Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES There is a paucity of online educational content targeting children and young people with uveitis. We evaluated the impact of a co-designed patient education video on subjective and objective understanding of childhood uveitis. SUBJECTS/METHODS Co-designed patient education media were produced in collaboration with the Childhood Uveitis Studies steering group and the Great Ormond Street Hospital Generation R Young People's Advisory Group and narrated by children. Patients managed within the Uveitis service at GOSH were invited to take part in a pre-post survey, undertaken immediately prior to and following viewing of a patient education video. RESULTS Forty-three patients participated. These were stratified according to age, duration of disease, and treatment type for analysis. Self-rated knowledge improved across all groups (p = 0.001), particularly in those with a new diagnosis of uveitis (Z = -8.124, p < 0.001). Objective knowledge scores improved across all questions, especially in younger children, those with new disease, and those on steroid only treatment (Z = -3.847, p < 0.001, Z = -3.975, p < 0.001, Z = -3.448, p < 0.001; respectively). Most participants reported the videos to be easy to understand and with the right amount of information. All stated that they learned something new. CONCLUSIONS Patient understanding of disease and treatment is crucial to achieving the best possible outcomes for this chronic, relapsing remitting and potentially blinding disorder. Our findings data shows the potential value of co-designed patient information videos, specifically in our study benefitting younger patients and those recently diagnosed. We suggest that other clinical teams could collaborate fruitfully with patient groups to develop similar videos to target possible misinformation and potentially improve patient outcomes.

Clin Rheumatol 2024; 43:799-808. [PMID: 37845415 DOI: 10.1007/s10067-023-06793-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2023] [Revised: 10/08/2023] [Accepted: 10/09/2023] [Indexed: 10/18/2023]
Abstract
Scleritis is an inflammation of the episcleral and scleral tissues, characterized by injection in both superficial and deep episcleral vessels. When only episcleral tissue is involved, it is referred to as episcleritis. Episcleritis is mainly idiopathic but may be secondary to an underlying rheumatologic disease. Despite being rare, drug-associated episcleritis and scleritis should also be included in the differential diagnosis. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) inhibitors are generally well-tolerated, but etanercept, in particular, has the potential to cause paradoxical adverse reactions including ocular inflammations, such as uveitis, scleritis, and ocular myositis. Etanercept differs in its mechanism of action from other TNF-α inhibitors as it acts as a decoy receptor, and this may partly explain the more frequently reported etanercept-associated ocular inflammation. Etanercept may also be ineffective in preventing ocular inflammation. However, the dechallenge and rechallenge phenomena have proven there is a causative link between etanercept and new-onset ocular inflammation. We report a case of a 15-year-old boy with enthesitis-related arthritis and familial Mediterranean fever who presented with episcleritis and blepharitis while receiving etanercept treatment and subsequently showed dechallenge and rechallenge reactions. Therefore, physicians should also be aware that episcleritis should be considered a paradoxical adverse reaction to etanercept and can occur in pediatric patients. We also reviewed the English literature to provide an overview and evaluate intervention options.

Occurrence of adverse events and change in disease activity after initiation of etanercept in paediatric patients with juvenile psoriatic arthritis in the CARRA Registry. RMD Open 2023; 9:rmdopen-2022-002943.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Etanercept is commonly used to treat juvenile idiopathic arthritis, including juvenile psoriatic arthritis (JPsA); however, information on etanercept's safety and effectiveness in clinical practice is limited. We used data from the Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance (CARRA) Registry to evaluate etanercept's safety and effectiveness in JPsA in clinical practice. METHODS We analysed safety and effectiveness data for paediatric patients enrolled in the CARRA Registry who had a JPsA diagnosis and had used etanercept. Safety was assessed by calculating rates of prespecified adverse events of special interest (AESIs) and serious adverse events (SAEs). Effectiveness was assessed by a variety of disease activity measures. RESULTS Overall, 226 patients had JPsA and received etanercept; 191 met criteria for safety analysis and 43 met criteria for effectiveness analysis. AESI and SAE incidence rates were low. There were five events: three uveitis, one new-onset neuropathy and one malignancy. Incidence rates were 0.55 (95% CI: 0.18, 1.69), 0.18 (95% CI: 0.03, 1.29) and 0.13 (95% CI: 0.02, 0.09) per 100 patient-years for uveitis, neuropathy and malignancy, respectively. Etanercept showed effectiveness for JPsA treatment; 7 of 15 (46.7%) had an American College of Rheumatology-Pediatric Response 90, 9 of 25 (36.0%) had a clinical Juvenile Arthritis Disease Activity Score 10-joint ≤1.1 and 14 of 27 (51.9%) had clinically inactive disease at the 6-month follow-up. CONCLUSION Data in the CARRA Registry showed that etanercept treatment was safe in treating children with JPsA, with low AESIs and SAEs. Etanercept was also effective, even when assessed in a small sample size.

