Project description:Tildrakizumab is a high-affinity, humanized immunoglobulin G1κ, anti-interleukin-23p19 monoclonal antibody recently approved in Japan for treatment of plaque psoriasis. We report results from Japanese patients treated with tildrakizumab in the multinational, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled reSURFACE 1 study (clinicaltrials.gov NCT01722331). Adults with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis were randomized (2:2:1) to receive subcutaneous tildrakizumab 100 or 200 mg or placebo every 12 weeks. Placebo recipients were rerandomized to tildrakizumab 100 or 200 mg at week 12. The global study coprimary endpoints were the proportions of patients achieving 75% improvement from baseline Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI 75) and Physician Global Assessment (PGA) response (0/1 with ≥2 grade reduction from baseline) at week 12. Analyses included 158 Japanese patients randomized to tildrakizumab 100 (n = 64) or 200 mg (n = 62) or placebo (n = 32). Japanese patients had higher mean baseline body surface area involvement and PASI versus all reSURFACE 1 patients. At week 12, significantly more Japanese patients receiving tildrakizumab 100 and 200 mg versus placebo achieved PASI 75 (54.7% and 54.8% vs 6.3%, respectively, both nominal p < 0.001) and PGA 0/1 response (54.7% and 56.5% vs 9.4%, respectively, both nominal P < 0.001). Response rates increased over time with maximal efficacy after 22-28 weeks; >80% of patients achieving PASI 75 or PASI 90 at week 28 and continuing tildrakizumab treatment at the same dose maintained response at week 64. From baseline to week 28, absolute PASI decreased from >12 in all patients to ≤2 in >40% and ≤3 in >50% of patients receiving tildrakizumab. Tildrakizumab was generally well tolerated with an adverse event profile similar to that of placebo. Tildrakizumab treatment was associated with durable efficacy in Japanese patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis despite greater baseline disease severity versus the global reSURFACE 1 population.

Project description:The three part, double-blind, randomized, controlled reSURFACE 1 trial and extension study (NCT01722331) evaluated efficacy and safety of tildrakizumab in adults with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. Patients with ≥50% improvement from baseline in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI 50) following treatment with tildrakizumab 100 mg (TIL100) or 200 mg (TIL200) could enter the optional long-term extension study and continue treatment at the same dose for an additional 192 weeks. This subgroup analysis assessed the long-term efficacy and safety of tildrakizumab treatment for Japanese patients enrolled in reSURFACE 1 for up to 5 years of treatment. The primary efficacy outcomes were the proportions of patients who maintained PASI 75 and Physician Global Assessment (PGA) clear or minimal with ≥2-grade reduction from baseline (PGA 0/1) from base study week 64 to extension week 192. Secondary outcomes were the proportion of patients who maintained PASI 90/100 from base study week 64 to extension week 192. Adverse events (AEs) were monitored throughout the study and for up to 20 weeks after the last study visit. Of the 120 Japanese patients who entered the reSURFACE 1 extension study, 43 (79.6%) patients receiving tildrakizumab 100 mg and 58 (87.9%) patients receiving tildrakizumab 200 mg completed the extension study. Of all Japanese patients with PASI 75/90/100 and PGA 0/1 at week 64, 85%/88% receiving TIL100/TIL200 maintained PASI 75, 70%/96% maintained PASI 90, 63%/67% maintained PASI 100, and 68%/72% maintained PGA 0/1 at extension week 192. AEs led to discontinuation in 1.7 patients per 100 patient-years (P100PY) receiving tildrakizumab 100 mg and 0.8 P100PY receiving tildrakizumab 200 mg. Incidences of severe infections, malignancies, confirmed major adverse cardiac events, and hypersensitivity reactions were low in both treatment groups. Through 5 years of treatment, tildrakizumab maintained efficacy and was well tolerated with low rates of AEs of special interest.

