- W3164815799 abstract "Background: Skeletal muscle is known as one of the organ involvements of primary systemic vasculitis. 1,2 Muscle inflammation is detected by magnetic resonance imaging, and necrotizing vasculitis is proved by muscle biopsy. 3 As with systemic vasculitis or single organ vasculitis, glucocorticoid (GC) and immunosuppressants are used in its treatment. 4 There are not many reports about muscular vasculitis, and its long-term clinical course after initial treatment, including the rates of relapse and mortality, remains unclear. Objectives: To identify the predictors of relapse and mortality in patients with muscular vasculitis, especially focusing on the status of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA). Methods: We retrospectively reviewed patients diagnosed with necrotizing vasculitis with muscle involvements in our hospital between 2004 and 2020. In all cases, muscular vasculitis was identified by muscle biopsy or magnetic resonance imaging. To focus on the clinical features of muscular vasculitis, we excluded patients with such severe organ involvements as cardiovascular, abdominal, cerebral, severe renal, and severe pulmonary involvements. We compared the 5-year cumulative incidence of relapse, the overall survival rate, and the dose of GC over 5 years between the ANCA-positive and ANCA-negative groups. A relapse was defined as any new or worsened state of disease activity requiring an escalation of GC dose. Gray’s method was used for assessing the cumulative incidence of relapse. The log-rank test was used for assessing overall survival. The Mann-Whitney U test was used for assessing the dose of GC. The possible factors for relapse in 5 years in a univariate analysis were selected for a multivariate analysis using the Cox proportional hazards model. Results: Forty-nine patients were enrolled. The median age of onset was 77 (69-82) years and 71.4% were women. There were 30 ANCA-positive patients (90.0% with anti-myeloperoxidase) and 19 ANCA-negative patients. The median age and the number of patients with renal involvements were higher in the ANCA-positive group than in the ANCA-negative group (73.0 ± 9.29 years vs. 79.5 ± 20.28 years, p=0.0062 and 7/30 [23.3%] vs. 0/19 [0.0%], p=0.034, respectively). The Birmingham Vasculitis Activity Score (ver. 3), the induction dose of GC, and the rate of immunosuppressants use were not significantly different between the two groups. During the observational period, 24 patients relapsed. The 5-year cumulative incidence of relapse was significantly higher in the ANCA-positive group than in the ANCA-negative group (p=0.026) (Figure 1). The Cox proportional hazards model revealed that the presence of ANCA was an independent risk factor for relapse (hazard ratio: 3.15; 95% confidence interval 1.06–9.38; p=0.040). During the observational period, 9 patients died (3 died from cancer, 1 from interstitial pneumonia, 1 from cerebral hemorrhage, 1 from infection, and 3 from unknown reasons). The ANCA-positive group exhibited a higher mortality rate than the ANCA-negative group without a statistical significance (p=0.12). The 5-year cumulative dose of GC was larger in the ANCA-positive group than in the ANCA-negative group without a statistical significance (14786 [11246–19138] mg vs. 10088 [7129–12634] mg, p=0.12). Conclusion: In muscular vasculitis, the presence of ANCA is an independent risk factor for long-term relapse. Stratified treatment depending on the ANCA status may reduce the relapse rate and the occurrence of side effects of GC in patients with muscular vasculitis. References: [1]Kitching AR et al.
