Summary

In this episode of Joint Ventures, hosts Jack Arnold, MBBS, PhD, an academic clinical lecturer in rheumatology at the University of Leeds, and Rihards Buss, MD, a consultant rheumatologist at Freeman Hospital, Newcastle, turn from osteoarthritis to the inflammatory arthritides — examining what early data in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), and lupus can and cannot yet tell us about the role of GLP-1 receptor agonists in disease modification. “Everyone is talking about [GLP-1 RAs] and what it can do for our patients. Much more evidence is needed to be much more better understanding about increasing effects beyond weight loss is needed. And I think that evidence will be just coming out very rapidly, year by year… but I think this is not the case where we're going to wait for strong evidence, good quality RCT data before we start to start to use them,” Buss said.
