Defining criteria for disease activity states in systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis based on the systemic Juvenile Arthritis Disease Activity Score. Arthritis Rheumatol 2024. [PMID: 38682570 DOI: 10.1002/art.42865] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/05/2023] [Revised: 02/06/2024] [Accepted: 04/03/2024] [Indexed: 05/01/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop and validate cutoff values in the systemic Juvenile Arthritis Disease Activity Score 10 (sJADAS10) that distinguish the states of inactive disease (ID), minimal disease activity (MiDA), moderate disease activity (MoDA), and high disease activity (HDA) in children with systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA), based on subjective disease state assessment by the treating pediatric rheumatologist. METHODS The cutoffs definition cohort was composed of 400 patients enrolled at 30 pediatric rheumatology centers in 11 countries. Using the subjective physician rating as an external criterion, 6 methods were applied to identify the cutoffs: mapping, calculation of percentiles of cumulative score distribution, Youden index, 90% specificity, maximum agreement, and ROC curve analysis. Sixty percent of the patients were assigned to the definition cohort and 40% to the validation cohort. Cutoff validation was conducted by assessing discriminative ability. RESULTS The sJADAS10 cutoffs that separated ID from MiDA, MiDA from MoDA, and MoDA from HDA were ≤ 2.9, ≤ 10, and > 20.6. The cutoffs discriminated strongly among different levels of pain, between patients with or without morning stiffness, and between patients whose parents judged their disease status as remission or persistent activity/flare or were satisfied or not satisfied with current illness outcome. CONCLUSION The sJADAS cutoffs revealed good metrologic properties in both definition and validation cohorts, and are therefore suitable for use in clinical trials and routine practice.

Intensive Safety Monitoring of Rituximab (Biosimilar Novex ® and the Innovator) in Pediatric Patients With Complex Diseases. Front Pharmacol 2022; 12:785770. [PMID: 35153748 PMCID: PMC8827405 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2021.785770] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2021] [Accepted: 12/14/2021] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Although rituximab is widely used off-label for complex pediatric diseases, safety reports are limited. We aimed to report evidence of its use in clinical practice, to describe the incidence of adverse drug reactions (ADR) to rituximab biosimilar Novex® and innovator, and to identify risk factors for the development of ADR in a real-life follow-up cohort of pediatric patients with complex diseases. We conducted a prospective, longitudinal, observational, single-centre study in patients that received rituximab for any complex disease, and as part of an intensive pharmacovigilance program. Demographic, pharmacological, clinical, and drug-related data were collected for all patients. ADR-free survival, including infusion-related reactions (IRR) and delayed ADR (dADR), was estimated using Kaplan-Meier curves. Risk factors were evaluated by multivariable Cox regression models. In total, 77 patients (<19 y.o.) received 187 infusions of rituximab Novex® (n = 155) or innovator rituximab (n = 32) for neurologic (Neu), immune-hematologic-rheumatic (IHR), oncologic (O) diseases, and hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT) or solid-organ transplantation (SOT). We recorded 29 IRR and 58 dADR that occurred in 27 (35.1%) and 29 (37.7%) patients, respectively. The respiratory tract was the most affected during IRR (29.6%) and hypogammaglobulinemia (37.9 %) was the most frequent dADR. First versus subsequent infusions (HR 5.4, CI95% 2.4-12.1, p<0.05), sex (boys vs. girls, HR 0.3, CI95% 0.1-0.8, and p<0.05), and diagnosis (Neu-IHR diseases vs. O-HSCT-SOT, HR 2.3, CI95% 1.02-5.4, and p < 0.05) were significantly associated with the development of IRR. For dADR, risk factors were diagnosis (Neu-IHR diseases vs. O-HSCT-SOT, HR 0.4, CI95% 0.2-0.9, and p < 0.05) and cumulative body surface area-normalized dosage (HR 1.0003, CI95% 1.0001-1.0006, and p < 0.05). The present is the largest real-world safety assessment of rituximab in Latin-American children with complex diseases supporting its use based on the overall acceptable safety. Identification of risk factors may contribute to optimization of off-label rituximab treatment in pediatrics.

