Effectiveness and Safety of Etanercept in Paediatric Patients with Plaque-Type Psoriasis: Real-World Evidence. J Clin Med 2024; 13:4858. [PMID: 39201000 PMCID: PMC11355138 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13164858] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2024] [Revised: 08/07/2024] [Accepted: 08/15/2024] [Indexed: 09/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: Psoriasis is a chronic, multisystemic, inflammatory disease affecting approximately 1% of children and significantly reducing their health-related quality of life. Etanercept is a biologic fusion protein-blocking TNF-α and belongs to one of the biologics used among the children population. The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness and safety profile of etanercept in paediatric patients with plaque-type psoriasis. Material and methods: The outcome of the treatment was evaluated based on Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI), Body Surface Area (BSA), and Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index (CDLQI). Achievement of at least PASI75 at week 16 was assessed as an adequate response to therapy, which was the primary endpoint. Results: Forty-three paediatric patients were included in the study, 24 females and 19 males. The average age at inclusion into our study was 13 years. At baseline, the mean PASI score, BSA, and CDLQI were 16.3 ± 6.5, 22.3 ± 12.2%, and 17.4 ± 5.3, respectively. At week 16, 90.7% of patients achieved PASI 50, 79.1% achieved PASI 75, and 46.5% attained PASI 90. There was also a decrease in mean BSA and CDLQI values to 3.5 ± 3.8 and 5.4 ± 5.7, respectively. Conclusions: Etanercept proved to be effective, safe, and well-tolerated among the paediatric population with psoriasis.

Abstract
Background and objective Biologics have revolutionized the management of plaque psoriasis and are flourishing. We aimed to construct a knowledge structure in this field through bibliometrics, analyze research trends and cutting-edge hotspots to inspire future research directions, and provide valuable references for clinical decisions. Methods Publications on biologics for plaque psoriasis in the Web of Science database core collection from 2004 to 2023 were searched. Bibliometric analysis and scientific knowledge mapping were performed with R, CiteSpace, and VOSviewer software. Results 2,672 articles written by 9,474 authors from 67 countries were included in the study. The number of annual publications has steadily increased over the last 20 years. The most prolific countries, institutions, and authors were the United States, Novartis, and Prof. Reick K., respectively. Reference analysis categorized the research base of the field into 10 main clusters. "Efficacy" and "safety" were the most frequent keywords, and cluster analysis categorized the research in this area into four groups. Burst detection captured current hot keywords including interleukin (IL)-17 inhibitors, IL-23 inhibitors, "drug survival," "discontinuation," "Covid-19," "real-world," and "clinical features." Conclusion Global publications on biologics research in plaque psoriasis have grown steadily and rapidly over the past two decades. Efficacy and safety are the highest topics of concern for researchers, and IL-17 inhibitors, IL-23 inhibitors, real-world studies, efficacy prediction, and retreatment after biologics failure or discontinuation are current research hotspots.

Abstract
Pediatric psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin condition. Current treatment modalities include topical medications, phototherapy, and systemic drugs, including biological agents. In cases of moderate-to-severe psoriasis recalcitrant to other therapies, biological therapies are often an attractive option given their dosing schedules, safety profiles, and need for less frequent laboratory monitoring, when compared with traditional systemic therapies. This article reviews biological treatment options approved for pediatric psoriasis and identifies others actively under investigation.

Abstract
Background Psoriasis is a chronic, inflammatory skin disease with autoimmune characteristics. Recent research has made significant progress in the field of psoriasis metabolomics. However, there is a lack of bibliometric analysis on metabolomics of psoriasis. The objective of this study is to utilize bibliometrics to present a comprehensive understanding of the knowledge structure and research hotspots in psoriasis within the field of metabolomics. Methods We conducted a bibliometric analysis by searching the Web of Science Core Collection database for publications on metabolomics in psoriasis from 2011 to 2024. To perform this analysis, we utilized tools such as VOSviewers, CiteSpace, and the R package "bibliometrix". Results A total of 307 articles from 47 countries, with the United States and China leading the way, were included in the analysis. The publications focusing on metabolomics in psoriasis have shown a steady year-on-year growth. The Medical University of Bialystok is the main research institution. The International Journal of Molecular Sciences emerges as the prominent journal in the field, while the Journal of Investigative Dermatology stands out as the highly co-cited publication. A total of 2029 authors contributed to these publications, with Skrzydlewska Elzbieta, Baran Anna, Flisiak Iwona, Murakami Makoto being the most prolific contributors. Notably, Armstrong April W. received the highest co-citation. Investigating the mechanisms of metabolomics in the onset and progression of psoriasis, as well as exploring therapeutic strategies, represents the primary focus of this research area. Emerging research hotspots encompass inflammation, lipid metabolism, biomarker, metabolic syndrome, obesity, and arthritis. Conclusion The results of this study indicate that metabolism-related research is thriving in psoriasis, with a focus on the investigation of metabolic targets and interventions within the metabolic processes. Metabolism is expected to be a hot topic in future psoriasis research.

