Abstrakt: Background: Standard of care for interstitial lung disease (ILD) with a nonspecific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP) pattern proposes mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) as one of the first-step therapies while rituximab is used as rescue therapy.
Methods: In a randomised, double-blind, two-parallel group, placebo-controlled trial (NCT02990286), patients with connective tissue disease-associated ILD or idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (with or without autoimmune features) and a NSIP pattern (defined on NSIP pathological pattern or on integration of clinicobiological data and a NSIP-like high-resolution computed tomography pattern) were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive rituximab (1000 mg) or placebo on day 1 and day 15 in addition to MMF (2 g daily) for 6 months. The primary end-point was the change in percent predicted forced vital capacity (FVC) from baseline to 6 months analysed by a linear mixed model for repeated measures analysis. Secondary end-points included progression-free survival (PFS) up to 6 months and safety.
Findings: Between January 2017 and January 2019, 122 randomised patients received at least one dose of rituximab (n=63) or placebo (n=59). The least-squares mean change from baseline to 6 months in FVC (% predicted) was +1.60 (se 1.13) in the rituximab+MMF group and -2.01 (se 1.17) in the placebo+MMF group (between-group difference 3.60, 95% CI 0.41-6.80; p=0.0273). PFS was better in the rituximab+MMF group (crude hazard ratio 0.47, 95% CI 0.23-0.96; p=0.03). Serious adverse events occurred in 26 (41%) patients of the rituximab+MMF group and in 23 (39%) of the placebo+MMF group. Nine infections were reported in the rituximab+MMF group (five bacterial infections, three viral infections, one other) and four bacterial infections in the placebo+MMF group.
Interpretation: Combination of rituximab and MMF was superior to MMF alone in patients with ILD and a NSIP pattern. The use of this combination must take into consideration the risk of viral infection.
