From the Guidelines

Myadec is not mentioned in the provided evidence, and therefore, its definition or recommendation cannot be made based on the given studies. The provided evidence discusses treatment options for interstitial lung disease (ILD) in people with systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases, including medications such as pirfenidone, rituximab, tacrolimus, and tocilizumab 1.

Key Points:

  • The evidence focuses on ILD treatment and does not reference Myadec.
  • Treatment options for ILD progression despite first-line therapy include mycophenolate, rituximab, cyclophosphamide, and nintedanib, as conditionally recommended by the guidelines 1.
  • Pirfenidone may be added for people with RA-ILD progression, but its use in other SARD-ILD is conditionally not recommended 1.
  • Tocilizumab is conditionally recommended for people with SSc-ILD, MCTD-ILD, and RA-ILD progression, but not for those with SjD-ILD and IIM-ILD 1. Given the lack of information on Myadec in the provided evidence, it is not possible to provide a recommendation or definition for Myadec based on the studies.
