Abstract
INTRODUCTION Despite the availability of several treatments for psoriasis (PsO), factors influencing the persistence of secukinumab (SEC) therapy remain inadequately understood. This study aimed to identify predictors of SEC persistence in PsO. METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted on 109 PsO patients who received SEC treatment at least 1 year. Patients were categorized based on continued or discontinued SEC therapy. RESULTS Among the 109 patients, 64 continued SEC treatment while 45 discontinued. Univariate analysis demonstrated that PsA presence and previous biologic therapy use increased the risk of SEC discontinuation 3.56- and 2.33-fold (p = 0.001, %95 CI: 1.66-7.65 and p = 0.032, %95 CI: 1.08-5.04, respectively). Additionally, the risk of SEC discontinuation is 57% higher in patients with a body mass index (BMI) above 26.5 compared to those with a BMI below 26.5 (p = 0.016, %95 CI: 0.22-0.85). Additionally, patients with PsO onset age below 26.5 years were found to have a 2.93-times higher risk of discontinuing SEC compared to those with PsO onset age above 26.5 years (p = 0.004, %95 CI: 1.40-6.13). CONCLUSION PsA presence, previous biologic therapy experience, BMI, and PsO onset age were identified as independent predictors of SEC discontinuation. These findings underscore the importance of personalized treatment strategies for PsO patients receiving SEC therapy.

Drugs 2024; 84:565-578. [PMID: 38630365 PMCID: PMC11190018 DOI: 10.1007/s40265-024-02028-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 03/25/2024] [Indexed: 06/22/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The most recently approved biologics for moderate-to-severe psoriasis are the interleukin (IL)-17 and IL-23 inhibitors. Drug survival is a frequently used outcome to assess drug performance in practice. An overview of the available drug survival studies regarding IL-17 and IL-23 inhibitors is lacking. Therefore, our objective was to assess the drug survival of IL-17 and IL-23 inhibitors for psoriasis. METHODS A search of PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library and Web of Science was conducted (last search 27 December, 2023). Inclusion criteria were (1) cohort study; (2) patients aged ≥ 18 years with plaque psoriasis; and (3) evaluation of drug survival of at least one of the IL-17 and IL-23 inhibitors. Exclusion criteria were: primary focus on patients with psoriatic arthritis, fewer than ten study subjects and another language than English. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses reporting guideline was followed. Survival probabilities at monthly intervals were extracted from Kaplan-Meier curves using a semi-automated tool. Data were pooled using a non-parametric random-effects model to retrieve distribution-free summary survival curves. Summary drug survival curves were constructed per biologic for different discontinuation reasons: overall, ineffectiveness and adverse events, and split for the effect modifier biologic naivety. Results were analysed separately for registry/electronic health record data and for pharmacy/claims data. RESULTS A total of 69 studies aggregating drug survival outcomes of 48,704 patients on secukinumab, ixekizumab, brodalumab, guselkumab, risankizumab, and tildrakizumab were included. Summary drug survival estimates of registry/electronic health record studies for overall, ineffectiveness and adverse event related drug survival were high (all point estimates ≥ 0.8 at year 1) for included biologics, with highest estimates for guselkumab and risankizumab. All estimates for drug survival were higher in biologic naive than in experienced patients. Estimates of pharmacy/claims databases were substantially lower than estimates from the primary analyses based on registry/electronic health record data. CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis showed that the investigated IL-17 and IL-23 inhibitors had high drug survival rates, with highest rates for guselkumab and risankizumab drug survival. We showed that effect modifiers such as biologic naivety, and the source of data used (registry/electronic health record data vs pharmacy/claims databases) is relevant when interpreting drug survival studies.

