Patient-reported outcomes from a phase III study of baricitinib in patients with conventional synthetic DMARD-refractory rheumatoid arthritis.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVES:To evaluate the effect of baricitinib on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and an inadequate response or intolerance to conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs. METHODS:In this phase III study, patients were randomised 1:1:1 to placebo (N=228), baricitinib 2?mg once daily (QD, N=229) or baricitinib 4?mg QD (N=227). PROs included the Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (HAQ-DI), Patient's Global Assessment of Disease Activity (PtGA), patient's assessment of pain, measures from patient electronic daily diaries (duration and severity of morning joint stiffness (MJS), Worst Tiredness, Worst Joint Pain), Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue (FACIT-F), SF-36, EuroQol 5-D index scores and visual analogue scales (VAS) and the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire-RA. The primary time point for the study was week 12. Treatment comparisons were assessed with logistic regression for categorical measures and analysis of covariance for continuous variables. RESULTS:Statistically significant improvements were observed for both baricitinib groups versus placebo in HAQ-DI, PtGA, pain, daily diary measures, EuroQoL index scores and SF-36 physical component score at week 12 and for those measures when assessed at week 24. Baricitinib 2 mg and baricitinib 4 mg were statistically significantly improved versus placebo for the EuroQoL VAS and FACIT-F, respectively, at week 24. CONCLUSIONS:Baricitinib 2 or 4?mg provided significant improvement versus placebo in PROs across different domains of RA, including physical function, MJS, fatigue, pain and quality of life.

Project description:ObjectivesTo evaluate humoral responses to three doses of the inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine (CoronaVac) in patients with spondyloarthritis (SpA) and the effect of therapy, compared with a control group (CG).MethodsProspective cohort of axial SpA/psoriatic arthritis patients and age/sex-balanced CG from the CoronavRheum phase 4 trial (NCT04754698). CoronaVac was given in two doses (28-days interval) with a booster at day 210. Blood samples were collected in the days 0/28 (D28)/69 (D69) and 240 (D240) to evaluate anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG seropositivity (SP) and neutralising antibodies (NAb).ResultsOne hundred and ninety-four SpA patients were enrolled and 183 patients were age/sex-balanced with 183 CG. At D69, SpA patients showed a high SP (80.2% vs. 95.7%, P<0.001) and moderate NAb positivity (61.6% vs. 82.7%, P<0.001), but lower than CG. In patients, older age prednisone (P<0.001), methotrexate (MTX) (P<0.001) and TNF inhibitors (TNFi) (P<0.001) were independently associated with lower SP, while Caucasian ethnicity (P<0.05) and prednisone (P<0.01) were associated with diminished NAb. In contrast, sulfasalazine (SSZ) use was associated with NAb presence (P<0.05). In monotherapy, only TNFi was also associated with absence of SP (P<0.05). Further comparison with CG revealed that TNFi and/or MTX negatively impacted SP/NAb (P<0.05). In contrast, patients under SSZ monotherapy achieved 100% SP (P>0.999) and 83.3% NAb positivity (P>0.999). SSZ+TNFi combination resulted in a similar response than CG [SP (P=0.153) and NAb (P=0.715)]. After third dose (D69-D240), a major increment occurred for SP (81.3% to 93.1%, P<0.001) and NAb (63.2% to 86.1%, P<0.001), but still lower than CG (P<0.05), and only TNFi impaired both SP (P=0.016)/NAb (P=0.002).ConclusionsWe provided novel data demonstrating that TNFi attenuates immunogenicity in SpA patients while SSZ has a positive impact on vaccine antibody production. We also confirmed that MTX in combination with TNFi had a major negative impact in vaccine humoral response (CoronavRheum clinicaltrials.gov #NCT04754698).
