RESUMO
Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS) are orphan hereditary auto-inflammatory diseases with various phenotypes, including chronic kidney disease (CKD). Current therapies inhibit interleukin-1 (IL-1) to achieve clinical and serological remission; however, the effect on kidney involvement remains unclear. The objective of this study was to investigate the long-term efficacy of anti-IL-1 treatment with special emphasis on renal outcome. We retrospectively analysed clinical, genetic and laboratory data of patients with CAPS under anti-IL-1 therapy from a single-centre university outpatient clinic. Patients with CAPS (n = 28) were followed for a median of 11 (IQR 8.5-13) years. Four patients at various ages (19%), bearing the most common CAPS mutation R260W, had significant CKD at presentation. All affected patients were related; however, other family members with the same genetic variant did not develop CKD. While anti-IL-1 therapy was effective in lowering symptom burden and inflammatory parameters in all CAPS patients, two of the four individuals with significant CKD had persistent proteinuria and worsening kidney function. None of the patients without renal affection at therapy initiation developed relevant CKD in the follow-up period. We showed that in patients with CAPS: (1) CKD is a common complication; (2) renal involvement shows familial predisposition beyond the mutational status and is independent of age; (3) anti-IL-1 therapy results in sustained improvement of inflammatory parameters and symptom load and (4) may prevent development of CAPS-associated CKD but not affect kidney involvement when already present. Overall, early therapy initiation might sufficiently prevent renal disease manifestation and attenuate progression.

OBJECTIVE: Interim analysis of the RELIANCE registry, an on-going, non-interventional, open-label, multicentre, prospective study evaluating the long-term safety, dosing regimens and effectiveness of canakinumab in patients with cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS), familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), tumour-necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS) or mevalonate-kinase deficiency (MKD)/hyperimmunoglobulin-D syndrome (HIDS). METHODS: From September 2017 for patients with CAPS, and June 2018 for patients with FMF, TRAPS or MKD/HIDS, the registry enrolled paediatric (aged ≥2 years) and adult patients (aged ≥18 years) receiving canakinumab as part of their routine medical care. Safety, canakinumab dose, disease activity and quality of life outcome measures were evaluated at baseline and every 6 months until end of study visit. RESULTS: At the analysis cut-off date (December 2020), 168 patients (91 CAPS, 54 FMF, 16 TRAPS and 7 MKD/HIDS) were enrolled. 85 (50.9%) patients were female and 72 (43.1%) were children (<18 years). The median patient age was 20.0 years (range 2.0-79.0 years). In the CAPS cohort, serious infections and serious adverse drug-reactions were more common in patients receiving higher than the recommended starting dose (SD) of canakinumab. A trend to receive >SD of canakinumab was observed in the pooled population. The majority of patients were reported as having either absent or mild/moderate disease activity (physician's global assessment) from baseline to Month 30, with a stable proportion of patients (~70%) in remission under canakinumab treatment. Patient-reported disease activity (Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Autoinflammatory Disease Activity Index), fatigue (VAS); markers of inflammation (C-reactive protein, serum amyloid A and erythrocyte sedimentation rate) remained well-controlled throughout. CONCLUSION: Data from this analysis confirm the long-term safety and effectiveness of canakinumab for the treatment of CAPS, FMF, TRAPS and MKD/HIDS.

We report the first case of a 32-year-old woman with Muckle-Wells syndrome and biopsy-proven systemic AA amyloidosis and end-stage renal disease. She was treated with canakinumab 150 mg subcutaneously every 8 weeks and underwent renal transplantation. Fourteen months after renal transplanation, the patient had no flares of Muckle-Wells syndrome and no evidence of amyloidosis in the renal transplant under an excellent graft function and therapy with canakinumab.
