- W4318563955 abstract "Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) has been long used in the treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Further studies are warranted to investigate its long-term use in maintenance treatment of lupus nephritis (LN). The purpose of this study was to describe our practice experience using MMF with regard to its indications, safety, tolerability, and treatment efficacy. We sought to identify rates of renal remission, flare and progression to end-stage renal disease (ESRD).In this retrospective chart review, we identified all patients treated with MMF between 1999 and 2019. Descriptive statistics were used to identify occurrence of remission, occurrence of flares, progression to ESRD, and occurrence of adverse effects.One hundred and one patients were treated with MMF for a mean duration of 69 months. The most common indication was LN (90%). Among patients with LN, 60% achieved complete remission and 16% achieved partial remission at one-year follow-up. Ten patients flared while on maintenance therapy and seven patients flared after treatment was discontinued. Of the 40 patients who were treated for at least five years, one patient developed a flare. Of the 13 patients who were treated for at least 10 years, none developed a flare. One patient on maintenance therapy progressed to ESRD. The most common adverse effects were leukopenia (9%), nausea (7%) and diarrhea (6%).Maintenance treatment with MMF constitutes an effective long-term treatment for lupus nephritis. Our practice demonstrates its tolerability over many years with few adverse effects, prevention of renal flares, and a low progression rate to ESRD." @default.
