Abstract
BACKGROUND Biologics are essential in treating psoriasis. In recent years, the pathogenesis exploration and development of new target drugs have provided a more complete evidence-based foundation for the biological treatment of psoriasis. This study aims to use bibliometrics to analyze the research status and development trends of biologics in psoriasis. METHODS The bibliometric analysis of publications related to biologics in psoriasis from 2004 to 2023 was conducted using the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database as the search data source. To perform the bibliometric analysis and create visual knowledge graphs, CiteSpace, the Bibliometrix R package, and VOSviewers were utilized. RESULTS The study included a total of 3800 articles. The United States had the highest number of publications. The leading authors and institutions were Steven R. Feldman and the University of Manchester, respectively, in the global partnership. The cluster plot divided all keywords into 11 categories. Currently, Secukinumab and Guselkumab are representative biological agents being studied due to their considerable efficacy and long-term safety. CONCLUSIONS Targeted therapy has emerged as a significant trend in the current treatment of psoriasis. Early and active use of biologics can effectively control disease progression, prevent or delay the occurrence of comorbidities, and may even alter the natural course of psoriasis. However, further investigation is required to fully understand the specific mechanisms of psoriasis and the use of biological agents.

Using Automated Machine Learning to Predict Necessary Upcoming Therapy Changes in Patients With Psoriasis Vulgaris and Psoriatic Arthritis and Uncover New Influences on Disease Progression: Retrospective Study. JMIR Form Res 2024; 8:e55855. [PMID: 38738977 DOI: 10.2196/55855] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2023] [Revised: 02/27/2024] [Accepted: 04/11/2024] [Indexed: 05/14/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Psoriasis vulgaris (PsV) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) are complex, multifactorial diseases significantly impacting health and quality of life. Predicting treatment response and disease progression is crucial for optimizing therapeutic interventions, yet challenging. Automated machine learning (AutoML) technology shows promise for rapidly creating accurate predictive models based on patient features and treatment data. OBJECTIVE This study aims to develop highly accurate machine learning (ML) models using AutoML to address key clinical questions for PsV and PsA patients, including predicting therapy changes, identifying reasons for therapy changes, and factors influencing skin lesion progression or an abnormal Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) score. METHODS Clinical study data from 309 PsV and PsA patients were extensively prepared and analyzed using AutoML to build and select the most accurate predictive models for each variable of interest. RESULTS Therapy change at 24 weeks follow-up was modeled using the extreme gradient boosted trees classifier with early stopping (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve [AUC] of 0.9078 and logarithmic loss [LogLoss] of 0.3955 for the holdout partition). Key influencing factors included the initial systemic therapeutic agent, the Classification Criteria for Psoriatic Arthritis score at baseline, and changes in quality of life. An average blender incorporating three models (gradient boosted trees classifier, ExtraTrees classifier, and Eureqa generalized additive model classifier) with an AUC of 0.8750 and LogLoss of 0.4603 was used to predict therapy changes for 2 hypothetical patients, highlighting the significance of these factors. Treatments such as methotrexate or specific biologicals showed a lower propensity for change. An average blender of a random forest classifier, an extreme gradient boosted trees classifier, and a Eureqa classifier (AUC of 0.9241 and LogLoss of 0.4498) was used to estimate PASI (Psoriasis Area and Severity Index) change after 24 weeks. Primary predictors included the initial PASI score, change in pruritus levels, and change in therapy. A lower initial PASI score and consistently low pruritus were associated with better outcomes. BASDAI classification at onset was analyzed using an average blender of a Eureqa generalized additive model classifier, an extreme gradient boosted trees classifier with early stopping, and a dropout additive regression trees classifier with an AUC of 0.8274 and LogLoss of 0.5037. Influential factors included initial pain, disease activity, and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale scores for depression and anxiety. Increased pain, disease activity, and psychological distress generally led to higher BASDAI scores. CONCLUSIONS The practical implications of these models for clinical decision-making in PsV and PsA can guide early investigation and treatment, contributing to improved patient outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Since