Abstract:
A20 haploinsufficiency is an autoinflammatory disease caused by defective inactivation of the NF-κB pathway. We conducted a systematic literature review of articles reporting patients with TNFAIP3 sequence variants from 2016 to August 2023 following PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines. Data from 177 patients from 65 articles were retrieved (108 women). The principal features were mucosal ulcers (n = 129); fever (n = 93) followed by gastrointestinal (n = 81); skin features (n = 76); autoimmunity (n = 61), including thyroiditis (n = 25) and lupus (n = 16); and joint involvements (n = 54). Five patients had died at the time of publication. In 54 of 63 patients, CRP was significantly elevated during flares, with a median of 51 mg/l. The most commonly used treatment included corticosteroids and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (n = 32), TNF blockers (n = 29), colchicine (n = 28), and methotrexate (n = 14). TNFAIP3 variants impacted the ovarian tumor domain in 92 cases and a Zinc finger domain in 68 cases. Geographic origin, reported sex, and variant type significantly impacted phenotype. A better understanding of the wide A20 haploinsufficiency phenotype could facilitate the diagnosis process. Much remains to be elucidated about pathogenesis and treatment to improve outcome in patients with A20 haploinsufficiency.
