Promising but incomplete evidence! 🤰
#RheumaPreg25
🔬 International #APS Research Landscape - challenges:
- Limited ongoing clinical trials
- Complex patient populations
- Diverse antibody profiles
- Innovative trial designs required
Urgent: Expand research networks! 🚨
#RheumaPreg25
🔬 #APS Clinical Trials Update: Only Handful of Studies Found!
Discoveries so far:
- New classification criteria
- 70-80% pregnancy success with current treatment
- Exploring alternative therapies
- Multicenter international trials needed
Need MORE research! 🚨

@karenschreiber.bsky.social
has presented "Quo vadis" obstetric #APS 👇
#RheumaPreg25
To summarise 👇
#APS #oAPS #RheumaPreg25
🔬 #APS diagnosis and treatment approach
- Classification criteria alone should not change diagnosis or treatment
- Phenotype-based approach recommended
- Maintaining consistency in care is essential for patient outcomes
#oAPS #RheumaPreg25
🏥 #APS classification for clinical trials
- Updated criteria are useful for clinical trials but not for treatment decisions
- Classification should not change patient diagnosis or care
- Focus on phenotype-based treatment instead
#oAPS #RheumaPreg25
🧬 Emerging #APS risk factors
- Anti-domain 1 and anti-PS/PT antibodies linked to pregnancy complications
- New antibody profiles challenge traditional risk factors
- Shaping future APS diagnostic criteria
#oAPS #RheumaPreg25
🤔 #APS patients not fitting new criteria:
- 44% of patients with early miscarriage and IgM antibodies not included
- Severe patients might not fit new classification despite serious medical history
- Need for more inclusive classification systems
#RheumaPreg25 #oAPS
👩🔬 #APS pregnancy outcomes:
- 32% of new pregnancies had complications despite treatment
- Miscarriage and other issues persisted despite conventional care
- Important to understand variations in patient response
#RheumaPreg25 #oAPS
🧑🔬 #APS classification criteria update:
- Concordance between historical APS diagnoses and new criteria ranges from 21% to 50%
- Many patients with severe osteopathic history excluded
- Need for careful reevaluation of patients outside the new criteria
#RheumaPreg25 #oAPS
Prof. Angela Tincani (Brescia, Italy) talks about "Implications of New Classification Criteria of APS"
#RheumaPreg25
2️⃣ Second session "Beyond the clot: challenges in obstetric antiphospholipid syndrome", chaired by Nathalie Costedoat-Chalumeau and Karoline Mayer-Pickel!
#RheumaPreg25 #APS #APSmatters #oAPS
🚀 Urgent Need:
- Faster evidence generation
- More transparent risk-benefit analysis
- Personalized medical decision-making
#RheumaPreg25
💪 Key Goals:
- Shift from "vulnerable" to "complex" population
- Protect women THROUGH research, not FROM research
- Generate earlier evidence in drug development
#RheumaPreg25
Day 2 of #RheumaPreg25, we kickoff talking about including pregnant patients in clinical trials.
Laura Andreoli kicks off @lauraandreoli.bsky.social by talking about pregnancy, medication, and the Future of Medical Research 👇
It was a pleasure to participate in the session "Inclusion of pregnant patients with chronic conditions in research and clinical trials" in #RheumaPreg25
Such an honor to exchange with these wonderful women and incredible experts! 😍
📍Estamos en Viena en #RheumaPreg25
Nuestra vicepresidenta trae la voz de pacientes al panel sobre los desafíos en la investigación en embarazo y lactancia con @lauraandreoli.bsky.social, Klara Rosta @rheproat.bsky.social, @karenschreiber.bsky.social Judit Sandor y @nelson-piercy.bsky.social
Dr. Kazem Nouri: presents "Fertility Preservation in Rheumatic Diseases"
#RheumaPreg25
Dr. Klara Rosta: "How to approach infertility in rheumatic diseases" #RheumaPreg25
@rheproat.bsky.social
Reproductive Trends:
- Women having children later (avg. 31 years)
- Fertility peak: 20-35 years
- Reproductive potential declines after 35
- Biotechnology expanding fertility options 📊
Bettina Toth from Med Uni Innsbruck @i-med.ac.at talks about “Ovarian reserve: current diagnostic and therapeutic options”
