- Chronic arthritis in systemic lupus erythematosus: distinct features in 336 paediatric and 1830 adult patients(2016) GORMEZANO, Natali W. S.; SILVA, Clovis A.; AIKAWA, Nadia E.; BARROS, Diego L.; SILVA, Mariana A. da; OTSUZI, Carini I.; KOZU, Katia; SEGURO, Luciana Parente; PEREIRA, Rosa M. R.; BONFA, EloisaThe objectives of this study are to assess the frequency of chronic arthritis and compare the clinical and laboratory features in a large population of childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (cSLE) and adult-onset (aSLE) patients. This historical study evaluated 336 cSLE and 1830 aSLE patients. Chronic arthritis was defined as synovitis of at least 6 weeks of duration. Rhupus was characterised as the association of SLE and chronic inflammatory arthritis with erosion and positive rheumatoid factor. Jaccoud's arthropathy is a non-erosive subluxation leading to severe deformity of the hands and feet. Data were compared using Student's t test or the Mann-Whitney test for continuous variables. For categorical variables, differences were assessed by Fisher's exact test and Pearson chi-square. Frequencies of chronic arthritis were similar in cSLE and aSLE (2.4 vs. 3.8 %, p=0.261). The median time from disease onset to appearance of chronic arthritis was shorter in cSLE (0 vs. 10 years, p<0.001), and the median of age at chronic arthritis diagnosis was [10.8 (4.2-14.6) vs. 40 (21-67), p<0.001]. The children presented with more chronic polyarthritis than the adults (75 vs. 32 %, p=0.024), a higher median number of joints with arthritis [8.5 (118) vs. 3 (1-9), p=0.017] and a higher number of joints with limitation [1.5(0-24) vs. 0(0-4), p=0.004]. The chronic arthritis diagnosis frequencies of hepatomegaly (25 vs. 0 %, p=0.009), splenomegaly (25 vs. 0 %, p=0.009), pericarditis (25 vs. 0 %, p=0.009), nephritis (37 vs. 3 %, p=0.006), haematuria (37 vs. 1.4 %, p=0.002), lupus anticoagulant (40 vs. 1.6 %, p=0.012), anticardiolipin IgM (40 vs. 1.5 %, p=0.012) and median Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index 2000 (SLEDAI-2K) [10.5(1-20) vs. 6(4-16), p=0.029] were higher in cSLE. Frequency of rhupus, (12 vs. 17 %, p=1.0), Jaccoud's arthropathy (0 vs. 17 %, p=0.343) and treatments were similar in cSLE and aSLE. We determined that chronic arthritis in SLE has distinct features in children, with very early onset, polyarticular involvement and association with active disease. We further demonstrated in this series that a proportion of chronic arthritis involvement in SLE is manifested as rhupus and Jaccoud's arthropathy.
- Short-term Accrual 2019 European League Against Rheumatism/American College of Rheumatology Domains and Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics/American College of Rheumatology Damage in Lupus Patients With and Without Nephritis at Disease Onset(2023) MUNHOZ, Gabriela A.; AIKAWA, Nadia E.; SILVA, Clovis A.; PASOTO, Sandra G.; PEDROSA, Tatiana N.; SEGURO, Luciana P. C.; BONFA, Eloisa; BORBA, Eduardo F.ObjectiveTo determine in a historical inception cohort the impact of lupus nephritis at disease onset in short-term accrual 2019 European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR)/American College of Rheumatology (ACR) domains. The possible association with treatment and damage was also investigated.MethodsOne hundred thirty-three consecutive adult systemic lupus erythematosus patients according to the 2019 EULAR/ACR criteria were divided according to the presence (RENAL-lupus) or absence of renal involvement (NONRENAL-lupus) at disease onset. The 2019 EULAR/ACR score and Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics/ACR (SDI) were longitudinally evaluated over 3 years.ResultsRENAL-lupus (n = 49 [36.8%]) and NONRENAL-lupus (n = 84 [63.2%]) were similar regarding age (p = 0.704), female sex (p = 0.313), and black race (p = 0.506). At study entry, RENAL-lupus had higher 2019 EULAR/ACR total domains (30 [12-42] vs. 22 [10-36], p < 0.001) and used more often glucocorticoid (p < 0.001), mycophenolate mofetil (p = 0.007), and cyclophosphamide (p = 0.001). After 3 years, a stable number of domain scores was observed for the RENAL-lupus (30 [12-42] vs. 30 [12-42], p = 0.125), whereas an increase was observed for the NONRENAL-lupus (22 [10-36] vs. 23 [10-40], p < 0.001) compared with baseline. Accordingly, RENAL-lupus patients had a lower frequency of additional domains (3/49 [6.1%] vs. 37/84 [44.0%], p < 0.0001). New kidney involvement occurred in 15 (44.1%) of 34 patients of the NONRENAL-lupus. Both groups evolved with a comparable increase in frequency of patients with damage (SDI >= 1) at the end of the study (23/49 [46.9%] vs. 34/89 [40.54%], p = 0.585) with a similar median of SDI (1 [0-4] vs. 0 [0-2], p = 0.132).ConclusionsThe distinct pattern of accrual 2019 EULAR/ACR domains in patients with and without nephritis at disease onset suggests that close surveillance for additional organ involvement, including kidney, is mandatory in NONRENAL lupus in the first 3 years of disease. The unexpected comparable early damage in both groups despite milder disease and less intense immunosuppression in NONRENAL lupus reinforces the need for new and tailored therapies for these patients.

