BACKGROUND: Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a rare disorder which is characterized by the accumulation of excessive surfactant lipids and proteins in alveolar macrophages and alveoli. Oral statin therapy has been reported to be a novel therapy for PAP with hypercholesterolemia. We aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of oral statin therapy for PAP without hypercholesterolemia.
METHODS: In a prospective real-world observational study, 47 PAP patients without hypercholesterolemia were screened. Oral statin was initiated as therapy for these PAP patients with 12 months of follow-up.
RESULTS: Forty PAP patients completed the study. 26 (65%) of 40 PAP patients responded to statin therapy according to the study criteria. Partial pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO2) and percentage of diffusion capacity predicted (DLCO%) significantly increased while disease severity score (DSS) and radiographic abnormalities decreased after 12 months of statin therapy (all p < 0.05). The factors associated with response were higher levels of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) antibody and baseline total cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TC/HDL) (p = 0.015 and p = 0.035, respectively). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) of dose of atorvastatin for predicting the response to statin therapy for PAP was 0.859 (95% CI: 0.738-0.979, p < 0.001). The cutoff dose of atorvastatin was 67.5 mg daily with their corresponding specificity (64.3%) and sensitivity (96.2%). No severe side effects were observed during the study.
CONCLUSIONS: In PAP patients without hypercholesterolemia, statin therapy resulted in improvements in arterial blood gas (ABG) measurement, pulmonary function, and radiographic assessment.
