Oncologist George Georges, MD, moderates a discussion with Christine Hsieh, MD, rheumatologist, and Arjun Seth, MD, neurologist, on advancing care for inflammatory myopathies. The panel introduces the Northwestern Medicine Myositis Clinic, a one-stop model that simplifies diagnostics and connects patients to clinical trials. They review current treatment strategies — steroids, IVIg, steroid-sparing agents, rituximab, and JAK inhibitors — along with approaches for refractory disease. The panel also explores cellular therapies, including CAR-T cell trials.
