Anti-PLA2R antibodies (Ab) are a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in primary membranous nephropathy (PMN). We assessed the relationship between the levels of anti-PLA2R Ab at diagnosis and different variables related to disease activity and prognosis in a western population of PMN patients. Forty-one patients with positive anti-PLA2R Ab from three nephrology departments in Israel were enrolled. Clinical and laboratory data were collected at diagnosis and after one year of follow-up, including serum anti-PLA2R Ab levels (ELISA) and glomerular PLA2R deposits on biopsy. Univariable statistical analysis and permutation-based ANOVA and ANCOVA tests were performed. The median [(interquartile range (IQR)) age of the patients was 63 [50–71], with 28 (68%) males. At the time of diagnosis, 38 (93%) of the patients had nephrotic range proteinuria, and 19 (46%) had heavy proteinuria (≥8 gr/24 h). The median [IQR] level of anti-PLA2R at diagnosis was 78 [35–183] RU/mL. Anti-PLA2R levels at diagnosis were correlated with 24 h proteinuria, hypoalbuminemia and remission after one year (p= 0.017,p= 0.003 andp= 0.034, respectively). The correlations for 24 h proteinuria and hypoalbuminemia remained significant after adjustment for immunosuppressive treatment (p= 0.003 andp= 0.034, respectively). Higher levels of anti-PLA2R Ab at diagnosis in patients with active PMN from a western population are associated with higher proteinuria, lower serum albumin and remission one year after the diagnosis. This finding supports the prognostic value of anti-PLA2R Ab levels and their possible use in stratifying PMN patients.
