To the Editor: Data on Covid-19 in patients with immune-mediated inflammatory disease who have received anticytokine biologics, other immunomodulatory therapies, or both on a long-term basis are scarce. Trials to assess the efficacy of antirheumatic therapies such as hydroxychloroquine 1 and anticytokine therapies such as interleukin-6 inhibitors 2 to improve outcomes in patients with Covid-19 are ongoing. The rationale for their use is that worse outcomes (i.e., hospitalization, ventilation, or death) may be related to a proinflammatory cytokine storm. 3,4 Here, we report a prospective case series involving patients with known immune-mediated inflammatory disease (rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, psoriasis, inflammatory bowel disease, or related conditions) who were receiving anticytokine biologics, other immunomodulatory therapies, or both when confirmed or highly suspected symptomatic Covid-19 developed. Established patients at New York University Langone Health in New York City who had immune-mediated inflammatory disease were assessed during the period from March 3 through April 3, 2020 (average follow-up, 16 days from symptom onset). We analyzed the demographic and clinical data on patients who had immune-mediated inflammatory disease with symptomatic Covid-19 and compared the patients for whom hospitalization was warranted (hospitalized patients) with those for whom it was not (ambulatory patients). We identified 86 patients with immune-mediated inflammatory disease who had either confirmed (59 patients) or highly suspected (27 patients) symptomatic Covid-19 infection (Table 1, and Table S1 in the Supplementary Appendix, available with the full text of this letter at NEJM.org). Of these patients, 62 of 86 (72%) were receiving biologics or Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors, and the overall incidence of hospitalization was 16% (14 of 86 patients). The hospitalized patients were older than the ambulatory patients. Although the distribution of diagnoses of immune-mediated inflammatory diseases was similar in the ambulatory group and the hospitalized group, a higher percentage of admitted patients had rheumatoid arthritis. As compared with the ambulatory patients, more of the patients for whom hospitalization was warranted had coexisting hypertension, diabetes, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The percentage of patients who were receiving biologics or JAK inhibitors at baseline was higher among the ambulatory patients than among the hospitalized patients (55 of 72 patients [76%] and 7 of 14 patients [50%], respectively) (Table 1 and Table S2), and the overall incidence of hospitalization among patients who had received these medications on a long-term basis was 11% (7 of 62 patients). However, even after multivariate analysis, the use of oral glucocorticoids (in 4 of 14 hospitalized patients [29%] and in 4 of 72 ambulatory patients [6%]), hydroxychloroquine (in 3 of 14 patients [21%] and 5 of 72 patients [7%], respectively), and methotrexate (in 6 of 14 patients [43%] and 11 of 72 patients [15%], respectively) was higher among patients with immune-mediated inflammatory disease for whom hospitalization was warranted (Table S2). These observations were consistent when the analysis was restricted to patients with confirmed SARS-Cov-2 infection on polymerase-chain-reaction testing (Table S3). Of the 14 patients with immune-mediated inflammatory disease who were hospitalized, 79% (11 of 14) were discharged (mean stay, 5.6 days), and 2 remain hospitalized as of April 3. Of the 2 patients with more severe disease, 1 had elevated interleukin-6 levels and received mechanical ventilation for acute respiratory distress syndrome, and the other died in the emergency department; neither patient was receiving biologic therapies on a long-term basis (Table S4). Additional data are provided in Tables S5 through S8. A better understanding of the implications of Covid-19 in patients with immune-mediated inflammatory disease and the effects of anticytokine and other immunosuppressive therapies is urgently needed to guide clinicians in the care of patients with psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and related conditions. Although our analysis was limited in sample size, our data reveal an incidence of hospitalization among patients with immune-mediated inflammatory disease that was consistent with that among patients with Covid-19 in the general population in New York City reported by the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene 5 (35,746 of 134,874 patients [26%]) (Table S5). These findings suggest that the baseline use of biologics is not associated with worse Covid-19 outcomes.
