Autoantibodies versus Skin Fibrosis Extent in Systemic Sclerosis : A Case-Control Study of Inverted Phenotypes

Objective: to describe the prevalences, characteristics, and survivals of patients with anti-topoisomerase 1 antibodies (ATA) and limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis (lSSc) and anti-centromere antibodies (ACA) and diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis (dSSc). Methods: patients with ATA lSSc or with ACA dSSc were included in a case-control retrospective study. Results: In our cohort of scleroderma, the prevalence of ACA dSSc and ATA lSSc was 1.1% (12/1040) and 8.9% (93/1040), respectively. ACA dSSc patients had less interstitial lung disease (ILD) (5 (41.7) vs. 74 (79.6); p < 0.01), more cardiac involvement, and more muscle involvement (3 (25) vs. 4 (4.3); p = 0.03 and 4 (33.3) vs. 4 (7.5); p = 0.02,) than ATA dSSc patients. ATA lSSc patients had a higher modified Rodnan skin score than ACA lSSc patients (4 [2−7.5] vs. 2 [0−5]; p < 0.01) and less cardiac or muscle involvement than ATA dSSc patients (6 (6.5) vs. 19 (20.4%); p < 0.01 and 15 (16.1) vs. 54 (58.1); p < 0.0001, respectively). The cumulative 5-year survival rate was 71% in ACA dSSc patients, 95% in ATA lSSc patients, 84% in ACA lSSc patients, and 66% in ATA dSSc patients (p < 0.0001). Conclusion: ATA lSSc and ACA dSSc have specific characteristics when compared to ATA dSSc or ACA lSSc. ATA lSSc patients have more ILD than ACA lSSc patients, and ATA dSSc patients have the worst prognosis. Overall, inverted phenotypes show the value of a patient assessment combining antibody and skin subset and should be considered as a separate group.
