.1 (13.1)28.1 (12.9)29.1 (12.9)30.2 (14.7)Data are mean (SD).

Remission rates on abatacept were higher in patients with +/+ RA versus –/– RA. These results support early treatment with abatacept and highlight the importance of further evaluating precision medicine approaches in RA.References:[1]Smolen JS, et al.

Abstract
Background:In the ACTION (NCT02109666) study, multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression models showed that the predictors of 1-year retention to abatacept treatment were: patient global pain assessment, country, reason for stopping last biologic, number of prior biologic treatments, abatacept monotherapy, RF/anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) status, previous neoplasms, psychiatric disorders and cardiac disorders.1 Machine learning techniques, using the gradient-boosting model, subsequently identified additional predictors of abatacept retention in patients with moderate-to-severe RA enrolled in ACTION; however, the analysis did not show the directionality of the predictors.2Objectives:To improve the clinical interpretability of the machine learning model in terms of directionality and the importance of each variable in predicting retention.Methods:Previous analyses using the gradient-boosting model to identify predictors of abatacept retention at 1 year in the ACTION study have been described.2 This analysis used SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP), a mathematical framework, to show how a particular predictor value influences prediction in the context of all other predictors. Higher SHAP values indicate a higher likelihood of retention. The contribution of every variable in the model’s prediction (with the exception of country variables) was computed for each data point to capture individual variable impact. This enabled interpretation for level of importance and directionality at a patient level.Results:Using data from 2350 patients enrolled in ACTION (May 2008 to December 2013), the mean retention rate at 1 year was 59.3% (n=1393). Overall variable importance is shown in Figure 1. After removal of country variables, the top five baseline predictors of retention were: no previous corticosteroid use, ACR functional class II, ≥2 prior biologic treatments prior to abatacept initiation, abatacept monotherapy and HAQ-DI. In terms of directionality, no previous corticosteroid use, ≥2 prior biologic treatments prior to abatacept initiation, abatacept monotherapy and a higher HAQ-DI score at baseline were associated with a lower likelihood of retention; ACR functional class II was associated with a higher likelihood of retention.Conclusion:The gradient-boosting model previously identified predictors of abatacept retention from ACTION;2 the addition of SHAP in this analysis has provided information on the importance and directionality of those predictors. The most important predictor of abatacept retention was no previous corticosteroid use, which was associated with lower retention. The models and predictors identified could be further refined by using additional datasets from clinical trials. Machine learning offers an innovative and complementary approach to biostatistics and could be used to identify treatment response predictors at an individual patient level, leading to a more personalised treatment approach.References:[1]Alten R, et al.

Abstract
Background:RF and anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs) are associated with a severe and aggressive disease course in patients with RA.1 Abatacept is a selective co-stimulation modulator for the treatment of RA.2 ASCORE (Abatacept SubCutaneOus in Routine Clinical PracticE; NCT02090556) was a 2-year, observational, prospective, multicentre study of SC abatacept for the treatment of RA in routine clinical practice.3Objectives:To determine if serostatus and treatment line impacted disease activity in patients enrolled in the ASCORE study.Methods:Eligible patients, aged ≥18 years, with active moderate-to-severe RA (ACR/EULAR 2010 criteria) who were IV abatacept-naive and initiated SC abatacept 125 mg once weekly, were enrolled into two cohorts: biologic (b)DMARD-naive patients and those with ≥1 prior bDMARD treatment failure. This post hoc analysis assessed the mean change in disease activity (CDAI, SDAI and DAS28 [ESR]) from baseline (BL) at 6, 12, 18 and 24 months in response to treatment with abatacept. Patients were stratified by BL serostatus (all patients, RF/ACPA double positive [+/+] RA; RF/ACPA single positive [+/–; RF+/ACPA– or RF–/ACPA+] RA and RF/ACPA double negative [–/–] RA) and by line of therapy (all patients, patients receiving abatacept as a first-line or ≥ second-line therapy and those receiving abatacept following 1 or ≥2 prior bDMARDs). Overall patient data, as well as data for patients who were +/– or those who had 1 or ≥2 previous bDMARDs, are not shown. Estimates of mean difference are from t-test.Results:Among 2892 eligible patients in ASCORE, 1748 patients with RF/ACPA status available at BL were included in this analysis (1079 +/+ RA, 326 +/− RA and 343 −/− RA). After 6 months, patients with +/+ RA on