Therapeutic plasma exchange in multiple sclerosis patients with an aggressive relapse: and observational analysis in a high-volume center

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

An evidence-based treatment for a Multiple Sclerosis (MS) relapse is an intravenous administration of 3–5 g of Methylprednisolone. In case of insufficient effect or corticosteroids intolerance, the therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) is indicated. To assess the clinical effect of TPE in treatment of relapse in patients with relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS), we enrolled 155 patients meeting the following criteria (study period: January 2011 to February 2021): (1) age > 18, (2) RRMS according to the McDonald ´s 2017 criteria, (3) MS relapse and insufficient effect of corticosteroids/corticosteroids intolerance, (4) baseline EDSS < 8. Exclusion criteria: (1) progressive form of disease, (2) history of previous TPE. Following parameters were monitored: EDSS changes (before and after corticosteroid treatment, before and after TPE; EDSS after TPE was assessed at the next clinical follow-up at the MS Center), and improvement of EDSS according to the number of procedures and baseline severity of relapse. 115 females (74%) and 40 males (26%) were included. The median age was 41 years (IQR 33–47)—131 patients underwent the pulse corticosteroids treatment and TPE, while 24 patients underwent only TPE without any previous corticosteroid treatment. Median baseline EDSS was 4.5 (IQR 3.5–5.5), median EDSS after finishing steroids was 4.5 (IQR 4.0–5.5). EDSS prior to the TPE was 4.5 (IQR 4–6), EDSS after TPE was 4.5 (IQR 3.5–5.5). We observed a significant improvement in the EDSS after TPE (p < 0.001). Sex differences were seen in TPE effectiveness, with median improvement of EDSS in females being -0.5 (IQR 1–0) and in males being 0 (IQR -0.5 to 0), p = 0.048. There was no difference in EDSS improvement by age category: 18–30 years, 31–40 years, 41–50 years, > 50 (p = 0.94), nor by total TPE count (p = 0.91). In this retrospective study of patients with an aggressive relapse and insufficient effect of intravenous corticosteroid treatment, a significant effect of TPE on EDSS improveme...