Methotrexate therapy associated with a reduced rate of new-onset uveitis in patients with biological-naïve juvenile idiopathic arthritis. RMD Open 2023; 9:rmdopen-2023-003010. [PMID: 37094979 PMCID: PMC10151999 DOI: 10.1136/rmdopen-2023-003010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2023] [Accepted: 04/03/2023] [Indexed: 04/26/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the effect of methotrexate (MTX) therapy on new-onset uveitis in patients with biological-naïve juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). METHODS In this matched case-control study, we compared MTX exposure between cases with JIA-associated chronic uveitis (JIA-U) and patients with JIA and without JIA-U at the time of matching (controls). Data were collected from electronic health records of the University Medical Centre Utrecht, the Netherlands. Cases with JIA-U were matched 1:1 to JIA control patients based on JIA diagnosis date, age at JIA diagnosis, JIA subtype, antinuclear antibodies status and disease duration. The effect of MTX on JIA-U onset was analysed using a multivariable time-varying Cox regression analysis. RESULTS Ninety-two patients with JIA were included and characteristics were similar between cases with JIA-U (n=46) and controls (n=46). Both ever-use of MTX and exposure years were lower in cases with JIA-U than in controls. Cases with JIA-U significantly more often discontinued MTX treatment (p=0.03) and out of those who did, 50% afterwards developed uveitis within 1 year. On adjusted analysis, MTX was associated with a significantly reduced new-onset uveitis rate (HR: 0.35; 95% CI: 0.17 to 0.75). No different effect was observed between a low (<10 mg/m2/week) and standard MTX dose (≥10 mg/m2/week). CONCLUSION This study demonstrates an independent protective effect of MTX on new-onset uveitis in patients with biological-naïve JIA. Clinicians might consider early initiation of MTX in patients at high uveitis risk. We advocate more frequent ophthalmologic screening in the first 6-12 months after MTX discontinuation.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine uveitis incidence in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) patients treated with disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARD) medications, and to evaluate uveitis risk-stratification protocols. DESIGN Retrospective clinical cohort study. METHODS Medical records of patients with JIA seen by ophthalmology at a single institution from April 2014 to April 2022 and ≥18 months' follow-up were reviewed. Exclusion criteria included uveitis history prior to study period, Still disease, or <18 months' follow-up. Patient characteristics, medications, and uveitis status were recorded. Factors associated with uveitis development were analyzed and statistically significant metrics used to determine empiric risk-stratification criteria. These criteria and American College of Rheumatology (ACR) risk-stratification guidelines were applied retroactively to determine predictive power. RESULTS One hundred eighty-four patients met inclusion criteria and were included. Twenty-one new cases of uveitis developed during the study period. There were no statistically significant differences between no DMARD treatment, methotrexate (MTX), and etanercept (ETA) groups in uveitis incidence, whereas the adalimumab (ADA) and other biologics groups had no uveitis cases. Under the empirically determined criteria, the ratio of uveitis incidence between high- and low-risk groups was 8.21 (2.68-33.55; P < .0001), whereas it was 1.90 (0.72-4.93; P = .15) under the ACR criteria. CONCLUSION Patients on MTX, ETA, and no DMARD treatment were comparable in JIA-associated uveitis incidence, whereas there were no new cases with ADA or other biologics. Further, we found increased predictive power in the empiric criteria in comparison to current ACR risk stratification.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To analyze therapy adherence, safety, and outcome in adult patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) treated with the etanercept biosimilar Benepali® (Biogen Inc, Cambridge, USA). METHODS Data from the prospective registry, JuMBO (Juvenile arthritis MTX/Biologics long-term Observation), were used for the analysis. JuMBO is a long-term observational cohort study. It follows adult patients with JIA who were formerly included in the national JIA biologic register (BiKeR Registry). Both registries provide individual trajectories of clinical data and outcomes from childhood to adulthood in JIA patients treated with disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs). RESULTS Eighty-three patients from the German JuMBO registry were treated with Benepali®. Of these, 74% had switched from Enbrel® (Pfizer Inc., NYC, USA) the originator of etanercept to Benepali® for cost reasons. Therapy survival of patients treated with Benepali® in comparison to Enbrel® in patients matched by significant parameters was comparable. Adverse events (AE) were reported in 25.3% and serious adverse events (SAE) in 9.6% of patients. Physicians rated no SAE causative related to Benepali®. The majority of SAEs were surgical/medical procedures and there was only one infection. All efficacy parameters (cJADAS-10, Physician Global Assessment, number of joints with active arthritis, patients' overall well-being, pain, and HAQ) demonstrated improvement over 24 months (p-values were not significant). 9.6% of patients permanently discontinued Benepali® because of an AE. CONCLUSIONS Tolerability and effectiveness of the biosimilar Benepali® were satisfactory and therapy survival was comparable to the originator. Further data on therapy with biologics and biosimilars such as Benepali® must be collected by registries such as BiKeR and JuMBO in order to optimize therapy and patient outcomes and to reduce costs in the health system in the long term.

