POS0062 A RISK SCORE TO DETECT SUBCLINICAL RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS-ASSOCIATED INTERSTITIAL LUNG DISEASE

Abstract

BackgroundDespite a high morbi-mortality rate, there are no definite strategy for subclinical interstitial lung disease (ILD) screening in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).ObjectivesOur objectives were: 1. to identify risk factors for subclinical RA-ILD in a prospective discovery cohort (ESPOIR) 2.to develop a risk score for subclinical RA-ILD and 3. to validate the risk score in an independent replication cohort (TRANSLATE 2).MethodsPatients without pulmonary symptoms from 2 prospective RA cohorts who underwent chest HRCT scans were included. All patients were genotyped for MUC5B rs35705950. A risk score based on independent risk factors for subclinical RA-ILD was developed using multiple logistic regression in the discovery cohort. The risk score was tested for validation in the replication cohort.ResultsDiscovery and replication cohorts included 163 and 89 patients, respectively. Subclinical ILD was detected in 19.0% and 16.9% of the patients, respectively. In the discovery cohort, independent risk factors for subclinical RA-ILD were the MUC5B rs35705950 T risk allele (odds ratio [OR]=3.74; 95% confidence interval [CI] [1.37–10.39], male sex (OR=3.93; 95%CI [1.40–11.39]), older age at RA onset (for each year, OR=1.10; 95%CI [1.04–1.16]) and increased mean DAS28-ESR (for each unit, OR=2.03; 95%CI [1.24–3.42]). We developed a risk score for subclinical RA-ILD with AUC=0.82; 95%CI [0.70–0.94] (sensitivity (Se)=71.0%) and specificity (Sp)=79.6%). The risk score was validated in the replication cohort with AUC=0.78; 95%CI [0.65–0.92] (Se=86.7%, Sp=62.2%).ConclusionOur risk score could help identifying patients at high-risk for subclinical RA-ILD before the onset of pulmonary symptoms.Disclosure of InterestsPierre-Antoine Juge Speakers bureau: AstraZeneca, Boehringer Ingelheim, Bristol Myers Squibb, Consultant of: Bristol Myers Squibb, Benjamin Granger: None declared, Marie-Pierre Debray: None declared, Esther Ebstein: None declared, Fabienne Louis-Sidney: None declared, Joanna KEDRA: None declared, Tracy Doyle: None declared, Raphael Borie: None declared, Arnaud Constantin Consultant of: Abbvie, Amgen, Biogen, BMS, Boehringer Ingelheim, Fresenius Kabi, Galapagos, Janssen, Lilly, Medac, MSD, Mylan, Novartis, Pfizer, Procter & Gamble, Roche, Sanofi, UCB, Viatris, Bernard Combe Consultant of: AbbVie, BMS, Eli-Lilly, Gilead, Janssen, Merck, Novartis, Pfizer, Roche-Chugai, Sanofi, UCB, René-Marc Flipo Consultant of: Abbvie, Janssen, MSD and Pfizer.
