Background: The overall occurrence of Herpes zoster (HZ) infections in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is greater than in the general population although is controversial whether the use of the different disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) increases this risk. Objectives: To investigate the incidence and factors associate to HZ infections in patients with RA exposed to biologic agents (BA) and small molecule JAK inhibitors (JAKi), and to describe RA disease features at the moment of HZ infection. Methods: Retrospective longitudinal study was conducted. We included RA patients seen at the rheumatology outpatient clinic of tertiary hospital, commencing BA (anti-TNF therapy and no anti-TNF therapy) or JAKi from Jan 2007 until Dec 2017, and followed up until end of study (Dec 2019). The outcome of interest was the occurrence of HZ infection, the diagnosis of HZ events was based on the rheumatologist’s report. Covariables: sociodemographic, clinical, and concomitant treatments including glucocorticoids, conventional synthetic DMARDs (csDMARDs). Survival techniques were used to estimate the incidence of HZ (IR), per 1000 patient-year (PYs) with the respective Confidence Interval [95%CI]. Cox multivariate regression model to compare the risk of HZ was performed. Results were expressed in Hazard ratio (HR). Results: 474 RA patients were included, starting 881 different courses of treatment (1954.86 patients-years of follow-up). 382 (80.6%) were women with a mean (SD) age of 56.9 (15.0) years at first BA. Across all groups of treatments, a total 18 HZ were recorded, events were non-serious and involved 1 or 2 dermatomes. The mean age (SD) at moment of the infection was 62 (11) years and 10 cases were on prednisone > 7.5 mg/day. 13 HZ cases (72.2%) occurred on treatment with anti-TNF treatment (6 with adalimumab, 4 with certolizumab and 1 with infliximab), 4 (22.2%) cases were on treatment with rituximab one occurred during tocilizumab prescription. The overall incidence of HZ was 9.20 cases per ... |