Abstract
Childhood noninfectious uveitis leads to sight-threatening complications. Idiopathic chronic anterior uveitis and juvenile idiopathic arthritis-associated uveitis are most common. Inflammation arises from an immune response against antigens within the eye. Ophthalmic work-up evaluates anatomic involvement, disease activity, ocular complications, and disease course. Local and/or systemic glucocorticoids are initial treatment, but not as long-term sole therapy to avoid glucocorticoids-induced toxicity or persistent ocular inflammation. Children with recurrent, refractory, or severe disease require systemic immunosuppression with methotrexate and/or anti-tumor necrosis factor monoclonal antibody medications (adalimumab, infliximab). Goals of early detection and treatment are to optimize vision in childhood uveitis.

Abstract
Treatments of numerous systemic and local diseases of different etiologies may be accompanied by an unwanted side effect in the form of uveitis. We inform readers about medications that have the potential to cause uveitis and analyze the strength of association of these medications with uveitis. Subsequently, cessation of medication or appropriate treatment can be individualized for each patient for the purpose of preventing further damage to tissue structure and function. Being aware of these associations, physicians may readily identify medications that may cause uveitis and avoid expensive and unnecessary clinical and laboratory testing.

Childhood uveitis comprises a collection of heterogenous ocular phenotypes which are associated with a diverse range of childhood autoimmune and autoinflammatory disorders. Of these genetic and/or acquired disorders, juvenile idiopathic arthritis is the most common, affecting 30-80% of children with uveitis. Up to a third of children with uveitis have 'isolated' idiopathic disease and do not have an associated systemic disease which manifests in childhood. However, uveitis may be the presenting manifestation of disease; thus, the apparently well child who presents with uveitis may have isolated idiopathic disease, but they may have an evolving systemic disorder. The diagnosis of most of the associated disorders is reliant on clinical features rather than serological or genetic investigations, necessitating detailed medical history taking and systemic examination. Adequate control of inflammation is key to good visual outcomes, and multidisciplinary care is key to good broader health outcomes.