Abstract
Background In contemporary times, malignancies characterized by metastatic growth have been subjected to innovative therapeutic approaches involving immunological agents known as Programmed Death Receptor 1 (PD-1) inhibitors. Notwithstanding their remarkable immunotherapeutic effectiveness, these treatments can give rise to undesirable immune-related effects. Sintilimab, a PD-1 inhibitor sanctioned for marketing by the Chinese National Medical Products Administration in 2018, has been associated with 51 reported cases of adverse reactions on the market, excluding psoriasis, up to the present moment. Case Description Herein, we report the clinical characteristics of a patient with metastatic gastric adenocarcinoma who developed guttate psoriasis after receiving Sintilimab. The patient was an elderly male presenting with papules varying in size from that of rice grains to soybeans, accompanied by scattered erythematous lesions across his body. Notably, an atypical Auspitz's sign was observed, wherein certain lesions were covered with a minimal amount of scale, coupled with reported persistent itching. The progression of the disease manifested within a span of one week. Conclusion PD1 inhibitors have been associated with the recurrence, exacerbation, or new onset of psoriasis. Consequently, a personal or family history of psoriasis is an essential risk factor that needs to be considered before PD1 inhibitor medication, which helps with the early diagnosis of psoriasis. Early diagnosis of new-onset guttate psoriasis poses challenges. An early consultation with a dermatologist is recommended, and a conclusive diagnosis can be obtained through a histopathologic examination.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Palmoplantar plaque psoriasis is a frequent clinical subtype of childhood psoriasis. This study evaluated the effectiveness of biologic therapies in children with palmoplantar plaque psoriasis using data from the two Biological treatments for Pediatric Psoriasis (BiPe) cohorts. METHODS Data for all 170 patients included in the BiPe cohorts were analyzed. Data on the effectiveness (PGA, PASI between baseline and 3 months of treatment) of biologic therapies were then compared between children with palmoplantar plaque psoriasis (n = 20) and those with generalized plaque psoriasis (n = 136). Clinical and demographic data were also analyzed. RESULTS Children in the palmoplantar group were more likely to be male (p = .04), with an earlier age of psoriasis onset (p < .001), and more frequent nail involvement (p < .001). After 3 months of biologic treatment, mean PGA scores were higher in the palmoplantar group than in the generalized plaque psoriasis group (p = .004). In the palmoplantar group, continuation rates were higher for adalimumab than for etanercept or ustekinumab (p = .01). Primary inefficacy was a more frequent reason for stopping biologic therapies in the palmoplantar group (p = .01), and disease remission was less frequent (p = .05). Combined systemic and biologic therapies were more frequently used in palmoplantar plaque psoriasis (p < .001). CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated the treatment-resistant nature of palmoplantar plaque psoriasis and indicated that adalimumab could be the most effective biologic treatment. Larger studies are needed to allow therapeutic algorithms for palmoplantar plaque psoriasis to be proposed in pediatric psoriasis management guidelines.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Psoriasis is a multifactorial, immune-mediated condition with predominant skin involvement. It may develop at any age. In one-third of patients, the first symptoms of psoriasis start during childhood or adolescence. A marked impairment of the quality of life of patients and their caregivers is often associated. AREAS COVERED Databases including PubMed and Clinicaltrials.gov were used to identify clinical studies involving pediatric patients with psoriasis. In the last few years, the implementation of therapy with drugs targeting cytokines like interleukin (IL)-12/23 and IL-17A has expanded the number of available therapeutic options in pediatric psoriasis. This review focuses on the latest evidence on the clinical efficacy and safety profile of drugs licensed for severe pediatric psoriasis. EXPERT OPINION Increasing knowledge about the pathogenetic mechanisms underlying pediatric psoriasis is leading to an improvement in disease management. Effective treatment is crucial in patients affected with moderate to severe disease to reduce the burden of the disease and avoid stigmatization. The treatment of pediatric psoriasis remains challenging for specific clinical subtypes, when difficult areas are involved, after resistance to multiple treatments, and when psoriatic arthritis is associated. A personalized approach and a thorough understanding of the disease are required to advance pediatric psoriasis care.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder with a chronic relapsing course. Biologics have revolutionized the treatment of adult psoriasis with higher efficacy and favorable safety profile. Recently, more studies have focused on the use of biologics in pediatric psoriasis, and several biologics have been approved for use therein. This review is divided into two sections: the first part focuses on real-world studies on the use of biologics in pediatric psoriasis and the second part summarizes the findings of other clinical trials related to biologics in pediatric psoriasis. Case reports have been excluded from this review. Several biologics were used for treating pediatric psoriasis and the efficacy is encouraging. According to the studies included in this review, anti-IL-12/23 and anti-IL-17A for treating pediatric psoriasis might have a better efficacy than anti-TNF-α, but more data are needed.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Psoriasis management is challenging, especially in pediatric age for different factors. The introduction of biologic drugs and oral small molecules (OSM) revolutionized the armamentarium of available weapons in psoriasis treatment. Despite the use of these drugs in adult patients has been widely investigated, pediatric patients have often been unconsidered in clinical trials and real-life studies. However, the high efficacy and speed of action, the safety profile and the ease-to-use administration make these innovative drugs an invaluable therapeutic opportunity. AREAS COVERED The aim of this manuscript is to perform a review of the current literature examining data on the effectiveness and safety of biologic drugs and OSM for the management of psoriasis in pediatric patients in order to put the basis for universally shared treatment algorithm following available evidence. PRISMA (preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses) guidelines were used for the literature research. EXPERT OPINION/COMMENTARY Our review based on currently available evidence suggests biologics and OSM as an ideal treatment option for pediatric patients, with an excellent profile in terms of efficacy and safety as compared to traditional systemic drugs.