R.- Immunogenicity and safety of two doses of the CoronaVac SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in SARS-CoV-2 seropositive and seronegative patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases in Brazil: a subgroup analysis of a phase 4 prospective study(2022) AIKAWA, Nadia E.; KUPA, Leonard V. K.; PASOTO, Sandra G.; MEDEIROS-RIBEIRO, Ana C.; YUKI, Emily F. N.; SAAD, Carla G. S.; PEDROSA, Tatiana; FULLER, Ricardo; SHINJO, Samuel K.; SAMPAIO-BARROS, Percival D.; ANDRADE, Danieli C. O.; PEREIRA, Rosa M. R.; SEGURO, Luciana P. C.; VALIM, Juliana M. L.; WARIDEL, Filipe; SARTORI, Ana Marli C.; DUARTE, Alberto J. S.; ANTONANGELO, Leila; SABINO, Ester C.; MENEZES, Paulo Rossi; KALLAS, Esper G.; SILVA, Clovis A.; BONFA, EloisaBackground We aimed to examine the immunogenicity pattern induced by the inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine CoronaVac (Sinovac Life Sciences, Beijing, China) in SARS-CoV-2 seropositive patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases compared with seropositive controls, seronegative patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases, and seronegative controls. Methods CoronavRheum is an ongoing, prospective, controlled, phase 4 study, in which patients aged 18 years or older with autoimmune rheumatic diseases, and healthy controls were recruited from a single site (Rheumatology Division of Hospital das Clinicas, Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de Sao Paulo) in Sao Paulo, Brazil Participants were vaccinated with two doses of CoronaVac (intramuscular injection, 3 mu g in 0middot5 mL of beta-propiolactone inactivated SARSCoV-2) on day 0 and on day 28. Blood samples were taken pre-vaccination on day 0, day 28, and also on day 69. For this subgroup analysis, participants were defined as being SARS-CoV-2 seropositive or seronegative prevaccination via anti-SARS-CoV-2 spike (S)1 or S2 IgG (cutoff of 15middot0 arbitrary units [AU] per mL) or neutralising antibody titres (cutoff of >= 30%) and were matched for age and sex, via convenience sampling, in a 1:3:1:1 ratio (seropositive patients to seronegative patients to seropositive controls to seronegative controls). The primary outcomes were rates of anti-SARSCoV-2 S1 and S2 IgG seropositivity and SARS-CoV-2 neutralising antibody positivity at day 28 and day 69 and immunogenicity dynamics assessed by geometric mean titres (GMTs) of IgG and median neutralising activity in seropositive patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases compared with seronegative patients and seropositive and seronegative controls. We assessed safety in all participants randomly selected for this subgroup analysis. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04754698, and is ongoing for long-term immunogenicity evaluation. Findings Between Feb 4 and Feb 8, 2021, 1418 patients and 542 controls were recruited, of whom 1685 received two vaccinations (1193 patients and 492 controls). After random sampling, our immunogenicity analysis population comprised 942 participants, of whom 157 were SARS-CoV-2 seropositive patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases, 157 were seropositive controls, 471 were seronegative patients, and 157 were seronegative controls; the median age was 48 years (IQR 38-56) and 594 (63%) were female and 348 (37%) were male. For seropositive patients and controls, an increase in anti-SARS-CoV-2 S1 and S2 IgG titres (seropositive patients GMT 52middot3 [95% CI 42middot9-63middot9] at day 0 vs 128middot9 [105middot6-157middot4] at day 28; seropositive controls 53middot3 [45middot4-62middot5] at day 0 vs 202middot0 [174middot8-233middot4] at day 28) and neutralising antibody activity (seropositive