during the COVID-19 pandemic nail psoriasis was evaluated exclusively with teledermatology, dermatologists started to face the difficulty in rating it concurrent with other onycopathies (i.e., onychotillomania and onychophagy). Thus, we aimed to improve the existing severity scores and verify the value in different clinical settings (i.e., in person vs. teledermatology (video or picture)). METHODS This multicenter prospective observational study evaluated patients with nail psoriasis and screened them for onychophagy or onychotillomania in telemedicine from May 2020 to January 2021. For therapeutic purposes patients with nail psoriasis were followed and rated with the Nijmegen-Nail psoriasis Activity Index tooL (N-NAIL) for 9 months; at the same time, N-NAIL and a new dedicated index that monitor also the changes in nail dimension (Galeazzi-(G) N-NAIL) were tested for accuracy. We assessed inter- and intraobserver agreement for the three different settings (in person, video, and pictures). RESULTS In our cohort of 382 patients with nail psoriasis after a clinical and dermatoscopic assessment we found 20 (5.24%) patients with onychophagy and 17 (4.45%) patients with onychotillomania. Analysis of the impact of nail psoriasis on patients revealed that onycholysis and crumbing, followed by subungual hyperkeratosis, were the clinical signs that prevalently bothered patients. N-NAIL score displayed moderate intra- and interobserver agreement. Over the 9 months follow-up, N-NAIL vs. GN-NAIL displayed a solid correlation at all the examined time points, i.e., baseline and after 3, 6, and 9 months. CONCLUSION We created a new tool, the GN-NAIL capable of efficiently scoring nail psoriasis severity in complex cases, such as patients with onychotillomania and onychophagy, and monitor response to treatment during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic non-contagious autoimmune disease. Gallic acid is a natural compound with potential health benefits, including antioxidant, anticancer, antiviral and antibacterial properties. Nevertheless, the influence of gallic acid on psoriasis has not been fully determined. This investigation aimed to discover the effect of gallic acid on psoriasis. Thirty-one pairs of psoriatic skin tissues and healthy adult human skin tissues were collected. Human keratinocytes (HaCaT cells) were transfected with interleukin 17A (IL-17A) to create the psoriatic keratinocyte model. The content of bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4) microRNA was assessed using qRT-PCR testing. The content of BRD4 was detected by Western blotting. Cell migration was evaluated by conducting a wound healing assay. Cell proliferation was determined using an EdU assay. Apoptosis was detected by the TUNEL assay. The contents of interferon gamma (IFN-γ), IL-6, IL-8 and IL-17 were detected by ELISA. BRD4 was up-regulated in psoriatic skin tissues and in the IL-17A group compared to the healthy adult human skin tissues and the control group. Silencing BRD4 inhibited cell migration, proliferation and inflammatory response but induced apoptosis in IL-17A-treated HaCaT cells. Conversely, BRD4 over-expression promoted cell migration, proliferation and inflammatory response but suppressed apoptosis in IL-17A-treated HaCaT cells. Gallic acid repressed cell migration, proliferation and inflammatory response but indu-ced apoptosis in HaCaT cells transfected with IL-17A by down-regulating BRD4. Gallic acid represses cell migration, proliferation and inflammatory response but induces apoptosis in IL-17A-transfected HaCaT cells by down-regulating BRD4.

Abstract
Nail psoriasis is a difficult-to-treat manifestation of psoriatic disease affecting up to 80% of patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and 40-60% of patients with plaque psoriasis (PsO). Ixekizumab (IXE), a high-affinity monoclonal antibody that selectively targets interleukin-17A, is approved for the treatment of patients with PsA and patients with moderate-to-severe PsO. This narrative review aims to summarize nail psoriasis data generated from IXE clinical trials in patients with PsA (SPIRIT-P1, SPIRIT-P2, and SPIRIT-H2H) and/or moderate-to-severe PsO (UNCOVER-1, -2, -3, IXORA-R, IXORA-S, and IXORA-PEDS) with an emphasis on head-to-head clinical trial data. Across numerous trials explored, IXE treatment was associated with greater improvement in resolution of nail disease versus comparators at week 24, results which were maintained up to and beyond week 52. Additionally, patients experienced higher rates of resolution of nail disease versus comparators at week 24 and maintained high levels of resolution up to week 52 and beyond. In both PsA and PsO, IXE demonstrated efficacy in treating nail psoriasis, and therefore may be an effective therapy option. Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov identifier UNCOVER-1 (NCT01474512), UNCOVER-2 (NCT01597245), UNCOVER-3 (NCT01646177), IXORA-PEDS (NCT03073200), IXORA-S (NCT02561806), IXORA-R (NCT03573323), SPIRIT-P1 (NCT01695239), SPIRIT-P2 (NCT02349295), SPIRIT-H2H (NCT03151551).

