The recurrence of disease activity after ocrelizumab discontinuation in multiple sclerosis
Introduction
Ocrelizumab (OCR) is a highly effective treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS), and B cell repopulation profiles suggest that it might be used as an immune reconstitution therapy. However, data on disease recurrence after stopping treatment with OCR are scarce. Our objective was to evaluate the recurrence of disease activity after OCR discontinuation.
Methods
In this multicenter retrospective cohort study, we included MS patients who discontinued OCR, without switching to another treatment, for twelve months or more, after having received at least one full dosage of 600 mg. We defined focal inflammation as the occurrence of a clinical relapse or significant MRI activity (≥3 new T2 lesions or ≥2 contrast-enhancing lesions).
Results
We included 53 MS patients; 41 relapsing remitting (RRMS), 5 secondary progressive (SPMS) and 7 primary progressive (PPMS) patients. Median follow-up period after OCR discontinuation was 16 months. We only observed focal inflammation after discontinuation in RRMS patients; 2.4 % (1/41) patients presented with significant MRI activity and matching clinical symptoms, and 7.3 % (3/41) patients presented with a suspected clinical relapse without radiological activity: a total of 9.8 % (4/41) at a median time of 17 months after the last infusion.
Discussion
We found focal inflammation after discontinuation of OCR in 4 (9.8 %) of the RRMS patients, of which 1 was radiologically confirmed. Our observations highlight that recurrence of focal inflammation seems low but discontinuation may not be appropriate for everyone. Further larger studies are important to determine the immune reconstitution therapy potential of OCR.
期刊介绍:
Multiple Sclerosis is an area of ever expanding research and escalating publications. Multiple Sclerosis and Related Disorders is a wide ranging international journal supported by key researchers from all neuroscience domains that focus on MS and associated disease of the central nervous system. The primary aim of this new journal is the rapid publication of high quality original research in the field. Important secondary aims will be timely updates and editorials on important scientific and clinical care advances, controversies in the field, and invited opinion articles from current thought leaders on topical issues. One section of the journal will focus on teaching, written to enhance the practice of community and academic neurologists involved in the care of MS patients. Summaries of key articles written for a lay audience will be provided as an on-line resource.
A team of four chief editors is supported by leading section editors who will commission and appraise original and review articles concerning: clinical neurology, neuroimaging, neuropathology, neuroepidemiology, therapeutics, genetics / transcriptomics, experimental models, neuroimmunology, biomarkers, neuropsychology, neurorehabilitation, measurement scales, teaching, neuroethics and lay communication.
