To describe the clinico-radiologic outcome of MS patients with natalizumab-related progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (Nz-PML) surviving and receiving disease-modifying therapy (DMT).
We describe clinical and radiologic evolution of Nz-PML survivors in an observational retrospective multicenter cohort to clarify the effect of different subsequent MS DMT strategies. Twenty-three patients from 11 centers were analyzed. Outcomes were (1) clinical efficacy of post-PML MS DMT, (2) radiologic efficacy of post-PML MS DMT, (3) radiologic evolution of PML lesion, and (4) disability progression.
There was no clinical worsening of PML symptoms with a stability of Expanded Disability Status Scale at the last follow-up. No relapse was reported with fingolimod and dimethyl fumarate. No radiologic worsening of Nz-PML lesion was observed at the end of the follow-up.
In this large cohort of patients with Nz-PML, MS therapies given after Nz discontinuation were not associated with PML worsening. A larger cohort with longer follow-up will be necessary to confirm this therapeutic strategy.
描述接受疾病修正治疗(DMT)的那他珠单抗相关进行性多灶性白质脑病(Nz-PML)存活多发性硬化症(MS)患者的临床放射学结局。
我们在一项观察性回顾性多中心队列研究中描述Nz-PML幸存者的临床和放射学演变,以阐明不同后续MS DMT策略的效果。分析了来自11个中心的23例患者。结局指标包括:(1)PML后MS DMT的临床疗效;(2)PML后MS DMT的放射学疗效;(3)PML病变的放射学演变;(4)残疾进展情况。
在最后一次随访时,PML症状无临床恶化,扩展残疾状态量表保持稳定。使用芬戈莫德和富马酸二甲酯未报告复发。随访结束时未观察到Nz-PML病变的放射学恶化。
在这个大型Nz-PML患者队列中,停用Nz后给予的MS治疗与PML恶化无关。需要更大规模且随访时间更长的队列来证实这一治疗策略。
