- Influenza A/Singapore (H3N2) component vaccine in systemic lupus erythematosus: A distinct pattern of immunogenicity(2021) FORMIGA, Francisco Fellipe Claudino; SILVA, Clovis Artur; PEDROSA, Tatiana do Nascimento; AIKAWA, Nadia Emi; PASOTO, Sandra Gofinet; GARCIA, Cristiana Couto; CAPAO, Artur Silva Vidal; MARTINS, Victor Adriano de Oliveira; PROENCA, Adriana Coracini Tonacio de; FULLER, Ricardo; YUKI, Emily Figueiredo Neves; VENDRAMINI, Margarete Borges Galhardo; ROSARIO, Debora Cordeiro do; BRANDAO, Leticia Maria Kolachinski Raposo; SARTORI, Ana Marli Christovam; ANTONANGELO, Leila; BONFA, Eloisa; BORBA, Eduardo FerreiraIntroduction Influenza A (H3N2) virus is the most important cause of seasonal influenza morbidity and mortality in the last 50 years, surpassing the impact of H1N1. Data assessing immunogenicity and safety of this virus component are lacking in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and restricted to small reports with other H3N2 strains. Objective This study aims to evaluate short-term immunogenicity and safety of influenza A/Singapore (H3N2) vaccine in SLE. Methods 81 consecutive SLE patients and 81 age- and sex-matched healthy controls (HC) were vaccinated with the influenza A/Singapore/INFIMH-16-0019/2016(H3N2)-like virus. Seroprotection (SP) and seroconversion (SC) rates, geometric mean titers(GMT), and factor increase in GMT(FI-GMT) and adverse events were assessed before and 4 weeks post-vaccination. Disease activity and therapies were also evaluated. Results Before immunization, SLE and HC groups had high SP rates (89% vs 77%, p = 0.061) and elevated GMT titer with higher levels in SLE (129.1(104.1-154.1) vs 54.8(45.0-64.6), p < 0.001). Frequency of two previous years' influenza vaccination was high and comparable in SLE and HC (89% vs 90%, p = 1.000). Four weeks post-vaccination, median GMT increased for both groups and remained higher in SLE compared to HC (239.9(189.5-290.4) vs 94.5(72.6-116.4), p < 0.0001) with a comparable FI-GMT (2.3(1.8-2.9) vs 1.9(1.5-2.3), p = 0.051). SC rates were low and comparable for both groups (16% vs 11%, respectively, p = 0.974). Disease activity scores remained stable throughout the study (p = 1.000) and severe adverse events were not identified. Conclusion Influenza A/Singapore (H3N2) vaccine has an adequate safety profile. The distinct immunogenicity pattern from other influenza A components characterized by a remarkably high pre- and post-vaccination SP rate and high GMT levels may be associated with previous influenza A vaccination.

- Immunogenicity and safety of primary fractional-dose yellow fever vaccine in autoimmune rheumatic diseases(2021) TONACIO, Adriana Coracini; PEDROSA, Tatiana do Nascimento; BORBA, Eduardo Ferreira; AIKAWA, Nadia Emi; PASOTO, Sandra Gofinet; FERREIRA FILHO, Julio Cesar Rente; BARROS, Marilia Mantovani Sampaio; LEON, Elaine Pires; LOMBARDI, Suzete Cleusa Ferreira Spina; MENDRONE JUNIOR, Alfredo; AZEVEDO, Adriana de Souza; SCHWARCZ, Waleska Dias; FULLER, Ricardo; YUKI, Emily Figueiredo Neves; LOPES, Michelle Remiao Ugolini; PEREIRA, Rosa Maria Rodrigues; BARROS, Percival Degrava Sampaio; ANDRADE, Danieli Castro Oliveira de; MEDEIROS-RIBEIRO, Ana Cristina de; MORAES, Julio Cesar Bertacini de; SHINJO, Samuel Katsuyuki; MIOSSI, Renata; DUARTE, Alberto Jose da Silva; LOPES, Marta Heloisa; KALLAS, Esper Georges; SILVA, Clovis Artur Almeida da; BONFA, EloisaBackground Brazil faced a yellow fever(YF) outbreak in 2016-2018 and vaccination was considered for autoimmune rheumatic disease patients(ARD) with low immunosuppression due to YF high mortality. Objective This study aimed to evaluate, prospectively for the first time, the short-term immunogenicity of the fractional