Eight patients tested positive for at least one MSA or MAA. The prevalence of autoantibodies was low. Positivity for anti-SRP, anti-MDA-5, anti-Mi-2 and anti-SSA/Ro52 antibodies was seen in 4, 3, 1 and 1 patients, respectively. Ethnic differences and testing for autoantibodies during/after therapy could be responsible for the low positivity rate for autoantibodies.
