INTRODUCTION: In this study, we sought to address changes in blood lymphocyte
subpopulations and labial salivary gland (LSG) inflammation after belimumab
treatment in patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) and to identify
predictors of response to treatment. METHODS: Sequential blood lymphocyte subsets
and LSG biopsies were analysed between week 0 (W0) and W28 in 15 patients with
pSS treated with belimumab. Systemic response to treatment was defined as a
decrease in the European League Against Rheumatism Sjögren's Syndrome Disease
Activity Index score of ?3 points at W28. RESULTS: After belimumab, we observed a
decrease in blood B lymphocytes primarily involving CD27-negative/immunoglobulin
D-positive naïve B cells (p=0.008). Lymphocytic sialadenitis (focus score >1)
that was present in 12 patients (80.0 %) before belimumab treatment became
negative in 5 of them after treatment (p=0.03). The median (interquartile range)
LSG B-cell/T-cell ratio decreased from 0.58 (0.5-0.67) to 0.50 (0.5-0.5)
(p=0.06). B-cell activating factor (BAFF) staining was detected in 11 (78.6 %) of
14 patients before belimumab treatment compared with 7 (50.0 %) of 14 after
belimumab therapy (p=0.10). The median percentage of BAFF-positive cells in foci
significantly decreased from 27.5 % (10-40) to 5 % (0-20) (p=0.03). A systemic
response was achieved in six patients (40 %). The only predictor of response was
the presence of a low number of natural killer (NK) cells, both in blood (8.5 %
[7-10] vs 11 % [9-21]; p=0.04) and in LSG (20.6/mm(3) [20.0-21.4] vs 30.0/mm(3)
[25.0-100.0], p=0.003). Serum BAFF levels did not influence response to
treatment. CONCLUSIONS: Low blood and salivary NK cell numbers are associated
with a better response to belimumab. This suggests that two distinct subsets of
pSS may exist: one with a predominant type I interferon (IFN)-BAFF-B-cell axis,
representing good responders to belimumab; and one with a predominant type II
IFN-NK cell axis, representing non-responders. TRIAL REGISTRATION:
