Anti-carbamylated protein antibodies as a clinical response predictor in rheumatoid arthritis patients treated with abatacept
OBJECTIVES: Carbamylation is an irreversible post-translational modification of proteins. The presence of anti-carbamylated protein antibodies (anti-CarP) has been observed in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This study was focused to verify whether anti-CarP antibodies can be used as a predictive factor of clinical response to abatacept (CTLA4-Ig) in RA patients.
METHODS: Sixty RA patients treated with abatacept were enrolled. A home-made ELISA for anti-CarP and a commercial anti-CCP3.1 kit for anti-citrullinated proteins antibodies (anti-CCP) were applied to determine serum levels every six months of therapy. Rheumatoid factor (RF) was also tested.
RESULTS: Anti-CarP positive patients (n=18) were younger (p=0.01) and with a longer disease duration (p=0.05) when compared to anti-CarP negative patients (n=42) at baseline. Considering the entire cohort, a significant reduction of anti-CarP titre after twelve-months of treatment was shown (p<0.01). A significant reduction of Disease Activity Score (DAS) 28-C-reactive protein (CRP) in the first six months of therapy was found in the subgroup of anti-CarP positive patients in comparison with the negative ones (p=0.003). No significant results were found by dividing the cohort using the positivity to anti-CCP and/or RF.
CONCLUSIONS: Earlier onset and a longer disease duration in anti-CarP positive patients might suggest they are specific risk factors for RA in this subgroup of patients. The correlation between the anti-CarP positivity at baseline and the reduction of disease activity during the first six months of treatment with abatacept allowed us to hypothesise that anti-CarP antibodies, but not anti-CCP and/or RF, could be used as a good clinical response predictor.
