    Abstract The expertise of both dermatology and rheumatology may be beneficial when managing autoimmune conditions with cutaneous and systemic manifestations in children. This survey study was directed to pediatric dermatologists who participate in combined pediatric dermatology-rheumatology clinics; 13 sites in North America responded. The results provide information regarding clinic operations, benefits, and barriers to establishment. These findings have the potential to help institutions establish or modify combined pediatric dermatology-rheumatology clinics, although further research is needed to determine their impact.

    Abstract Objectives: Most juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) trials used an open-label run-in period followed by randomized medication withdrawal. We used data from the run-in period of 4 bDMARD trials to 1) delineate early response trajectory to bDMARDs and 2) identify predictors of early response.
    Methods: Data from the first 16 weeks of 4 bDMARD trials were used. The primary outcome was the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) Pediatric 50 (Pedi 50) response criteria: clinically significant response defined as ACR Pedi 50 or greater. The secondary outcome was the clinical Juvenile Arthritis Disease Activity Score in 10 joints (cJADAS10) minimal disease activity state. Response transition rates and predictors were modeled using an inhomogeneous Markov multistate model.
    Results: Five hundred thirty-two participants (70% receiving methotrexate, 41% prednisone) were included. By month 4, the probability of attaining ACR Pedi 50 or greater was 0.698. If ACR Pedi 50 or more was not achieved by month 1, the probability of achieving it by month 4 was 0.60. If ACR Pedi 50 or more was not achieved by month 3, the probability of achieving this by month 4 was 0.31. Age at diagnosis, disease duration, baseline rheumatoid factor, and active joint counts predicted ACR and cJADAS state transitions, adjusted for concomitant treatment.
    Conclusions: No response ACR Pedi 50 or more by month 1 after treatment was associated with a 0.60 probability of responding by month 4, but not responding by month 3 was associated with a 0.31 probability of response by month 4. Baseline disease duration, rheumatoid factor, and active joint counts predicted early treatment response (ACR and cJADAS10 states).

    Abstract Reliable and responsive outcome measures that accurately detect changes in disease state, activity, and damage are crucial to conducting observational and interventional trials that can directly transform care for children with rheumatic disease. A combination of consensus-based and direct measurement approaches has led to the development of several validated, composite outcome measures in juvenile idiopathic arthritis, juvenile dermatomyositis, childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus, and pediatric vasculitis. This review outlines clinician-reported, disease-specific outcome measures developed for these conditions.

    Abstract Aims: 1) To delineate latent classes of treatment response to biologics in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) patients in the first 16 weeks after initiation. 2) To identify predictors of early disease response.
    Methods: The study population was drawn from four biologics trials in polyarticular course JIA: Etanercept 2000, Abatacept 2008, TRial of Early Aggressive Therapy (TREAT) 2012 and Tocilizumab 2014. The outcome was active joint counts (AJC). Semiparametric latent class trajectory analysis was applied to identify latent classes of response to treatment; AJC was transformed for this modelling. We tested baseline disease and treatment characteristics for their abilities to predict class membership of response.
    Results: There were 480 participants, 74% females. At baseline, 26% were rheumatoid factor positive. 67% were on methotrexate at enrollment. Three latent class solution provided the best fit. Baseline AJC was the sole best predictor of class membership. Participants classified by their highest membership probabilities into high baseline AJC (> 30) and slow response (26.5%), low baseline AJC (< 10), early and sustained response (29.7%), and moderate baseline AJC progressive response (43.8%). Participants were classified into the latent classes with a mean class membership posterior probability of 0.97. Those on methotrexate at baseline were less likely to belong to high baseline AJC class.
    Conclusions: Three latent classes of responses were detectable in the first 16 weeks of biologics therapy. Those with the highest baseline AJC demonstrated very slow response in this window and were less likely to be on concomitant methotrexate.
    Trials registration: TREAT 2012 (NCT NCT00443430 ) (Wallace et. al, Arthritis Rheum 64:2012-21, 2012), tocilizumab trial 2014 ( NCT00988221 ), abatacept trial 2008 ( NCT00095173 ). Etanercept 2000 from Amgen does not have a trial registration number.

    Abstract Cutaneous polyarteritis nodosa (CPAN) is a rare necrotizing vasculitis affecting small- to medium-sized arteries. Reported treatments include oral corticosteroids alone or in combination with non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs, intravenous immunoglobulins, cyclophosphamide, azathioprine, colchicine, or dapsone. However, some patients with CPAN do not respond to such treatments and continue to experience exacerbations over prolonged periods. This series provides support for the use of TNF-α inhibitors in the treatment of recalcitrant CPAN in pediatric patients.

    Abstract Background: Morphea is an inflammatory and fibrosing condition that affects the skin and subcutaneous structures. Morphea is managed by dermatologists, rheumatologists, or both. Prior studies have suggested there is significant variability in approach to treatment. In 2012, the Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance (CARRA) published consensus treatment plans (CTPs) for pediatric morphea to develop more standardized treatment plans for patients requiring systemic therapy. We aimed to assess whether the publication of CTPs has impacted care of patients with morphea at our institution.
    Methods: Data were collected via a retrospective review of medical records of 61 pediatric patients diagnosed with morphea at Seattle Children's Hospital (SCH) from January 1, 2005, to December 12,2017.
    Results: Prior to the publication of CTPs, 2 out of 24 patients (8.3%) were treated with a regimen that matched a subsequent CTP. After publication of CTPs, 29 out of 37 patients (78.4%) were treated with a regimen that matched a CTP (P < 0.001). A subanalysis was performed to assess the number of patients who needed second- or third-line therapies. Of those who followed a CTP therapy plan (n = 26), 3 patients (11.5%) needed a second-line therapy compared with 11 patients (44%) in the no-CTP followed group (n = 25), (P = 0.012).
    Conclusions: The publication of CTPs led to a significant change in treatment approach for patients with morphea requiring systemic therapy at SCH. Patients treated with one of the treatment plans recommended by the CTPs were less likely to need second-line systemic therapy.

    Abstract Objective: To investigate the effects of early introduction of biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) on the disease course in untreated polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA).
    Methods: We analyzed data on patients with polyarticular JIA participating in the Start Time Optimization of Biologics in Polyarticular JIA (STOP-JIA) study (n = 400) and a comparator cohort (n = 248) from the Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance Registry. Latent class trajectory modeling (LCTM) was applied to identify subgroups of patients with distinct disease courses based on disease activity (clinical Juvenile Arthritis Disease Activity Score in 10 joints) over 12 months from baseline.
    Results: In the STOP-JIA study, 198 subjects (49.5%) received bDMARDs within 3 months of baseline assessment. LCTM analyses generated 3 latent classes representing 3 distinct disease trajectories, characterized by slow, moderate, or rapid disease activity improvement over time. Subjects in the rapid improvement trajectory attained inactive disease within 6 months from baseline. Odds of being in the rapid improvement trajectory versus the slow improvement trajectory were 3.6 times as high (95% confidence interval 1.32-10.0; P = 0.013) for those treated with bDMARDs ≤3 months from baseline compared with subjects who started bDMARDs >3 months after baseline, after adjusting for demographic characteristics, clinical attributes, and baseline disease activity. Shorter disease duration at first rheumatology visit approached statistical significance as a predictor of favorable trajectory without bDMARD treatment.
    Conclusion: Starting bDMARDs within 3 months of baseline assessment is associated with more rapid achievement of inactive disease in subjects with untreated polyarticular JIA. These results demonstrate the utility of trajectory analysis of disease course as a method for determining treatment efficacy.