Abstract
Takayasu arteritis is an idiopathic granulomatous vasculitis of the aorta and its main branches and it constitutes one of the more common vasculitides in children. Inflammation and intimal proliferation lead to wall thickening, stenotic or occlusive lesions, and thrombosis, while destruction of the elastica and muscularis layers originates aneurysms and dissection. Carotid artery tenderness, claudication, ocular disturbances, central nervous system abnormalities, and weakening of pulses are the most frequent clinical features. The diagnosis is usually confirmed by the observation of large vessel wall abnormalities: stenosis, aneurysms, occlusion, and evidence of increased collateral circulation in angiography, MRA or CTA imaging. The purpose of this revision is to address the current knowledge on pathogenesis, investigations, classification, outcome measures and management, and to emphasize the need for timely diagnosis, effective therapeutic intervention, and close monitoring of this severe condition.

Abstract
The monogenic autoinflammatory diseases are rare, genetic disorders resulting in constitutive innate immune defects leading to excessive response to danger signals, spontaneous activation of inflammatory mediators or loss of inhibitory regulators. During the past 15 years, a growing number of monogenic inflammatory diseases have been described and their respective responsible genes identified. The proteins encoded by these genes are involved in the regulatory pathways of inflammation and are mostly expressed in cells of the innate immune system. Although a group of patients exhibit episodic systemic inflammation (periodic fevers), these disorders are mediated by continuous overproduction and release of pro-inflammatory mediators, notably IL-1β, and are best considered as autoinflammatory diseases rather than periodic fevers. The most common autoinflammatory diseases are familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), TNF receptor-associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS), mevalonate kinase deficiency/hyperimmunoglobulin D syndrome (MKD/HIDS) and the cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS). Clinical features often include fever, cutaneous rash, serosal involvement and acute phase reactants. Autoantibodies are usually absent but may accompany certain syndromes. Diagnosis remains clinical and is based on the different phenotypic features. Genetic diagnosis is of utmost importance, but must be performed judiciously and interpreted cautiously. Treatment with biologic agents that block proinflammatory cytokines, particularly IL-1, has proved to be dramatically effective in many patients. Still, in many cases of autoinflammation no genetic abnormalities are detected and treatment remains suboptimal, raising the question of novel pathogenic mutations in unexplored genes and pathways.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (SJIA) frequently leads to disability and damage. Predictive factors for a poor outcome include persistent systemic features and younger age at onset. We describe and analyze disease features in patients with early-onset (EO) SJIA (disease onset before age 18 mo) and compare them to patients with later-onset (LO) disease. METHODS Clinical features at onset, activity measures (occurrence of macrophage activation syndrome, remission), and outcome measures for disability [Childhood Health Assessment Questionnaire (CHAQ) ≥ 0.5] and damage [radiographic joint destruction, Juvenile Arthritis Damage Index (JADI) score, growth retardation] observed during followup were analyzed retrospectively in patients with SJIA followed for ≥ 3 years since disease onset. RESULTS In total 132 patients were included. SJIA started at age ≤ 18 months in 19 (14%) patients and at a later age in 113 (86%) children. At onset, serositis (p < 0.01) and hepatomegaly (p < 0.05) were more frequent in EO patients, who also exhibited lower hemoglobin levels (p < 0.03) and higher platelet counts (p < 0.03) than patients with LO. Macrophage activation syndrome occurred in 20 patients (11 EO and 9 LO; p < 0.0001). Remission was achieved by 49 patients (37%; 4 EO and 45 LO). At last visit, destructive hip disease (p < 0.04), growth retardation (p < 0.01), radiographic damage (p < 0.02), and disability (p < 0.04) were more frequent in patients with EO disease, who had higher JADI scores (p < 0.003). CONCLUSION Patients with EO exhibited a more aggressive and destructive disease course than patients with LO SJIA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the frequency of clinical remission in a cohort of patients with systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) who received continuous anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) therapy; and to identify potential predictors of remission. METHODS Patients with systemic JIA who were treated with anti-TNF agents for > 6 months were studied. Demographic and nosologic variables recorded at the start of anti-TNF therapy were analyzed. Association between early variables and occurrence of remission was evaluated through Cox proportional hazard regression analysis. RESULTS Forty-five patients were included (30 girls), median age 9 years (range 