About this study

This is a monocenter, 72-week prospective, randomized controlled study to compare short-term glucocorticoid monotherapy and short-term glucocorticoid combined with MMF in the treatment of IgG4 Related Disease.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • 18-80 years old;
  • All patients must meet the comprehensive diagnostic criteria of IgG4-RD revised in Japan in 2020 or the classification criteria of IgG4-RD formulated by ACR/EULAR in 2019;
  • Active IgG4-RD (at least one organ has an IgG4-RD reaction score >=2 at the time of enrollment.);
  • No previous medication or recurrence after withdrawal.

Exclusion criteria

  • Combined with other autoimmune diseases as the main diagnosis.
  • Pregnant or lactating women
  • Patients with malignant tumor
  • Active bacterial, fungal, viral or mycobacterial infections.
  • Severe complications of important organs, and the expected survival time is less than 6 months.

Treatment and study plan

prednison

Drug

Oral prednison starts at 0.6-0.8mg/kg/d, then tapered and withdrawal in 6 months.

Mycophenolate mofetil

Drug

Oral Mycophenolate mofetil 0.75g bid for 6 months.

Primary outcomes

  1. The difference of recurrent rate of IgG4-RD between the two groups

    Time frame: 72 weeks

    Clinical recurrence definition: any item of IgG4-RD Responder Index >=2 points; Recurrence of previously involved organs or involvement of new organs; With or without elevated serum IgG4 levels.

Secondary outcomes

  1. The time of recurrence

    Time frame: 0-72 weeks

    Clinical recurrence definition: any item of IgG4-RD Responder Index >=2 points; Recurrence of previously involved organs or involvement of new organs; With or without elevated serum IgG4 levels.

  2. The changes of IgG4-related disease Responder Index

    Time frame: 72 weeks

    According to international multispecialty validation study of IgG4-related disease Responder Index (November, 2018), Responder Index ≥ 0, and higher scores mean a worse outcome.

  3. The changes of serum IgG4 levels

    Time frame: 72 weeks

    Level of serum IgG4(mg/dL)

  4. The percentages of adverse events

    Time frame: 72 weeks

    Adverse effect of drugs

  5. The changes of PGA

    Time frame: 72 weeks

    Changes of patient global assessment from baseline, score (0-10, higher is worse)

  6. The difference of remission rate of IgG4-RD between the two groups

    Time frame: 72 weeks

    Including complete remission rate, partial remission rate and total response rate.