first-line abatacept therapy had better improvements in CDAI and SDAI scores from BL than patients on ≥ second-line abatacept therapy (mean difference [95% CI]: –3.4 [–5.6, –1.1]; p=0.0032 and –3.9 [–6.5, –1.3]; p=0.0035, respectively); better improvements in SDAI were also seen after 12 months (mean difference [95% CI]: –3.5 [–6.5, –0.5]; p=0.0207). Changes in CDAI and SDAI scores were comparable after 18 and 24 months. At 6 and 12 months, patients with +/+ RA on first-line therapy had better improvements from BL in DAS28 (ESR) than those on ≥ second-line therapy (mean differences [95% CI]: –0.5 [–0.8, –0.2]; p=0.0002 and –0.4 [–0.7, –0.0]; p=0.0317, respectively); changes were comparable at 18 and 24 months (Figure 1). For patients on ≥ second-line therapy, at 18 months those with +/+ RA had better improvements from BL in DAS28 (ESR) than those with –/– RA (mean difference [95% CI]: –0.7 [–1.2, –0.1]; p=0.0232). For patients not stratified by line of therapy, changes in DAS28 (ESR) were comparable between the +/+ and –/– RA subgroups over time, with the exception of 6 months where patients with –/– RA had better improvements from BL compared with patients with +/+ RA (mean difference [95% CI]: –0.3 [–0.6, –0.0]; p=0.0495).Conclusion:In this real-world, post hoc analysis, patients with +/+ RA who received abatacept as a first-line therapy had greater early improvements in disease activity compared with patients who received abatacept as a ≥ second-line therapy. Improvements in disease activity at 24 months were comparable between patients who were +/+ and those who were –/–. Larger studies are needed to further corroborate these findings.References:[1]Katchamart W, et al. Rheumatol Int 2015;35:1693–1699.[2]Malmström V, et al.

Abstract
Background:Longer disease duration and greater number of prior DMARDs have been associated with lower treatment efficacy in patients with RA.1 Abatacept is a biologic (b)DMARD for treatment of moderate-to-severe RA and is available in SC formulation, which may offer convenience benefits with efficacy similar to IV administration.2 ASCORE (Abatacept SubCutaneOus in Routine Clinical PracticE; NCT02090556) was a 2-year, observational, prospective, multicentre study of SC abatacept for treatment of RA in routine clinical practice.3Objectives:This post hoc analysis was conducted to determine if retention and efficacy of abatacept were impacted by disease duration and/or treatment line.Methods:Eligible patients, aged ≥18 years, with active moderate-to-severe RA (ACR/EULAR 2010 criteria) who were IV abatacept-naive and initiated SC abatacept 125 mg once weekly, were enrolled into two cohorts: bDMARD-naive patients and those with ≥1 prior bDMARD treatment failure. This post hoc analysis evaluated abatacept retention using Kaplan-Meier estimates, as well as disease activity scores (DAS28 [ESR]), CDAI and SDAI in patients with disease duration of ≤2, 3–5, 6–10 or >10 years, and in patients taking abatacept as first-line or ≥ second-line treatment.Results:Table 1 shows baseline (BL) characteristics. Mean age increased with disease duration; other characteristics were comparable across groups. Retention proportions (95% CIs) at Month 24 were 0.50 (0.4, 0.5), 0.47 (0.4, 0.5), 0.51 (0.5, 0.5) and 0.46 (0.4, 0.5) in the ≤2, 3–5, 6–10 and >10 years’ duration groups, respectively. Proportion of patients (95% CI) with ≤2 years’ duration retaining treatment at Month 24 were 0.51 (0.4, 0.6) among those using abatacept as first-line treatment and 0.44 (0.3, 0.6) among those using abatacept as a ≥ second-line treatment (Figure 1). Proportions (95% CI) at Month 24 were 0.51 (0.5, 0.6), 0.57 (0.5, 0.6) and 0.52 (0.5, 0.6) in first-line patients and 0.43 (0.4, 0.5), 0.48 (0.4, 0.5) and 0.44 (0.4, 0.5) in ≥ second-line patients in the 3–5, 6–10 and >10 years’ duration groups, respectively. Mean (SE) changes from BL in DAS28 (ESR) at Month 24 were –2.12 (0.205), –1.86 (0.151), –2.07 (0.140) and –2.05 (0.115) in the ≤2, 3–5, 6–10 and >10 years’ duration groups, respectively; respective mean (SE) changes in CDAI were –18.74 (1.604), –15.60 (1.099), –18.50 (1.038) and –17.68 (0.850); and respective mean (SE) changes in SDAI were –19.10 (1.873), –15.72 (1.345), –19.54 (1.103) and –17.07 (0.939).Conclusion:In this post hoc analysis of the real-world ASCORE trial, patients with RA receiving abatacept in clinical practice as first-line therapy had better retention versus those receiving it as a ≥ second-line treatment, regardless of disease duration at BL. Retention rates were similar across disease duration subgroups. Improvements in disease activity were seen in all duration subgroups, without consistently greater or lesser improvement seen with longer disease duration.References:[1]Aletaha D, et al.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Polyvascular disease constitutes a powerful predictor of cardiovascular events, is found in 10 to 15% of chronic coronary syndromes (CCS) patient. Smoking and diabetes mellitus are strongly associated with polyvascular disease. Risk stratification is key to select the most appropriate therapeutic strategy for a given patient.