patients 59% [IQR 39-83] at day 0 vs 82% [54-96] at day 28; seropositive controls 58% [41-79] at day 0 vs 92% [79-96] at day 28), was observed from day 0 to day 28, without further increases from day 28 to day 69 (at day 69 seropositive patients' GMT was 137middot1 [116middot2-161middot9] and neutralising antibody activity was 79% [57-94]); and seropositive controls' GMT was 188middot6 [167middot4-212middot6] and neutralising antibody activity was 92% [75-96]). By contrast, for seronegative patients and controls, the second dose was required for maximum response at day 69, which was lower in seronegative patients than in seronegative controls. GMTs in seronegative patients were 2middot3 (95% CI 2middot2-2middot3) at day 0, 5middot7 (5middot1-6middot4) at day 28, and 29middot6 (26middot4-33middot3) at day 69, and in seronegative controls were 2middot3 (2middot1-2middot5) at day 0, 10middot6 (8middot7-13middot1) at day 28, and 71middot7 (63middot5-81middot0) at day 69; neutralising antibody activity in seronegative patients was 15% (IQR 15-15) on day 0, 15% (15-15) at day 28, and 39% (15-65) at day 69, and in seronegative controls was 15% (15-15) at day 0, 24% (15-37) at day 28, and 61% (37-79) at day 69. Neither seronegative patients nor seronegative controls reached the GMT or antibody activity levels of seropositive patients at day 69. Interpretation By contrast with seronegative patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases, seropositive patients have a robust response after a single dose of CoronaVac. Our findings raise the possibility that the reduced immunogenicity observed in seronegative patients might not be the optimum response potential to SARS-CoV-2 vaccination, and therefore emphasise the importance of at least a single booster vaccination in these patients.
- Immunogenicity decay and case incidence six months post Sinovac-CoronaVac vaccine in autoimmune rheumatic diseases patients(2022) SILVA, Clovis A.; MEDEIROS-RIBEIRO, Ana C.; KUPA, Leonard V. K.; YUKI, Emily F. N.; PASOTO, Sandra G.; SAAD, Carla G. S.; FUSCO, Solange R. G.; PEREIRA, Rosa M. R.; SHINJO, Samuel K.; HALPERN, Ari S. R.; BORBA, Eduardo F.; SOUZA, Fernando H. C.; GUEDES, Lissiane K. N.; MIOSSI, Renata; BONFIGLIOLI, Karina R.; DOMICIANO, Diogo S.; SHIMABUCO, Andrea Y.; ANDRADE, Danieli C. O.; SEGURO, Luciana P. C.; FULLER, Ricardo; SAMPAIO-BARROS, Percival D.; ASSAD, Ana P. L.; MORAES, Julio C. B.; GOLDENSTEIN-SCHAINBERG, Claudia; GIARDINI, Henrique A. M.; SILVA, Henrique C.; MARTINS, Victor A. O.; VILLAMARIN, Lorena E. B.; NOVELLINO, Renata S.; SALES, Lucas P.; ARAUJO, Carlo S. R.; SILVA, Matheus S. R.; FILHO, Dilson M. N.; LOPES, Marta H.; DUARTE, Alberto J. S.; KALLAS, Esper G.; AIKAWA, Nadia E.; BONFA, EloisaCharacterising the response to SARS-CoV-2 post vaccination is critical in the appraisement of the induced immune response, performance and protective potential. Here the authors present data from a phase 4 clinical trial in autoimmune rheumatic disease patients 6 months post second dose of Sinovac-CoronaVac inactivated vaccine that show a marked reduction in antibody particularly in males or those under treatment with immune targeting therapies but saw no rise in COVID-19 disease. The determination of durability and vaccine-associated protection is essential for booster doses strategies, however data on the stability of SARS-CoV-2 immunity are scarce. Here we assess anti-SARS-CoV-2 immunogenicity decay and incident cases six months after the 2(nd) dose of Sinovac-CoronaVac inactivated vaccine (D210) in 828 autoimmune rheumatic diseases patients compared with 207 age/sex-balanced control individuals. The primary outcome is the presence of anti-S1/S2 SARS-CoV-2 IgG at 6 months