BACKGROUND: Despite immunoglobulin replacement (IgRT) therapy, some patients with primary antibody deficiency (PAD) continue to develop respiratory infections. Recurrent and severe respiratory infections, particularly pneumonia, can lead to significant morbidity and mortality. Therefore, we sought to determine the risk factors of developing pneumonia in PAD patients, already receiving IgRT.
METHODS: We evaluated clinical and laboratory features of PAD patients enrolled in the US Immune Deficiency Network (USIDNET) registry by April 2017. Patients were included if they met the following criteria: (1) PAD diagnosis (common variable immunodeficiency (CVID), agammaglobulinemia, hypogammaglobinemia, and specific antibody deficiency (SAD) and (2) available data on infections before and after IgRT. Patients were excluded if they were not receiving IgRT, or if no pre/post infections data were available. Descriptive and multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to identify factors associated with pneumonia post-IgRT.
RESULTS: A total of 1232 patients met the inclusion criteria. Following IgRT, 218 patients (17.7%) were reported to have at least one pneumonia episode. Using multivariate logistic regression analysis, we found a statistically significant increased risk of pneumonia in patients with asthma (OR: 2.55, 95% CI (1.69-3.85), p < 0.001) bronchiectasis (OR: 3.94, 95% CI (2.29-6.80), p < 0.001), interstitial lung disease (ILD) (OR: 3.28, 95%CI (1.43-7.56), p < 0.005), splenomegaly (OR: 2.02, 95%CI (1.08-3.76), p < 0.027), allergies (OR: 2.44, 95% CI [1.44-4.13], p = 0.001), and patients who were not on immunosuppressives (OR: 1.61; 95%CI [1.06-2.46]; p = 0.027). For every 50 unit increase in IgA, the odds of reporting pneumonia post IgRT decreased (OR: 0.86, 95% CI [0.73-1.02], p = 0.062). Infectious organisms were reported in 35 of 218 patients who reported pneumonia after IgRT. Haemophilus influenzae was the most frequently reported (n = 11, 31.43%), followed by Streptococcus pneumoniae (n = 7, 20.00%).
CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest PAD patients with chronic and structural lung disease, splenomegaly, and allergies were associated with persistent pneumonia. However, our study is limited by the cross-sectional nature of the USIDNET database and limited longitudinal data. Further studies are warranted to identify susceptible causes and explore targeted solutions for prevention and associated morbidity and mortality.
CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: Patients with primary antibody deficiency with structural lung disease, allergies, and splenomegaly are associated with persistent pneumonia post-IgRT.
