MRI Inflammation Resolution and Axial Spondyloarthritis Outcomes
This study investigates the link between MRI-detected inflammation and clinical outcomes in axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) patients treated with a TNF inhibitor etanercept. Using data from the ESTHER trial, the study found a strong association between the resolution of inflammation on MRI and
improved clinical outcomes, as measured by the ASDAS score.
Specifically, reducing inflammation on sacroiliac joint MRI scans significantly predicted better clinical outcomes six months later.
This podcast is based on the publication Torgutalp M, et al. RMD Open. 2025 Jan 6;11(1):e004921.
