Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The objective of this study is to identify a panel of immunological molecular and cellular biomarkers able to predict the success of major dose-reduction or discontinuation of abatacept in rheumatoid arthritis patients

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase

    Detailed Description

    Parameters studied at different time points (before initiation of abatacept if sample is available in our biocollection; prior to dose tapering; prior to discontinuation) ACPA (anti-citrullinated proteins antibodies) repertoire

    -IgG (Immunoglobulins G) and/or IgA auto-antibodies repertoire directed against major epitopes of well-known autoantigens

    B cell repertoire B cell repertoire and transcriptome of regulatory B lymphocytes, memory B cells and B cells targeting specific autoantigens.

    Analysis of type I interferon signature Expression levels of 7 type I interferon (IFN) response genes will be determined to calculate on type I IFN score

    Eligibility Criteria

    Criteria

    Ages Eligible for Study:
    18 Years and Older
    Sexes Eligible for Study:
    All
    Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
    No
    Inclusion Criteria:
    • Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients (> pr = 18 years) fulfilling the 2010 ACR/EULAR criteria

    • Associated to high levels (> 3 x upper limit of normal in UA/ml) of ACPA measured by the usual anti-CCP(cyclic citrullinated proteins)2 test at the start of abatacept treatment

    • Receiving IV (intravenous) or SC (subcutaneous) abatacept alone or in combination with a conventional Disease Modyfying AntiRheumatic Drugs (cDMARD) (methotrexate, leflunomide, sulfasalasin in monotherapy or in combination) according to the usual scheme or in tapering phase

    • Without intra-articular injections of corticosteroids during the last 6 months prior to down-titration of abatacept

    • Having discontinued corticosteroids at he time of entrance in the study

    • In deep remission (Disease Activity Score (DAS) 28 ESR (or CRP) < 2.6 without clinical synovitis) since at least 1 year

    • In sonographic remission at the time of enrollment (absence of PD (Power Doppler)-positive synovitis on 28 joints defined by a score < 2 on a 0-3 semi-quantitative scale for each joint)

    Exclusion Criteria:
    • Age < 18 years

    • RA negative for ACPA (anti-citrullinated proteins antibodies) or not fulfilling ACR/EULAR criteria

    • Abatacept discontinuation due to serious adverse event, loss of efficacy or pregnancy project