Abstract
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the commonest rheumatic disease in children and JIA-associated uveitis its most frequent extra-articular manifestation. The uveitis is potentially sight-threatening and so carries a considerable risk of morbidity. The commonest form of uveitis seen in JIA is chronic anterior uveitis which is almost always asymptomatic in the initial stages. Therefore, screening for JIA-associated uveitis in at-risk patients is essential. The aim of early detection and treatment is to minimise intra-ocular inflammation and avoid complications leading to visual loss, resulting from both disease activity and medications. There is increasing evidence for the early introduction of systemic immunosuppressive therapies in order to reduce topical and systemic glucocorticoid use. Two randomised controlled trials of adalimumab in JIA-associated uveitis provide convincing evidence for the use of this biologic in patients who fail to respond adequately to methotrexate. Tocilizumab and baricitinib are being investigated as alternatives to anti-tumour necrosis factor drugs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS There is a paucity of high-level evidence to support the management of childhood uveitis, particularly for those children without juvenile idiopathic arthritis uveitis (JIA). We undertook a modified Delphi consensus exercise to identify agreement in the management of chronic anterior uveitis (CAU), the most common manifestation of childhood disease. METHODS A four-round, two-panel process was undertaken between June and December 2017. Paediatric uveitis specialists identified through multiple sources, including a multicentre network (the Paediatric Ocular Inflammation Group), were invited to participate. They were asked whether they agreed with items derived from existing guidelines on the management of JIA-U when extrapolated to the population of all children with CAU. Consensus was defined as agreement greater than or equal to 75% of respondents. RESULTS 26 of the 38 (68%) invited specialists participated with the exercise, and response rates were 100% for rounds one to three, and 92% for round four. Consensus was reached on 23 of the 44 items. Items for which consensus was not reached included management at presentation, use of systemic and periocular steroids for children with severe disease and the role of conventional steroid sparing immunosuppressants beyond methotrexate. CONCLUSION The areas of management uncertainty at the level of the group, as indicated by absence of consensus, reflect the areas where the evidence base is particularly poor. Our findings identify the key areas for the future research needed to ensure better outcomes for this blinding childhood ocular inflammatory disorders.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop recommendations for the screening, monitoring, and treatment of uveitis in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). METHODS Pediatric rheumatologists, ophthalmologists with expertise in uveitis, patient representatives, and methodologists generated key clinical questions to be addressed by this guideline. This was followed by a systematic literature review and rating of the available evidence according to the GRADE (Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation) methodology. A group consensus process was used to compose the final recommendations and grade their strength as conditional or strong. RESULTS Due to a lack of literature with good quality of evidence, recommendations were formulated on the basis of available evidence and a consensus expert opinion. Regular ophthalmic screening of children with JIA is recommended because of the risk of uveitis, and the frequency of screening should be based on individual risk factors. Regular ophthalmic monitoring of children with uveitis is recommended, and intervals should be based on ocular examination findings and treatment regimen. Ophthalmic monitoring recommendations were strong primarily because of concerns of vision-threatening complications of uveitis with infrequent monitoring. Topical glucocorticoids should be used as initial treatment to achieve control of inflammation. Methotrexate and the monoclonal antibody tumor necrosis factor inhibitors adalimumab and infliximab are recommended when systemic treatment is needed for the management of uveitis. The timely addition of nonbiologic and biologic drugs is recommended to maintain uveitis control in children who are at continued risk of vision loss. CONCLUSION This guideline provides direction for clinicians and patients/parents making decisions on the screening, monitoring, and management of children with JIA and uveitis, using GRADE methodology and informed by a consensus process with input from rheumatology and ophthalmology experts, current literature, and patient/parent preferences and values.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW There is mounting evidence supporting the use of biologic therapeutics for the management of noninfectious uveitis (NIU). This review highlights: biologics with documented efficacy in NIU; agents with ongoing evaluation for efficacy in uveitis; and therapeutics for which investigation for efficacy in NIU is warranted. RECENT FINDINGS The tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) inhibitor adalimumab has recently gained approval by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of noninfectious intermediate, posterior, and panuveitis. There is mounting evidence supporting the use of tocilizumab and rituximab in NIU. There is developing interest in evaluating the interleukin (IL)-23 inhibitors for efficacy in NIU. SUMMARY The TNF-α inhibitors adalimumab and infliximab have the greatest body of data supporting their use in NIU. These agents are considered second-line therapy for most forms of NIU but may be considered first-line therapy for uveitis associated with Behçet's disease and juvenile idiopathic arthritis. The B-cell inhibitor rituximab and the IL-6 inhibitor tocilizumab also have documented efficacy in NIU. Tocilizumab and interferon therapy may be particularly efficacious in the management of uveitic macular edema. The IL-23 inhibitors and janus kinase inhibitors are agents whose efficacy in NIU will likely be determined in the near future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Uveitis is the most common extra-articular manifestation of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). It occurs, according to German registry data, in around 12% of JIA patients and can lead to a loss of vision, especially in cases of delayed diagnosis and/or inadequate therapy. OBJECTIVE A review of current aspects of diagnosis and therapy was carried out. MATERIAL AND METHODS This is a review article of the current literature. RESULTS The risk of uveitis is significantly elevated in patients with an oligoarticular course of JIA, ANA positivity and young age at onset of JIA. During the mostly asymptomatic course of uveitis severe complications, such as cataracts, glaucoma or macular edema can occur, limiting visual acuity. Early detection of uveitis and interdisciplinary cooperation of uveitis specialists and pediatric rheumatologists is of major importance to ensure a favorable long-term prognosis. The initial therapy consists of topical steroids; however, in cases of insufficient response or complicated course of uveitis, conventional synthetic (mainly methotrexate) or biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) are required. In respect to bDMARDs, the highest evidence exists for treatment with adalimumab; however, depending on the clinical course of disease, other bDMARDs, such as infliximab, golimumab, tocilizumab, abatacept or rituximab may also have a beneficial effect. Despite these treatment options, uveitis or arthritis may frequently persist into adult age. Adequate and early recognition and treatment of uveitis-related complications is of major importance to ensure a good long-term visual prognosis. CONCLUSION Early diagnosis of JIA-associated uveitis and early implementation of effective treatment, especially steroid-sparing DMARD therapy, aims at achieving uveitis inactivity and prevention of ocular damage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Uveitis in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIAU) is frequently associated with the development of complications and visual loss. Topical corticosteroids are the first line therapy, and disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) are commonly used. However, treatment has not been standardized. METHODS Interdisciplinary guideline were developed with representatives from the German Ophthalmological Society, Society for Paediatric Rheumatology, Professional Association of Ophthalmologists, German Society for Rheumatology, parents' group, moderated by the Association of the Scientific Medical Societies in Germany. A systematic literature analysis in MEDLINE was performed, evidence and recommendations were graded, an algorithm for anti-inflammatory treatment and final statements were discussed in a consensus meeting (Nominal Group Technique), a preliminary draft was fine-tuned and discussed thereafter by all participants (Delphi procedure). RESULTS Consensus was reached on recommendations, including a standardized treatment strategy according to uveitis severity in the individual patient. Thus, methotrexate shall be introduced for uveitis not responding to low-dose (≤ 2 applications/day) topical corticosteroids, and a TNFalpha antibody (preferably adalimumab) used, if uveitis inactivity is not achieved. In very severe active uveitis with uveitis-related deterioration of vision, systemic corticosteroids should be considered for bridging until DMARDs take effect. If TNFalpha antibodies fail to take effect or lose effect, another biological should be selected (tocilizumab, abatacept or rituximab). De-escalation of DMARDs should be preceded by a period of ≥ 2 years of uveitis inactivity. CONCLUSIONS An interdisciplinary, evidence-based treatment guideline for JIAU is presented.