YF vaccine(YFV) immunization in ARD patients with low immunossupression. Methods and Results A total of 318 participants(159 ARD and 159 age- and sex-matched healthy controls) were vaccinated with the fractional-dose(one fifth) of 17DD-YFV. All subjects were evaluated at entry(D0), D5, D10, and D30 post-vaccination for clinical/laboratory and disease activity parameters for ARD patients. Post-vaccination seroconversion rate(83.7%vs.96.6%, p = 0.0006) and geometric mean titers(GMT) of neutralizing antibodies[1143.7 (95%CI 1012.3-1292.2) vs.731 (95%CI 593.6-900.2), p< 0.001] were significantly lower in ARD compared to controls. A lower positivity rate of viremia was also identified for ARD patients compared to controls at D5 (53%vs.70%, p = 0.005) and the levels persisted in D10 for patients and reduced for controls(51%vs.19%, p = 0.0001). The viremia was the only variable associated with seroconvertion. No serious adverse events were reported. ARD disease activity parameters remained stable at D30(p>0.05). Conclusion Fractional-dose 17DD-YF vaccine in ARD patients resulted in a high rate of seroconversion rate(> 80%) but lower than controls, with a longer but less intense viremia. This vaccine was immunogenic, safe and did not induce flares in ARD under low immunosuppression and may be indicated in YF outbreak situations and for patients who live or travel to endemic areas.
- Hydroxychloroquine blood levels in stable lupus nephritis under low dose (2-3 mg/kg/day): 12-month prospective randomized controlled trial(2021) ZANETTI, Caio B.; PEDROSA, Tatiana; KUPA, Leonard de V. K.; AIKAWA, Nadia E.; BORBA, Eduardo F.; VENDRAMINI, Margarete B. G.; SILVA, Clovis A.; PASOTO, Sandra G.; BONFA, EloisaIntroduction The American Academy of Ophthalmology (2016-AAO) recommended hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) dose not to exceed 5 mg/kg/day (real body weight). Recently, it was reported that prescribed 2016-AAO dose provided adequate HCQ levels for most lupus nephritis (LN) patients, with low flare risk. However, the minimum HCQ dose required to keep adequate levels is unknown. Objectives To evaluate if a further reduction in 2016-AAO dose (2-3 mg/kg/day) would sustain 12-month HCQ levels in LN patients with stable inactive disease. Methods Seventy-three stable LN patients under prescribed full HCQ 2016-AAO dose for >= 6 months and adequate baseline HCQ levels (>= 613.5 ng/mL) were divided in two groups: reduced 2016-AAO dose (2-3 mg/kg/day), n = 32, and full 2016-AAO dose (5 mg/kg/day), n = 41. All patients were assessed at baseline, 3, 6, and 12 months. HCQ levels were measured by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Flare was defined as augment >= 3 in SLE Disease Activity Index-2000 and/or change in treatment. Rigorous clinical/laboratorial surveillance was performed. Results Prospective evaluation revealed for reduced 2016-AAO dose group a decrease of HCQ levels from baseline to 3 months (1,404.9 +/- 492.0 vs. 731.6 +/- 385.0 ng/mL, p < 0.01), and sustained levels at 6 months (p = 0.273) and 12 months (p = 0.091) compared to 3 months. For the full 2016-AAO dose group, a decrease occurred only from baseline to 12 months (1343.5 +/- 521.5 vs. 991.6 +/- 576.3 ng/mL, p < 0.001). Frequencies of patients with inadequate levels at 6 months was higher in reduced 2016-AAO group than full 2016-AAO dose (59% vs. 24%, p = 0.005), as well as at 12 months (66% vs. 32%, p = 0.002). Six-month and 12-month flare frequencies were comparable for both groups (p > 0.05). Conclusions Prescribed HCQ low-dose regimen (2-3 mg/kg/day) does not sustain, for most patients, 6- and 12-month adequate HCQ levels. Full 2016-AAO dose maintained HCQ levels way above this limit.

