Drug survival of biologic therapy in a large, disease-based registry of patients with psoriasis: results from the Psoriasis Longitudinal Assessment and Registry (PSOLAR).

ABSTRACT:

Background

Drug survival is a marker for treatment sustainability in chronic diseases such as psoriasis.

Objective

The aim of these analyses was to assess survival of biologic treatments in the PSOriasis Longitudinal Assessment and Registry (PSOLAR).

Methods

PSOLAR is a large, prospective, international, disease-based registry of patients with psoriasis receiving (or eligible for) systemic therapy in a real-world setting. Drug survival is defined as the time from initiation to discontinuation (stop/switch) of biologic therapy on registry. The number of patients who discontinued each treatment and the duration of therapy were recorded. Using Kaplan-Meier survival curves and Cox-regression analyses [hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs)], time to discontinuation was compared across cohorts undergoing first-, second- or third-line treatment with ustekinumab, infliximab, adalimumab or etanercept.

Results

As of the 2013 data cut, 12 095 patients with psoriasis were enrolled in PSOLAR. Of the 4000 patients initiating any new biologic therapy, approximately 3500 started a first-line, second-line or third-line biologic therapy during the registry. Lack of effectiveness was the most common reason for discontinuation across biologic therapies. Based on the multivariate analysis, significantly shorter times to discontinuation were observed for infliximab [HR (95%CI) = 2.73 (1.48-5.04), P = 0.0014]; adalimumab [4.16 (2.80-6.20), P < 0.0001]; and etanercept [4.91 (3.28-7.35) P < 0.0001] compared with ustekinumab [reference treatment]) for first-line biologic use; results were similar for treatment effects for second/third-line therapies. Although limited in power, analyses in patients with concurrent psoriatic arthritis confirmed by a rheumatologist reflect observations in the overall psoriasis population.

Conclusion

Drug survival was superior for ustekinumab compared with infliximab, adalimumab and etanercept in patients with psoriasis.

Project description:ObjectiveOur objective was to compare therapeutic response among patients with early-onset psoriasis (EOP) and late-onset psoriasis (LOP) receiving adalimumab, etanercept, infliximab, ustekinumab, or methotrexate in the Psoriasis Longitudinal Assessment and Registry (PSOLAR).MethodsPatients were grouped by age of onset: EOP (age ≤ 40 years) or LOP (age > 40 years). Repeated-measures analysis with logistic regression was used to calculate the adjusted odds ratio (AOR; adjusted for baseline characteristics) for achieving a Physician's Global Assessment score of cleared/minimal (PGA 0/1) or a percentage of body surface area involved with psoriasis < 3% (%BSA < 3) or %BSA < 1 for all patients; similar sensitivity analyses were performed for each treatment group.ResultsOf 7511 patients, 5479 (72.9%) had EOP. The LOP group had a higher likelihood of achieving PGA 0/1 after treatment than did the EOP group in all patients (AOR 1.14 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.05-1.25]; p = 0.0019); the same was true in subgroups of etanercept-treated (AOR 1.38 [95% CI 1.14-1.66]; p = 0.0010) and methotrexate-treated (AOR 1.62 [95% CI 1.16-2.26]; p = 0.0049) patients. No significant difference was found between the EOP and LOP groups with regard to the likelihood of achieving %BSA < 3 or %BSA < 1 among all patients. However, LOP patients were more likely than EOP patients to achieve %BSA < 3 or %BSA < 1 in subgroups treated with infliximab (AOR 1.45 [95% CI 1.09-1.93; p = 0.0103] and AOR 1.36 [95% CI 1.03-1.78; p = 0.0290], respectively) and etanercept (AOR 1.30 [95% CI 1.06-1.61; p = 0.0123] and AOR 1.34 [95% CI 1.09-1.64; p = 0.0053], respectively).ConclusionOur real-world data from PSOLAR indicate that there are differences in some patient characteristics between EOP and LOP and that patients with EOP are less likely than those with LOP to respond to certain systemic treatments.

Project description:IntroductionReal-world data are limited comparing Asian and White patients with psoriasis using biologic therapy. This study compared the 6-month effectiveness of biologic therapy between Asian and White plaque patients with psoriasis in the CorEvitas Psoriasis Registry.MethodsAnalyses included biologic initiations and 6-month follow-up visits from self-identified Asian (n = 293) and White (n = 2314) patients in the USA/Canada (4/2015-4/2020). Outcomes included: Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) 75, disease activity measures [body surface area (BSA) ≤ 1, BSA ≤ 3, PASI90, PASI100, Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) 0/1], and patient-reported outcomes [Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) 0/1, itch, fatigue, skin pain, EuroQoL visual analog scale (EQ-VAS), patient global assessment, Work Productivity Activity and Impairment (WPAI) domains]. Unadjusted regression models were used to calculate odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for achievement of binary outcomes and difference in mean change in continuous outcomes (β, 95% CI) at 6 months, followed by adjustment for age, sex, body mass index, alcohol, smoking, health insurance, education, comorbidities, scalp psoriasis morphology, psoriatic arthritis, biologic class, previous biologics, and baseline outcome value.ResultsAsians had lower proportions of women (32.8% versus 49.1%) and obesity (27.3% versus 54.5%), and higher proportions on Medicaid (19.9% versus 8.8%), graduated college (50.9% versus 40.1%) and never smoked (67.1% versus 44.1%). In unadjusted analyses, Asians had 52% higher odds of achieving PASI75 versus White patients (OR 1.52; 95% CI 1.15, 2.02). After adjustment, the association was attenuated (OR 1.11; 0.81, 1.52). Secondary outcomes experienced similar patterns except for DLQI: Asians had 33% lower odds of achieving DLQI 0/1 in both the unadjusted (OR 0.67; 0.50, 0.90) and adjusted (OR 0.67; 0.49, 0.92) models.ConclusionUnadjusted differences in biologic therapy effectiveness between Asians compared with White patients were likely explained by differences in demographic, lifestyle, and psoriatic disease characteristics between groups. However, Asians still experienced lesser improvements in skin-related quality of life, even after adjustment.
