Incidence rates of interstitial lung disease events among patients with rheumatoid arthritis treated with abatacept or placebo, with background methotrexate: a post hoc pooled analysis from a compendium of clinical trials
Background
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a common and serious complication of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and is associated with increased morbidity, mortality, and healthcare resource utilization.
Objective
To determine incidence rates (IRs) of ILD events in patients enrolled in clinical trials for RA who received abatacept + methotrexate (MTX) versus placebo + MTX.
Methods
We performed a retrospective analysis of pooled safety data from 10 phase 3 clinical trials of adult patients. ILD events included acute respiratory events suggestive of pneumonitis/ILD. Crude IRs per 100 person-years for baseline demographics and disease characteristics within treatment groups and IR ratios (IRRs) for placebo + MTX versus abatacept + MTX were estimated.
Results
Overall, 3708 (10,521 person-years) were treated with abatacept + MTX and 999 patients were treated with placebo + MTX (938 person-years). Patients treated with abatacept + MTX had a lower rate of ILD events versus patients treated with placebo + MTX: IR (95 % CI) 0.10 (0.05–0.18) versus 0.43 (0.16–1.14), respectively (IRR [95 % CI] 4.49 [1.23–13.42] for placebo + MTX vs abatacept + MTX). Patients with RA aged ≥ 55 years, body mass index < 30 kg/m2, no history of smoking, no baseline disease-modifying antirheumatic drug use other than MTX, no prior tumor necrosis factor inhibitor use, high DAS28-CRP, and rheumatoid factor or anti-citrullinated protein antibody positivity who were receiving corticosteroid(s) had a significantly lower rate of ILD events if treated with abatacept + MTX versus placebo + MTX.
Conclusion
In this post hoc analysis, patients with RA who received abatacept had a lower rate of ILD events, including the subgroups of older age, lower body mass index, and no smoking history, compared with placebo. This warrants further investigation in prospective, controlled studies.