Purpose
We aimed to describe 5-year ischaemic risk of CCS patients according to vascular disease phenotype and diabetic or smoking status.
Method
We analyzed data from 32 703 consecutive CCS outpatients (45 countries) enrolled between November 2009 to June 2010 in the prospective observational CLARIFY registry. Three mutually exclusive groups were compared: Coronary artery disease (CAD) alone, CAD with peripheral artery disease (PAD) or cerebrovascular disease (CVD) (CAD+1), CAD with CVD and PAD (CAD+2). Primary outcome was a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction or stroke, adjusted on age, sex and geographic origin at 5 years.
Results
At baseline, 26440 (80.8%) patients were diagnosed with CAD alone, 4967 (15.2%) had CAD+1, 1296 (4%) had CAD+2. Overall, 9501 (29%) patients were diabetics, 19184 (58.7%) were smokers or ex-smokers and only 9220 (28.2%) were free of these two major cardiovascular risk factors. Primary outcome increasing gradually according to the number of arterial diseases locations from 8.4% (95% CI 8.09–8.73) in patients with CAD alone to 17.4% (95% CI 16.95–17.83) of CAD+2 patients (p<0.001). Subgroup analysis according to diabetes or smoking status further enriched risk stratification from 7% (95% CI 6.48–7.59) in non-diabetic, non-smoking CAD alone patients to 20.3% (95% CI 19.08–21.44) in diabetics and smokers CAD+ 2 patients (Figure 1). Diabetic CAD alone patients had a comparable risk to that of non-diabetic and non-smoking polyvascular patients, 9.8% (95% CI 8.82–10.68) vs 10.3% (95% CI 9.61–10.96), p=0.38. Outcome was similar between polyvascular diabetic patients, regardless of the number of arterial diseases, 15.5% (95% CI 14.31–16.60) for CAD+1 and 15.0 (95% CI 13.88–16.13) for CAD+2, p=0.83. Smoking increased 5-year risk proportionally to the number of symptomatic arterial bed, 8.2% (95% CI 7.72–8.68) vs 11.8% (95% CI 11.18–12.31) vs 17.9% (95% CI 17.18–18.54), respectively for CAD alone, CAD+1 and CAD+2.