Abstract
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic, recurrent, inflammatory skin disease of the apocrine glands. It typically involves the axillary, submammary, genital, inguinal, perineal, and perianal regions. The development of abscesses, sinus tracts, and scars can lead to pain, scarring, disfigurement and decreased quality of life. HS is associated with a wide range of comorbidities. Several studies of co-occurrence of HS and nonmelanoma skin cancer suggest a causal relationship. In an attempt to assess the link between HS and cancer, we performed a systematic review of the current scientific knowledge through a PubMed-based literature search. Results show that HS could be associated with an overall risk of cancer and numerous specific cancers such as: nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC), hematologic malignancies, and metastatic cancer. Among NMSC, squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is considered the most common complication arising in long-standing HS. Based on our review, we suggest that cautious surveillance and active intervention may be warranted in patients with HS. Moreover, an age-appropriate cancer screening should be offered to all patients, especially those who developed HS later in their life or in long-standing moderate to severe HS with multiple comorbidities.

[PMID: 34829740 PMCID: PMC8615182 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines9111511] [Citation(s) in RCA: 44] [Impact Index Per Article: 14.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2021] [Revised: 10/10/2021] [Accepted: 10/17/2021] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Psoriasis is an immune-mediated inflammatory disease, with a chronic relapsing-remitting course, which affects 2–3% of the worldwide population. The progressive acquisitions of the inflammatory pathways involved in the development of psoriasis have led to the identification of the key molecules of the psoriatic inflammatory cascade. At the same time, psoriasis therapy has radically evolved with the introduction of target molecules able to modify the natural history of the disease, acting specifically on these inflammatory pathways. For these reasons, biologics have been demonstrated to be drugs able to change the disease’s natural history, as they reduce the inflammatory background to avoid irreversible organ damage and prevent systemic complications. However, several issues related to the use of biologics in patients with systemic comorbidities, remain open. All these data reflect the extraordinary potentiality of biologics, but also the unmet medical need to improve our knowledge on the long-term risk related to continuous use of these drugs, and their administration in special populations. This narrative review aims to highlight both the efficacy and safety profile of biologics in psoriasis, starting from pathophysiology and moving towards their clinical application.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Psoriasis affects around 2% of children in Europe. The majority of cases is readily managed with topical treatments using corticosteroids without or with calcipotriol. More resistant and extensive moderate-to-severe cases require UVA or UVB phototherapies or conventional systemic treatment including ciclosporin, acitretin and methotrexate. However, these therapies are associated with a low tolerability and potential cumulative long-term adverse effects and toxicities. AREAS COVERED About 15 years ago, the first biological appeared for the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque type psoriasis in adult patients. Several years later, the first biologic treatment to be approved in children was etanercept, a soluble receptor that binds both tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and β followed by adalimumab, a monoclonal antibody against TNF-α, and currently by ustekinumab, a monoclonal IL12/23 p40 antagonist and, very recently, secukinumab and ixekizumab, both IL17 antagonists. All these biologic treatments brought significantly improved treatment results compared to light-based therapies and conventional treatments and present very good tolerance and safety profiles. EXPERT OPINION Due to their excellent efficacy and safety profiles ustekinumab, secukinumab and ixekizumab could currently be considered as a first-line treatment options for moderate-to-severe childhood and adolescent psoriasis requiring a systemic treatment.

Abstract
The emergence of data from clinical trials of biologics, the approval of new biologics, and our improved understanding of psoriasis pathogenesis have increased the therapeutic possibilities for the treatment of moderate-to-severe psoriasis. Biologics currently approved for the treatment of psoriasis include tumor necrosis factor inhibitors, interleukin (IL)-17 inhibitors, ustekinumab (an IL-12/23 inhibitor), and IL-23 inhibitors. Data from clinical trials and studies of the safety and efficacy of biologics provide essential information for the personalization of patient care. We discuss the benefits and disadvantages of biologics as a first-line treatment choice, update treatment recommendations according to current evidence, and propose psoriasis treatment algorithms. Our discussion includes the following comorbid conditions: psoriatic arthritis, multiple sclerosis, congestive heart failure, inflammatory bowel disease, hepatitis B, nonmelanoma skin cancer, lymphoma, and latent tuberculosis. We make evidence-based treatment recommendations for special populations, including pediatric patients, patients with coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19), and pregnant and breastfeeding patients with psoriasis. Ultimately, individualized recommendations that consider patient preferences, disease severity, comorbid conditions, and additional risk factors should be offered to patients and updated as new trial data emerges.

Abstract
Cancer is one of the several comorbidities that have been linked with chronic cutaneous inflammatory diseases namely psoriasis/psoriatic arthritis and hidradenitis suppurativa. Although the chronic inflammatory state, typical of the diseases, may induce pro-tumorigenic effects, the debate whether or not the drugs currently used in clinical practice do in facts increase a patient's risk of malignancy remains largely unsolved. The therapeutic armamentarium has been greatly enhanced at least in the last two decades with the advent of biologics, a heterogeneous group of laboratory-engineered agents with more in the pipeline, and other targeted small molecules. Among the organ systems, skin results as one of the most commonly affected, non-melanoma skin cancers being the main drug-induced manifestations as side effect in course of these treatments. The objective of the study is to systematically review the cutaneous malignancy risk of the newer therapies through an overview of meta-analyses and observational studies on the topic.

