Role of Cytokines in EGPA and the Possibility of Treatment with an Anti-IL-5 Antibody.

Abstract：

:Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a type of systemic vasculitis with eosinophilia in the peripheral blood, which is preceded by bronchial asthma or allergic disease. EGPA is pathologically characterized by microangiopathy granulomatosis vasculitis. Vasculitis can be exacerbated and cause central nervous system and cardiovascular disorders and gastrointestinal perforation. Histological examination reveals eosinophil infiltration and granulomas in lesions in areas such as the lung, nervous system, and skin. Laboratory tests show inflammatory findings such as C-reactive protein (CRP) elevation, increased eosinophils, elevated serum IgE, and elevated myeloperoxidase-anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (MPO-ANCA). MPO-ANCA is positive in approximately 40-70% of cases of this disease. EGPA is a necrotizing vasculitis that affects small- and medium-sized blood vessels; however, it differs from other types of ANCA-related vasculitis (such as microscopic polyangiitis and granulomatosis) because it is preceded by bronchial asthma and eosinophilia in the blood and tissues. Treatment with immunosuppressive agents such as steroids or cyclophosphamide depends on the Five Factor Score, which predicts the prognosis and severity of the condition. If the effect of appropriate treatment with steroids is insufficient, the anti-interleukin-5 antibody mepolizumab can be administered. The combination of mepolizumab with standard treatment leads to a significantly longer duration of remission, a higher proportion of patients who achieve sustained remission, and less steroid use than with a placebo.
