ABSTRACT
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.