Abstract
Psoriasis is an inflammatory immune-mediated skin disease that affects both adults and children. Increased understanding of its pathogenesis has led to the development of highly effective therapeutic solutions in the form of biological drugs for adult patients with severe forms of the disease. The unpredictability of the action of adult-approved drugs in pediatric populations limited their usage in these patients for several years. However, this scenario has been changing, particularly in the last decade, increasing our knowledge of the clinical efficacy and safety of these drugs in pediatric populations. The approval/extensions to approvals of several biological agents throughout the year 2020 makes it important to update the topic. Five biological agents (etanercept, adalimumab, ustekinumab, secukinumab, and ixekizumab) have been approved by the European Medicines Agency for the treatment of psoriasis in pediatric populations, and three of them (etanercept, ustekinumab, and ixekizumab) were also approved by the US FDA for the same purpose. In total, 17 clinical trials of several distinct targeted therapies (tumor necrosis factor, interleukin [IL]-17 and IL-23, and phosphodiesterase-4 inhibitors) are ongoing in pediatric patients and will certainly provide crucial data on the subject, which could ultimately improve the armamentarium we have to target psoriasis in this special population.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Psoriasis affects about 0.5% of children and adolescents, it has a high impact of social life. Management can be difficult. The beginning of the 21st century has been an interesting period for the management of pediatric psoriasis, with access to new topical and systemic treatments including several biotherapies. AREAS COVERED Herein, we analyze the current therapeutic strategies for managing psoriasis in young patients, ranging from infants to adolescents, in a holistic approach. Usual treatment but also new galenics, new topical associations, and biological (anti-TNF-alpha, anti-interleukin 12/23, anti-interleukin 17) recently developed are presented. Results from clinical trials are detailed, but also real-world evaluations, and recent guidelines. Practical tips for day-to-day management are finally proposed. EXPERT OPINION Currently, we have a wide range of treatments, which we can adapt to all types of psoriasis, depending on the demands of the child and his parents. The near future also looks promising with new topical combinations, new oral therapies (apremilast) and biologics (anti-interleukin 23), as well as genetically targeted therapies for pustular psoriasis.

Abstract
The advent of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors (ICIs) as a standard of care for several cancers, including melanoma and head/neck squamous cell carcinoma has changed the therapeutic approach to these conditions, drawing at the same time the attention on some safety issues related to their use. To assess the incidence of psoriasis as a specific immune-related cutaneous adverse event attributing to ICIs using the Eudravigilance reporting system. All reports of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) concerning either exacerbation of psoriasis or de novo onset of psoriasis/psoriasiform reactions associated to the use of Cytotoxic T-Lymphocyte Antigen-4 (CTLA-4) inhibitors ipilimumab and tremelimumab, and the Programmed cell Death protein 1/Programmed Death-Ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) inhibitors nivolumab, pembrolizumab, atezolizumab, durvalumab, avelumab, and cemiplimab were identified and extracted from the Eudravigilance reporting system, during the period between the date of market licensing (for each study drug) and 30 October 2020. 8213 reports of cutaneous ADRs associated with at least one of study drug have been recorded, of which 315 (3.8%) reporting psoriasis and/or psoriasiform reactions as ADR. In 70.8% of reports patients had pre-existing disease. ICIs-related skin toxicity is a well-established phenomenon, presenting with several conditions, sustained by an immune background based on the activity of some cells (CD4+/CD8+ T-cells, neutrophils, eosinophils, and plasmocytes), inflammatory mediators, chemokines, and tumor-specific antibodies. In this setting, psoriasis represents probably the most paradigmatic model of these reactions, thus requiring adequate recognition as no guidelines on management are now available.