Project description:BackgroundTildrakizumab is a specific anti-interleukin-23p19 monoclonal antibody approved for the treatment of plaque psoriasis.ObjectivesTo evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of tildrakizumab treatment for patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis for up to 148 weeks.MethodsPooled analysis from two double-blind, randomized controlled trials: reSURFACE 1 and reSURFACE 2. Efficacy was assessed for responders (≥ 75% improvement in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index; PASI 75) and partial responders (PASI 50-75) to tildrakizumab 100 mg and 200 mg at week 28 who were maintained on the same dose (administered every 12 weeks), and for partial responders or nonresponders (PASI < 50) to etanercept 50 mg at week 28 who, after a 4-week washout, were switched to tildrakizumab 200 mg (administered at weeks 32 and 36, and every 12 weeks thereafter). Safety was assessed in the all-patients-as-treated population. Three different methods of imputing missing data were used: nonresponder imputation (NRI), multiple imputation and observed cases. The Clinicaltrials.gov numbers are NCT01722331 (reSURFACE 1) and NCT01729754 (reSURFACE 2).ResultsAt week 148 (NRI), 72·6%, 53·8% and 28·9% of tildrakizumab 100-mg responders and 80·2%, 59·9% and 32·6% of tildrakizumab 200-mg responders had PASI 75, 90 and 100 responses, respectively. For partial responders to tildrakizumab 100 mg and 200 mg, the proportions of patients achieving PASI 75, 90 and 100 responses were 32·5%, 25·0% and 10·0%; and 47·1%, 27·5% and 12·8%, respectively. For patients who were partial responders or nonresponders to etanercept, the proportions of patients achieving PASI 75, 90 and 100 responses were 66·9%, 43·8% and 14·9% at week 148. Rates of discontinuations due to adverse events [tildrakizumab 100 mg: 1·7 per 100 patient-years (PYs); tildrakizumab 200 mg: 1·2 per 100 PYs] and exposure-adjusted rates of serious adverse events (5·9 per 100 PYs; 5·5 per 100 PYs), severe infections (1·1 per 100 PYs; 1·1 per 100 PYs), malignancies (0·6 per 100 PYs; 0·4 per 100 PYs) and major adverse cardiovascular events (0·4 per 100 PYs; 0·5 per 100 PYs) were low.ConclusionsTildrakizumab was well tolerated and efficacy was well maintained in week 28 responders who continued tildrakizumab treatment through 3 years, or improved among etanercept partial responders or nonresponders who switched to tildrakizumab. What's already known about this topic? Tildrakizumab 100 mg and 200 mg are efficacious and well tolerated with short-term use in the treatment of patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. What does this study add? High levels of efficacy are maintained for up to 3 years of psoriasis treatment with tildrakizumab. There is a favourable long-term safety profile with both tildrakizumab 100 mg and 200 mg, with a low incidence of adverse events of special interest through 3 years.

Project description:BackgroundLimited data are available on long-term efficacy and safety of biologics in patients with psoriasis and metabolic syndrome (MetS), a common comorbidity.ObjectivesThis analysis updates tildrakizumab efficacy and safety for up to 5 years in patients with and without MetS.MethodsThis was a post hoc analysis of the double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, phase 3 reSURFACE 1 (NCT01722331) and reSURFACE 2 (NCT01729754) trials in adult patients with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis. Analyses included data through Week 244 from patients who continuously received tildrakizumab 100 (TIL100) or 200 mg (TIL200) and entered the extension studies, stratified by baseline MetS status. Efficacy was assessed via Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) scores. Safety was evaluated from exposure-adjusted incidence rates (EAIRs) of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs).ResultsreSURFACE 1 and reSURFACE 2 analyses included 26 and 44 TIL100-treated patients with MetS, 98 and 167 TIL100-treated patients without MetS, 34 and 30 TIL200-treated patients with MetS, and 111 and 130 TIL200-treated patients without MetS, respectively. There were no clinically relevant differences in PASI 75/90/100 response rates at Week 244 between patients with vs without MetS. The proportion of patients with vs without MetS achieving absolute PASI score <3 at Week 244 was 53.8% vs 69.4% and 77.3% vs 80.8% in reSURFACE 1 and 2, respectively, for TIL100-treated patients and 58.8% vs 72.1% and 63.3% vs 72.3%, respectively, for TIL200-treated patients. In both studies, median reduction from baseline PASI score at all time points in patients with vs without MetS was >83% vs >89% for TIL100 and >85% vs >90% for TIL200. Pooled EAIRs of TEAEs, serious TEAEs, and TEAEs of special interest were similar in patients with and without MetS.ConclusionsTildrakizumab maintains efficacy and a favorable safety profile over 5 years in patients with psoriasis regardless of MetS status.