2-17 yrs), age at disease onset 5 years (range 0.5-15), disease duration 3 years (range 0.5-13). Twenty-one (47%) children showed systemic symptoms at the start of anti-TNF therapy. Patients received therapy for 24 months (range 6-88): 45 (100%) were given etanercept, 17 (38%) infliximab, and 5 (11%) adalimumab, in combination with methotrexate. Anti-TNF switching was performed in 22 (49%) children. Eleven (24%) met definition criteria for remission while taking etanercept (n = 8), infliximab (2), or adalimumab (1). Remission occurred following 26 (range 9-65) months of therapy. Flares occurred in 5 (45%) patients 2 to 14 months after remission was first recorded. Absence of systemic symptoms at the start of therapy and fulfillment of improvement criteria at Month 3 were associated with remission in univariate analysis; no variable showed any association in multivariate analysis. CONCLUSION Twenty-four percent of patients with systemic JIA experienced remission with anti-TNF therapy, but only 13% experienced sustained benefit.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess damage in systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA) by the use of the Juvenile Arthritis Damage Index (JADI) and to identify early predictors of global, articular, and extraarticular damage. METHODS Forty-seven consecutive patients with sJIA with a disease duration > 24 months were assessed for damage in a cross-sectional evaluation. The JADI was administered by 2 pediatric rheumatologists. Damage was defined as JADI score >or= 1. Early clinical variables were retrieved from clinical records, and they included demographic, clinical, and laboratory characteristics. Univariate analysis was used to select candidate predictors to be included in multiple logistic regression. RESULTS Twenty (43%) patients exhibited damage: 18 (38%) patients had articular and 9 (19%) extraarticular damage. JADI score ranged between 0 and 24. Cervical spine arthritis and corticosteroid usage occurring in the first 6 months of the disease course were found as predictors of damage. Damage scores correlated with number of joints with limited motion, and with functional disability. CONCLUSION Articular damage is the main component of global damage in patients with sJIA. Early cervical spine involvement and corticosteroid usage may identify patients with sJIA at risk of developing damage.

Abstract
We describe two 3-year-old patients with systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (SJIA) who developed hepatitis A-associated macrophage activation syndrome (MAS). One patient showed MAS as the presenting manifestation of SJIA, while MAS complicated SJIA during the second year of the disease course in the other child. Both girls presented with fever, jaundice, hepatosplenomegaly, neurological involvement, mucosal hemorrhage, and purpura. Cytopenias, hypofibrinogenemia, and hemophagocytosis confirmed the diagnosis. After aggressive treatment with high-dose corticosteroids and immunosuppressants one patient entered remission while the other one died. Hepatitis A virus may induce severe MAS in SJIA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Juvenile systemic sclerosis (JSS) is a multisystem connective tissue disease characterized by skin fibrosis and internal organ involvement. It has a low prevalence, even in a tertiary facility setting. The purpose of the present study is to describe and analyze the clinical and laboratory characteristics of a group of children with JSS followed in a single center. METHODS Clinical charts of children with a diagnosis of JSS who were seen at a tertiary referral center between 1995 and 2005 were reviewed. Clinical features were recorded and analysed. RESULTS Twenty-three patients who met preliminary classification criteria for JSS were included. Age at first symptom attributable to JSS was 6 (1-14) years, The first symptom attributable to JSS was Raynaud's phenomenon in 14 cases. Proximal sclerosis (23 patients, 100%), sclerodactyly (21, 91%), Raynaud's phenomenon (19, 83%), and periungual capillaropathy (17, 74%) were the most consistent clinical findings during follow-up. Respiratory involvement occurred in two thirds of our patients, and it manifested as dyspnea as well as abnormal imaging and/or pulmonary function tests; pulmonary hypertension was an infrequent finding. Dysphagia was the commonest gastrointestinal symptom (9 patients, 39%). The most frequent musculoskeletal symptom was arthralgia (14 children, 6%); symmetrical arthritis was found in 8 (35%) patients. Periungual capillary abnormalities were evident during physical examination in 17 children; capillaroscopy revealed abnormalities in all 19 examined patients. ANA were present in 17 (74%) children: homogeneous pattern was the most frequent (8 patients), nucleolar (5) and speckled (4) were less common. CONCLUSION Raynaud's phenomenon heralds the beginning of the disease. Capilaroscopy is a major adjuvant in the diagnosis, since autoantibody determination may not offer sensitive and specific markers. Skin and vascular manifestations are the most common clinical features, while internal organ involvement is more rare. Cardiopulmonary disease is the most frequent visceral involvement, leading to