Conclusion
CCS patients with polyvascular disease remain at high risk of ischaemic events in the contemporary practice with widespread secondary prevention therapies. Polyvascular is a very heterogenous subset of patients with ischaemic risk varying not only according to the number of vascular bed diseased but also according to smoking and diabetes status, two conditions present in the vast majority of CCS patients. Diabetes confers upfront a maximal increased risk. Identification of higher risk subsets in polyvascular patients can potentially identify those that could derived the greatest benefit from new secondary prevention strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Following the publication of the COMPASS trial, the European Medicines Agency has approved a regimen of combination of rivaroxaban 2.5mg twice daily and a daily dose of 75-100mg acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) for patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) or symptomatic peripheral artery disease (PAD) at high risk of ischemic events. However, the applicability of such a therapeutic strategy in France is currently unknown. AIMS To describe the proportion of patients eligible to COMPASS in France, their baseline clinical characteristics and the rate of major adverse cardiovascular events, using the REACH registry. METHODS From the the REduction of Atherothrombosis for Continued Health (REACH) registry database, a large international registry of patients with, or at risk, of atherothrombosis, we analyzed patients included in France with either established CAD and/or PAD and fulfilling the inclusion and exclusion criteria of the COMPASS trial. The ischemic outcome was a composite of cardiovascular (CV) death, myocardial infarction (MI), or stroke, and serious bleeding were defined as haemorrhagic stroke or bleeding leading to hospitalization or transfusion. RESULTS Among more than 65000 patients enrolled in REACH, 2.012 patients were evaluable and enrolled in France. Among them, 1194 patients (59.3%) were eligible to COMPASS. The main reasons for exclusion of the COMPASS trial, were high bleeding risk (59.1%), anticoagulant use (43.4%), requirement for dual antiplatelet therapy within 1 year of an ACS or PCI (24.7%). In the "COMPASS eligible population", the rate of MACE (CV, MI and stroke) at 4 years follow-up was 13.4% [11.3-15.8], and serious bleeding was 2.5% at 4 years [1.6-3.4]. Patients with polyvascular disease (n=219) had the highest rate of MACE, compared with patients with CAD only and PAD only (19.1% [13.9-26.1] vs. 11.6% [9.1-14.8] vs 13.2% [9.2-18.8], P<0.0001, respectively). CONCLUSION The COMPASS therapeutic strategy in France appears to be applicable to more than half of CAD or PAD patients. This population appears at high residual risk of atherothrombotic events, and patients with polyvascular disease experienced the highest rate of events.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The benefits and risks of blood transfusion in patients with acute myocardial infarction who are anemic or who experience bleeding are debated. We sought to study the association between blood transfusion and ischemic outcomes according to haemoglobin nadir and bleeding status in patients with NST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). METHODS The TAO trial randomized patients with NSTEMI and coronary angiogram scheduled within 72h to heparin plus eptifibatide versus otamixaban. After exclusion of patients who underwent coronary artery bypass surgery, patients were categorized according to transfusion status considering transfusion as a time-varying covariate. The primary ischemic outcome was the composite of all-cause death or MI within 180 days of randomization. Subgroup analyses were performed according to pre-transfusion hemoglobin nadir and bleeding status. RESULTS 12,547 patients were enrolled. Among these, blood transfusion was used in 489 (3.9%) patients. Patients who received transfusion had a higher rate of death or MI (29.9% vs. 8.1%, p<0.01). This excess risk persisted after adjustment on GRACE score and nadir of hemoglobin (HR 3.36 95%CI 2.63-4.29 p<0.01). Subgroup analyses showed that blood transfusion was associated with a higher risk in patients without overt bleeding (adjusted HR 6.25 vs. 2.85; p-interaction 0.001) as well as in those with hemoglobin nadir > 9.0 g/dl (HR 4.01; p-interaction<0.0001). CONCLUSION In patients with NSTEMI, blood transfusion was associated with an overall increased risk of ischaemic events. However, this was mainly driven by patients without overt bleeding and those hemoglobin nadir > 9.0g/dl. This suggests possible harm of transfusion in those groups.

Abstract
Favorable efficacy and safety profiles have been demonstrated for abatacept in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in randomized controlled trials, but these data require validation during long-term follow-ups in routine clinical practice. This study explored long-term safety and retention rates in RA patients treated with intravenous abatacept in the Belgian cohort of the international AbataCepT In rOutiNe clinical practice (ACTION) study (NCT02109666). This non-interventional, observational, longitudinal study included Belgian patients aged ≥ 18 years with moderate-to-severe RA who started intravenous abatacept treatment as first- or second/further-line biologic therapy in routine clinical practice. Between October 2010 and December 2012, 141 patients were enrolled in this cohort, of whom 135 evaluable patients (6 biologic-naïve; 129 previously exposed to ≥ 1 prior biologic disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs) were eligible for the descriptive analysis; 131/135 were included in the effectiveness analysis. Mean disease duration was 10.5 years (standard deviation 9.7) before abatacept initiation. RA patients presented with high disease activity and comorbidity rate, having failed multiple previous treatment options. In this cohort, the 5-year abatacept retention rate was 34% (95% confidence interval, 23-45%) per protocol, and 51% (95% confidence interval, 40-61%) when temporary discontinuations of abatacept > 84 days (n = 24) were not considered as treatment discontinuations. After 5 years of abatacept treatment, clinical outcomes were favorable [good/moderate European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) responses in 91.7% patients]. No new safety signals were detected for abatacept in routine clinical practice. In this difficult-to-treat Belgian RA population, high retention rates, good clinical outcomes and favorable safety profile were observed with abatacept.

