BACKGROUND: Rituximab (RTX) is considered the first-line treatment for pemphigus vulgaris (PV), which is a B-cell-mediated acquired autoimmune disease. However, no consensus on the optimum dosage has been achieved.
OBJECTIVES: To investigate the efficacy and safety of low-dose RTX (a single infusion of 500 mg) for the treatment of PV, a cohort study was conducted for patients with PV, along with a 12-month follow-up following the administration of RTX.
METHODS: Patients with moderate or severe PV were divided into group A (low-dose RTX combined with corticosteroids) and group B (corticosteroids alone). Data on complete remission (CR) rates, doses of corticosteroids, cumulative doses of corticosteroids at the third, sixth, and twelfth months, pemphigus disease area index and adverse effects (AEs) were collected.
RESULTS: Forty-four patients with moderate or severe PV were enrolled in this study (19 in group A and 25 in group B). Patients treated with low-dose RTX had higher CR rates, lower doses of corticosteroids at the third, sixth, and twelfth months, lower cumulative doses of corticosteroids at the sixth and twelfth months, and fewer AEs than those who received corticosteroids alone.
CONCLUSIONS: This study indicated that low-dose RTX may be a beneficial and secure therapy option for patients with moderate to severe PV.
