HSS Research at EULAR 2025 Congress Shows Routine Test Could Enable Faster, More-Effective Personalized Rheumatoid Arthritis Treatment

Business Wire12-06-2025

BARCELONA, Spain--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) presented new findings at the European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR) Annual Meeting that could help pave the way for more personalized treatment for people with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) by analyzing the cellular composition of synovial fluid inside their joints.
RA is a chronic disease characterized by inflammation in the synovium, the tissue that covers the inner surface of the joint cavity. Although usually accompanied by joint pain, swelling and deterioration, the level of inflammation varies from patient to patient, potentially requiring customized treatment plans. 'What is surprising to us is that there are some patients who have clinical remission, yet continue to experience pain and show radiographic progression of the disease with high levels of synovial inflammation, while others have high disease activity with many swollen and tender joints and little inflammation in the synovial tissue' said Susan M. Goodman, MD, rheumatologist at HSS and principal investigator of the study. She explained that even when standard tests suggest the disease is under control, the joint fluid can still show high levels of inflammation. 'By analyzing synovial fluid characteristics, we expected it might give us some insight into the disparity between disease progression and apparent remission,' she added.
The team analyzed samples from 64 patients with RA, 90.6% of whom were women, and with a median age of 65.3 ±11.7 years. The physicians collected synovial fluid samples to analyze and compare with the synovial tissue biopsy counterpart, which defines the inflammatory profile of the disease.
Dr. Goodman and the team measured the total white blood cell count, as well as the percentage of neutrophils, lymphocytes and monocytes in each synovial fluid sample. They then compared those findings to two additional key pieces of clinical information: the patient's disease activity (such as joint swelling, pain, etc.) and the level of inflammation seen in the tissue.
Their analysis revealed that the total white blood cell count in the synovial fluid did not correlate with disease activity, however, the counting of individual cell types gave insights into tissue inflammation. As such, a higher percentage of neutrophils was associated with increased inflammation in the tissue, while a higher percentage of monocytes was associated with lower inflammation in the tissue.
Because the white blood cell counts in synovial fluid provided distinct and different information from standard disease activity measures and correlated well with tissue inflammation, the team believes it could help guide the selection of personalized anti-inflammatory therapies more efficiently.
'Synovial fluid extraction is already a routine part of care, but until now, it has never been used to analyze disease state in this way,' explained Dr. Goodman. In other words, the approach could be adopted without placing additional burden on healthcare providers.
"It's important that we're gaining new methods of investigating patients with RA,' Dr. Goodman added, 'since choosing the appropriate therapy and choosing it in an efficient way is clearly the best way to achieve the best outcomes.'
According to Dr. Goodman, the next phase of this study, led by HSS rheumatologists Melanie H. Smith, MD, MPH, and Dana Orange, MD, MS, will look at both the proteomics and genetics of the cells within the fluid with more molecular and immunologic techniques, with the goal of finding even more clinically relevant and important information.

Exelixis Announces Zanzalintinib in Combination with an Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Improved Overall Survival in STELLAR-303 Phase 3 Pivotal Trial in Patients with Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