Abstract
Background:The Phase IIIbAssessingVeryEarlyRATreatment (AVERT)-2 trial (NCT02504268) evaluated SC abatacept (ABA) + MTX vs ABA placebo (PBO) + MTX in ACPA+ patients (pts) with early, active RA.1Results from the 56-wk induction period (IP) showed a significantly greater proportion of pts treated with ABA + MTX (vs MTX alone) reported clinically meaningful improvements in HAQ-DI, global disease activity and pain, which were sustained at 52 wks.2Objectives:To report maintenance of SDAI remission and PROs from the AVERT-2 de-escalation (D-E) period.Methods:Pts received blinded SC ABA (125 mg once wkly [QW]) + MTX or ABA PBO + MTX induction treatment for 56 wks. In this analysis, pts who completed induction with ABA + MTX and had sustained SDAI remission (≤3.3 at Wks 40 and 52) were re-randomised 1:1:1 to ABA QW + MTX, stepwise D-E (ABA every other wk + MTX for 24 wks then ABA PBO + MTX for 24 wks), or ABA QW + MTX PBO for 48 wks in the D-E period. PROs included physical function (HAQ-DI [0–3; decrease=improvement] and Short-Form 36 [SF-36] v2.0 Physical Functioning Scale [PFS]; 0–100; increase=improvement), and fatigue (Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue [FACIT-F] score; 0–52; decrease=improvement). Endpoints included: proportion of pts in SDAI remission and pts with HAQ-DI response (decrease from IP Day [D]1 in HAQ-DI ≥0.30); adjusted mean change (adMC) from D-E D1 in HAQ-DI, SF-36 PFS or FACIT-F to D-E Wk 48. adMCs were estimated using a mixed effect model with repeated measures.Results:147 ABA + MTX-treated pts were re-randomised in the D-E period. Across re-randomised arms, the range of mean scores was 1.87–2.52 for SDAI and 0.18–0.30 for HAQ-DI at entry into D-E period (D-E D1). 74% of pts receiving ABA QW + MTX maintained SDAI remission at D-E Wk 48 (Fig 1); this proportion was higher than in the ABA withdrawal and ABA QW + MTX PBO arms. Pts continuing ABA QW + MTX maintained HAQ-DI response during D-E (Fig 1), but by D-E Wk 48 the proportion of pts with HAQ-DI response in the ABA withdrawal arm declined by 30%. At D-E Wk 48, a small numerical decrease (adMC –0.04) in HAQ-DI was observed in the ABA QW + MTX arm; increases were seen in the withdrawal (adMC 0.26) and ABA QW + MTX PBO arms (adMC 0.16). By D-E Wk 48, SF-36 PFS increased (adMC 1.68) in the ABA QW + MTX arm but decreased in the withdrawal (adMC –3.34) and ABA QW + MTX PBO (adMC –1.45) arms. FACIT-F score increased during D-E in all arms, but the increase at D-E Wk 48 was lower in the ABA QW + MTX arm (adMC 0.79) vs the withdrawal (adMC 4.12) and ABA QW + MTX PBO (adMC 2.41) arms. Similar trends were seen for other PROs including Work Productivity and Activity Impairment-RA; while activity impairment remained stable in the ABA QW + MTX arm, there was a trend for worsening in the withdrawal arm.Conclusion:In the AVERT-2 D-E period, continued combination therapy (abatacept + MTX) resulted in maintenance of benefits on PROs, particularly physical functioning, in seropositive pts with early RA. D-E of abatacept followed by complete withdrawal was associated with the greatest loss of remission as well as worsening of PROs. The PRO results corresponded well to the maintenance of clinical (SDAI) remission.References:[1]Emery P, et al. ACR 2018; San Diego, USA: Poster 563.[2]Emery P, et al.

