Abstract
Introduction: Clinical epidemiological data on monoclonal gammopathy of renal significance (MGRS) are lacking. In this retrospective observational study, MGRS was compared with B-cell or plasma cell malignancies (BCM/PCM) with renal involvement to clarify differences in their clinical features.
Methods: Among the 1408 renal biopsies performed at our hospital, 25 MGRS and 18 BCM/PCM patients were identified. We investigated baseline characteristics and hematologic parameters of MGRS in reference to BCM/PCM using multivariable analysis. Cox proportional hazards analysis was performed for end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) and all-cause mortality.
Results: Comparing the MGRS with the BCM/PCM, mean differences in creatinine level, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and clonal bone marrow plasma cell percentage were - 2.76 mg/dL, 27.72 mL/min/1.73 m2, and - 18.86%, respectively (all P < 0.001). MGRS group had a predominance of glomerular lesions such as immunoglobulin-associated amyloidosis, cryoglobulinemic GN, and MIDD, and a lower risk of acute kidney injury/acute renal disease compared to BCM/PCM. During a median observation period of 23.7 months, clone-directed therapy was performed in 32.0% of patients in the MGRS group, compared to 83.3% of patients in the BCM/PCM group. Compared with BCM/PCM, MGRS had a hazard ratio of 0.66 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.23-1.92, P = 0.45) for ESKD and 0.33 (95% CI 0.11-1.03, P = 0.06) for death in multivariate logistic regression analysis.
Conclusions: The clinical characteristics of MGRS and BCM/PCM with monoclonal immunoglobulin-associated renal disease are disparate. Understanding these differences is crucial for developing tailored clinical approaches and therapeutic strategies to improve patient outcome.
期刊介绍：
Clinical and Experimental Nephrology is a peer-reviewed monthly journal, officially published by the Japanese Society of Nephrology (JSN) to provide an international forum for the discussion of research and issues relating to the study of nephrology. Out of respect for the founders of the JSN, the title of this journal uses the term “nephrology,” a word created and brought into use with the establishment of the JSN (Japanese Journal of Nephrology, Vol. 2, No. 1, 1960). The journal publishes articles on all aspects of nephrology, including basic, experimental, and clinical research, so as to share the latest research findings and ideas not only with members of the JSN, but with all researchers who wish to contribute to a better understanding of recent advances in nephrology. The journal is unique in that it introduces to an international readership original reports from Japan and also the clinical standards discussed and agreed by JSN.
