背景:疾病缓解或疾病活动度低是系统性红斑狼疮(SLE)患者的主要治疗目标。贝利木单抗的关键性试验是在引入这些目标之前进行的。在这项研究中,我们旨在汇集各项试验的数据,以评估大量具有种族和文化多样性的系统性红斑狼疮患者达到缓解和低疾病活动度的情况:在这项综合事后分析中,我们汇总了贝利木单抗五项三期试验(BLISS-76 [NCT00410384]、BLISS-52 [NCT00424476]、BLISS-NEA [NCT01345253]、BLISS-SC [NCT01484496]和EMBRACE [NCT01632241])的数据,这些试验均针对活动性自身抗体阳性系统性红斑狼疮患者。患者被随机分配接受贝利木单抗(每月静脉注射10毫克/千克或每周皮下注射200毫克)或安慰剂以及标准疗法。从第4周到第52周,每隔4周分析一次贝利木单抗与安慰剂的对比情况,采用经试验方差调整的改良泊松回归法,对所有患者以及按系统性红斑狼疮疾病活动指数-2000基线评分(每天7-5毫克)、抗疟药物使用情况(是或否)和种族(黑非洲血统或非裔美国人、亚洲人、土著美国人或白人)划分的亚组进行分析。研究结果:分析了3086名患者(贝利木单抗组1869人,安慰剂组1217人)的数据。3086名患者中有2913名(94%)为女性,173名(6%)为男性,年龄中位数为36岁(IQR为28-45岁)。在第28、48和52周,贝利木单抗组患者的DORIS缓解比例明显高于安慰剂组(第52周:1869名参与者中的148人[8%] vs 1217名参与者中的68人[6%];风险比1-51 [95% CI 1-15-1-99];P=0-0055)。在第8、24、32-52周,贝利木单抗组达到LLDAS的患者比例高于安慰剂组(第52周:1869名参与者中的322[17%]对1217名参与者中的125[10%];1-74 [1-44-2-12];p解释:在活动性系统性红斑狼疮成人患者中,贝利木单抗联合标准疗法比安慰剂联合标准疗法在获得DORIS缓解(两组均达到较低比例)和LLDAS方面的获益更大,最早在DORIS缓解的第28周和LLDAS的第8周就观察到了差异:瑞典风湿病协会、古斯塔夫五世国王 80 年基金会、瑞典医学会、Nyckelfonden、Nanna Svartz 教授基金会、Ulla 和 Roland Gustafsson 基金会、斯德哥尔摩地区以及卡罗林斯卡医学院。

<div><h3>Background</h3><div>Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis is a heterogenous autoimmune disease. While traditionally stratified into two conditions, granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) and microscopic polyangiitis (MPA), the subclassification of ANCA-associated vasculitis is subject to continued debate. Here we aim to identify phenotypically distinct subgroups and develop a data-driven subclassification of ANCA-associated vasculitis, using a large real-world dataset.</div></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><div>In the collaborative data reuse project FAIRVASC (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable, Vasculitis), registry records of patients with ANCA-associated vasculitis were retrieved from six European vasculitis registries: the Czech Registry of ANCA-associated vasculitis (Czech Republic), the French Vasculitis Study Group Registry (FVSG; France), the Joint Vasculitis Registry in German-speaking Countries (GeVas; Germany), the Polish Vasculitis Registry (POLVAS; Poland), the Irish Rare Kidney Disease Registry (RKD; Ireland), and the Skåne Vasculitis Cohort (Sweden). We performed model-based clustering of 17 mixed-type clinical variables using a parsimonious mixture of two latent Gaussian variable models. Clinical validation of the optimal cluster solution was made through summary statistics of the clusters' demography, phenotypic and serological characteristics, and outcome. The predictive value of models featuring the cluster affiliations were compared with classifications based on clinical diagnosis and ANCA specificity.

There were 2434 (62·9%) patients with GPA and 1434 (37·1%) with MPA. Mean age at diagnosis was 57·2 years (SD 16·4); 2006 (51·9%) of 3867 patients were men and 1861 (48·1%) were women. We identified five clusters, with distinct phenotype, biochemical presentation, and disease outcome. Three clusters were characterised by kidney involvement: one severe kidney cluster (555 [14·3%] of 3868 patients) with high C-reactive protein (CRP) and serum creatinine concentrations, and variable ANCA specificity (SK cluster); one myeloperoxidase (MPO)-ANCA-positive kidney involvement cluster (782 [20·2%]) with limited extrarenal disease (MPO-K cluster); and one proteinase 3 (PR3)-ANCA-positive kidney involvement cluster (683 [17·7%]) with widespread extrarenal disease (PR3-K cluster).

