Abstrakt: | Objectives: Fat lesions (FLs) on MRI T1 sequences are considered to be early indicators of structural spinal progression in axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) patients. In this post-hoc analysis from RAPID-axSpA, we assess whether tumour necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi) treatment over 4 years impacts FLs in spinal vertebral edges (VEs) of patients with axSpA. Methods: In RAPID-axSpA (NCT01087762), a 4-year, phase 3 randomized trial, participants were randomized to certolizumab pegol (CZP; 400 mg loading dose at Weeks 0/2/4 then 200/400 mg every 2/4 weeks) or placebo (PBO) at baseline; PBO-randomized participants switched to CZP at Week 16/24 (denoted PBO-randomized/CZP). Spinal MRI scans were taken at Weeks 0, 12, 48, 96 and 204. Changes in proportions of VEs with FLs are reported as odds ratios (ORs) between time points. Results: Overall, 136 participants (CZP: 89, PBO-randomized/CZP: 47) had a baseline and ≥1 post-baseline MRI. The OR (95% confidence interval) vs baseline of FLs was higher in PBO-randomized/CZP vs CZP-randomized participants at Weeks 48 [3.35 (2.16-5.19) vs 1.45 (1.07-1.97)], 96 [2.62 (1.77-3.88) vs 1.84 (1.36-2.48)] and 204 [2.55 (1.59-4.06) vs 1.71 (1.23-2.37)]. Across 204 weeks, FLs increased more in VEs with baseline inflammation [Week 204 OR: 4.84 (2.56-9.18)] than those without [OR: 1.15 (0.78-1.71)]. VEs in which inflammation was resolved by Week 12 had lower FL prevalence at Weeks 48, 96 and 204 compared with VEs with unresolved inflammation. Conclusions: Early and sustained suppression of inflammation mitigates the risk of long-term FL development in the spine in study participants with axSpA evaluated over 4 years.