Abstract
Background Secukinumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody, was approved in Korea for the treatment of moderate to severe psoriasis in September 2015. Objectives To assess the safety and effectiveness of secukinumab in patients with moderate to severe psoriasis in Korea. Design Multicenter, real-world, noninterventional study conducted over 6 years. Methods Adults with moderate to severe psoriasis were enrolled. Safety was assessed by evaluating adverse events (AEs), treatment-related AEs, and serious AEs (SAEs). Effectiveness was assessed using the change in absolute Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score, percentage of patients achieving PASI 75/90/100 and PASI ⩽2; at weeks 12 and 24. Results Overall, 829 and 542 patients were included in the safety and effectiveness sets, respectively. AEs, treatment-related AEs, and SAEs occurred in 29.0%, 9.5%, and 4.1% of patients, with incidence rates of 39.43, 12.98, and 5.59 per 100 patient years, respectively. The absolute PASI score decreased from 16.1 ± 7.1 (baseline) to 1.6 ± 2.4 (week 24), with a similar reduction in biologic-naïve (16.4 ± 7.3 to 1.5 ± 2.2) and biologic-experienced (14.8 ± 5.9 to 2.4 ± 3.2) groups. At week 24, PASI 75/90/100 was achieved by 95.1%, 62.4%, and 24.9% of patients. At week 24, PASI 75/90 were higher in biologic-naïve (96.6%/65.8%) than biologic-experienced patients (88.3%/48.6%), whereas PASI 100 was similar in both cohorts (24.1% and 28.6%). A similar trend in PASI ⩽ 2 was observed in both cohorts. Conclusion Secukinumab showed sustained effectiveness and favorable safety profile in adult patients with moderate to severe psoriasis in Korea.

Abstract
Objective Cardiometabolic risk factors have been shown to decrease biologic efficacy in patients treated for inflammatory conditions. The purpose of this systematic review is to provide a qualitative evaluation of studies investigating biologic response among psoriasis patients with cardiometabolic comorbidities. Methods A comprehensive review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Guidelines for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis guidelines to screen for studies including patients with cardiometabolic risk factors receiving biologic therapy for psoriasis. Studies not including a Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score to evaluate treatment outcomes were not included. All studies underwent quality/bias analysis using the Methodological Index for Non-Randomized Studies (MINORS) scale. Results Obesity and Body Mass Index (BMI) were the most studied cardiometabolic risk factors. The majority of the studies reported a lower frequency of achieving PASI75 and PASI90 response with increasing BMI/obesity rates. Diabetes and hypertension showed similar findings but were not studied as frequently. Hyperlipidemia and other lipid disorders were less frequently studied. Conclusion Relationships between cardiometabolic risk factors and lower frequencies of achieving PASI75/90 exist in current literature. This qualitative systematic review reports evidence of lower PASI75 and PASI90 response rates in the presence of cardiometabolic risk factors.

[PMID: 37474877 DOI: 10.1111/exd.14890] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2023] [Revised: 06/19/2023] [Accepted: 07/09/2023] [Indexed: 07/22/2023]
Abstract
A number of randomized controlled trials and real-world studies have demonstrated the effectiveness and safety of secukinumab in the treatment of moderate to severe psoriasis, whereas data on a large cohort of Chinese patients in long-term real-world practice are limited. This was a single-centre, uncontrolled, single-arm, prospective, observational cohort study that included 254 psoriatic patients treated with secukinumab between September 2019 and December 2022. Demographic and clinical characteristics of patients, clinical response and adverse events were evaluated. The 75% improvement in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index score (PASI 75), PASI 90, and PASI 100 in the 300 mg secukinumab group at 12 weeks were 91.7%, 74.0% and 39.7% respectively, increasing to 94.5%, 74.5% and 47.6% at 52 weeks. High body mass index (BMI), previous exposure to biologic therapies and history of previous conventional systemic therapies were associated with lower rates of PASI response. During the study period, 68 patients reported 83 adverse events (AEs) and the most frequent AEs were eczematous lesions. Up to 14.5% patients withdrew treatment due to disease remission combined with inconvenient transportation during the COVID-19 pandemic at 52 weeks. The rate of psoriasis exacerbation after COVID-19 infection in patients treated with secukinumab was 24.3% (17/70). This real-world study confirmed the high effectiveness of secukinumab in Chinese patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis, with an acceptable safety profile.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Significant advances in psoriasis treatment have taken place since the introduction of biologics. Tumor necrosis factor inhibitors were the first class of biologics approved and at that time greatly improved psoriasis treatment. However, newer biologics, directed to interleukin(IL)-23/IL-17 pathways central to psoriasis pathogenesis, have improved complete or nearly complete clearance rates and are characterized by an excellent safety profile.Real-world setting experiences have generally confirmed the results of clinical trials, but real-world data regarding newer biologics is relatively scarce. AREAS COVERED We provide an extensive review of real-world survival of biologic treatments for moderate to severe psoriasis. EXPERT OPINION There is growing and consistent evidence of higher drug survival of IL-23 inhibitors, possibly due to their favorable efficacy and safety profiles, dosing convenience and persistence of response despite treatment interruption; eventual confirmation of their potential role as modifiers of the natural history of psoriasis might provide additional reasons for therapeutic persistence of this class of biologics.