Abstract
Importance Few studies have compared the use of methotrexate and biologics, the most commonly used systemic medications for treatment of moderate to severe psoriasis in children. Objective To assess the real-world, 6-month reduction in psoriasis severity and long-term drug survival (rate and duration of adherence to a specific drug) of methotrexate vs biologics in plaque psoriasis in children. Design, Setting, and Participants A retrospective medical records review was conducted at 20 European and North American centers. Treatment response was based on site-reported Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) and/or Physician Global Assessment (PGA) scores at baseline and within the first 6 months of treatment. Participants included all 234 consecutively seen children with moderate to severe psoriasis who received at least 3 months of methotrexate or biologics from December 1, 1990, to September 16, 2014, with sufficient data for analysis. Data analysis was performed from December 14, 2015, to September 1, 2016. Main Outcomes and Measures PASI, with a range from 0 to 72 (highest score indicating severe psoriasis), and/or PGA, with a scale of 0 (clear), 1 (minimal), 2 (mild), 3 (moderate), 4 (severe), and 5 (very severe). Results Of 234 pediatric patients (103 boys [44.0%]; 131 girls [56.0%]) treated with methotrexate and/or biologics, 163 patients (69.7%) exclusively received methotrexate, 47 patients (20.1%) exclusively received biologics, and 24 children (10.2%) received methotrexate and biologics sequentially. Of the latter cohort, 23 children were treated initially with methotrexate. Mean (SD) age at initiation was 11.6 (3.7) years for methotrexate and 13.3 (2.9) years for biologics (73.2% for etanercept) (P = .002). Among patients evaluated by a scoring method at 6-month follow-up, 75% or greater improvement in PASI (PASI75) was achieved in 12 of 30 patients (40.0%) receiving methotrexate and 20 of 28 patients (71.4%) receiving biologics, and PGA was clear/almost clear (PGA 0/1) in 41 of 115 patients (35.6%) receiving methotrexate and 18 of 37 patients (48.6%) receiving biologics. Achieving PASI75 and/or PGA 0/1 between baseline and 6 months was more likely with biologics than methotrexate (PASI75: odds ratio [OR], 4.56; 95% CI, 2.02-10.27; P < .001; and PGA 0/1: OR, 2.00; 95% CI, 0.98-4.00; P = .06). Decreased mean PASI and PGA scores were associated with biologics more than with methotrexate (PASI effect, -3.13; 95% CI, -4.33 to -1.94; P < .001; and PGA effect, -0.31; 95% CI, -0.56 to -0.06; P = .02). After 1, 3, and 5 years of use, overall drug survival rates for methotrexate were 77.5%, 50.3%, and 35.9%, and for biologics, the rates were 83.4%, 64.3%, and 57.1%, respectively. Biologics were associated with a better confounder-corrected drug survival than methotrexate (hazard ratio [HR], 2.23; 95% CI, 1.21-4.10; P = .01). Discontinuation owing to lack of response was comparable (HR, 1.64; 95% CI, 0.80-3.36; P = .18). Conclusions and Relevance Methotrexate and biologics appear to be associated with improvement in pediatric psoriasis, although biologics seem to be associated with greater reduction in psoriasis severity scores and higher drug survival rates than methotrexate in the real-world setting. Additional studies directly comparing these medications should be performed for confirmation.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic immune-mediated disease characterized by inflammation of skin (psoriasis) or joints (psoriatic arthritis) or both, resulting from a dysregulation in particular of the T helper (Th)17 functions. There is no available cure for psoriasis, and a life-long treatment is needed to control signs and symptoms. Research interest is high around the newest biological drugs approved for the treatment of moderate to severe psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis, and especially drugs blocking the IL-23/IL-17 axis. Our aim is to review the new biological drugs for the treatment of psoriasis and their adverse effects, focusing on the risk of infections.