Background:Tumour necrosis factor (TNF) receptor-associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS) is one of the best-known monogenic auto-inflammatory disorders resulting from an autosomal dominant variation in the TNF super family receptor 1A (TNFRSF1A) gene (1).Objectives:To define best treatment approach in patients with TRAPS and effect on long-term outcomes.Methods:We reviewed all data on patients with TRAPS enrolled in the Eurofever international registry according the INSAID gene variant classification and the new Eurofever/PRINTO classification criteria (EPCC).Results:Data on 226 patients were available. Patients not fulfilling the EPCC carrying likely benign/benign variants (21 patients, 9%) or VOUS/not classified variants (40 patients, 18%) displayed a milder disease than the patients fulfilling the EPCC with VOUS/not classified variants (38 patients, 17%) or pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants (127 patients, 56%). In particular, in patients not fulfilling the EPCC, less frequent abdominal pain and skin rashes, higher efficacy rate of colchicine and no development of AA amyloidosis have been reported. Almost 90% of patients fulfilling the EPCC required maintenance therapy and anti-interleukin (IL)-1 drugs were the most frequently used, with the highest efficacy rate (>85% complete response), while Etanercept was less effectively used and discontinued in 65% of patients.Conclusion:Anti-IL-1 drugs are the best maintenance treatment in TRAPS with potential to reverse the most serious disease complications of AA amyloidosis and infertility. The diagnosis of TRAPS should be considered very carefully in patients carrying VOUS/not classified variants not fulfilling the EPCC.References:[1]Lachmann HJ, Papa R, Gerhold K, Obici L, Touitou I, Cantarini L, et al.
