  • IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a recently recognized disorder, characterized by elevated serum IgG4 concentrations, dense tissue infiltration of IgG4-positive plasma cells and storiform fibrosis. Treatment is usually based on steroids, however, relapses and long-term adverse effects are frequent. We prospectively studied 5 consecutive patients with histologically-proven IgG4-RD and renal involvement, treated with an extended Rituximab protocol combined with steroids. Two doses of intravenous cyclophosphamide were added in 4 patients.Five patients with IgG-RD were investigated: three had tubulointerstitial nephritis (TIN), while two had retroperitoneal fibrosis (RPF). In the patients with TIN, renal biospy was repeated after 1 year.In the patients with TIN, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) at 12 months increased from 9 to 24 ml/min per 1.73 m2; IgG/IgG4 decreased from 3,236/665 to 706/51 mg/dl; C3/C4 increased from 49/6 to 99/27 mg/dl; CD20+ B-cells decreased from 8.7% to 0.5%; Regulatory T-cells decreased from 7.2% to 2.5%. These functional and immunologic changes persisted at 24 months and in two patients at 36 months. A repeat renal biopsy in the patients with TIN showed a dramatic decrease in interstitial plasma cell infiltrate with normalization of IgG4/IgG positive plasma cells. The patients with RPF showed a huge regression of retroperitoneal tissue.In this sample of patients with aggressive IgG4-RD and renal involvement, treatment aimed at depleting B cells and decreasing antibody and cytokine production was associated with a substantial, persistent increase in eGFR, and a definite improvement in immunologic, radiologic and histological parameters.