Abstract
The introduction of biologic agents opened a new era of treatment of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) over the past decade. From clinical experience, it appears that biological agents are well tolerated overall, and serious adverse events are rare. However, such clinical studies have not been conducted in Korea. Therefore, we examined the safety profile of JIA patients with biologics in a single center in Korea. All JIA outpatients treated from April 2004 to June 2013 were enrolled and retrospectively reviewed. Pharmacy-based surveillance of adverse drug events (ADEs) was identified by recording the patient's symptoms in the medical record and suspected ADEs were additionally explored by screening laboratory test values and observing changes in medication orders. Finally, 83 patients were enrolled and experienced 109 ADEs in 52 patients. Most ADEs (99.1%) were mild to moderate in severity assessment. The total follow-up time was 328 patient-treatment years and the overall rate of ADEs was 0.33 per patient-years for etanercept. Infection including upper respiratory tract was the most common ADE and concomitant corticosteroids contributed to the risk of infections. If the dose of prednisolone increases 0.34 mg/kg/day, the probability of developing infections increases 3.29 times. Also, all 11 patients who stopped etanercept with injection site reactions were receiving a single use prefilled syringe. In our study, etanercept appears well tolerated and safe. Children affected by JIA should be carefully monitoring so as to limit the risk of ADEs during etanercept as much as possible. To gain further knowledge about risk profiles, national collaboration for the accumulation of long-term data should be encouraged in Korea.

Abstract
Conventional immunosuppressive drugs, anti-TNF alpha and other biotherapies used in clinical practice are capable of controlling non-infectious anterior uveitis, posterior uveitis and panuveitis. The present work has been led by a multidisciplinary panel of experts, internists, rheumatologists and ophthalmologists and is based on a review of the literature. In case of corticodependency or sight-threatening disease, conventional immunosuppressive drugs (methotrexate, azathioprine and mycophenolate mofetil) and/or anti-TNF alpha (adalimumab, infliximab) are used to achieve and maintain remission. Interferon is an efficient immunomodulatory treatment, as a second-line therapy, for some therapeutic indications (refractory macular edema, Behçet's vascularitis). Other biologics, especially tocilizumab, are showing promising results. Local treatments (corticosteroids, sirolimus etc.) are adjuvant therapies in case of unilateral inflammatory relapse. Therapeutic response must be evaluated precisely by clinical examination and repeated complementary investigations (laser flare photometry, multimodal imaging, perimetry, electroretinography measures).