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic immune-mediated skin disorder. Due to lack of clarity in its pathogenesis, a cure with existing treatment is a big challenge. Biologics, a revolutionary treatment, are potent immunomodulators that explicitly target the culprit cells of the immune system to achieve the maximum level of Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score (75 to 90) and clear or almost clear skin in moderate to severe psoriasis. They have been a successful therapy in adult severe psoriasis for a decade. In recent years, biologics have unprecedently sought the attention of the pediatric psoriatic population by proving an efficacious and safe option. The aim of the study is to provide a systematic review of efficacy, safety, and impact on the quality of life of Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved biologics, namely etanercept and ustekinumab, and their use as a "first-line systemic therapy" in the moderate to severe pediatric and adolescent psoriatic population. We explored PubMed, Cochrane Library, Google Scholar, American Academy of Dermatology website, ClinicalTrials.gov, the FDA site, and the National Psoriasis Foundation USA site as major database searches. Psoriasis, pediatric, etanercept, and ustekinumab were keywords used to find the relevant literature. Clinical trials and observational studies were retrieved and analyzed to assess the efficacy and safety of FDA-approved biologics as first-line systemic therapy in pediatric psoriasis. The relevant evidence-based studies and the Joint American Academy of Dermatology-National Psoriasis Foundation (AAD-NPF) guideline have shown that etanercept and ustekinumab biologics are significantly effective and safe systemic therapies in dealing with moderate to severe psoriasis in pediatric and adolescent patients and have unprecedently improved their quality of life. Thus, they can be confidently considered as first-line systemic therapy in moderate to severe pediatric and adolescent psoriatic patients by applying the specific criteria and proper monitoring. However, health practitioners and dermatologists must educate pediatric patients and their caretakers about their adverse effects, success/failure chance, careful monitoring, and follow-up plan to achieve the desired result.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF) inhibitors have had a significant impact in medicine since the approval of the first drug of its class by the US FDA in 1998. New clinical data and indications have emerged for TNF inhibitors in recent years. Currently, four TNF inhibitors have been approved by the US FDA for dermatology, two of which include US FDA-approved pediatric use. In particular, growing evidence supports the use of etanercept and adalimumab as attractive therapies for pediatric psoriasis. Data for use of etanercept in treating toxic epidermal necrolysis and either etanercept or infliximab for Kawasaki disease is expanding. In addition, there have been clinical reports on the use of TNF inhibitors to treat a variety of other pediatric dermatologic conditions. To help clinicians keep pace with the new data provided by many pediatric dermatology studies involving TNF inhibitors, this review provides an overview of the use of TNF inhibitors in the treatment of pediatric plaque psoriasis, hidradenitis suppurativa, atopic dermatitis, pyoderma gangrenosum, toxic epidermal necrolysis, and Kawasaki disease. For TNF inhibitors with little data in the pediatric population, data on adult use is discussed. Furthermore, the review summarizes available clinical data on efficacy, safety, and tolerability of agents currently available.