bookPart Lúpus eritematoso sistêmico(2021) BORBA NETO, Eduardo Ferreira; SEGURO, Luciana Parente Costa; LOPES, Michelle Remião Ugolini; GONçALVES, Célio Roberto; BONFá, Eloisa- SARS-CoV-2 infection, gut dysbiosis, and heterogeneous clinical results of hydroxychloroquine on COVID-19 therapy & mdash;Is there a link?(2021) BALMANT, Bianca D.; TORRINHAS, Raquel S.; ROCHA, Ilanna M.; FONSECA, Danielle C.; FORMIGA, Francisco F. C.; BONFA, Eloisa S. D. O.; BORBA, Eduardo F.; WAITZBERG, Dan L.Clinical manifestations of the new severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection can include gastrointestinal signals and symptoms. Individuals with previous clinical conditions that usually enroll gut dysbiosis have been identified as being at high risk to develop more severe infectious phenotypes. Actually, intestinal dysbiosis has been observed in infected patients and potentially linked to systemic hyper-inflammation. These observations suggest that a previous gut dysbiosis may be aggravated by SARS-CoV-2 infection and related to progression of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) into more severe stages. While COVID-19 & rsquo;s pathophysiology is not fully understood, it seems relevant to consider the interactions of candidate therapeutic drugs with the host, gut microbiota, and SARS-CoV-2. Here we summarize scientific evidence supporting the potential relevance of these interactions and suggest that unfavorable clinical data on hydroxychloroquine administration in COVID-19 may have been influenced by the dose provided and its impact on gut dysbiosis. The proposition is based on preliminary data on gut microbiota composition from individuals with inactive systemic lupus erythematosus under exclusive continuous hydroxychloroquine treatment, displaying a direct correlation between drug doses and markers typically associated with gut dys-biosis.
- The influence of obesity on hydroxychloroquine blood levels in lupus nephritis patients(2021) PEDROSA, Tatiana; KUPA, Leonard de Vinci Kanda; PASOTO, Sandra Gofinet; AIKAWA, Nadia Emi; BORBA, Eduardo Ferreira; DUARTE, Nilo J. C.; LEON, Elaine Pires; SILVA, Clovis Artur; BONFA, EloisaIntroduction In 2016 the American Academy of Ophthalmology(2016-AAO) recommended a maximum daily HCQ use of 5.0 mg/kg real body weight(RBW) taking into consideration minimizing eye toxicity. Retinopathy in systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE) patients was recently associated with obesity and this condition is progressively more common in these patients. However, the impact of obesity in HCQ blood levels remains controversial. Objective To determine if the 2016-AAO recommendation based on RBW with and without maximum daily dose restriction results in adequate and safe blood levels in obese lupus nephritis(LN) patients. Methods A cross-sectional study was performed with 108 LN patients under the prescribed 2016-AAO dose for at least 3 months. LN patients were assessed for demographic characteristics, body mass index(BMI), disease parameters, HCQ dose, concomitant treatment and HCQ blood levels measured by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Obesity was defined as BMI >= 30kg/m(2). Results Obesity was identified in 35/108(32%) LN patients. The calculation of HCQ daily dosage revealed that obese patients were under a lower prescribed daily dose according to the real body weight (RBW) [4.4(2.9-5.4) vs. 4.9(4-5.5)mg/Kg/day, p < 0.001] due to the maximum limit used. Regardless of that the median of HCQ blood levels was significantly higher in obese compared to non-obese patients (1562 +/- 548.6 vs. 1208 +/- 448.9 ng/mL, p = 0.002). Further analysis of patients under the 20016-AAO recommendation by RBW without the restriction of maximum daily dose confirmed that in spite of comparable daily dose in 14 obese patients and 61 non-obese patients [4.8 (4.5-5.4) vs. 5.0(4.5-5.5) mg/kg, p = 0.312], the median of HCQ blood levels was significantly higher in obese patients than in non-obese (1734 +/- 457.3 vs. 1189 +/- 449.4 ng/mL, p < 0.001). Conclusion Obese patients under the 2016-AAO prescribed dose of HCQ based on RBW with and without maximum daily dose restriction have a very high HCQ blood levels compared to non-obese patients, with a potential increased risk of ocular toxicity. The use of 2016-AAO dose of HCQ according to the ideal body weight for this group of patients should be considered.Clinicaltrials.gov #NCT0312243.
