Popis: BackgroundLupus nephritis (LN) is a frequent complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Severe (proliferative) forms of LN are treated with an induction immunosuppressive therapy (IST), followed by a maintenance IST, to target remission and avoid relapses. The optimal duration of maintenance IST for proliferative LN is unknown.ObjectivesThe WIN-Lupus trial tested whether IST discontinuation after 2-3 years in proliferative LN was non-inferior to IST continuation for 2 more years.MethodsWIN-Lupus is an investigator-initiated academic randomized controlled trial, conducted in 28 French centers. Patients on maintenance IST with azathioprine or mycophenolate mofetil for a minimum of 2 years and a maximum of 3 years, and who were taking Hydroxychloroquine, were randomized (1:1) between 2 groups: IST continuation and IST discontinuation. The primary endpoint was the relapse rate of proliferative LN at 24 months. Secondary endpoints were the rate of severe SLE flares, survival without renal relapse or severe flare, adverse events, kidney function, disease activity, corticosteroid exposure, patient-reported outcome and medico-economic impact.ResultsBetween 2011 and 2016, 125 patients were screened and 96 were randomized in the trial: 48 in the IST continuation group, 48 in the IST discontinuation group. In the per-protocol population, a relapse of proliferative LN occurred in 5/40 (10.4%) patients with IST continuation, and in 12/44 (25%) patients with IST discontinuation (difference 14.8%, 95%CI [-1.9; 31.5]). Non-inferiority was not demonstrated for relapse rate. Time to renal relapse did not differ between groups (p=0.092). Severe SLE flares (renal or extra-renal) were less frequent in patients with IST continuation compared to IST discontinuation (5/40 vs 14/44 patients, p=0.035). IST discontinuation was associated with lower health-related costs. Adverse events did not differ between groups.ConclusionNon-inferiority of maintenance IST discontinuation after 2 to 3 years was not demonstrated for renal relapse. IST discontinuation was associated with a higher risk of severe SLE flare.References[1]Moroni G et al. When and how is it possible to stop therapy in patients with lupus nephritis?
