Mrinalini Dey on the association between health literacy and outcomes in people with inflammatory arthritis
In August’s episode, Dr Mrinalini Dey from the Centre for Rheumatic Diseases at King’s College London discusses her recent publication on the association between health literacy and outcomes in people with inflammatory arthritis in England. Health literacy—the ability to access, understand, evaluate, and use health information and services in ways that promote and maintain good health and wellbeing—is increasingly recognised as a key factor in promoting health and managing chronic diseases.The World Health Organization has identified health literacy as central to the prevention and control of non-communicable diseases, such as rheumatic and musculoskeletal conditions. As a potentially modifiable social determinant of health, health literacy can influence how patients experience and manage disease. Yet, its relationship with clinical outcomes, mental health, work participation, and broader social factors in inflammatory arthritis remains poorly understood. We discuss the findings from Dr Dey’s large, national cohort study, how we can improve health literacy disparities in patients, and what should be next on the research agenda to tackle this issue.

Enpatoran for Cutaneous or Systemic Lupus with Eric Morand
In today’s episode Professor Eric Morand discusses the results of Cohort A and Cohort B of the WILLOW trial which investigated the efficacy and safety of enpatoran, a novel, oral small molecule inhibitor of Toll-like receptors 7 and 8 (TLR 7/8) in patients with cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The interferon pathway has been implicated in both CLE and SLE pathogenesis, however, the mechanism through which interferon expression is induced in lupus remains unknown. Targeting TLR 7/8 is of particular interest, as they are key drivers of interferon activation. Enpatoran has previously shown efficacy in early phase 1 trials of patients with CLE and SLE, with improvements in SLEDAI-2K and reduction in IFN-gene signatures with good safety profiles. We also highlight the differences in study design and endpoints of each cohort, compare and contrast enpatoran to currently approved therapies for SLE, anifrolumab and deucravacitinib, and finally, outline what the next research priority should be for patients with CLE and SLE.

Tue Wenzel Kragstrup on GLP-1 and DPP-4 in the synovial fluid of patients with rheumatic disease
In this month’s podcast, we explore Associate Professor Kragstrup’s recent proof-of-concept study which reports glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) concentrations and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) activity in paired plasma and synovial fluid from patients with rheumatoid arthritis and spondyloarthritis and discuss whether there may be potential for intra-articular GLP-1 receptor agonist injections in these patients? GLP-1 receptor agonists are gaining increasing attention in rheumatology due to their immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory effects, highlighting their role as a potential therapeutic option for patients with rheumatic disease. Whether GLP-1 and DPP-4 (the key regulator of GLP-1) are present in synovial fluid of patients with rheumatic disease and to what extent remains to be seen. Understanding their interplay within the joint may provide more insight on whether GLP-1 receptor agonists could exert direct intra-articular effects in rheumatic disease. We also discuss limitations and barriers of investigating GLP-1 and DPP-4 and the next research priorities for determining the efficacy of GLP-1 receptor agonists in patients with rheumatic disease.