Abstract
Secukinumab is effective in treating patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. However, most studies assessing its effectiveness in routine clinical settings in China are mostly single-center studies with a limited sample size. The objective of this study was to assess secukinumab's efficacy, treatment patterns, and characteristics in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. This 24-week, multicenter (n = 5) retrospective study analyzed the data of Chinese adult patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis who initiated secukinumab treatment between May 2019 and March 2020. The Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI), body surface area (BSA), Investigator's Global Assessment Modified 2011 (IGA mod 2011), and Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) were assessed. Dermatologists documented the treatment dosage and modification reasons. Of the 244 secukinumab-naïve patients, most were men (73.4%, 179/244) and weighed 60-90 kg (72.8%, 177/243). The mean (SD) age at secukinumab initiation was 38.1 (11.6) years, and the disease duration was 13.5 (7.9) years. Most patients (97.1%, 237/244) received secukinumab 300 mg. At weeks 4, 12, 16, and 24, the proportion of patients achieving PASI 75 (≥75% reduction from baseline) was 40.0%, 92.1%, 88.4%, and 88.9%, respectively; PASI 90 was 15.0%, 73.7%, 81.4%, and 68.3%, respectively; and PASI 100 was 8.7%, 40.8%, 58.1%, and 41.3%, respectively. During the same periods, BSA and IGA mod 2011 showed similar improvement trends. An increasing proportion of patients achieved DLQI of 0-1 (21.6%, 65.7%, 75.0%, and 80.3%, respectively). Treatment modification was highest at week 12. The average interval between two administrations after week 4 was 62.95 days. Secukinumab was highly effective in improving the PASI, IGA, BSA, and DLQI in Chinese patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis throughout the first 24 weeks. The treatment pattern for Chinese patients differs from that in the clinical guidelines.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Psoriasis affecting the genital, palmoplantar, and scalp regions is recognized as difficult-to-treat, and data on the efficacy of biologics in these areas remains limited. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This single-center study evaluated the effectiveness of anti-IL-17 and anti-IL-23 agents on scalp, genital, and palmoplantar psoriasis. We retrospectively analyzed data from all patients with psoriasis being treated with IL inhibitors at our clinic. Effectiveness was evaluated at 16, 28, and 52 weeks, according to the achievement of relative and mean PSSI, PGA-G, and ppPASI. RESULTS In all, 308 patients showed involvement of the scalp, 136 in the genital area, and 94 in the palmoplantar regions. On scalp psoriasis, anti-IL-17 agents demonstrated superiority in disease control compared to anti-IL-23 agents. PSSI100 at week 16 was reached by 59% of patients on an anti-IL17 vs 39.8% on an anti-IL-23 (p < 0.003). At genital sites, no significant differences between anti-IL-17 and anti-IL-23 agents were observed, and all classes achieved PGA-G 0/1. No significant differences between anti-IL-17 and anti-IL-23 agents were observed in palmoplantar areas. CONCLUSIONS The present data support the utility of both anti-IL-17 and anti-IL-23 agents for the treatment of difficult-to-treat areas in patients with psoriasis. Anti-IL-17 agents achieved better control of scalp psoriasis.

