Not sure if you qualify for a clinical trial? šŸ§Ŗ

The process is often easier than people think. Every clinical trial has inclusion and exclusion criteria ā€” such as age, pregnancy status, disease activity, or other medical conditions. Because every trial is different, the best way to know if you qualify is simply to get screened.

Being part of a clinical trial also comes with important benefits:

High-level, closely monitored medical care

Access to new medications before theyā€™re widely available

Little to no out-of-pocket cost, since trial sponsors often cover medications

For patients facing expensive treatments or limited insurance coverage, clinical trials can be a valuable option.

šŸ‘‰ Talk to your doctor to see if a clinical trial may be right for you.

What is UCTD? šŸ©ŗ

UCTD (Undifferentiated Connective Tissue Disease) is a common autoimmune condition where patients show signs of autoimmune disease but donā€™t meet criteria for lupus, RA, or other defined connective tissue diseases. Up to 25% of rheumatology patients may have it.

Common symptoms:

Joint pain or inflammation

Raynaudā€™s (fingers/toes change color in the cold)

Dry eyes or mouth

Rashes or photosensitivity

Mouth/nasal ulcers, hair loss

šŸ’” Tip: Early recognition helps manage symptoms ā€” talk to your rheumatologist.

Big news from the research side of One Rheumatology. Our clinical trial found encouraging improvements in psoriatic arthritis patients with obesity when TaltzĀ® was paired with GLP-1 therapy. This could signal a new approach to managing inflammation, joint symptoms, and metabolic health together. Dr. Stermer is breaking down what this meansā€”and why clinical trials are shaping the future of autoimmune care. Always consult your physician before changing treatment.

Why do doctors run clinical trials? šŸ§Ŗ

Clinical trials are how we move medicine forward. In rheumatology, research has led to life-changing treatments, especially for patients with autoimmune diseases that werenā€™t well controlled in the past.

Before biologic medications became available in the early 2000s, many patients with conditions like rheumatoid arthritis experienced severe disease, joint damage, and limitations in daily life. Today, research has transformed care, and even more promising treatments are on the horizon.

Clinical trials give patients access to cutting-edge therapies and help advance care for future generations.

šŸ‘‰ If you or someone you know may benefit from a clinical trial, talk to your doctor.

Treatment Options for UCTD (Undifferentiated Connective Tissue Disease) šŸ©ŗ

UCTD treatment depends on symptoms. Mild cases may only need over-the-counter pain relievers, while skin rashes can respond to topical steroids. Moderate disease is often managed with DMARDs like hydroxychloroquine, and severe cases may require stronger medications such as methotrexate.

šŸ’” If you have joint pain, rashes, or oral ulcers, talk to a rheumatologistā€”early care makes a big difference.

Why switching back to traditional Medicare is so hard āš ļø

Once you enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan, going back isnā€™t simple. The best time to get a Medicare supplement is in the first 6 months after turning 65ā€”no health questions, no denials. After that, coverage can be limited or denied.

šŸ’” Knowing this timing helps protect your long-term access to care.

šŸ‘‰ Follow for honest Medicare guidance.
