Objective: Older age, dermatomyositis, and specific serum autoantibodies such as anti-TIF1-γ are associated with higher cancer risk in patients with myositis. We evaluated a vast cohort of patients with myositis for the prevalence of cancer, the association to disease features, and the performance of the recent IMACS guidelines.
Methods: A retrospective cohort analysis was performed and in all cases serum autoantibodies were tested using HEp-2, immunoassays, RNA- and protein-immunoprecipitation.
