Title: Systemic Lupus Erythematosus – Clinical Poster II: Biomarkers and Outcomes

Session Type: ACR Poster Session B

Session Time: 9:00AM-11:00AM

Background/Purpose: Remission & Low Disease activity state (LDAS) are the two new health outcome measures developed with “treat to target” strategy in mind for Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). Lupus Impact Tracker (LIT), a ten item unidimensional patient reported tool has good psychometric properties and responsiveness to patient reported changes in health, physician based disease activity (DA) & composite response Index (SRI). Herein we report responsiveness of LIT to changes in LDAS & remission status among SLE patients from the largest European SLE registry- cohort.

Methods: One year longitudinal, observational, multi-center data from 1,364 adult patients with SLE meeting 1997 ACR criteria were obtained from baseline (B) and year 1 visit (Y1). This included demographics, patient reported tools (LIT), SLE (activity-SLEDAI) and medications. Remission off therapy was defined as SLEDAI=0 without prednisone or Immunosuppressive/s. Remission on-therapy was SLEDAI=0 & a prednisone dose ≤5mg/day and/or Immunosuppressive/s (maintenance dose). LDAS (modified) was defined as SLEDAI ≤4, prednisone dose ≤9mg/day and/or maintenance immunosuppressive/s. Non-optimal (NO) disease status was SLEDAI >4 and/or prednisone dose >9mg/day and/or immunosuppressive/s in induction dose. Use of hydroxychloroquine was permitted in all groups. LIT values were compared between groups with various disease activity using mixed models & both visits data. Due to relatively less number of observations in remission on and off therapy groups, both were combined into one remission group for responsiveness analysis. Latter was calculated by standard response means (SRM) in groups with a change of DA (NO was referent category). Due to relatively less number of observations in remission on and off therapy groups, both were combined into one remission group for responsiveness to change analysis.

Results:

1232/1364 (90%) were women, and 95% were Caucasian. Mean (SD) SLEDAI and SDI were 2.6 (3.5) and 0.7 (1.1) respectively. Distribution for each group is shown in Table 1 a. LIT scores were significantly lower among those in combined Remission (lower by average 9.4, SE 1.4, p<0.001) and LDAS (lower by average 6.2, SE 1.2, p <0.001) when compared with “non-optimal” activity group (Mean 34.0, SE 1.0).

LIT showed significant small to moderate responsiveness in the appropriate direction with improvement and worsening in disease activity status over time (Table 1 b). Mean changes to and from “LDAS” to “non-optimal” activity state ranged from 2-3.5, while they ranged from 5-8 for to and from “Remission” to “non-optimal” activity state.

Conclusion:

Lupus Impact Tracker is able to differentiate between remission off and on treatment, LDAS and non-optimal disease activity state. LIT shows responsiveness to change in disease activity state over time, in the appropriate direction among Spanish SLE patients enrolled in the largest observational, European SLE registry.

All abstracts accepted to ACR Convergence are under media embargo once the ACR has notified presenters of their abstract’s acceptance. They may be presented at other meetings or published as manuscripts after this time but should not be discussed in non-scholarly venues or outlets. The following embargo policies are strictly enforced by the ACR.

Accepted abstracts are made available to the public online in advance of the meeting and are published in a special online supplement of our scientific journal, Arthritis & Rheumatology. Information contained in those abstracts may not be released until the abstracts appear online. In an exception to the media embargo, academic institutions, private organizations, and companies with products whose value may be influenced by information contained in an abstract may issue a press release to coincide with the availability of an ACR abstract on the ACR website. However, the ACR continues to require that information that goes beyond that contained in the abstract (e.g., discussion of the abstract done as part of editorial news coverage) is under media embargo until 10:00 AM ET on November 14, 2024. Journalists with access to embargoed information cannot release articles or editorial news coverage before this time. Editorial news coverage is considered original articles/videos developed by employed journalists to report facts, commentary, and subject matter expert quotes in a narrative form using a variety of sources (e.g., research, announcements, press releases, events, etc.).

Violation of this policy may result in the abstract being withdrawn from the meeting and other measures deemed appropriate. Authors are responsible for notifying colleagues, institutions, communications firms, and all other stakeholders related to the development or promotion of the abstract about this policy. If you have questions about the ACR abstract embargo policy, please contact ACR abstracts staff at [email protected].