Abstract
Background:In the 56-wk induction period (IP) of the Phase IIIbAssessingVeryEarlyRATreatment (AVERT)-2 trial (NCT02504268), more patients (pts) achieved SDAI remission (≤3.3) with abatacept (ABA) + MTX vs ABA placebo (PBO) + MTX at IP Wk 52.1It is unknown whether each individual pt within a treatment (Tx) group achieves and sustains the same efficacy endpoints at all time points during the IP.Objectives:To investigate whether ABA effectiveness is sustained by individual pts who achieved SDAI remission (≤3.3), SDAI low disease activity (LDA; >3.3–11), DAS28 (CRP) <2.6, ACR50/70 response or Boolean remission at IP Wk 24 (AVERT-2 primary endpoint) and both Wks 40 and 52 (Wks 40/52).Methods:Pts were randomised 3:2 to blinded SC ABA (125 mg/wk) + MTX or ABA PBO + MTX induction Tx for 56 wks. Key inclusion criteria: age ≥18 yrs; RA diagnosis (ACR/EULAR 2010 criteria); RA duration ≤6 mos; SDAI >11; ACPA+; CRP >3 mg/L or ESR ≥28 mm/h; TJC ≥3 and SJC ≥3; DMARD naïve. Response rates were investigated by Tx arm in the cohort 1 analysis population (all randomised pts treated in the IP [intent-to-treat analysis]).Results:Of randomised cohort 1, 752 pts were treated during the IP: 451 with ABA + MTX and 301 with ABA PBO + MTX. Baseline characteristics were similar across Tx arms.1Stringent SDAI remission endpoint at IP Wk 24 was achieved by 22% of ABA + MTX-treated pts; of these, 56% sustained SDAI remission at IP Wks 40/52 (Table). A similar proportion of ABA + MTX-treated pts achieved (17%) and sustained (58%) Boolean remission at IP Wks 24 and 40/52. At IP Wk 24, 42% of ABA + MTX-treated pts achieved DAS28 (CRP) <2.6 and 74% sustained DAS28 (CRP) <2.6 to IP Wks 40/52; a high proportion of patients sustained ACR50/70 responses at IP Wks 40/52 (83% and 79%, respectively). A lower proportion of pts sustained SDAI LDA to IP Wks 40/52 vs other endpoints (Table). Most efficacy endpoints were achieved by fewer pts who received ABA PBO + MTX than ABA + MTX (Table); among responders in this Tx group, fewer sustained remission at Wks 40/52, which correlates with a higher proportion of pts sustaining SDAI LDA at Wks 40/52 with ABA PBO + MTX than ABA + MTX.Conclusion:The majority of individual pts with RA who achieved clinically stringent endpoints such as SDAI remission, DAS28 (CRP) <2.6 or Boolean remission, as well as clinically meaningful endpoints such as ACR50/70 at IP Wk 24 with weekly SC abatacept, sustained their responses to Wks 40/52. The high proportion of patients achieving early stringent remission and response to SC abatacept by individual pts may be indicative of sustained efficacy over time.References:[1]Emery P, et al.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
There is uncertainty regarding whether female sex is an independent predictor of adverse outcomes in acute coronary syndromes (ACS).
Purpose
We sought to describe and compare ischemic and bleeding outcomes between men and women with Non–ST-segment–Elevation (NSTE) ACS enrolled in the large Treatment of Acute coronary syndromes with Otamixaban (TAO) trial in which antithrombotic treatment was standardized and a systematic invasive approach was performed.
Methods
The TAO trial randomized moderate to high-risk NSTE-ACS patients with diagnostic coronary angiography planned in the first 72 hours to heparin plus eptifibatide versus otamixaban. This post-hoc analysis describes ischemic (all-cause death, new myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis within 180 days of randomization) and bleeding outcomes (TIMI major and minor bleeding within 30 days of randomization) according to sex.
Results
Of 13,229 patients with NSTE-ACS randomized in 55 countries, 3,980 (30.1%) were female and 9,249 (69.9%) were male. Mean age was 64.8±11.0 and 60.7±11.1 years, respectively. The prevalence of diabetes (34.0% vs. 25.8%), hypertension (80.8% vs. 67.0%), and hypercholesterolemia (55.9% vs. 52.2%) was higher among women compared with men but current smoking (21.5% vs. 38.7%) and history of previous MI were more frequent in males (15.5% vs. 20.7%).
