- W2006779897 abstract "Pemphigus is a rare life-threatening intractable autoimmune blistering disease caused by IgG autoantibodies to desmogleins. It has been difficult to conduct a double-blind clinical study for pemphigus partly because, in a placebo group, appropriate treatment often must be provided when the disease flares.A multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial was conducted to investigate the therapeutic effect of a single cycle of high-dose intravenous immunoglobulin (400, 200, or 0 mg/kg/d) administered over 5 consecutive days in patients relatively resistant to systemic steroids.We evaluated efficacy with time to escape from the protocol as a novel primary end point, and pemphigus activity score, antidesmoglein enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay scores, and safety as secondary end points.We enrolled 61 patients with pemphigus vulgaris or pemphigus foliaceus who did not respond to prednisolone (> or =20 mg/d). Time to escape from the protocol was significantly prolonged in the 400-mg group compared with the placebo group (P < .001), and a dose-response relationship among the 3 treatment groups was observed (P < .001). Disease activity and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay scores were significantly lower in the 400-mg group than in the other groups (P < .05 on day 43, P < .01 on day 85). There was no significant difference in the safety end point among the 3 treatment groups.Prednisolone at 20 mg/d or more may not be high enough to define steroid resistance.Intravenous immunoglobulin (400 mg/kg/d for 5 d) in a single cycle is an effective and safe treatment for patients with pemphigus who are relatively resistant to systemic steroids. Time to escape from the protocol is a useful indicator for evaluation in randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind studies of rare and serious diseases." @default.