compared to 6 weeks after 2nd vaccine dose for decay evaluation. Secondary outcomes are presence of neutralizing antibodies, percent inhibition by neutralizing, geometric mean titers and cumulative incident cases at 6 months after 2nd dose. Anti-S1/S2 IgG positivity and titers reduce to 23.8% and 38% in patients (p < 0.001) during the six-month follow up and 20% and 51% in controls (p < 0.001), respectively. Neutralizing antibodies positivity and percent inhibition declines 41% and 54% in patients (p < 0.001) and 39.7% and 47% in controls (p < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis show males (OR = 0.56;95% CI0.40-0.79), prednisone (OR = 0.56; 95% CI0.41-0.76), anti-TNF (OR = 0.66;95% CI0.45-0.96), abatacept (OR = 0.29; 95% CI0.15-0.56) and rituximab (OR = 0.32;95% CI0.11-0.90) associate with a substantial reduction in IgG response at day 210 in patients. Although cellular immunity was not assessed, a decrease of COVID-19 cases (from 27.5 to 8.1/100 person-years; p < 0.001) is observed despite the concomitant emergence and spread of the Delta variant. Altogether we show a reduction in immunity 6-months of Sinovac-CoronaVac 2nd dose, particularly in males and those under immunosuppressives therapies, without a concomitant rise in COVID-19 cases.

- Immunogenicity, safety, and antiphospholipid antibodies after SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in patients with primary antiphospholipid syndrome(2022) SIGNORELLI, Flavio; BALBI, Gustavo Guimaraes Moreira; AIKAWA, Nadia E.; SILVA, Clovis A.; KUPA, Leonard de Vinci Kanda; MEDEIROS-RIBEIRO, Ana C.; YUKI, Emily F. N.; PASOTO, Sandra G.; SAAD, Carla G. S.; BORBA, Eduardo F.; SEGURO, Luciana Parente Costa; PEDROSA, Tatiana; OLIVEIRA, Vitor Antonio de Angeli; COSTA, Ana Luisa Cerqueira de Sant'Ana; RIBEIRO, Carolina T.; SANTOS, Roseli Eliana Beseggio; ANDRADE, Danieli Castro Oliveira; BONFA, EloisaObjective Coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) has an increased risk of coagulopathy with high frequency of antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL). Recent reports of thrombosis associated with adenovirus-based vaccines raised concern that SARS-CoV-2 immunization in primary antiphospholipid syndrome (PAPS) patients may trigger clotting complications. Our objectives were to assess immunogenicity, safety, and aPL production in PAPS patients, after vaccinating with Sinovac-CoronaVac, an inactivated virus vaccine against COVID-19. Methods This prospective controlled phase-4 study of PAPS patients and a control group (CG) consisted of a two-dose Sinovac-CoronaVac (D0/D28) and blood collection before vaccination (D0), at D28 and 6 weeks after second dose (D69) for immunogenicity/aPL levels. Outcomes were seroconversion (SC) rates of anti-SARS-CoV-2 S1/S2 IgG and/or neutralizing antibodies (NAb) at D28/D69 in naive participants. Safety and aPL production were also assessed. Results We included 44 PAPS patients (31 naive) and 132 CG (108 naive) with comparable age (p=0.982) and sex (p>0.999). At D69, both groups had high and comparable SC (83.9% vs. 93.5%, p=0.092), as well as NAb positivity (77.4% vs. 78.7%, p=0.440), and NAb-activity (64.3% vs. 60.9%, p=0.689). Thrombotic events up to 6 months or other moderate/severe side effects were not observed. PAPS patients remained with stable aPL levels throughout the study at D0 vs. D28 vs. D69: anticardiolipin (aCL) IgG (p=0.058) and IgM (p=0.091); anti-beta-2 glycoprotein I (a beta 2GPI) IgG (p=0.513) and IgM (p=0.468). Conclusion We provided novel evidence that Sinovac-CoronaVac has high immunogenicity and safety profile in PAPS. Furthermore, Sinovac-CoronaVac did not trigger thrombosis nor induced changes in aPL production.