Secukinumab long-term efficacy and safety in psoriasis through to year 5 of treatment: results of a randomized extension of the phase III ERASURE and FIXTURE trials. Br J Dermatol 2023; 188:198-207. [PMID: 36763857 DOI: 10.1093/bjd/ljac040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2022] [Revised: 09/22/2022] [Accepted: 09/24/2022] [Indexed: 01/09/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND In the long-term extension study of the ERASURE and FIXTURE trials, the efficacy of secukinumab (a fully human anti-interleukin-17A monoclonal antibody) was demonstrated to have been maintained through to year 3 of treatment in moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. OBJECTIVES To assess the efficacy and safety of secukinumab through to year 5 of treatment in moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. METHODS Responders with ≥ 75% improvement in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI 75) from two core trials - ERASURE and FIXTURE - were randomized 2 : 1 at year 1 (end of core trials) to either the same dose (300 or 150 mg, continuous treatment) or placebo (treatment withdrawal) every 4 weeks, until year 3 or relapse (> 50% reduction in maximal PASI from core study baseline). Partial responders (achieving PASI 50 but not PASI 75) at year 1 continued at the same dose as in the core trials. At year 3, all patients received open-label secukinumab treatment, with those on secukinumab 300 mg continuing on their dose, while those on secukinumab 150 mg or placebo received secukinumab 150 or 300 mg based on the physician's discretion. The study is registered on ClinicalTrials.gov with the identifier NCT01544595. RESULTS Most patients randomized to placebo at year 1 relapsed, but the response was rapidly recaptured upon reinitiation of treatment. PASI responses were sustained with secukinumab through to year 5. The PASI responses for the 300 mg responders + partial responders group at year 1 (PASI 75/90/100: 86.8%/72.8%/45.9%) trended downwards until year 3 (PASI 75/90/100: 82.3%/58.4%/32.7%) and then remained stable through year 4 (PASI 75/90/100: 83.3%/60.1%/32.2%) until year 5 (PASI 75/90/100: 81.1%/62.8%/35.1%). Dermatology Life Quality Index showed sustained benefit up to year 5. Absolute PASI responses were maintained throughout the study. The most common adverse events (AEs) were infections and infestations, nasopharyngitis, and upper respiratory tract infections (URTIs). The overall exposure-adjusted incidence rate (EAIR; with 95% confidence interval) for all AEs was 139.9 (130.3-149.9). EAIRs for Crohn's disease and neutropenia were 0.1 (0.0-0.3) and 0.5 (0.3-0.8), respectively. CONCLUSIONS The 4-year extension of two pivotal phase III trials demonstrated that secukinumab treatment was effective through to year 5 and improved quality of life in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. The most common AEs were infections and infestations, nasopharyngitis, and URTIs. The safety profile was consistent with that in the secukinumab phase II/III clinical development programme.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Psoriasis (PsO), an immune-mediated inflammatory skin disorder, has substantial negative impact on patients' quality of life. Secukinumab, an approved treatment for moderate-to-severe plaque PsO, has an established long-term efficacy and safety profile. This study aims to provide real-world evidence of long-term effectiveness and retention rate of secukinumab in Vietnamese patients with PsO. METHODS This retrospective, observational study collected medical records of adult patients with moderate-to-severe PsO receiving secukinumab treatment from Ho Chi Minh City Hospital of Dermato-Venereology. The primary objective was to evaluate secukinumab effectiveness in PsO as measured by 75% improvement in psoriasis area and severity index (PASI 75) at month 12. Secondary objectives were PASI 90/100, absolute PASI ≤ 3 and ≤ 5, Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI), and retention rate over 48 months. RESULTS In total, 232 patients with moderate-to-severe PsO met inclusion criteria; 68.1% were male, with median age and age of onset of 39 and 27.5 years, respectively. Median time from onset of PsO to secukinumab treatment was 120 months, 95.3% were prior biologics/disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs naive and 41.4% received concomitant therapies for PsO; 82.3% had national insurance coverage. At month 12, 93.9% of patients achieved PASI 75 (primary endpoint); 80.2/56.9% achieved PASI 90/100; 91.4 and 84.8% patients achieved absolute PASI ≤ 5 and ≤ 3, respectively. The response was sustained over 48 months, with 91.9%/78.0%/52.0% of patients achieving PASI 75/90/100, 89.5% and 82.1% patients achieving absolute PASI ≤ 5 and ≤ 3, respectively. At month 12, 61.4% of patients achieved DLQI 0/1 which was sustained up to month 48 (69.2%). Secukinumab adherence rate of 84.9% at month 12 dropped to 34.2% at month 48. Patients receiving concomitant therapy and national insurance showed higher adherence rate. CONCLUSION Secukinumab demonstrated long-term effectiveness in real-world Vietnamese patients with moderate-to-severe PsO, with treatment adherence being higher in patients having concomitant therapies and national insurance.