Case Report: Genetic Double Strike: VEXAS and TET2-Positive Myelodysplastic Syndrome in a Patient With Long-Standing Refractory Autoinflammatory Disease
Fabian Lötscher,Luca Seitz,H Simeunovic,Adina Sarbu,Naomi Porret,Laurence Feldmeyer,Luca Borradori,Nicolas Bonadies,Britta Maurer +8 more
TL;DR: This case illustrates that the triad of an unresponsive multisystemic autoinflammatory disease, hematological abnormalities and vacuoles in myeloid- and erythroid progenitors in the bone marrow biopsy should prompt screening for the VEXAS syndrome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tocilizumab monotherapy after ultra-short glucocorticoid administration in giant cell arteritis: a single-arm, open-label, proof-of-concept study
Lisa Christ,Luca Seitz,Godehard Scholz,Adela-Cristina Sarbu,Jennifer Amsler,Lukas Bütikofer,Christoph Tappeiner,Christoph Tappeiner,Florian Kollert,Stephan Reichenbach,Peter M. Villiger +10 more
TL;DR: The data show a slow remission-inducing and a lasting remission-maintaining effect of tocilizumab after an ultra-short pulse of glucocorticoids in patients with newly diagnosed giant cell arteritis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative ultrasound to monitor the vascular response to tocilizumab in giant cell arteritis.
Luca Seitz,Lisa Christ,Fabian Lötscher,Godehard Scholz,Adela-Cristina Sarbu,Lukas Bütikofer,Florian Kollert,Wolfgang A. Schmidt,Stephan Reichenbach,Peter M. Villiger +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of ultra-short glucocorticoids followed by Tocilizumab monotherapy on the intima-media thickness (IMT) in GCA patients was characterized.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors defined chronic ultrasound lesions of the axillary artery (AA) in long-standing giant cell arteritis (GCA) and evaluated the reliability of the new ultrasound definition in a web-based exercise.