- Chronic use of hydroxychloroquine did not protect against COVID-19 in a large cohort of patients with rheumatic diseases in Brazil(2021) PILEGGI, Gecilmara Salviato; FERREIRA, Gilda Aparecida; REIS, Ana Paula Monteiro Gomides; REIS-NETO, Edgard Torres; ABREU, Mirhelen Mendes; ALBUQUERQUE, Cleandro Pires; ARAUJO, Nafice Costa; BACCHIEGA, Ana Beatriz; BIANCHI, Dante Valdetaro; BICA, Blanca; BONFA, Eloisa Duarte; BORBA, Eduardo Ferreira; BRITO, Danielle Christinne Soares Egypto; DUARTE, Angela Luzia Branco Pinto; SANTO, Rafaela Cavalheiro Espirito; FERNANDES, Paula Reale; GUIMARAES, Mariana Peixoto; GOMES, Kirla Wagner Poti; KAKEHASI, Adriana Maria; KLUMB, Evandro Mendes; LANNA, Cristina Costa Duarte; MARQUES, Claudia Diniz Lopes; MONTICIELO, Odirlei Andre; MOTA, Licia Maria Henrique; MUNHOZ, Gabriela Araujo; PAIVA, Eduardo Santos; PEREIRA, Helena Lucia Alves; PROVENZA, Jose Roberto; RIBEIRO, Sandra Lucia Euzebio; JUNIOR, Laurindo Ferreira Rocha; SAMPAIO, Camila Santana Justo Cintra; SAMPAIO, Vanderson Souza; SATO, Emilia Inoue; SKARE, Thelma; SOUZA, Viviane Angelina de; VALIM, Valeria; LACERDA, Marcus Vinicius Guimaraes; XAVIER, Ricardo Machado; PINHEIRO, Marcelo MedeirosBackground There is a lack of information on the role of chronic use of hydroxychloroquine during the SARS-CoV-2 outbreak. Our aim was to compare the occurrence of COVID-19 between rheumatic disease patients on hydroxychloroquine with individuals from the same household not taking the drug during the first 8 weeks of community viral transmission in Brazil. Methods This baseline cross-sectional analysis is part of a 24-week observational multi-center study involving 22 Brazilian academic outpatient centers. All information regarding COVID-19 symptoms, epidemiological, clinical, and demographic data were recorded on a specific web-based platform using telephone calls from physicians and medical students. COVID-19 was defined according to the Brazilian Ministry of Health (BMH) criteria. Mann-Whitney, Chi-square and Exact Fisher tests were used for statistical analysis and two binary Final Logistic Regression Model by Wald test were developed using a backward-stepwise method for the presence of COVID-19. Results From March 29th to May 17st, 2020, a total of 10,443 participants were enrolled, including 5166 (53.9%) rheumatic disease patients, of whom 82.5% had systemic erythematosus lupus, 7.8% rheumatoid arthritis, 3.7% Sjogren's syndrome and 0.8% systemic sclerosis. In total, 1822 (19.1%) participants reported flu symptoms within the 30 days prior to enrollment, of which 3.1% fulfilled the BMH criteria, but with no significant difference between rheumatic disease patients (4.03%) and controls (3.25%). After adjustments for multiple confounders, the main risk factor significantly associated with a COVID-19 diagnosis was lung disease (OR 1.63; 95% CI 1.03-2.58); and for rheumatic disease patients were diagnosis of systemic sclerosis (OR 2.8; 95% CI 1.19-6.63) and glucocorticoids above 10 mg/ day (OR 2.05; 95% CI 1.31-3.19). In addition, a recent influenza vaccination had a protective effect (OR 0.674; 95% CI 0.46-0.98). Conclusion Patients with rheumatic disease on hydroxychloroquine presented a similar occurrence of COVID-19 to household cohabitants, suggesting a lack of any protective role against SARS-CoV-2 infection.

