Evaluation of Type I IFN Level and Disease Activity in SLE Patients

Conditions
Elevated Level of IFN Type I in SLE Patients
Interventions
Other: study of IFNGS expression biomarkers
Registration Number
NCT05446428
Lead Sponsor
V.A. Nasonova Research Institute of Rheumatology, Moscow
Brief Summary

Elevated level of IFN type I in SLE patients associated with certain serum biomarkers (galectin -1,-3,-9; cytokine profile - 20 plex panel - GM-CSF, IFN-γ, IL-2, -4,-5,-6,-7,-8,-10,-13,-15,-17,-18, IP-10. MCP-1, MIG, MIP-1α, MIP-1β, RANTES, TNF-α, TNF-RII, BAFF, APRIL), clinical and laboratory manifestations, activity and duration pf the disease and SLE patients quality of life. Standard immunosuppressive and anti-B-cell therapy can reduce the IFN type I and associated biomarkers levels in patients with high and moderate disease activity (SLEDAI-2К ≥6).

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Pathogenetic, clinical and prognostic significance of IFN stimulated genes expression - IFNGS biomarkers in SLE patientsSept 1 2022 - Nov 1 2022

Pathogenetic, clinical and prognostic significance of IFN stimulated genes expression - IFNGS biomarkers (IFI44L, MX1, IFIT 1, RSAD2, EPSTI1), serum biomarkers (galectin -1,-3,-9; cytokine profile - 20 plex panel - GM-CSF, IFN-γ, IL-2, -4,-5,-6,-7,-8,-10,-13,-15,-17,-18, IP-10. MCP-1, MIG, MIP-1α, MIP-1β, RANTES, TNF-α), TNF-α receptors type II (TNF-RII), В-cell activation factors (BAFF, APRIL) in SLE patients.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Rate of IFN stimulated genesNov 1 2022 - Oct 31 2024

Rate of IFN stimulated genes hyper-expression, serum biomarkers level (galectin -1,-3,-9; cytokine profile - 20 plex panel - GM-CSF, IFN-γ, IL-2, -4,-5,-6,-7,-8,-10,-13,-15,-17,-18, IP-10. MCP-1, MIG, MIP-1α, MIP-1β, RANTES, TNF-α), TNF-α receptors type II level (TNF-RII), В-cell activation factors level (BAFF, APRIL) in SLE patient's blood.

IFN stimulated genes hyper-expression and serum biomarkers levelNov 1 2022 - Oct 31 2024

IFN stimulated genes hyper-expression and serum biomarkers level (galectin -1,-3,-9; cytokine profile - 20 plex panel - GM-CSF, IFN-γ, IL-2, -4,-5,-6,-7,-8,-10,-13,-15,-17,-18, IP-10. MCP-1, MIG, MIP-1α, MIP-1β, RANTES, TNF-α), TNF-α receptors type II level (TNF-RII), В-cell activation factors level (BAFF, APRIL) associated with SLE clinical and laboratory manifestations (such as muco-cutaneous, joints, renal, hematological, immunological et ctr.), disease activity (assessed with SLEDAI-2k) and duration, patients' quality of life.

IFNGSNov 1 2022 - Oct 31 2024

IFNGS alone or as a part of complex poly-parametric indexes is a predictor of standard immunosuppressive and anti-B-cell therapy effectiveness in SLE and flares prevention.