- Influenza A/H1N1 vaccination of patients with SLE: can antimalarial drugs restore diminished response under immunosuppressive therapy?(2012) BORBA, Eduardo F.; SAAD, Carla G. S.; PASOTO, Sandra G.; CALICH, Ana L. G.; AIKAWA, Nadia E.; RIBEIRO, Ana C. M.; MORAES, Julio C. B.; LEON, Elaine P.; COSTA, Luciana P.; GUEDES, Lissiane K. N.; SILVA, Clovis A. A.; GONCALVES, Celio R.; FULLER, Ricardo; OLIVEIRA, Suzimara A.; ISHIDA, Maria A.; PRECIOSO, Alexander R.; BONFA, EloisaObjective. To assess the efficacy and safety of pandemic 2009 influenza A (H1N1) in SLE under different therapeutic regimens. Methods. A total of 555 SLE patients and 170 healthy controls were vaccinated with a single dose of a non-adjuvanted preparation. According to current therapy, patients were initially classified as SLE No Therapy (n = 75) and SLE with Therapy (n = 480). Subsequent evaluations included groups under monotherapy: chloroquine (CQ) (n = 105), prednisone (PRED) epsilon 20 mg (n = 76), immunosuppressor (IS) (n = 95) and those with a combination of these drugs. Anti-H1N1 titres and seroconversion (SC) rate were evaluated at entry and 21 days post-vaccination. Results. The SLE with Therapy group had lower SC compared with healthy controls (59.0 vs 80.0%; P < 0.0001), whereas the SLE No Therapy group had equivalent SC (72 vs 80.0%; P = 0.18) compared with healthy controls. Further comparison revealed that the SC of SLE No Therapy (72%) was similar to the CQ group (69.5%; P = 0.75), but it was significantly reduced in PRED epsilon 20 mg (53.9%; P = 0.028), IS (55.7%; P = 0.035) and PRED epsilon 20 mg + IS (45.4%; P = 0.038). The concomitant use of CQ in each of these later regimens was associated with SC responses comparable with SLE No Therapy group (72%): PRED epsilon 20 mg + CQ (71.4%; P = 1.00), IS + CQ (65.2%; P = 0.54) and PRED epsilon 20 mg + IS + CQ (57.4%; P = 0.09). Conclusion. Pandemic influenza A H1N1/2009 vaccine response is diminished in SLE under immunosuppressive therapy and antimalarials seems to restore this immunogenicity.

C.; PEDROSA, Tatiana; KALLAS, Esper G.; AIKAWA, Nadia E.; BONFA, EloisaObjective To date, the only study that has assessed the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2 mRNA) vaccine in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) observed a moderate response, but the sample size precluded an accurate analysis of the effect of individual drugs. Therefore, we evaluated the immunogenicity of an inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine (Sinovac-CoronaVac) and the influence of different medications in SLE. Safety was also assessed. Methods We conducted a prospective controlled study of 232 SARS-CoV-2-naive SLE patients and 58 SARS-CoV-2-naive controls who were vaccinated with 2 doses of Sinovac-CoronaVac with a 28-day interval (day 0/day 28 [D0/D28]). Immunogenicity analysis at D0/D28 and D69 included anti-SARS-CoV-2 S1/S2 IgG seroconversion (SC) and neutralizing antibodies (NAb) positivity. The influence of individual drugs on immune response and safety was assessed. Results Patients and controls were well balanced for age (P = 0.771). At D69, SLE patients showed a moderate SC (70.2% versus 98.1%; P < 0.001) and moderate frequency of NAb positivity (61.5% versus 84.6%; P = 0.002), although both frequencies were lower than in controls. Factors associated with lower SC in univariate analysis at D69 were prednisone use (odds ratio [OR] 0.215 [95% confidence interval (95% CI) 0.108-0.427], P < 0.001) and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) use (OR 0.201 [95% CI 0.107-0.378], P < 0.001), whereas hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) use led to a 2.5 increase in SC (P = 0.011). SLE patients who were receiving HCQ monotherapy had similar SC to controls at D69 (100% versus 98.1%; P = 1.000). In multivariate analysis, prednisone and MMF use were independently associated with lower SC (P < 0.001) and NAb positivity (P < 0.001). Safety analysis revealed no moderate/severe adverse events. Conclusion Sinovac-CoronaVac has a moderate immunogenicity in SARS-CoV-2-naive SLE patients with an excellent safety profile. We further demonstrate that HCQ may improve SC, whereas prednisone and MMF had a major deleterious effect in vaccine response, reinforcing the need to investigate the role of temporary MMF withdrawal or a vaccine-booster dose ( identifier: NCT04754698).
