OBJECTIVES: Vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, Autoinflammatory, Somatic (VEXAS) syndrome is an autoinflammatory disease caused by somatic mutation of UBA1 and affects multiple organ systems. Involvement of the kidneys is not well characterized. We aimed to investigate the incidence, risk factors and histopathologic features of acute kidney injury (AKI) in VEXAS syndrome.
METHODS: Patients with genetically confirmed UBA1 mutation consistent with VEXAS were included. Charts were manually reviewed. Cox regression analysis was used to identify variables associated with time-to-first AKI event. For patients with a kidney biopsy, histopathologic findings were reviewed.
RESULTS: Eighty-one patients were included, all white men, with a mean age of 66.3 ± 8.6 years. Median (IQR) follow up was 3.5 (2.1-5.2) years during which 20 (25%) developed AKI and 22% died. AKI relapsed in 90% of cases for a median of 6 times during the follow up period. Cumulative incidence estimates (95% CI) for AKI at 1, 3 and 5 years were 6.2% (0.80-11.3%), 16.7% (7.5-25.0%) and 27.9% (14.9-38.9%), respectively. Age and baseline C-reactive protein (CRP) were significantly associated with time-to-first AKI event. Six patients underwent a kidney biopsy. Findings included, plasma cell-rich interstitial nephritis (n = 3), neutrophilic-rich interstitial inflammation (n = 1), leukocytoclastic peritubular capillaritis (n = 1) and acute tubular injury (n = 1). AKI responded well to treatment with glucocorticoids but had relapse upon tapering.
CONCLUSION: AKI is an underrecognized feature of VEXAS occurring in 25% of patients in this cohort. Age at diagnosis and CRP were associated with time to first AKI event during follow up. Plasma cell-rich interstitial nephritis was the most common histopathologic finding.
