    Journal:  Myositis (Pubmed Central) -  Oct 15, 2022   
    Based on the INBUILD study, antifibrotic treatment with nintedanib is available for progressive fibrosing pulmonary involvement. For rheumatologists, the updated guidelines represent a document relevant for daily practice with many recommendations for the treatment of patients with myositis.

    Further studies are needed to assess the role of newer therapies such as abatacept (inhibition of T cell co-stimulation), sifalimumab (anti-IFNα), Janus kinase [JAK] inhibitors, apremilast (phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitor), and KZR-616 (selective inhibitor of the immunoproteasome) given their biological plausibility and encouraging recent small-case series results. The future of IIM therapy will depend on exploring biomarkers implicated in the etiopathogenesis of IIM, improvements in myositis classification based on serological and histopathological features, and well-designed controlled clinical trials using validated consensus outcome measures.

    Review, Journal:  Use of Janus kinase inhibitors in dermatomyositis: a systematic literature review. (Pubmed Central) -  Jun 30, 2022   
    Systemic corticosteroids are a cornerstone of therapy, and more recently intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG; OCTAGAM®) has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of adults with DM...Although the conclusions that can be drawn from this analysis are limited because of the differences in assessments used across publications, overall treatment of patients with DM or JDM with a JAK inhibitor was associated with significant improvement of a wide range of DM manifestations, including skin lesions, muscle weakness, and ILD. Our systematic literature review suggests that JAK inhibitors may be a viable treatment option for DM/JDM, and randomised controlled trials are necessary to confirm these findings.

    In PANS, which may be associated with an underlying immune dysregulation, sequential infusions of IVIG [Octagam 5%] successfully ameliorated psychological symptoms and dysfunction, with sustained benefits for at least 8 weeks, and up to 46 weeks in a subset of subjects. In addition, baseline immune and autoimmune profiles demonstrated significant elevations in a majority of subjects, which requires further evaluation, characterization, and study to clarify the potential immune dysfunction by which PANS manifests and progresses.

    In vitro comparison between different 10% intravenous immunoglobulin preparations () -  Oct 7, 2021 - Abstract #DGHO2021DGHO_1143;    
    Although different IVIg preparations essentially consist of polyclonal IgG, the different purification processes lead to variations in other characteristics. The IqYmune manufacturing process developed with a QbD approach has generated a 10% IVIg having a higher level of quality and enhanced safety profile while maintaining a high level of efficacy.

    Against the background of the treatment (antibiotic therapy, octagam), a slight improvement in the condition of the boy was noted, however, after a short period of relief, complaints again appeared about fever, diarrhea, aphthous stomatitis, weight loss...The CD40LG gene is associated with X-linked hyper-IgM syndrome (HIGM). Learning Points/ Since primary immunodeficiency states can manifest themselves with malabsorption syndrome, diarrhea, IBD, pediatricians should be more alert and take into account in the differential diagnosis of these conditions and the choice of treatment regimens.

    [VIRTUAL] Intravenous Immunoglobulin for Treatment of Severe Coronavirus Disease 19 (COVID-19) – A Literature Overview () -  Feb 3, 2021 - Abstract #AAAAI2021AAAAI_886;    
    An observational study conducted in 10 COVID-19 patients demonstrated short-term moderate-dose corticosteroid combined with high-dose IVIg reversed severe, deteriorating COVID-19 patients who failed initial low-dose therapy. Three published papers were identified using IVIg in pediatric COVID-19 patients who presented with Kawasaki-like or PMIS (Pediatric COVID-associated Multi-system Inflammatory Syndrome).  Conclusions It may be useful to consider high-dose IVIg at the time of initiation of respiratory distress to potentially promote satisfactory clinical recovery and reduce burden of care for COVID-19 patients.

    No thrombotic events occurred and IVIG was well tolerated, despite most cases demonstrating very elevated D-dimer suggestive of active intravascular fibrinolysis. We believe that IVIG warrants immediate clinical trial evaluation in COVID-19 to confirm its role as a mainstay treatment of moderate to severe COVID-19 infection as a means to reduce hospital stay and utilization of ICU resources, including mechanical ventilation, and potentially reduce mortality.
