Abstract
The treatment of systemic sclerosis (SSc) presents a clinical challenge because of the progressive nature of the disease, relatively poor prognosis, and lack of a proven treatment. In the last 10 years, several studies demonstrated the importance of interleukin 6 (IL6) as a pivotal cytokine in the development of fibrosis and angiopathy, especially in SSc. Tocilizumab, an IL6 receptor antibody, has shown promising results for patients with SSc. A total of 16 patients with SSc were treated with tocilizumab; 14 were female and 2 were male, with a median age of 45.5 years and median disease duration of 31.5 months. Ten patients had anti-SCl-70, none had anticentromere, and two had antipolymerase. Tocilizumab treatment was provided as long as the patient's condition improved. Total treatment duration was 30.33 patient-years. Median treatment duration was 18.5 months, and 3 patients were treated for a period of 4 years and longer. Ten patients were treated with tocilizumab to the date of data collection. All were feeling good and maintained the achieved improvement throughout the treatment period. Improvement was recorded in 12 patients (75%). Mean reduction in modified Rodnan skin score was 11 points (p < 0.001), musculoskeletal and joint involvement improved in 75% and 80% of patients, respectively, and improvement in lung function was recorded in 46%. Patients with early SSc responded better to tocilizumab (p = 0.01). This is the largest reported case series of tocilizumab treatment in patients with SSc. The treatment was without significant side-effects and was beneficial for most patients, especially in early disease. The present study reinforces previous findings regarding the efficacy of tocilizumab in treating SSc.
