Study Description

Brief Summary

Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA), directed against myeloperoxidase (MPO) and against proteinase 3 (PR3), have a pathogenic role during ANCA (AAV) vasculitis. Glomerular basement membrane (MBG) antibodies also have a direct pathogenic role in Goodpasture's syndrome and anti-MBG antibody glomerulonephritis (GN). In some patients, the severity of renal and / or pulmonary involvement justifies the rapid purification of these autoantibodies by an apheresis procedure, while waiting for the effect of immunosuppressive treatments aimed at reducing their production. During vasculitis, plasma exchange (PE) is recommended in patients with severe renal impairment or intra-alveolar hemorrhage (2012 KDIGO Clinical Practice Guideline for Glomerulonephritis).

Given certain disadvantages related to plasma exchanges (low volume of purified plasma, non-selective technique for immunoglobulins (Ig), need for replacement solute, induction of coagulation disorders), immunoadsorption (IA), already used in transplantation, has been developed in these indications. IA has indeed greater selectivity for Ig with a probable better purification capacity due to higher volumes of plasma treated per session. The price of IA is however higher than that of EP.

These two apheresis techniques, EP and IA, are commonly used in France during severe forms of vasculitis ANCA or anti-MBG, without the superiority of one or the other has been demonstrated. As a result of higher plasma volumes being purified, AI may allow faster purification of pathogenic antibodies. No studies to date have specifically compared the purification kinetics of these antibodies between EP and IA.

The CINEVAS study (VAScularite Antibody Purification CINetic) is a multicentric pilot study whose main objective is to compare the purification kinetics of ANCA (anti-MPO or anti-PR3) and / or anti- MBG in patients treated with EP versus those treated with IA