Females experienced a higher incidence of both ischemic outcomes (10.2% vs. 9.1%; OR=1.15; 95% CI, 1.01–1.30; p=0.034) and bleeding events (4.1% vs. 3.4%; OR=1.23; 95% CI, 1.02–1.49; p=0.029). Bleeding risk and CV death were particularly increased in women younger than 50 years, compared to males of the same age, at 5.5% vs. 1.4% (OR=4.00; 95% CI, 2.13–7.69; p=0.034) and 1.7% vs. 0.5% (OR=4.35; 95% CI, 1.02–20.00; p=0.02), respectively. No difference in either outcome was found between women and men between 50 and 80 years old. Above 80 years, women experienced a lower rate of bleeding (3.9% vs. 7.8%; OR=0.47; 95% CI, 0.23–0.88; p=0.024) but a similar rate of in ischemic events (16.0% vs. 17.2%; OR=0.92; 95% CI, 0.63–1.33; p=0.67).
After adjustment for age, body weight, diabetes mellitus, prior PCI, serum creatinine, presenting systolic blood pressure, elevated biomarker at presentation, heart failure, the risk of ischemic (OR=1.03; 95% CI, 0.89–1.18; p=0.71) and bleeding events (OR=1.05; 95% CI, 0.85–1.33; p=0.65) were similar between men and women.
Conclusions
In this large international randomized trial of NSTE-ACS with standardized invasive management, women (particularly those younger than 50 years) experienced higher risks of ischemic and bleeding events than men, but the difference was not sustained after adjustment. In this population, sex was not an independent predictor of adverse outcomes in NSTE-ACS. The type of ACS (NSTE-ACS) and routine invasive management in women and men may explain this absence of difference.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The prevalence, and prognostic implication of left bundle branch block (LBBB) in general population and patients admitted for acute myocardial infarction (MI) as been extensively studied. However, data are scarce about patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) and it remains unclear whether LBBB is only a marker of a severe cardiomyopathy or an independent predictor of events in these patients.
Purpose
We aimed to describe the prevalence, incidence and prognostic implications of LBBB in patients with stable CAD. Additionally, we aimed to describe the incidence of newly diagnosed LBBB that occurred without recent myocardial infarction.
Methods
CLARIFY is an international registry of more than 30.000 patients with stable CAD. LBBB was collected at baseline and at each follow-up visit, and patients were considered to have LBBB if the length of the QRS complex was of more than 120 milliseconds. Patients with previous pacemaker implantation of internal cardiac defibrillator were excluded. The primary outcome was a composite of cardiovascular (CV) Death, MI or stroke, and secondary outcomes included hospitalization for heart failure (HF) or the need for pacemaker implantation.
Results
From the 23.457 patients with available data regarding LBBB status, 1.041 (4.4%) had LBBB at baseline and 1.237 (5.3%) had at least one LBBB assessed during 5-year follow-up. Only 21 patients with newly diagnosed LBBB overtime, had a documented MI the same year. Compared to patients without LBBB, patients with LBBB had a higher risk profile regarding age (67.2±10.1 versus 63.6±10.4 years, p<0.0001), history of coronary artery bypass grafting (29.2% vs 23.7%, p<0.0001), diabetes (35.1% vs 28.4%, p<0.0001), and HF (25.2% vs 16.8%, p<0.0001) (Table). In unadjusted analysis, patients with LBBB had a higher risk of primary outcome (13.4% vs 8.7%, p<0.0001) and each secondary outcome. In multivariate analysis taking into account several possible confounders, there was no difference in the rate of CV death, MI or stroke between LBBB or no-LBBB patients (adjusted HR 1.04, 95% CI 0.85–1.29). However, patients with LBBB had a higher rate of pacemaker implantation (adjusted HR 2.21, 95% CI 1.55–3.15, p<0.0001) and hospitalization for HF (adjusted HR 1.53, 95% CI 1.25–1.88, p<0.0001) (Figure).
Outcomes according to LBBB status
Conclusion
The prevalence of LBBB in patients with stable CAD was 4.4% and 5.3% with 5-year follow-up. The overwhelming majority of newly diagnosed LBBB were not contemporary of documented myocardial infarction. LBBB was not associated with a higher rate of major adverse cardiovascular events, including all cause mortality but with a higher risk of pacemaker implantation and hospitalization for heart failure. To our knowledge this is the first study reporting such results in a broad population of stable CAD patients.