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to assess the long-term effectiveness and safety of secukinumab in Spanish patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis in a daily practice setting. Nationwide multicenter, observational, retrospective, non-interventional, single-cohort study including patients who initiated treatment with secukinumab in daily clinical practice conditions. Subjects were followed for a minimum of 3 months and a maximum of 24 months. Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI), Body Surface Area and Physician's Global Assessments were collected at baseline and months 3, 6, 12, 18 and 24 during treatment. Adverse events and reasons for secukinumab withdrawal were collected and classified for analyses. A total of 384 patients were enrolled in the study. Median PASI declined rapidly from 14.3 at baseline to 2.7 at month 3, 2.1 at month 12, and remained low (2.8) at month 24. Within the group of patients with PASI ≥10 at baseline (n = 278), 58.3%, 60.4% and 56.5% achieved a PASI90 response at months 3, 12 and 24, respectively. As for absolute PASI, 86.5%, 69.5%, 42.7% and 37% achieved PASI <5, < 3, < 1 and 0, respectively, at month 3. Secukinumab was more effective in biologic-naïve patients and in those with lower Body Mass Index. Secukinumab presented a good long-term safety profile. Secukinumab was effective and safe in a routine clinical setting, in a large cohort of patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis, in the short-, medium- and long-term (up to 24 months).

Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by erythematous scaly plaques, accompanied by systemic damage that leads to the development of multiple comorbidities. In particular, the association between psoriasis and cardiometabolic comorbidities, including cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), obesity, diabetes mellitus, and metabolic syndrome, has been verified in a considerable number of clinical trials. Moreover, the increased risk of cardiometabolic comorbidities positively correlates with psoriasis severity. Biologic therapy targeting inflammatory pathways or cytokines substantially improves the life quality of psoriasis patients and may affect cardiometabolic comorbidities by reducing their incidences. In this review, we focus on exploring the association between cardiometabolic comorbidities and psoriasis, and emphasize the benefits and precautions of biologic therapy in the management of psoriasis with cardiometabolic comorbidities. The pathogenic mechanisms of cardiometabolic comorbidities in psoriasis patients involve common genetic factors, lipid metabolism, insulin resistance, and shared inflammatory pathways such as tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-23/Th-17 pathways.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Interleukin 17 is a proinflammatory cytokine considered to play a significant role in the immunopathogenesis of many chronic immune-mediated disorders. Interleukin 17 inhibitors provide an excellent treatment option for patients with psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, or ankylosing spondylitis. However, Interleukin 17 inhibitors have been suspected of worsening or triggering new-onset inflammatory bowel disease. AREAS COVERED A literature search was conducted until March 2021 to investigate reporting prevalence, and characteristics of all gastroenterological adverse events in patients treated with Interleukin 17 inhibitors. One hundred and six clinical randomized trials were included, involving 40,053 patients. Inflammatory bowel disease cases were reported in 0.4% of patients exposed to Interleukin 17 inhibitors. The most frequent other gastrointestinal adverse events were diarrhea (2.5%), nausea or vomiting (0.7%), and gastroenteritis (0.2%). Sixty-one uncontrolled or retrospective studies were included, involving 16,791 patients. Sixty (0.36%) inflammatory bowel disease cases were reported, 0.6% of patients reported other gastrointestinal adverse events. EXPERT OPINION Interleukin 17 inhibitors are safe and effective in the treatment of psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis. Low incidence rate of developing new-onset inflammatory bowel disease or exacerbating preexisting inflammatory bowel disease with anti-IL-17 agents has been reported. Clinicians should be aware of the possibility of these concerns when considering this therapy.

