Abstract

Abstract : Background: Apremilast (APR) has demonstrated efficacy in orogenital ulcers of Behçet´s disease (BD). Response of other clinical manifestations remains unknown. Objectives: To assess the efficacy and safety of APR in monotherapy or combined with disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) in non-aphthous ulcers of BD. Methods: National multicenter open-label study on 34 BD patients treated with APR at maintained standard dose of 30 mg twice daily. Results: From a cohort of 51 patients with APR by refractory orogenital ulcers of BD, we selected 34 (24 women/10 men, mean age 43.8±14.3 years), cases with another clinical manifestation/s. Excluding CTs, colchicine or NSAIDs, APR was given in monotherapy (n=21) or combined with conventional and/or biologic DMARDs in 13 cases (5 methotrexate, 3 azathioprine, 3 hydroxychloroquine, 1 sulfasalazine, 1 dapsone, 2 tocilizumab, 1 IFX). Other active manifestations present at APR onset were: arthralgia/arthritis (16, true arthritis in 5), folliculitis/pseudofolliculitis (14), erythema nodosum (3), furunculosis (2), paradoxical psoriasis by TNFi (2), intestinal ileitis (2), deep venous thrombosis (2), leg ulcers (1), erythematosus and scaly skin lesions (1), fever (1), unilateral anterior uveitis (1) and neurobehçet (1). After a median follow-up of 6 [3-12] months, folliculitis and ileitis improved, neurobehçet remained stable and musculoskeletal manifestations evolved in a variable way. (TABLE) Conclusion: In addition of orogenital ulcers, APR in monotherapy or combined, seems to be useful in skin manifestations of BD Disclosure of Interests: Alba Herrero Morant: None declared, Belen Atienza Mateo: None declared, J.