Abstract
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the commonest rheumatic disease in children and JIA-associated uveitis its most frequent extra-articular manifestation. The uveitis is potentially sight-threatening and thus carries a considerable risk of morbidity with associated reduction in quality of life. The commonest form of uveitis seen in association with JIA is chronic anterior uveitis, which is almost always asymptomatic in the initial stages. Therefore, screening for JIA-associated uveitis in at-risk patients is essential. The aim of early detection and treatment is to minimise intraocular inflammation and to avoid complications that lead to visual loss, which can result from both disease activity and medications. The sight-threatening complications of JIA-associated uveitis include cataracts, glaucoma, band keratopathy, and macular oedema. There is increasing evidence for the early introduction of systemic immunosuppressive therapies to reduce topical and systemic use of glucocorticoids. A recently published randomised controlled trial of adalimumab in JIA-associated uveitis now provides convincing evidence for the use of this biologic in patients who fail to respond adequately to methotrexate. Tocilizumab and abatacept are being investigated as alternatives in children inadequately treated with anti-tumour necrosis factor drugs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the efficacy and safety of adalimumab on uveitis in patients with early onset, chronic, juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA)-associated or idiopathic anterior uveitis and an inadequate response to topical steroids and methotrexate (MTX). METHODS Patients aged 4 years or more with ocular inflammation quantified by laser flare photometry (LFP) ≥30 photon units/ms were double-blindly randomised (1:1) to 2 groups, one treated with placebo and one with adalimumab subcutaneously at a dose of 24 mg/m2 in patients aged <13 years, 40 mg in the others, every other week. The primary outcome was response at month 2 (M2) defined as a 30% reduction of inflammation on LFP in the assessable eye with more severe baseline inflammation and no worsening on slit lamp examination. From M2 to M12, all patients received adalimumab. RESULTS At M2, among 31 patients included in intention-to-treat analysis, there were 9/16 responders on adalimumab and 3/15 on placebo (P=0.038, Χ2 test; relative risk=2.81, 95% CI 0.94 to 8.45; risk difference: 36.3%, 95% CI 2.1 to 60.6); there was no significant difference using the Standardised Uveitis Nomenclature classification criteria of improvement. Thirty patients continued the trial after M2 and received adalimumab (open-label phase), 29 reached M12. There were seven serious adverse events none related to study treatment. CONCLUSIONS This trial is in favour of using adalimumab in patients with early onset, chronic anterior uveitis, which is in most cases associated with JIA, in case of inadequate response to topical therapy and MTX. LFP could be a valuable tool to assess early treatment efficacy. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT01385826.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The review provides updates on novel risk markers for the development of pediatric inflammatory uveitis and a severe disease course, on treatment of refractory disease, and on the measurement of visual outcomes. RECENT FINDINGS There are several new genetic markers, biomarkers, and clinical factors that may influence a child's uveitis disease course. It is important to identify children at risk for poor visual outcomes and who are refractory to traditional therapy. Racial disparities have recently been reported. We describe agents of potential benefit. In addition, we discuss the importance of patient reported outcomes in this population. SUMMARY Uveitis can lead to vision-threatening complications. Timely and aggressive treatment of children identified to be at risk for a severe uveitis course may lead to improved outcomes.

Predictors of the response to etanercept in patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis without systemic manifestations within 12 months: results of an open-label, prospective study conducted at the National Scientific and Practical Center of Children's Health, Russia. Pediatr Rheumatol Online J 2017; 15:51. [PMID: 28615036 PMCID: PMC5471744 DOI: 10.1186/s12969-017-0178-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2017] [Accepted: 06/02/2017] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of etanercept treatment and to identify predictors of response to therapy within 12 months in patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) without systemic manifestations. METHODS A total of 197 juvenile patients were enrolled in this study. Response to therapy was assessed using the ACRPedi 30/50/70/90 criteria, the Wallace criteria, and the Juvenile Arthritis Disease Activity Score 71 (JADAS-71). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify potential baseline factors associated with treatment response in different JIA categories. RESULTS One year after treatment initiation, 179 (90.9%) patients achieved ACRPedi30; 177 (89.8%) patients achieved ACRPedi50; 168 (85.3%) patients achieved ACRPedi70; and 135 (68.5%) patients achieved ACRPedi90 response. A total of 132 (67.0%) and 92 (46.7%) patients achieved inactive disease according to the Wallace criteria and the JADAS-71 cut-off point, respectively. Excellent response (achieving ACRPedi90 and clinically inactive disease according both to the Wallace criteria and the JADAS71 cut-off point) was associated with persistent oligoarticular JIA category, shorter disease duration before the start of etanercept, a lower number of DMARDs used before the introduction of etanercept, a lower number of joints with limited motion, and lower C-reactive protein at baseline. Poor response (failure to achieve ACR 70 or active disease according to both the Wallace criteria and JADAS71 even when ACR 70 was achieved) was associated with the polyarticular or enthesitis-related JIA categories, higher disease duration before the start of etanercept, and older age at disease onset. CONCLUSION Almost half (45.7%) of the patients who initiated etanercept treatment achieved an excellent response (inactive disease and ACRPedi90) after 1 year. What may be novel is our finding that the response to etanercept therapy was strongly associated with the JIA category. The response to etanercept therapy was also associated with the disease duration before the start of etanercept treatment.

