Triple-combination therapy did not improve prognosis in anti-MDA5 positive dermatomyositis: a multicentre longitudinal cohort study

Anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5-positive dermatomyositis (MDA5+ DM) is frequently linked with interstitial lung disease (ILD), especially the rapidly progressive ILD (RP-ILD). We conduct this research to evaluate the efficacy and safety of triple-combination (triple-combo) therapy consisting of high-dose corticosteroids, tacrolimus and intravenous cyclophosphamide in treating MDA5+ DM patients with ILD.