Abstract
Secukinumab, a full human immunoglobulin G1κ monoclonal antibody that targets interleukin-17A, has demonstrated remarkable efficacy and appreciable tolerance in patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis. However, data on its real-life performance, particularly on drug survival in China are limited. To investigate the efficacy, safety, and drug survival of secukinumab in Chinese patients with psoriasis, we conducted a monocentric retrospective study of 66 patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis to followed-up for 52 weeks. At week 12, 86.4%, 57.6%, and 10.6% of the patients attained 75% improvement in psoriasis area and severity Index (PASI) score from baseline (PASI 75), PASI 90, and PASI 100 responses, respectively. The quality of life of patients markedly improved. The overall survival rate was 74.2%. Adverse events occurred in 30 patients (45.5%). The results revealed favorable efficacy, safety, and tolerability of secukinumab in the treatment of patients with psoriasis and provided data on drug survival in real-life clinical setting in China for the first time.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There have been few real-life dose-comparing studies on the efficacy and safety of secukinumab in Chinese patients with plaque psoriasis. We conducted a real-life cohort study to investigate the efficacy and safety of secukinumab 150 and 300 mg in Chinese patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. METHODS A total of 106 patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis were included in this study. Patients received either secukinumab 150 mg or secukinumab 300 mg according to patients' weights and severity of psoriasis. The treatment continued for at least 24 weeks. The efficacy was evaluated by improvement in the psoriasis area and severity index (PASI) scores. The safety was also analyzed. RESULTS Fifty-nine patients (55.7%) were treated with secukinumab 300 mg and 47 patients (44.3%) were treated with secukinumab 150 mg. After 12-week treatment, PASI75/90/100 responses were achieved in 100%, 97.8%, and 95.7% of patients, respectively, in secukinumab 150 mg group, and the efficacy was maintained to week 24. In secukinumab 300 mg group, PASI75/90/100 responses were achieved in 93.2%, 81.4%, and 76.3% of patients, respectively, at week 12. In this group, PASI75/90/100 responses reached 91.5%, 86.4%, and 79.9%, respectively, at week 24. Biologic-experienced patients had lower responses than biologic-naïve patients. Secukinumab 150 and 300 mg were well tolerated. Five patients discontinued treatment due to poor response, adverse event, or economic reasons. CONCLUSIONS This real-life study demonstrated that high PASI 90 and PASI 100 responses were achieved in Chinese psoriasis patients receiving secukinumab 150 or 300 mg. Biologic-naïve was associated with better clinical efficacy.

Abstract
Background: Although secukinumab and ixekizumab both act by inhibiting IL-17A, some scientific evidence suggests that there are differences in efficacy between the two agents. Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the short- and long-term effectiveness of ixekizumab and secukinumab in clinical practice. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on a cohort of 245 psoriatic patients receiving secukinumab or ixekizumab during the period from September 2016 to December 2019. The proportion of patients achieving PASI75, PASI90, and PASI100 at weeks 12 and 24 was calculated. We recorded the 12- and 24-month drug survival as a measure to assess long-term effectiveness. Results: A higher proportion of patients in the secukinumab group achieved PASI75, 90, and 100 at 12 weeks. The Kaplan-Meier survival curve for any reason of discontinuation showed no differences between the two groups. Instead, the multivariate analysis for ineffectiveness, adjusted for potential confounders, showed a lower drug survival rate in the secukinumab group, with an adjusted HR of 2.57 (95% CI 1.05-6.28, p 0.038). Conclusion: This real-life study demonstrated that ixekizumab and secukinumab are both highly effective in short- and long-term treatment of psoriasis, even though few differences exist concerning speed of action and long-term effectiveness.