Abstract
Objectives This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of adalimumab as a first line biologic agent in specific subtypes of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) patients with associated uveitis. Patients and methods We retrospectively analyzed the data of 11 JIA patients (8 males, 3 females; mean age 14.5 years; range 9 to 18 years) with associated uveitis treated with biologic therapy. All patients were diagnosed as oligoarticular/extended oligoarticular or enthesitis-related JIA subtypes, treated with methotrexate, and had active or previous history of uveitis for which adalimumab was prescribed. We tested all patients for anti-nuclear antibody presence and human leukocyte antigen genotype. We assessed disease activity and therapy efficacy by American College of Rheumatology 50%, 70%, and 100% improvement criteria. We evaluated uveitis activity by slit-lamp biomicroscopy and recorded adverse events. Results Of the JIA patients, three (27.27%) had oligoarticular/extended oligoarticular JIA and eight (72.73%) had enthesitis-related arthritis. Anti-nuclear antibody positivity was present in 27.27% (all females) while human leukocyte antigen-B51 was determined in 62.5% and human leukocyte antigen-B27 in 12.5% of patients. Mean uveitis duration before adalimumab introduction was 12.3 months. After two years of follow-up, there were no relapses of uveitis and visual acuity was stable while on adalimumab and methotrexate treatment. All patient were gradually tapered and discontinued treatment with topical steroids. Disease activity improved and seven patients (63.64%) achieved American College of Rheumatology 100% response rate (attained remission), while four patients (36.36%) achieved American College of Rheumatology 70% response rate. Conclusion Anti-nuclear antibody positivity with oligoarticular/extended oligoarticular and enthesitis-related arthritis JIA subtypes, which are known for their high risk to develop uveitis, may benefit from adalimumab as a first line anti-tumor necrosis factor agent.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment response, remission rates and compliance in patients with polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (polyJIA) treated with adalimumab, etanercept, or tocilizumab were analyzed in clinical practice. METHODS Data collected in the German BIKER registry were analyzed in patients with polyJIA who started treatment with approved biologics, adalimumab, etanercept or tocilizumab, from 2011 to 2015. Baseline patient characteristics, treatment response, safety and drug survival were compared. RESULTS Two hundred thirty-six patient started adalimumab, 419 etanercept and 74 tocilizumab, with differences in baseline patient characteristics. Baseline Juvenile Disease Activity Score (JADAS)10 (mean ± SD) in the adalimumab/etanercept/tocilizumab cohorts was 12.1+/-7.6, 13.8 ± 7.1 and 15.1 ± 7.4, respectively (adalimumab vs etanercept, p = 0.01), and Childhood Health Assessment Questionnaire (CHAQ)-disability index scores was 0.43 ± 0.58, 0.59 ± 0.6 and 0.63 ± 0.55, respectively (adalimumab vs etanercept, p < 0.001). Uveitis history was more frequent in the adalimumab cohort (OR 5.73; p < 0.001). Balanced patients' samples were obtained by a generalized propensity score to adjust for baseline differences. Pediatric ACR30/50/70/90 criterion improvement after 3 months treatment was achieved by 68%/60%/42%/24% in the etanercept cohort, 67%/59%/43%/27% in the adalimumab cohort and 61%/52%/35%/26% in the tocilizumab cohort. At 24 months, JADAS minimal disease activity was achieved in 52.4%/61.3%/52.4% and JADAS remission in 27.9%/34.8%/27.9% patients in the adalimumab/etanercept/tocilizumab cohorts, respectively. Etanercept was used in 95.5% of patients as a first biologic, adalimumab in 50.8% and tocilizumab in 20.2%. There were no important differences in efficacy between first-line and second-line use of biologics. In total 60.4%/49.4%/31.1% patients discontinued adalimumab/etanercept/tocilizumab, respectively (HR for adalimumab 1.67; p < 0.001; HR for tocilizumab 0.35; p = 0.001). Drug survival rates did not differ significantly in patients on biologic monotherapy compared with combination therapy with methotrexate. Over 4 years observation under etanercept/adalimumab/tocilizumab, 996/386/103 adverse events, and 148/119/26 serious adverse events, respectively, were reported. CONCLUSIONS In clinical practice, etanercept is most frequently used as first-line biologic. Adalimumab/etanercept/tocilizumab showed comparable efficacy toward polyJIA. Overall, tolerance was acceptable. Interestingly, compliance was highest with tocilizumab and lowest with adalimumab. This study provides the first indication for the comparison of different biologic agents in polyarticular JIA based on observational study data with all their weaknesses and demonstrates the need for well-controlled head-to-head studies for confirmation.

