RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: Data about hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) levels during pregnancy are sparse. We assessed HCQ whole blood levels at first trimester of pregnancy as a potential predictor of maternal and obstetric/fetal outcomes in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). METHODS: We included pregnant SLE patients enrolled in the prospective GR2 study receiving HCQ, with at least one available first-trimester whole-blood HCQ assay. We evaluated several cut-offs for HCQ whole blood levels, including ≤200 ng/ml for severe non-adherence. Primary outcomes were maternal flares during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy, and adverse pregnancy outcomes (APOs: fetal/neonatal death, placental insufficiency with preterm delivery, and small-for-gestational-age neonates). RESULTS: We included 174 patients (median age: 32.1 years, IQR 28.8-35.2). Thirty (17.2%) patients had flares, 4 (2.3%) being severe. APOs occurred in 28 patients (16.1%). There were no significant differences in APOs by HCQ level for either those with subtherapeutic HCQ levels (≤500 ng/ml vs >500 ng/ml: 23.5% vs 14.3%, p = 0.19) or those with non-adherent HCQ levels (≤200 ng/ml vs >200 ng/ml: 20.0% vs 15.7%, p = 0.71). Similarly, the overall rate of maternal flares did not differ significantly by HCQ level cut-off, but patients with subtherapeutic (HCQ ≤500 ng/ml: 8.8% vs 0.7%, p = 0.02) and non-adherent HCQ levels (≤200 ng/ml: 13.3% vs 1.3%, p = 0.04) had significantly more severe flares. CONCLUSION: In this large prospective study of pregnant SLE patients, first-trimester subtherapeutic (≤500 ng/ml) and severe non-adherent (≤200 ng/ml) HCQ levels were associated with severe maternal flares, but not with APOs. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02450396.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Patients with X linked agammaglobulinemia are susceptible to enterovirus (EV) infections. Similarly, severe EV infections have been described in patients with impaired B-cell response following treatment with anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), mostly in those treated for haematological malignancies. We aimed to describe severe EV infections in patients receiving anti-CD20 mAbs for immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs). METHODS: Patients were included following a screening of data collected through the routine surveillance of EV infections coordinated by the National Reference Center and a review of the literature. Additionally, neutralising antibodies were assessed in a patient with chronic EV-A71 meningoencephalitis. RESULTS: Nine original and 17 previously published cases were retrieved. Meningoencephalitis (n=21/26, 81%) associated with EV-positive cerebrospinal fluid (n=20/22, 91%) was the most common manifestation. The mortality rate was high (27%). EV was the only causal agents in all reported cases. Patients received multiple anti-CD20 mAbs infusions (median 8 (5-10)), resulting in complete B-cell depletion and moderate hypogammaglobulinemia (median 4.9 g/L (4.3-6.7)), and had limited concomitant immunosuppressive treatments. Finally, in a patient with EV-A71 meningoencephalitis, a lack of B-cell response to EV was shown. CONCLUSION: EV infection should be evoked in patients with IMIDs presenting with atypical organ involvement, especially meningoencephalitis. Anti-CD20 mAbs may lead to impaired B-cell response against EV, although an underlying primary immunodeficiency should systematically be discussed.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Adverse pregnancy outcomes in women with primary Sjögren's syndrome have only been evaluated retrospectively using heterogeneous methods and with contradictory results. We aimed to describe adverse pregnancy, delivery, and birth outcome risks in pregnant women with primary Sjögren's syndrome compared with those of a matched general population in France, and to identify factors predictive of disease flares or adverse pregnancy outcomes. METHODS: We conducted a multicentre, prospective, cohort study in France using the GR2 (Groupe de Recherche sur la Grossesse et les Maladies Rares) registry. Women from the GR2 study were eligible if they had conceived before March, 2021, had primary Sjögren's syndrome according to the American College of Rheumatology and European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR) 2016 classification criteria, and had an ongoing pregnancy at 12 weeks of gestation. In women who entered in the registry with pregnancies before 18 weeks of gestation, we sought to identify factors associated with primary Sjögren's syndrome flare (≥3-point increase in EULAR Sjögren's Syndrome Disease Activity Index [ESSDAI] score) or adverse pregnancy outcomes (fetal or neonatal death, placental insufficiency leading to a preterm delivery [<37 weeks of gestation], or small-for-gestational-age birthweight). A matched controlled study compared adverse pregnancy, delivery, and birth outcome rates between pregnant women with primary Sjögren's syndrome from the GR2 registry and matched controls from the general population included in the last French perinatal survey (Enquête Nationale Périnatale 2016). FINDINGS: 1944 pregnancies were identified in the GR2 cohort, of which 106 pregnancies in 96 women with primary Sjögren's syndrome were included in this analysis. The median age at pregnancy onset was 33 years (IQR 31-36). 