Project description:BackgroundChronic psoriasis may require medication adjustments over time.ObjectivesTo evaluate the efficacy/safety of tildrakizumab in subgroups from the reSURFACE studies (N = 1862) that received continuous dosing, higher/lower dosing, treatment interruption/reinitiation and initiation.MethodsResponders [Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) ≥ 75%] and partial responders (PASI ≥ 50% to < 75%) in Part 3 of the reSURFACE studies (weeks 28-52 or week 64) who received tildrakizumab 200 mg or 100 mg were rerandomized to the same dosage (T100/T100 or T200/T200), a higher/lower dosage (T100/T200 or T200/T100) or placebo (PBO) (T100/PBO or T200/PBO). Patients receiving PBO who relapsed were reinitiated to tildrakizumab. Etanercept (ETN) week-28 partial responders and nonresponders (PASI < 50%) received tildrakizumab 200 mg (ETN/T200).ResultsAmong T100/T100 and T200/T200 week-28 partial responders, the proportion of patients who achieved as-observed PASI 75 responses increased over time. Among T100/T200 week-28 partial responders, PASI 75 responses increased from week 32 (38·5%) to week 52 (63·2%) and remained consistent in T200/T100 week-28 responders. Among patients who relapsed in the T100/PBO and T200/PBO groups, 86% and 83% of those who reinitiated tildrakizumab achieved PASI 75 by week 64, respectively. Among ETN/T200 week-28 partial responders, PASI 75 responses (nonresponder imputation) increased from week 32 (24·1%) to week 52 (74·7%). PASI 90, PASI 100 and Physician's Global Assessment responses were consistent with PASI 75 results. Treatment was well tolerated.ConclusionsPatients generally fared well with tildrakizumab maintenance, reinitiation, dose adjustment or initiation. What's already known about this topic? Tildrakizumab demonstrated significant efficacy vs. placebo with a positive safety profile during the first 28 weeks of treatment in two randomized double-blind trials. What does this study add? Treatment scenarios with tildrakizumab, such as long-term continuous dosing (up to 64 weeks), treatment interruption/reinitiation and switching from another biologic, can be part of the management of plaque psoriasis with a reasonable expectation of efficacy and tolerability.

Project description:IntroductionTildrakizumab (TIL), a monoclonal antibody that selectively targets interleukin-23p19, has been approved for the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. According to the European Medicines Agency Summary of Product Characteristics, the recommended dose is 100 mg, but a 200 mg dose can be used in patients with certain characteristics, such as a high disease burden or body weight (BW) ≥ 90 kg. Fixed one-dose biological therapies tend to become less effective in patients with high BW. This post-hoc study describes the long-term efficacy of TIL across different BWs in pivotal clinical trials.MethodsA 5-year pooled analysis of two double-blind, randomised, controlled phase III trials-reSURFACE 1 and 2-was performed. Efficacy measures were the proportions of the patients with an absolute Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) of < 3 and < 1 and a Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) of 0/1. The study population included patients randomised to TIL 100 mg or TIL 200 mg who received ≥ 1 TIL dose up to week 12 (part 1 of the trial) or up to week 28 (part 2) and patients who were responders (≥ 75% improvement in PASI) to TIL 100 or TIL 200 mg at week 28 and who were maintained on the same dose up to week 244. Efficacy was evaluated by analysing BW subgroups at weeks 28, 52 and 244. Missing data were analysed using multiple imputation. Safety was assessed in the all-patients-as-treated population.ResultsThe proportions of TIL-treated patients with PASI < 3 and < 1 (up to week 244) and DLQI 0/1 (up to week 52) were similar for patients with BW < 90 or ≥ 90 kg, regardless of dose. Patients ≥ 120 kg had greater efficacy outcomes at the 200 mg dose. Safety outcomes were similar regardless of treatment dose and weight (< 120/≥ 120 kg).ConclusionIn patients with BW ≥ 120 kg, TIL 200 mg is more efficacious than TIL 100 mg, with similar favourable safety profiles obtained regardless of dose and BW group.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov NCT01722331 (reSURFACE 1) and NCT01729754 (reSURFACE 2).
