To assess the efficacy of belimumab in joint and skin manifestations in a nationwide cohort of patients with SLE.
All patients with skin and joint involvement enrolled in the BeRLiSS cohort were considered. Belimumab (intravenous, 10 mg/kg) effectiveness in joint and skin manifestations was assessed by DAS28 and CLASI, respectively. Attainment and predictors of DAS28 remission (<2.6) and LDA (≥2.6, ≤3.2), CLASI = 0, 1, and improvement in DAS28 and CLASI indices ≥20%, ≥50%, and ≥70% were evaluated at 6, 12, 24, and 36 months.
DAS28 < 2.6 was achieved by 46%, 57%, and 71% of patients at 6, 12, and 24 months, respectively. CLASI = 0 was achieved by 36%, 48%, and 62% of patients at 6, 12, and 24 months, respectively. Belimumab showed a glucocorticoid-sparing effect, being glucocorticoid-free at 8.5%, 15.4%, 25.6%, and 31.6% of patients at 6, 12, 24, and 36 months, respectively. Patients achieving DAS-LDA and CLASI-50 at 6 months had a higher probability of remission at 12 months compared with those who did not ( = 0.034 and = 0.028, respectively).
Belimumab led to clinical improvement in a significant proportion of patients with joint or skin involvement in a real-life setting and was associated with a glucocorticoid-sparing effect. A significant proportion of patients with a partial response at 6 months achieved remission later on during follow-up.
评估贝利尤单抗对全国范围内系统性红斑狼疮(SLE)患者关节和皮肤表现的疗效。
纳入BeRLiSS队列中所有有皮肤和关节受累的患者。分别通过28关节疾病活动度评分(DAS28)和系统性红斑狼疮皮肤综合评估指数(CLASI)评估贝利尤单抗(静脉注射,10mg/kg)对关节和皮肤表现的有效性。在6、12、24和36个月时评估DAS28缓解(<2.6)、低疾病活动度(LDA,≥2.6且≤3.2)、CLASI = 0、1以及DAS28和CLASI指数改善≥20%、≥50%和≥70%的达成情况及预测因素。
在6、12和24个月时,分别有46%、57%和71%的患者实现DAS28 < 2.6。在6、12和24个月时,分别有36%、48%和62%的患者实现CLASI = 0。贝利尤单抗显示出糖皮质激素节省效应,在6、12、24和36个月时,分别有8.5%、15.4%、25.6%和31.6%的患者无需使用糖皮质激素。与未达到的患者相比,在6个月时达到DAS-LDA和CLASI-50的患者在12个月时缓解的可能性更高(分别为P = 0.034和P = 0.028)。
在现实生活中,贝利尤单抗使相当一部分有关节或皮肤受累的患者临床症状得到改善,并与糖皮质激素节省效应相关。相当一部分在6个月时部分缓解的患者在后续随访中实现了缓解。
