Bringing rheumatology closer to haematology. CAR-T therapy is showing tremendous promise in autoimmune conditions esp difficult to treat cases. #eular2025
Excited to present data from RESET-SSc in #scleroderma #eular2025. CAR-T was well tolerated with beneficial effects on skin/ FVC. Exciting data on U-M IIS with LN bx showing complete depletion of B cells at 3 weeks and NFC showing normalization of capillary density and size

EULAR/ERS presented their ILD guidelines at #eular25. They recommended screening in all pts with #scleroderma, MCTD and IIM. ACR/ Chest guidelines recommended screening in high risk groups in these CTDs. Who do you screen with above CTD's? I will summarize data and share views