Nail psoriasis dynamics during biologic treatment and withdrawal in patients with psoriasis who may be at high risk of developing psoriatic arthritis: a post hoc analysis of the VOYAGE 2 randomized trial. Arthritis Res Ther 2023; 25:169. [PMID: 37715294 PMCID: PMC10503152 DOI: 10.1186/s13075-023-03138-z] [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: 03/23/2023] [Accepted: 08/09/2023] [Indexed: 09/17/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Nail psoriasis is a common, physiologically, and psychologically disruptive, and yet often under-treated manifestation of psoriasis. The objectives of this analysis were to investigate the trajectory of nail psoriasis, a risk factor for psoriatic arthritis (PsA), with guselkumab vs adalimumab treatment followed by withdrawal, and determine characteristics associated with nail response in patients treated with guselkumab. METHODS This post hoc analysis of the phase III trial VOYAGE 2 included patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis and baseline nail involvement. Nail Psoriasis Severity Index (NAPSI) and Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) were analyzed through week 48 in patients randomized to guselkumab or adalimumab. Multiple logistic regression analyzed factors associated with NAPSI 0/1 at week 24/week 48 following guselkumab treatment. In a separate analysis, patients were stratified by prior biologic experience. RESULTS Overall, 272 vs 132 patients receiving guselkumab vs adalimumab had nail psoriasis at baseline. Lower baseline NAPSI and week 16 PASI were associated with achieving NAPSI 0/1 at week 24 (NAPSI, odds ratio 0.685 [95% confidence interval: 0.586, 0.802]; week 16 PASI, 0.469 [0.281, 0.782]) and week 48 (NAPSI, 0.784 [0.674, 0.914]; week 16 PASI, 0.557 [0.331, 0.937]) with guselkumab. Previous biologic experience did not impact NAPSI response. Following treatment withdrawal at week 28, mean NAPSI was maintained in the guselkumab arm (week 24 1.7, week 48 1.9) and increased slightly in the adalimumab arm (week 24 1.4, week 48 2.3). Mean PASI increased across both treatment arms. CONCLUSIONS Higher skin efficacy at week 16 was associated with better nail responses during guselkumab treatment. Nail psoriasis improvements reflected skin improvements. Following guselkumab withdrawal, nail response was maintained longer than skin response. Future studies should investigate whether such improvements in nail response reduce patients' risk of later PsA development. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02207244.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Nail psoriasis is an inflammatory disorder without a potential scarring outcome, but the nail signs, even the milder ones, can cause discomfort to patients and severely affect their quality of life. Nail psoriasis may be associated with psoriatic arthritis and when it starts during infancy, it may be a predictor of a more severe disease course in adulthood. All these issues contribute to the high economic burden of psoriasis. AREAS COVERED Nail psoriasis is notoriously difficult to treat, even though new treatments are in continuous development. This paper provides an update on new treatments and address the current gaps in care of nail psoriasis. EXPERT OPINION A better understanding of the disease pathogenesis and more 'real-life' studies will definitely be helpful to improve treatment results. A lower level of heterogeneity should be advisable among trials when evaluating nail psoriasis. Moreover, the relationship between nail psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis should be the focus of unbiased studies in order to better define the real risk that nail psoriasis patients have to develop arthritis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nail involvement has a tremendous impact on psoriasis patients. Early detection and prompt intervention of psoriatic nail damage are necessary. METHODS A total of 4290 patients confirmed to have psoriasis between June 2020 and September 2021 were recruited from the Follow-up Study of Psoriasis database. Among them, 3920 patients were selected and divided into the nail involvement group (n = 929) and the non-nail involvement group (n = 2991) by inclusion and exclusion criteria. Univariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to identify the predictors of nail involvement for the nomogram. Calibration plots, the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and decision curve analysis (DCA) were used to evaluate the discriminative and calibrating ability and clinical utility of the nomogram. RESULTS Sex, age at onset, duration, smoking, drug allergy history, comorbidity, sub-type of psoriasis, scalp involvement, palmoplantar involvement, genital involvement, and PASI score were selected to establish the nomogram for nail involvement. AUROC (0.745; 95% CI: 0.725-0.765) indicated the satisfactory discriminative ability of the nomogram. The calibration curve showed favorable consistency, and the DCA showed the good clinical utility of the nomogram. CONCLUSION A predictive nomogram with good clinical utility was developed to assist clinicians in evaluating the risk of nail involvement in psoriasis patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and induced expression of skin biomarkers of AK111 injection after multiple administrations in subjects with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. METHODS