The TNF inhibitors etanercept (ETA) and adalimumab (ADA) are approved for treating patients older than 2 years with polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Because long-term experience of treating children younger than 4 years is limited, we evaluated the efficacy and safety of ETA or ADA in patients aged 2-4 years. This prospective, long-term, observational registry study documented baseline demographics, clinical characteristics, disease activity parameters, and safety of patients treated with ETA or ADA. Efficacy was determined using the JADAS-10, the JADAS criteria for minimal disease activity (MDA) and remission, and the PedACR response criteria after 3, 6, 12, 18, and 24 months. Between January 2001 and March 2015, 85 patients with polyarticular JIA aged 2-4 years started anti-TNF-α treatment. Seventy-four (54 girls) patients were treated with ETA and 11 (7 girls) with ADA. After 6/12/24 months of treatment, JADAS-MDA was reached by 55/58/58 % of ETA patients and 50/71/66 % of ADA patients. Furthermore, JADAS-Remission was achieved by 35/44/50 % of ETA patients and 16/28/66 % of ADA patients. PedACR 50/70/90 response was achieved by 64/54/41 % of ETA patients and 56/33/22 % of ADA patients at the last treatment observation. Discontinuation because of remission or inefficacy was recorded in 24 (29 %) and 28 (33 %) patients, respectively. Seventy-nine adverse events and four serious adverse events were reported. Administration of ETA and ADA in JIA patients younger than 4 years was efficacious, well tolerated, and safe. Patients younger than 4 years may show marked improvement following anti-TNF-alpha therapy.

Abstract
Paradoxical adverse events (PAEs) have been reported during biological treatment for chronic immune-mediated diseases. PAEs are defined as the occurrence during biological agent therapy of a pathological condition that usually responds to this class of drug. A wide range of PAEs have been reported including dermatological, intestinal and ophthalmic conditions, mainly with antitumour necrosis factor α (TNF-α) agents. True PAEs include psoriasis, Crohn's disease and hidradenitis suppurativa. Other PAEs may be qualified as borderline and include uveitis, scleritis, sarcoidosis and other granulomatous diseases (granuloma annulare, interstitial granulomatous dermatitis), vasculitis, vitiligo and alopecia areata. Proposed hypotheses to explain these PAEs include an imbalance in cytokine production, the differential immunological properties between the monoclonal antibodies and TNF-α soluble receptor, an unopposed type I interferon production and a shift towards a Th1/Th2 profile. Data from registries suggest that the risk for paradoxical psoriasis is low and non-significant. We discuss management of these PAEs, which depends on the type and severity of the adverse events, pre-existing treated conditions and the possibility of alternative therapeutic options for the underlying disease. Paradoxical adverse events are not restricted to anti-TNF-α agents and close surveillance of new available biological drugs (anti-interleukin-17/23, anti-integrin) is warranted in order to detect the occurrence of new or as yet undescribed events.

Abstract
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the most common rheumatic disease of childhood, with JIA-associated uveitis its most common extra-articular manifestation. JIA-associated uveitis is a potentially sight-threatening condition and thus carries a considerable risk of morbidity. The aetiology of the condition is autoimmune in nature with the predominant involvement of CD4(+) T cells. However, the underlying pathogenic mechanisms remain unclear, particularly regarding interplay between genetic and environmental factors. JIA-associated uveitis comes in several forms, but the most common presentation is of the chronic anterior uveitis type. This condition is usually asymptomatic and thus screening for JIA-associated uveitis in at-risk patients is paramount. Early detection and treatment aims to stop inflammation and prevent the development of complications leading to visual loss, which can occur due to both active disease and burden of disease treatment. Visually disabling complications of JIA-associated uveitis include cataracts, glaucoma, band keratopathy and macular oedema. There is a growing body of evidence for the early introduction of systemic immunosuppressive therapies in order to reduce topical and systemic glucocorticoid use. This includes more traditional treatments, such as methotrexate, as well as newer biological therapies. This review highlights the epidemiology of JIA-associated uveitis, the underlying pathogenesis and how affected patients may present. The current guidelines and criteria for screening, diagnosis and monitoring are discussed along with approaches to management.