From regulatory limitations to new opportunities: Real-life experience on the effectiveness of short courses of omalizumab in the treatment of chronic idiopatic urticaria.

Abstract
Economic sustainability of long-term continuous treatment of antihistamine refractory chronic urticaria with omalizumab may be an issue. We assessed the efficacy of relatively short courses (5-6 months) of omalizumab in patients with chronic idiopathic urticaria (CIU). We retrospectively studied 40 patients (observed between June 2015 and January 2019) affected by moderate-to-severe CIU refractory to anti-H1 antihistamines (up to fourfold doses). Omalizumab was administered every 4 weeks for 24 weeks, then for 20 weeks in case of a relapse of moderate-to-severe degree, then again for 24 weeks in case of a second relapse. Monthly clinical evaluations were performed. Mean disease severity significantly dropped after 1 month and further decreased thereafter, with 30 complete remissions after the first course of treatment. In 2-4 months, 18 patients had a relapse of moderate-to-severe degree. The profile of response to the second course of omalizumab was similar to the first. A third course was necessary for seven patients. No adverse effects were recorded. Courses of 5-6 months of omalizumab may induce rapid significant improvement of urticaria and many prolonged complete remissions. In case of relapse, further courses show a similar profile of response and may induce additional long-term complete remissions.

IL-1β, IL-17A and combined phototherapy predicts higher while previous systemic biologic treatment predicts lower treatment response to etanercept in psoriasis patients. Inflammopharmacology 2018; 27:57-66.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to explore the correlation of circulating inflammatory cytokines' levels with treatment response to etanercept (ETN) treatment in psoriasis patients. METHODS 97 moderate-to-severe plaque-psoriasis patients were continuously recruited in this prospective cohort study, and all patients received ETN treatment. Serum samples were collected before and at 6 months (M6) after treatment, and nine inflammatory cytokines expressions were detected by enzyme-linked immuno sorbent assay. Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score was evaluated at baseline (M0), 1 month (M1), 3 months (M3) and M6 after treatment, and the corresponding PASI 75/90 responses' rates were calculated. RESULTS Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-12, IL-17A, IL-22, IL-23, and IL-32 levels were reduced, while IL-10 level was elevated at M6 after ETN treatment compared to baseline. PASI 75/90 responses' rates to ETN were 69.1 and 38.1% at M6, respectively. IL-1β and IL-17A levels were elevated in PASI 75-response patients compared to PASI 75 non-response patients, while IL-17A level was also increased in PASI 90-response patients compared to PASI 90 non-response patients. Multivariate logistic regression revealed that IL-1β, IL-17A and combined phototherapy during study predicted higher, while previous systemic biologic treatment predicted lower PASI 75 response to ETN independently. In addition, IL-17A independently predicted higher PASI 90 response to ETN as well. CONCLUSIONS IL-1β, IL-17A, and combined phototherapy predicts higher while previous systemic biologic treatment predicts lower treatment response to ETN independently in psoriasis patients.