significant morbidity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyse the effectiveness and safety of Infliximab in a group of patients with systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (SJIA) who had failed treatment with etanercept in a single paediatric rheumatology clinic. METHODS Patients with SJIA with active polyarthritis refractory to methotrexate (MTX) [> or = 20 mg/m2/week] for at least 3 months and to etanercept (up to 1 mg/kg twice weekly) for at least 6 months were included. All children received infliximab 3-10 mg per kg of body weight intravenously concomitantly with MTX 7.5-10 mg/week for 19 (2-113) weeks. Evaluation included ACR paediatric 30 criteria and presence of signs of systemic activity (fever, rash). RESULTS Six patients were included. Three patients met ACR paediatric 30 criteria at 2 weeks (2 patients) and 10 weeks after initiation of infliximab. Improvement lasted for 4, 12, and 84 weeks respectively. The presence of fever/rash was not modified by the treatment. Infliximab was discontinued due to moderate side effects in 4 patients. No serious side effects were observed. CONCLUSIONS Most patients with SJIA who fail to respond to etanercept may not reach sustained improvement when switched to infliximab. The only patient in our group who improved sustainedly with infliximab did not show any systemic features at the beginning of therapy. Further controlled studies are needed in order to assess efficacy of infliximab in children with refractory SJIA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness of etanercept in patients with systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (SJIA) refractory to methotrexate (MTX) therapy in a pediatric rheumatology practice. METHODS Fifteen patients with SJIA with active polyarthritis refractory to higher dose MTX (> or = 20 mg/m2/week) for at least 3 months were included. Patients received etanercept 0.4 mg/Kg twice weekly concomitantly with MTX. Observed period of treatment ranged from 5 to 12 months (median 9 months). RESULTS Improvement of ESR, swollen and limited joint counts, functional capacity, and general wellbeing was achieved by 14/15 patients. The most significant impact on these variables was observed 3 to 5 months after treatment onset. Mean time to improvement was 2 months. In the 4 patients who presented fever and rash, these signs disappeared after the beginning of etanercept treatment and reappeared during flares. Three patients showed sustained clinical and biochemical remission on low dose MTX (< or = 5 mg/m2/week). Thirteen relapses were observed in 9 (60%) patients at a mean of 7.6 months after therapy was begun. Etanercept was discontinued due to lack of efficacy in 7 patients, only after higher dose (1 mg/kg/dose) was used. MTX and corticosteroid doses were decreased during the observation period. No serious side effects were observed. CONCLUSIONS Etanercept, in combination with MTX, demonstrated benefit soon after initiation of treatment in patients with refractory SJIA, but flares and progressive loss of effectiveness were observed with continued treatment in most patients. Sharp decreases in the dose of MTX and corticosteroids may have contributed to subsequent occurrence of flares. Changes in MTX and corticosteroids doses should probably need to be made gradually, and it is possible that patients on SJIA should continue on therapeutic doses of MTX while being on etanercept in order to maintain therapeutic benefit.

Abstract
UNLABELLED CINCA/IOMID is a systemic inflammatory disorder of unknown aetiology that resembles congenital infection and systemic juvenile chronic arthritis (JCA). This disorder is characterized by neonatal onset, persistent rash, ocular inflammatory lesions, and progressive articular and neurological involvement. We report two new patients with this syndrome. Both children presented periodic bouts of cutaneous rash, fever, organomegaly, articular involvement with typical radiological features, and developmental delay. One of the patients presented neonatal jaundice and elevation of liver enzymes; inflammatory infiltrates were observed in the liver biopsy. The other patient showed retinal vasculitis detected at age 18 mo on fundoscopy and fluorescent angiography. Therapy with azathioprine was associated with prolonged remission of this complication. In both cases, the disease was diagnosed after some delay. CONCLUSION Early hepatitis and retinal vasculitis are rare features of CINCA/IOMID that may help differentiate this syndrome from JRA. Azathioprine may have induced the remission of vasculitis in one case.

Abstract
This report describes 3 cases of juvenile dermatomyositis (juvenile DM) complicated by cholestasis. All 3 patients had typical features of juvenile DM, and all developed a cholestatic syndrome within the initial months of their disease. Liver biopsy revealed mixed (cytoplasmic and ductal) cholestasis with no abnormalities in the intrahepatic ducts in all 3 cases. Cholestasis improved or was completely reversible upon treatment with prednisone. In the 2 patients who could be followed up long term, no sequelae remained. The possible role of inflammation in the pathogenesis of cholestasis in juvenile DM is discussed.
