Abstract
Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs) can be associated with malignancy, therefore concomitant malignancy management will improve the response of IIM to immunosuppressive agents. This study aimed to study the characteristics of malignancy among IIM patients at Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital. We identified 106 patients diagnosed with IIM between 2018 and April 2025, collected data on malignancy risk stratification using International Myositis Assessment and Clinical Studied (IMACS) 2023 criteria, malignancy occurrence (proven or suspected), and myositis-specific antibodies (MSA). The patients were predominantly female (75; 70.7%) with (57; 53%) aged over 40 years. Dermatomyositis (DM) was the most common subtype (48; 45.3%), followed by Polymyositis (PM) (25; 23.6%), Immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM) (19; 17.9%), ASSD (3; 2.8%), and Overlap myositis (OM) (24; 22.64%). According to IMACS, 34 (32.7%) and 30 (28.3%) patients were at high risk and moderate risk for malignancy, respectively. Malignancy was confirmed in 16 patients (14.9%), including cases of Hepatocellular carcinoma, Ovarian and Gastrointestinal adenocarcinoma, Acute myeloid leukemia, Lymphoma, Lung, Thyroid, and Nasopharyngeal cancers. DM was the most frequently associated subtype (13/16,81.25%); within this group, one patient was juvenile-onset DM. Two malignancies occurred in overlap myositis (OM) patients with HCC and Thyroid cancer. Most cancers (13 out of 16) were detected within three years after IIM onset. TIF1-γ was the most commonly detected MSA in malignancy cases. Additionally, 12 patients (11.32%) underwent evaluation for suspected neoplasm, with DM being the most common associated subtype (41.67%). Similar to overall population studies, DM was the most prevalent IIM subtype linked to malignancy, with TIF1-γ as the primary MSA. Prompt cancer screening is essential, especially in high-risk IMACS patients, as even those with OM and SLE may have an increased risk of malignancy.
期刊介绍:
This international, multidisciplinary journal covers all aspects of neuromuscular disorders in childhood and adult life (including the muscular dystrophies, spinal muscular atrophies, hereditary neuropathies, congenital myopathies, myasthenias, myotonic syndromes, metabolic myopathies and inflammatory myopathies).
The Editors welcome original articles from all areas of the field:
• Clinical aspects, such as new clinical entities, case studies of interest, treatment, management and rehabilitation (including biomechanics, orthotic design and surgery).
• Basic scientific studies of relevance to the clinical syndromes, including advances in the fields of molecular biology and genetics.
• Studies of animal models relevant to the human diseases.
The journal is aimed at a wide range of clinicians, pathologists, associated paramedical professionals and clinical and basic scientists with an interest in the study of neuromuscular disorders.