<div><h3>Background</h3><div>Non-Hodgkin lymphomas have a substantial impact on individuals with Sjögren's disease. This study focuses on mucosal-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphomas, which constitute the majority of Sjögren's disease-associated non-Hodgkin lymphomas. We aimed to identify reliable lymphoma predictors in patients with Sjögren's disease and study their progression over time.</div></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><div>In this case-control study, patients diagnosed with Sjögren's disease-associated MALT lymphoma, with a minimum of 3 years between Sjögren's disease diagnosis and MALT lymphoma diagnosis, were included from three centres specialising in Sjögren's disease (University of Athens, Athens, Greece; University of Pisa, Pisa, Italy; and University of Udine, Udine, Italy) and matched 1:1 with control participants with Sjögren's disease who did not have lymphoma according to age, sex, disease duration at last follow up, and treatment modality. Three harmonised datasets were constructed, curated, and analysed to identify MALT lymphoma predictors, representing three distinct timepoints in lymphomagenesis progression: V1 at Sjögren's disease diagnosis, V2 3–4 years before lymphoma diagnosis, and V3 0·5–1·5 years before lymphoma diagnosis. All recruited patients fulfilled the 2016 American College of Rheumatology–European League Against Rheumatism criteria for Sjögren's disease. The primary outcome was to identify MALT lymphoma predictors in Sjögren's disease, present at the timepoint of Sjögren's disease diagnosis and 3–4 years before the diagnosis of MALT lymphoma. A fast correlation-based feature selection and logistic regression model was used at V1 and V2 to identify MALT lymphoma predictors.

In both groups, 72 (90%) of 80 participants were women and eight (10%) were men. The mean age at Sjögren's disease diagnosis was 48·6 years (SD 11·6) in the lymphoma group and 48·7 years (11·5) in the control group. All patients were White, with 88 (55%) of 160 individuals of Greek nationality and 72 (45%) of Italian nationality. At the V1 timepoint, rheumatoid factor was the only independent lymphoma predictor (odds ratio 3·33 [95% CI 1·96–5·64]). At the V2 timepoint, rheumatoid factor (3·66 [95% CI 2·08–6·42]) and European League Against Rheumatism Sjögren's Syndrome Disease Activity Index ≥5 (3·88 [1·69–8·90]) were identified as independent lymphoma risk factors.

Among the 82 patients with marginal zone lymphoma (72 [88%] women and ten (12%) men; mean age at lymphoma diagnosis 57·5 years [SD 14·8]), multivariable analysis showed that pulmonary localisation was associated with mortality (hazard ratio [HR] 7·92 [95% CI 1·70–37·0]).

When comparing patients treated with a combination of chemotherapy and anti-CD20 therapy (n=32) with patients treated with monotherapy (n=18) as a first-line therapy for lymphoma, lymphoma-progression-free survival was improved in patients treated with combination therapy (HR 0·36 [95% CI 0·14–0·94]).

背景:斯约格伦病是淋巴瘤发病风险最高的自身免疫性疾病。对于治疗并发淋巴瘤的斯约戈伦病的最佳方法,目前尚无共识。我们旨在描述与斯约戈伦病相关的非霍奇金淋巴瘤的特征、治疗策略和结果,以及它们对淋巴瘤和斯约戈伦病预后的影响:我们进行了一项多中心、回顾性、观察性研究,纳入了根据2016年美国风湿病学会-欧洲抗风湿联盟标准确诊的、不符合其他结缔组织疾病诊断标准的斯约戈伦病患者。我们纳入了在 2020 年 1 月 1 日前确诊为淋巴瘤的患者,这些患者来自法国巴黎的两个专家中心、法国多中心前瞻性斯约格伦综合征系统体征和演变评估队列,以及在风湿与炎症俱乐部注册的执业医师。采用逆治疗概率加权法,比较了淋巴瘤治疗效果与三个终点的关系:淋巴瘤无进展生存期、新的斯约格伦病全身活动度和总生存期。探索性分析还旨在确定与淋巴瘤复发、新发斯约格伦病全身活动性和总生存期相关的因素。有生活经验的人没有参与这项研究:研究共纳入了 106 名罹患淋巴瘤的斯约格伦病患者。最常见的组织学亚型是粘膜相关淋巴组织淋巴瘤(106 例患者中有 68 例[64%]),其次是其他边缘区亚型(106 例患者中有 14 例[13%])和弥漫大 B 细胞淋巴瘤(106 例患者中有 14 例[13%])。在82名边缘区淋巴瘤患者中(女性72人[88%],男性10人[12%];淋巴瘤确诊时的平均年龄为57-5岁[SD 14-8]),多变量分析显示,肺部定位与死亡率有关(危险比[HR] 7-92 [95% CI 1-70-37-0])。在82名边缘区淋巴瘤患者中,有19人(23%)采用了观察和等待的方法,13人(16%)接受了一线局部治疗(手术或放疗),50人(61%)接受了一线系统治疗。中位随访7年后,26名患者(32%)淋巴瘤复发,9名患者(11%)死亡,27名患者(33%)出现新的系统性活动。在对治疗概率进行反向加权后,淋巴瘤确诊时接受系统治疗的患者出现新的斯约格伦病活动的风险降低(HR 0-43 [95% CI 0-21-0-90])。将接受化疗和抗CD20联合疗法治疗的患者(32人)与接受单一疗法治疗的患者(18人)作为淋巴瘤一线疗法进行比较,发现接受联合疗法治疗的患者淋巴瘤无进展生存期有所改善(HR 0-36 [95% CI 0-14-0-94])。联合疗法与单一疗法在新的斯约格伦病全身活动性或总生存率方面没有差异:解读:与局部治疗或观察和等待策略相比,对斯约格伦病相关淋巴瘤采取全身治疗策略可降低新的斯约格伦病全身活动性风险,而联合治疗与降低淋巴瘤复发风险相关:无。
