The impact of two different rituximab-based strategies in cryoglobulinaemic vasculitis secondary to Sjögren's disease: a monocentric cohort study.
Objectives: To compare two different rituximab (RTX)-based therapeutic approaches on vasculitic and lymphoproliferative-related disease activity and on non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) development in a cohort of patients affected by cryoglobulinaemic vasculitis secondary to Sjögren's disease (Sjögren-CryoVasc).
Methods: Three Sjögren-CryoVasc treatment groups were identified: 1) early RTX induction followed by maintenance; 2) late RTX induction with possible on-demand retreatment; 3) no RTX treatment. The following outcomes were evaluated: a) changes in cumulative ESSDAI, considering vasculitic-related and lymphoproliferative-related domains and changes in ESSDAI specific to each single vasculitic-related and lymphoproliferative-related domain; b) development of NHL; c) occurrence of persistent hypogammaglobulinemia associated with serious infections.
Results: 13 Sjögren-CryoVasc patients were identified: 1) 5/13 treated earlier with RTX with subsequent maintenance; 2) 5/13 treated late with RTX with possible on-demand retreatment; 3) 3/13 not treated with RTX. The two RTX groups showed a decrease in the ESSDAI score with group 1 showing the most substantial reduction (p=0.028). Patients receiving RTX exhibited significant improvement in cutaneous, PNS, and articular vasculitic-related ESSDAI domains (p=0.007; p=0.006; p=0.03, respectively). By contrast RTX did not greatly affect the lymphoproliferative-related ESSDAI domains, even if an improvement was noted in the glandular and nodal domains for group 1 (p=0.03; p=0.03, respectively). No differences in NHL occurrence or safety concerns were observed among the groups.
Conclusions: RTX is an effective and safe treatment to control Sjögren-CryoVasc disease activity with a greater impact when administered earlier with a maintenance regimen. RTX alone cannot, however, affect the possible evolution of Sjögren-CryoVasc into an overt NHL.