This study is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-parallel-controlled study using a dose escalation mode of multiple doses. A total of 48 subjects were sequentially randomized to receive each AK111 dose regimen (75 mg, 150 mg, 300 mg, 450 mg) or the corresponding placebo. All subjects were treated with the study drug at weeks 0, 1, 4, and 8 and were unblinded at week 12, with the placebo group ending and the AK111 group being followed up to 20 weeks. RESULTS At week 12, compared with placebo, the percentage of subjects achieving Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 75 (PASI75) and static Physician Global Assessment (sPGA) 0/1 in the AK111 75 mg-450 mg dose groups was significantly increased, and higher PASI90 was achieved in the 150 mg, 300 mg, and 450 mg dose groups than in the 75 mg group. All efficacy indicators were maintained at week 20. The incidence of treatment-emergent anti-drug antibodies (ADAs) was 0% (0/48). Neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) were not detected in any subject. The proportion of subjects who reported any treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) was 75.0% in the AK111 group, similar to the 66.7% in the placebo group. The most commonly reported adverse events were hyperglycemia, elevated blood pressure, and hypokalemia. The AK111 pharmacokinetics showed approximate dose proportionality with regard to the maximum observed concentration (Cmax) and area under the curve from 0 to the time of the last quantifiable concentration (AUC0-t) following subcutaneous injection doses of 150-450 mg. CONCLUSIONS After moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis subjects received multiple subcutaneous AK111 injections of 150-450 mg, AK111 exposure increased in a roughly dose-proportional relationship. AK111 was safe and tolerable. In subjects with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis, AK111 demonstrated encouraging preliminary efficacy, which was sustained for a relatively long time after the last dose administration. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION The clinical trial identification number is NCT05504317.

Abstract
Nail psoriasis (NP) is often considered disfiguring for patients with a relevant impact on quality of life (QoL). It is also difficult to treat for dermatologists who are often frustrated by the scarcity of effective therapeutic alternatives in this particular location. Topical therapies are often used as the first-line treatment for mild NP, but efficacy is the modest. Conventional disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (cDMARDs) (e.g., cyclosporine, methotrexate, acitretin, and dimethyl fumarate) are generally avoided in NP without general cutaneous involvement. Biologics represent, to date, a concrete possibility for the management of these patients. The data from the clinical trials are encouraging, although there are still few data in real-life. Here, we report a study conducted at Siena University Hospital on 20 patients with NP on both hands and feet treated with anti-IL23 for 52 weeks. No differences were evaluated from baseline to week 4 of anti-IL-23 treatment. NAPSI greatly improved at week 24 with almost 60% of patients reaching NAPSI75 and 40% NAPSI50. At week 52, almost 75% of patients reached NAPSI90. No adverse effects were reported in the patients in the study. The clinical response observed in these patients suggests that treatments that target interleukin-23 may be an effective option for NP, especially when refractory to conventional therapies.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic multisystem inflammatory disease that affects ~0.1–1.5% of the world population. The classic cutaneous manifestation of psoriasis is scaly erythematous plaques, limited or widely distributed. Moreover, psoriasis could be associated with comorbidities like psoriatic arthritis, metabolic syndrome, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, nephropathy, bowel disease, and brain diseases. In this review, we suggest that psoriasis should be classified as cutaneous psoriasis or systemic psoriasis and propose the classification for distinction. This would help to better understand and manage psoriasis.

Abstract
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects multiple organ systems and is characterized by skin and joint manifestations. PsA is frequently undiagnosed and/or misdiagnosed, especially because of the similarities in clinical presentation shared with other arthritic diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA). An accurate and timely diagnosis of PsA is crucial to prevent delays in optimal treatment, which can lead to irreversible joint damage and increased functional disability. Patients are usually seen by a number of different healthcare providers on their path to a diagnosis of PsA, including advanced practice providers (APPs). This review provides a comprehensive overview of the characteristic features that can be used to facilitate the differentiation of PsA from RA and OA. Detailed information on clinical manifestations, biomarkers, radiologic features, and therapeutic recommendations for PsA included here can be applied in routine clinical settings to provide APPs with the confidence and knowledge to recognize and refer patients more accurately to rheumatologists for management of patients with PsA.
