Abstract

Abstract : Background: Methotrexate (MTX) is a key anchor drug for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) management. Its use has been associated with hypersensitivity pneumonitis and diffuse lung disease. Whether MTX exposure increases the risk of interstitial lung disease (ILD) in patients with RA is disputed. Objectives: We aimed to evaluate the association of antecedent MTX use with development of RA-ILD. Methods: Through a case-control study design with derivation and international validation samples, we examined the association of MTX exposure with ILD in 482 patients with RA-ILD and 741 patients with RA without ILD. Estimates were pooled over the different samples using meta-analysis techniques. Results: Analysis of the derivation sample revealed an inverse relationship between MTX exposure and RA-ILD (adjusted odds ratio [OR], 0.48; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.25 to 0.92; P=0.028), which was confirmed in the validation samples (pooled adjusted OR, 0.39; 95% CI, 0.23 to 0.68; P<0.001). The combined estimate using both the derivation and validation samples revealed an adjusted OR of 0.43 (95% CI, 0.28 to 0.65; P<0.0001). MTX ever users were less frequent among patients with RA-ILD compared to those without ILD, irrespective of chest high resolution computed tomography pattern. In patients with RA-ILD, ILD onset was significantly delayed in MTX ever users compared to never users (11.5 ± 10.6 years and 3.7 ± 7.1 years, respectively; P<0.001). Conclusion: Our results suggest that MTX is not a risk factor for RA-ILD and support a possible disease modifying effect of MTX on development of RA-ILD.