BUSINESS WIRE)-- Exelixis, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXEL) today announced positive topline results from the STELLAR-303 phase 3 pivotal trial in which zanzalintinib in combination with atezolizumab (Tecentriq ®) demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in overall survival (OS) versus regorafenib in the intent-to-treat (ITT) population of patients with previously treated non-microsatellite instability (MSI)-high metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC). These topline findings are from the final analysis conducted by the Independent Data Monitoring Committee of one of the dual primary endpoints of the STELLAR-303 phase 3 trial. The trial will proceed to the planned final analysis for the other dual primary endpoint of OS in patients without liver metastases (non-liver metastases, NLM). The safety profiles of zanzalintinib in combination with atezolizumab and of regorafenib were generally consistent with what has been previously observed, and no new safety signals were identified. The ITT population consisted of all randomized patients, regardless of the presence of liver metastases. The NLM subgroup consisted of patients who did not have active liver metastases at baseline as determined by investigator assessment. 'The STELLAR-303 results, which showed a survival benefit with the combination of zanzalintinib and atezolizumab versus regorafenib across all randomized patients with previously treated metastatic colorectal cancer, marks an important first milestone for our zanzalintinib pivotal development program,' said Amy Peterson, M.D., Executive Vice President, Product Development & Medical Affairs, and Chief Medical Officer, Exelixis. 'We look forward to discussing the findings with regulatory authorities and presenting the detailed results at an upcoming medical conference.' Secondary endpoints of STELLAR-303 include progression-free survival, objective response rate and duration of response in the ITT population and in the NLM subgroup of patients. Exelixis plans to submit detailed results of STELLAR-303 for presentation at an upcoming medical conference. About STELLAR-303 STELLAR-303 (NCT05425940) is a global, multicenter, randomized, phase 3, open-label study that randomized 901 patients 1:1 to either zanzalintinib (100 mg) in combination with atezolizumab or regorafenib. The study includes patients with previously treated non-MSI-high metastatic CRC. The dual primary endpoints of the study are OS in the ITT population and in the NLM subgroup of patients. Presence of liver metastases at baseline for all enrolled patients was determined by investigator assessment. Secondary endpoints include progression-free survival, objective response rate and duration of response in the ITT population and in the NLM subgroup of patients. More information about the trial is available at About Zanzalintinib Zanzalintinib is a third-generation oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor that inhibits the activity of receptor tyrosine kinases implicated in cancer growth and spread, including VEGF receptors, MET, AXL and MER. These receptor tyrosine kinases are involved in both normal cellular function and in pathologic processes such as oncogenesis, metastasis, tumor angiogenesis and resistance to multiple therapies, including immune checkpoint inhibitors. With zanzalintinib, Exelixis sought to build upon its extensive experience with the target profile of cabozantinib, the company's flagship medicine, while improving key characteristics, including pharmacokinetic half-life. Zanzalintinib is currently being developed for the treatment of advanced solid tumors, including colorectal cancer, kidney cancer, head and neck cancer and neuroendocrine tumors. Zanzalintinib is an investigational agent that is not approved for any use and is the subject of ongoing clinical trials. About CRC CRC is the third most common cancer and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the U.S. 1 Approximately 154,000 new cases will be diagnosed in the U.S. with around 53,000 expected deaths from the disease in 2025. 1 CRC is most frequently diagnosed among people aged 65-74 and is more common in men and in people of non-Hispanic American Indian/Alaska Native descent. 2 Nearly a quarter of CRC cases are diagnosed at the metastatic stage, at which point the five-year survival rate is just 16.2%. 2 The liver is the most common site for CRC metastasis. Liver metastases significantly impact survival, with a median five-year survival rate of less than 14% when treated with palliative chemotherapy. 3 About Exelixis Exelixis is a globally ambitious oncology company innovating next-generation medicines and regimens at the forefront of cancer care.

GE HealthCare drives innovation in theranostics with latest technological advances

CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--At this year's Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI) Annual Meeting, GE HealthCare is spotlighting the future of precision care with its innovative portfolio of theranostics-enabling solutions designed to help drive clinical and operational excellence. Making its debut, GE HealthCare's MIM Software introduces LesionID Pro with automated zero-click pre-processing i – an AI-powered innovation to help aid physician decision making and therapy response monitoring. 'Precision care is the future of oncology—and theranostics is at the heart of that future. The integration of advanced imaging and AI-powered software is accelerating the adoption of theranostics in clinical practice,' shares Shyam Srinivas, MD, PhD, Chief Share With cancer accounting for over 10 million deaths globally each year, ii the rise of precision care – particularly theranostics – is offering new hope to patients. By combining advanced diagnostic imaging and radiopharmaceuticals with targeted therapies, theranostics enables a personalized, patient-centric approach that may help improve disease detection, treatment accuracy, and overall quality of life. 'Precision care is the future of oncology—and theranostics is at the heart of that future. The integration of advanced imaging and AI-powered software is accelerating the adoption of theranostics in clinical practice,' shares Shyam Srinivas, MD, PhD, Chief of Nuclear Medicine, Associate Clinical Professor, Department of Radiological Sciences, University of California, Irvine. 'With tools like GE HealthCare's Omni Legend, StarGuide, and MIM software at our disposal, we now have the ability to visualize disease with great clarity, quantify tumor burden efficiently, and make fast, informed decisions. These advancements are not only helping enhance diagnostic accuracy and therapy monitoring but are also opening the door to dosimetry—ultimately helping improve outcomes for our patients. This is precision care in action, and it's making a real difference in patients' lives.' Central to the practice of theranostics is molecular imaging, such as positron emission tomography (PET) and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), which provides detailed, patient-specific insights to guide and monitor treatment. However, accessing these insights – like whole-body tumor burden, which represents the total amount of cancer is in the body – has traditionally required time-consuming manual analysis, resulting in clinical and operational challenges. In response, GE HealthCare's MIM Software is introducing LesionID Pro with automated zero-click pre-processing, i designed with AI-powered automation to help physicians access reliable whole-body tumor burden statistics without having to spend hours manually segmenting lesions, removing normal physiologic uptake, and registering multiple patient images for comparison. In addition to turning manual pre-processing into a zero-click experience, this new version of LesionID Pro comes with significant algorithm improvements that provide physicians with a precise whole-body tumor volume to review and finalize. Intuitive, user-friendly tools were intentionally designed with input from leading theranostics practitioners with the ultimate goal of making whole-body tumor burden analysis a practical clinical reality and help shorten physicians' time-to-report. 'At GE HealthCare, we are dedicated to providing clinicians the precision care tools needed for the adoption and practice of theranostics,' shares Jean-Luc Procaccini, President & CEO, Molecular Imaging & Computed Tomography, GE HealthCare. 'We designed our portfolio of precision care solutions to evolve with healthcare system needs and help support a patient's entire care journey – from the imaging equipment needed for a noninvasive look at a patient's anatomy and treatment monitoring, to novel radiopharmaceuticals used to diagnose and monitor disease and the systems required to produce them, to the software optimized to enable data-driven decision-making. In the hands of clinicians, these tools help advance the global practice of personalized medicine and help improve patient outcomes.' Also on display at #SNMMI25, as part of GE HealthCare's comprehensive portfolio of theranostics-enabling solutions for clinical and operational excellence, are the following innovations: MINItrace Magni, iii GE HealthCare's newest cyclotron technology, designed with a small footprint (about the size of a commercial refrigerator) and the goal of providing an easy-to-site, easy-to-install solution for the reliable, in-house production of commercial PET tracers and radiometals, including Gallium-68, used in diagnostic imaging to support personalized care plans. Adoption of such easy-to-site, easy-to-install technology may help enhance the capabilities of the healthcare system but also grant clinicians the ability to offer a variety of tracers to their patients and encourage the practice of precision care locally, helping fuel inhouse Theranostics capabilities. Omni Legend is a performance-focused PET/CT designed to evolve and help meet growing healthcare system demands by enabling clinicians to reduce dose by up to 40% iv while maintaining exceptional image quality. Supportive of the diagnostic portion of theranostics, the system continues to gain in popularity, representing the company's fastest-ever-selling PET/CT. v StarGuide is a digital SPECT/CT with a 12 CZT detector design that delivers high-quality 3D images and short scan times. Optimized for certain theranostic procedures, the system is designed to help clinicians pinpoint the size, shape, and position of lesions and monitor therapy with exceptional precision. Its flexibility in patient scanning and workflow efficiencies also support high patient throughput and help reduce complexity. For oncology patients, especially those in pain, short scans can help enhance comfort and overall experience. Aurora is an advanced dual-head SPECT/CT designed with excellent diagnostic capabilities vi and streamline workflows, offering clinicians excellent image quality and operational efficiency. Its CT has a 40 mm detector – twice the detector coverage compared to CTs of other hybrid systems vii – with the ability to reduce the dose up to 82%, viii support accurate quantitation, and help clinicians make the personalized care decisions that are at the heart of theranostics. Theranostics Pathway Manager Tile is an easy-to-use application, available on GE HealthCare's Command Center software, that is designed to simplify the time-consuming task of coordinating the theranostics care pathway. It does so by tracking patient readiness for therapy, eliminating the need for manual data gathering across disparate systems (e.g., labs, scheduling, ordering, spreadsheets), and providing a unified, up-to-date view of each patient's treatment journey. Oregon Health & Science University will be an early adopter. 'Every day counts when it comes to cancer care. The latest theranostics solutions will help our care teams more quickly and easily keep tabs on patient readiness and reduce patient coordination time—freeing up more time for clinicians to focus on direct patient care,' says Erik Mittra, M.D., Ph.D., professor of diagnostic radiology in the at Oregon Health & Science University.
