OBJECTIVE: To report the 10-year follow-up of the MAINTAIN Nephritis Trial
comparing azathioprine (AZA) and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) as maintenance
therapy of proliferative lupus nephritis, and to test different definitions of
early response as predictors of long-term renal outcome. METHODS: In 2014, data
on survival, kidney function, 24?h proteinuria, renal flares and other outcomes
were collected for the 105 patients randomised between 2002 and 2006, except in
13 lost to follow-up. RESULTS: Death (2 and 3 in the AZA and MMF groups,
respectively) and end-stage renal disease (1 and 3, respectively) were rare
events. Time to renal flare (22 and 19 flares in AZA and MMF groups,
respectively) did not differ between AZA and MMF patients. Patients with good
long-term renal outcome had a much more stringent early decrease of 24?h
proteinuria compared with patients with poor outcome. The positive predictive
value of a 24?h proteinuria <0.5?g/day at 3 months, 6 months and 12?months for a
good long-term renal outcome was excellent (between 89% and 92%). Inclusion of
renal function and urinalysis in the early response criteria did not impact the
value of early proteinuria decrease as long-term prognostic marker. CONCLUSIONS:
The long-term follow-up data of the MAINTAIN Nephritis Trial do not indicate that
MMF is superior to AZA as maintenance therapy in a Caucasian population suffering
from proliferative lupus nephritis. Moreover, we confirm the excellent positive
predictive value of an early proteinuria decrease for long-term renal outcome.
