Popis: Background Early identification of patients with lupus nephritis (LN) likely to achieve complete renal response (CRR) may expedite the evaluation of new therapies and guide clinical care. Prior analyses have shown that early improvement in proteinuria is associated with subsequent renal response.1,2 Several ongoing LN trials including NOBILITY, an assessment of the efficacy of the anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody obinutuzumab in combination with standard of care immunosuppression, will evaluate proteinuric response at 6 months as a key secondary endpoint.3 Whether short-term response accurately predicts future CRR, however, is uncertain. Objectives To assess the predictive value of early measurements of the level of proteinuria and to identify proteinuria cutoffs that best identify patients who will achieve CRR at 18 months. Methods LUNAR and BELONG were multicenter, double-blinded studies that in total randomized 522 patients with ISN/RPS class III or class IV LN to blinded investigational infusions or placebo in combination with standard of care immunosuppression.4,5 CRR was assessed at 18 months and defined for this analysis as achievement of urine protein to creatinine ratio (UPCR) 25%. Bootstrapping was used to generate nonparametric receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and estimate area under the curve (AUC). The Youden index was used to identify UPCR cutoff values that maximize sensitivity and specificity. Positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) were calculated. Results ROC curves were constructed for proteinuria measurements at baseline and 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after randomization (Figure 1). AUC increased from baseline to month 3 (0.64 vs. 0.80, P 0.05 for each pairwise comparison). Achievement of 6-month UPCR Conclusions Level of proteinuria at 6 months alone was predictive of CRR at 18 months in aggregated data from two phase III LN clinical trials.
