Pos0157 the Eurofever FMF Longitudinal Cohort: First Longitudinal Data

Background: In 2021 we described the baseline clinical information about 887 FMF patients enrolled in the Eurofever registry since 2009. Objectives: We describe now first longitudinal data about these patients. Methods: Patients with FMF enrolled in Eurofever registry with at least one follow-up visit were included in a longitudinal study. Demographic and clinical data were analyzed. Disease activity and maximum dose of colchicine were defined according to the 2016 EULAR recommendation 1. Results: 1104 patients with FMF are enrolled in Eurofever registry in November 2023, 574 males and 530 females. The median age at disease onset was 3.8 (0.4 - 28.1); the median diagnostic delay was 2.4 (0.1 – 28.7); the median age at enrollment was 7.9 (1.7 – 50.8). Follow-up information was available in 497 patients, with a mean number of follow-up visits of 2.2 (25th-75th centile 1-4) and a mean duration of follow-up of 5.4 years (range 2.2 – 8.2). At the last follow-up around half of patients in the longitudinal cohort were in complete remission, 34.9% experienced some disease activity (Conclusion: This study analyzes the initial data concerning the natural history of the Eurofever FMF cohort. At the last follow-up less than 50% of the patients have achieved complete disease control. Colchicine is the most used treatment. Among biologic drugs, IL-1 inhibitors are the most frequently used, with a good treatment retention rate at the last follow-up, especially for anti-IL-1 monoclonal antibody. REFERENCES: 1 S.