- Factors associated with neuropsychiatric involvement in Latin American patients with systemic lupus erythematosus(2021) BARILE-FABRIS, Leonor A.; FRAGOSO-LOYO, Hilda; WOJDYLA, Daniel; QUINTANA, Rosana; PONS-ESTEL, Guillermo J.; CATOGGIO, Luis J.; GARCIA, Mercedes A.; SAURIT, Veronica; DRENKARD, Cristina; BONFA, Eloisa; BORBA, Eduardo F.; SATO, Emilia; BRENOL, Joao C. Tavares; CAVALCANTI, Fernando; SILVA, Nilzio A. Da; COSTALLAT, Lilian T. Lavras; TOLEDANO, Marlene Guibert; MASSARDO, Loreto; NEIRA, Oscar; CARDIEL, Mario H.; AMIGO, Mary Carmen; TORRE, Ignacio Garcia De La; SILVEIRA, Luis H.; VASQUEZ, Eduardo M. Acevedo; CHACON-DIAZ, Rosa; ESTEVA-SPINETTI, Maria H.; ALARCON, Graciela S.; PONS-ESTEL, Bernardo A.Introduction Factors related to presentation of neuropsychiatric (NP) SLE manifestations, early in the course of the disease, and during follow up have not been clearly established. Purpose To identify disease and non-disease related factors associated with NP manifestations in early SLE. Methods We included 1193 patients from the GLADEL inception cohort free of NP involvement at cohort entry. We evaluated the association of demographic, clinical and laboratory data with NP involvement during follow-up. Statistical methods Independent factors associated with NP involvement were identified using a multivariable Cox regression model. Results Factors independently associated with NP manifestations were: mestizo ethnicity (HR 1.701, 95% CI 1.282-2.258, p = 0.0002), myalgias/myositis (HR 1.832, 95% CI 1.335-2.515, p = 0.0002), pneumonitis (HR 2.476, 95% CI 1.085-5.648, p = 0.0312), shrinking lung (HR 2.428, 95% CI 1.074-5.493, p = 0.0331) and hemolytic anemia (HR 1.629, 95% CI 1.130-2.347, p = 0.0089). Longer disease duration at cohort entry (13 to 24 months) was associated with a lower risk of developing NP manifestations (HR 0.642, 95% CI 0.441-0.934, p = 0.0206). Conclusions Patients with myalgias/myositis, pneumonitis, shrinking lung and hemolytic anemia are at higher risk of NP involvement, whereas longer disease duration at cohort entry is associated with a lower risk of developing NP involvement.
- Avoiding misclassification of thrombotic primary antiphospholipid syndrome as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE): What are the best-performing SLE classification criteria?(2021) SIGNORELLI, Flavio; BALBI, Gustavo Guimaraes Moreira; BONFA, Eloisa; BORBA, Eduardo F.; ANDRADE, Danieli Castro de OliveiraBackground Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and Primary Antiphospholipid Syndrome (PAPS) overlap clinical and immunological features. Therefore, misclassification of PAPS patients as SLE is a concern. The ACR/EULAR 2019 SLE classification has never been studied in PAPS. Objective To verify if the ACR/EULAR 2019 SLE classification can correctly classify a PAPS patient as not having SLE and compare its performance with the SLICC 2012 SLE classification. Methods: One-hundred thrombotic PAPS patients who fulfilled the Sidney criteria were consecutively screened and those who attended the inclusion criteria were submitted to ACR/EULAR 2019 and SLICC 2012 classifications. Results Sixty-seven PAPS patients were included in this study. The majority was female (89.6%) with median age at study inclusion of 45 years (35-53) and median PAPS disease duration of 13 years (8-19). PAPS correct classification was observed more often with ACR/EULAR 2019 than SLICC 2021 criteria (94.0% vs. 64.2%; p < 0.001). The 4 misclassified patients in ACR/EULAR 2019 were also misclassified in SLICC 2012. The comparison of misclassified patients to those correctly not classified as SLE resulted, for both criteria, in higher frequencies of hematological domain [ACR/EULAR 2019 (100% vs. 28.6%, p = 0.010) and SLICC 2012 (95.8% vs. 11.6%, p < 0.001)]. Further analysis of hematological manifestations revealed that for the ACR/EULAR 2019 leukopenia (100% vs. 22.2%, p = 0.004) and for the SLICC 2012 leukopenia/lymphopenia (91.7% vs. 7%, p < 0.001) were more frequent in misclassified group. Proteinuria (20.8% vs. 0%, p = 0.004) and low complement (45.8% vs. 20.9%, p = 0.033) were also more often observed in the incorrectly SLICC 2012 classified patients. Conclusion ACR/EULAR 2019 had high accuracy for distinguishing PAPS from SLE, whereas the SLICC 2012 incorrectly classified more than one third of the PAPS patients as having SLE.
