Secukinumab treatment showed improved quality of life in patients with chronic plaque psoriasis in Australia: Results from the HOPE study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Psoriasis imposes a disease burden that can have a profound negative impact on patients' quality of life (QoL). HOPE was the first non-interventional study conducted in patients with severe chronic plaque psoriasis in Australia that evaluated health-related QoL in response to treatment with secukinumab.

Methods

HOPE was a prospective, open-label, single-arm, multicentre, non-interventional, exploratory study in patients with severe chronic plaque psoriasis in Australia. The study investigated the change in QoL, using the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI), Assessment Quality of Life-8 Dimension questionnaire (AQoL-8D) and Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI), and safety profile in response to treatment with secukinumab 300 mg SC weekly for 4 weeks followed by monthly maintenance for 58 weeks.

Results

At Week 14, the mean percentage reduction in total DLQI score from baseline was -82.4% (n = 65), which indicates a substantial improvement in QoL. This level of improvement was sustained up to Week ≥58, with a mean percentage change of -87.4%. The mean percentage change from baseline for AQoL-8D weighted total score decreased from Week 14 (41.1%) to Week 58 (35.2%), indicating an improvement in patients' QoL. A high proportion of patients achieved PASI 75/90/100 responses at Week 14 (97.0%/71.2%/34.8%), with rates sustained up to Week ≥58 (100%/87.9%/43.1%). The safety profile of secukinumab was favourable, with no cumulative or unexpected safety concerns.

Conclusion

Secukinumab treatment demonstrated a striking improvement in patients' QoL in the HOPE study, the first real-world study in patients with severe chronic plaque psoriasis in the Australian clinical setting.

Project description:BackgroundPsoriasis is associated with metabolic, liver and cardiovascular comorbidity. Secukinumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody that selectively neutralizes interleukin-17A, has shown significant and sustained efficacy in the treatment of moderate to severe psoriasis.ObjectivesThis was an exploratory post hoc analysis of pooled data from three phase 3 studies in plaque psoriasis patient populations. The objective was to show the course of metabolic and liver parameters under secukinumab, etanercept or placebo treatment over time. A further objective was to assess the impact of selected comorbidities and metabolic characteristics on high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), as a surrogate marker of systemic inflammation.MethodsData from the phase 3 randomized controlled trials [FIXTURE (NCT01358578), ERASURE (NCT01365455) and SCULPTURE (NCT01406938); n = 3010] were included in this analysis. Patients were treated with secukinumab 150 mg or 300 mg, placebo or etanercept 50 mg (FIXTURE only) as active comparator. A set of metabolic and liver parameters was longitudinally assessed over 52 weeks. Multivariate regression analyses assessed the impact of selected comorbidities and metabolic characteristics on hs-CRP levels at baseline and under treatment.ResultsSecukinumab treatment reduced hs-CRP levels. Body weight and uric acid levels tended to decrease over 52 weeks with secukinumab. Secukinumab showed a neutral effect on fasting plasma glucose, lipid parameters and liver enzymes. Psoriatic arthritis, metabolic syndrome, obesity, impaired glucose metabolism, and hyperuricemia were each associated with increased hs-CRP levels at baseline. Concomitant obesity attenuated the decline in hs-CRP under treatment.ConclusionsThese analyses suggest neutral to favourable long-term trends in metabolic and liver parameters under secukinumab treatment. Metabolic comorbidities were associated with increased hs-CRP levels, reflecting the role of systemic inflammatory processes in their pathophysiology.

Project description:IntroductionSecukinumab, a fully human anti-interleukin-17A monoclonal antibody, has demonstrated superior efficacy to ustekinumab in the phase 3b CLEAR study of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. Here, we report 16-week results from CLARITY, a second head-to-head trial comparing secukinumab with ustekinumab.MethodsIn the phase 3b CLARITY study, patients were randomized 1:1 to receive subcutaneous secukinumab 300 mg or ustekinumab per label. The co-primary objectives were to demonstrate the superiority of secukinumab over ustekinumab at Week 12 in relation to the proportion of patients with (1) 90% or more improvement from baseline Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI 90) and (2) a score of 0/1 (clear/almost clear) on the modified Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA mod 2011 0/1). Key secondary objectives were also assessed, as was Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) 0/1 (no impact of skin disease on patients' quality of life) response. Missing values were handled by multiple imputation except for DLQI 0/1, where last observation carried forward techniques were utilized.ResultsBoth co-primary objectives were met: secukinumab was superior to ustekinumab for the proportion of patients achieving a PASI 90 (66.5% vs. 47.9%) and IGA mod 2011 0/1 response (72.3% vs. 55.4%) at Week 12 (p < 0.0001). PASI 90 responses were greater with secukinumab compared to ustekinumab from as early as Week 4 (16.7% vs. 4.0%) and out to Week 16 (76.6% vs. 54.2%). Similarly, IGA mod 2011 0/1 findings were greater with secukinumab at Week 4 (26.9% vs. 7.8%) and at Week 16 (78.6% vs. 59.1%). DLQI 0/1 response rates were also greater with secukinumab compared to ustekinumab at Week 4 (33.9% vs. 18.0%), Week 12 (64.0% vs. 51.7%), and Week 16 (68.4% vs. 55.9%).ConclusionThe results of this study confirm the superior efficacy of secukinumab over ustekinumab in treating patients with moderate to severe psoriasis.Trial registrationClinicaltrials.gov Identifier, NCT02826603.FundingNovartis Pharma AG, Basel, Switzerland.

Project description:BackgroundPsoriasis is a chronic systemic inflammatory disease, and hyperuricemia is a common comorbidity in patients with psoriasis. However, there are limited reports on the relationship between serum uric acid levels and biological treatment efficacy. The purposes of this study were to compare the differences in serum uric acid levels between patients with psoriasis and healthy controls and analyze the risk of hyperuricemia.MethodsA total of 196 patients with psoriasis and 191 age- and sex-matched healthy controls were enrolled in this retrospective cohort study. One hundred and twenty-seven patients with severe psoriasis were treated with biologics. Sixty-eight patients received adalimumab, and 59 patients received secukinumab. Serum uric acid levels were measured at baseline, week 24, and week 48 of treatment.ResultsPatients with psoriasis had higher serum uric acid levels than healthy controls (6.4 ± 1.7 mg/dL vs. 5.7 ± 1.5 mg/dL, P < 0.001). Hyperuricemia was found in 33.7% (66/196) of patients with psoriasis, which was significantly higher than that in healthy controls (13.1% [25/191], P < 0.001). Serum uric acid levels and hyperuricemia were not related to the severity of psoriasis ( P > 0.05). No significant changes in serum uric acid levels and hyperuricemia were observed following adalimumab treatment ( P > 0.05). The serum uric acid level in patients treated with secukinumab was 6.7 ± 1.6 mg/dL at week 24, which was not statistically different from that at baseline (6.6 ± 1.4 mg/dL, P = 0.885). Serum uric acid levels were significantly decreased at week 48 (6.3 ± 1.5 mg/dL vs. 6.6 ± 1.4 mg/dL, P = 0.007) in patients treated with secukinumab. Secukinumab had no significant effect on hyperuricemia either ( P > 0.05).ConclusionsThe serum uric acid levels and prevalence of hyperuricemia in patients with psoriasis were significantly higher than those in healthy controls. Secukinumab treatment for 48 weeks successfully decreased serum uric acid levels in patients with psoriasis, whereas adalimumab had no significant effect on serum uric acid levels.