Abstract
Background Drug survival rates reflect efficacy and safety and may be influenced by the availability of alternative treatment options. Little is known about time‐dependent drug survival in psoriasis and the effect of increasing numbers of biologic treatment options. Objectives To determine whether drug survival is influenced by the availability of treatment options and by factors such as gender, psoriatic arthritis or previous biologic treatment. Methods This observational, retrospective, multicentre cohort study analysed data from patients registered in the Austrian Psoriasis Registry (PsoRA) who were treated with biologics between 1 January 2015 and 30 November 2019. Results A total of 1572 patients who received 1848 treatment cycles were included in this analysis. The highest long‐term Psoriasis Area and Severity Index improvement was observed after treatment with ixekizumab, followed by ustekinumab and secukinumab, adalimumab and etanercept. Overall, ustekinumab surpassed all other biologics in drug survival up to 48 months. However, when adjusted for biologic naïvety, its superiority vanished and drug survival rates were similar for ixekizumab (91·6%), secukinumab (90·2%) and ustekinumab (92·8%), all of them superior to adalimumab (76·5%) and etanercept (71·9%) at 12 months and beyond. Besides biologic non‐naïvety (2·10, P < 0·001), the introduction of a new drug such as secukinumab or ixekizumab (relative hazard ratio 1·6, P = 0·001) and female gender (1·50, P = 0·019) increased the risk of treatment discontinuation overall, whereas psoriatic arthritis did not (1·12, P = 0·21). Conclusions The time‐dependent availability of drugs should be considered when analysing and comparing drug survival. Previous biologic exposure significantly influences drug survival. Women are more likely to stop treatment.
What is already known about this topic?
Female gender and previous biologic exposure have been discussed as predictors for decreased drug survival in patients with psoriasis, but it remains unknown whether a time‐dependent increased availability of treatment options alters biologic drug survival.
What does this study add?
The increased availability of alternative biologic treatments over time leads to an elevated risk for treatment discontinuation overall; therefore, drug survival analysis has to be time adjusted. Moreover, the study reveals that the impact of previous biologic treatment on drug survival is tremendous and confirms worse drug survival in female patients.

[PMID: 33203276 DOI: 10.2217/imt-2020-0195] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Psoriasis is a systemic immunologic disorder associated with decreased quality of life and numerous co-morbidities, including psoriatic arthritis and cardiovascular disease. Secukinumab, a fully human IgG1 monoclonal antibody, selectively binds IL-17A and is approved by the US FDA and European Medicines Agency for moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. This review examines the efficacy and safety of secukinumab for the treatment of psoriasis using the literature retrieved from the PubMed database. In clinical trials, treatment with secukinumab led to rapid and sustained improvement in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) scores, with PASI 90 response rates up to 68.5% at 5 years. Long-term clinical trial and real-world data have established secukinumab as a safe and effective treatment for psoriasis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple biologics for psoriasis exist, and interleukin (IL) 17 inhibitors are among those with the best efficacy. However, switching treatment is often required at some point, and intraclass switch of IL-17 inhibitors is not well investigated. OBJECTIVES To determine the efficacy of a second IL-17 inhibitor in patients with psoriasis. METHODS Two authors independently searched the databases PubMed and EMBASE for studies reporting on efficacy of IL-17 inhibitors in patients with psoriasis previously exposed to another IL-17 inhibitor. The study was performed in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. RESULTS In total, 14 publications comprising 655 patients were included. The proportion of patients achieving a reduction of 75%, 90%, and 100% in Psoriasis Area Severity Index were, respectively, 74.6 (95% confidence interval [CI], 63.9-84.0), 69.4% (95% CI, 53.2-83.4), and 46.4 (95% CI, 30.5-62.7) after short-term treatment (weeks 9, 12, and 16 combined). LIMITATIONS Most studies included were on ixekizumab and were retrospective chart reviews with no information on the response to the previous IL-17 inhibitor. CONCLUSION Previous treatment with an IL-17 inhibitor does not appear to affect the efficacy of another IL-17 inhibitor in the treatment of psoriasis. However, further prospective studies are needed.