87 (83%) of 105 pregnancies (with ethnicity data) were in White women, 18 (17%) were in Black women; 92 (90%) of 102 had previous systemic activity (ESSDAI score of ≥1; data missing in four pregnancies), and 48 (45%) of 106 had systemic activity at inclusion. Of 93 pregnancies included at week 18 of gestation or earlier, primary Sjögren's syndrome flares occurred in 12 (13%). No baseline parameters were associated with primary Sjögren's syndrome flare. Four twin pregnancies and one medical termination were excluded from the adverse pregnancy outcome analysis; of the remaining 88, adverse pregnancy outcomes occurred in six (7%). Among pregnancies in women with data for antiphospholipid antibodies (n=55), antiphospholipid antibody positivity was more frequent among pregnancies with adverse outcomes (two [50%] of four pregnancies) compared with those without adverse outcomes (two [4%] of 51 pregnancies; p=0·023). Anti-RNP antibody positivity was also more frequent among pregnancies with adverse outcomes than those without, although this was not statistically significant. In the matched controlled study, adverse pregnancy outcomes occurred in nine (9%) of 105 pregnancies in women with primary Sjögren's syndrome and 28 (7%) of the 420 matched control pregnancies; adverse pregnancy outcomes were not significantly associated with primary Sjögren's syndrome (odds ratio 1·31, 95% CI 0·53-2·98; p=0·52). INTERPRETATION: Pregnancies in women with primary Sjögren's syndrome had very good prognoses for mothers and fetuses, with no overall increase in adverse pregnancy outcome risk compared with the general population. Women with antiphospholipid antibodies or anti-RNP antibodies require close monitoring, because these factors might be associated with a higher risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Prospective data about the risks of thrombotic and severe haemorrhagic complications during pregnancy and post partum are unavailable for women with antiphospholipid syndrome. We aimed to assess thrombotic and haemorrhagic events in a prospective cohort of pregnant women with antiphospholipid syndrome. METHODS: This multicentre, prospective, observational study was done at 76 centres in France. To be eligible for this study, women had to have diagnosis of antiphospholipid syndrome; have conceived before April 17, 2020; have an ongoing pregnancy that had reached 12 weeks of gestation; and be included in the study before 18 weeks of gestation. Exclusion criteria were active systemic lupus erythematosus nephropathy, or a multifetal pregnancy. Severe haemorrhage was defined as the need for red blood cell transfusion or maternal intensive care unit admission because of bleeding or invasive procedures, defined as interventional radiology or surgery, to control bleeding. The GR2 study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02450396. FINDINGS: Between May 26, 2014, and April 17, 2020, 168 pregnancies in 27 centres met the inclusion criteria for the study. 89 (53%) of 168 women had a history of thrombosis. The median term at inclusion was 8 weeks gestation. 16 (10%) of 168 women (95%CI 5-15) had a thrombotic (six [4%] women; 95% CI 1-8) or severe haemorrhagic event (12 [7%] women; 95% CI 4-12). There were no deaths during the study. The main risk factors for thrombotic events were lupus anticoagulant positivity at inclusion (six [100%] of six women with thrombosis vs 78 [51%] of 152 of those with no thrombosis; p=0·030) and placental insufficiency (four [67%] of six women vs 28 [17%] of 162 women; p=0·013). The main risk factors for severe haemorrhagic events were pre-existing maternal hypertension (four [33%] of 12 women vs 11 [7%] of 156 women; p=0·014), lupus anticoagulant positivity at inclusion (12 [100%] of 12 women vs 72 [49%] of 146 women; p<0·0001) and during antiphospholipid history (12 [100%] of 12 women vs 104 [67%] of 156 women; p=0·019), triple antiphospholipid antibody positivity (eight [67%] of 12 women vs 36 [24%] of 147 women; p=0·0040), placental insufficiency (five [42%] of 12 women vs 27 [17%] of 156 women; p=0·038), and preterm delivery at 34 weeks or earlier (five [45%] of 11 women vs 12 [8%] of 145 women; p=0·0030). INTERPRETATION: Despite treatment adhering to international recommendations, a proportion of women with antiphospholipid syndrome developed a thrombotic or severe haemorrhagic complication related to pregnancy, most frequently in the post-partum period. Lupus anticoagulant and placental insufficiency were risk factors for these life-threatening complications. These complications are difficult to prevent, but knowledge of the antenatal characteristics associated with them should increase awareness and help physicians manage these high-risk pregnancies.
