Abstract
OBJECTIVE Investigate effects of gender on disease characteristics and treatment impact in patients with PsA. METHODS PsABio is a non-interventional European study in patients with PsA starting a biological DMARD [bDMARD; ustekinumab or TNF inhibitor (TNFi)]. This post-hoc analysis compared persistence, disease activity, patient-reported outcomes and safety between male and female patients at baseline and 6 and 12 months of treatment. RESULTS At baseline, disease duration was 6.7 and 6.9 years for 512 females and 417 males respectively. Mean (95% CI) scores for females vs males were: clinical Disease Activity Index for Psoriatic Arthritis (cDAPSA), 32.3 (30.3, 34.2) vs 26.8 (24.8, 28.9); HAQ-Disability Index (HAQ-DI), 1.3 (1.2, 1.4) vs 0.93 (0.86, 0.99); total PsA Impact of Disease-12 (PsAID-12) score, 6.0 (5.8, 6.2) vs 5.1 (4.9, 5.3), respectively. Improvements in scores were smaller in female than male patients. At 12 months, 175/303 (57.8%) female and 212/264 (80.3%) male patients achieved cDAPSA low disease activity, 96/285 (33.7%) and 137/247 (55.5%), achieved minimal disease activity (MDA), respectively. HAQ-DI scores were 0.85 (0.77, 0.92) vs 0.50 (0.43, 0.56), PsAID-12 scores 3.5 (3.3, 3.8) vs 2.4 (2.2, 2.6), respectively. Treatment persistence was lower in females than males (P ≤ 0.001). Lack of effectiveness was the predominant reason to stop, irrespective of gender and bDMARD. CONCLUSIONS Before starting bDMARDs, females had more severe disease than males and a lower percentage reached favourable disease states, with lower persistence of treatment after 12 months. A better understanding of the mechanisms underlying these differences may improve therapeutic management in females with PsA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To evaluate the real-world effect of the IL-12/23 inhibitor ustekinumab or of a tumour necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi) on patient-reported outcomes (PRO) and their association with effectiveness endpoints in psoriatic arthritis (PsA) patients over 3 years. METHODS In PsABio (NCT02627768), a prospective, observational study, patients with PsA that were prescribed first- to third-line ustekinumab or a TNFi, and remained on that drug for 3 years, were analysed for change in baseline in PROs (EuroQol-5 dimensions health state VAS [EQ-5D VAS], 12-item Psoriatic Arthritis Impact of Disease questionnaire [PsAID-12; range 0-10], Work Productivity and Activity Impairment for Psoriatic Arthritis questionnaire [WPAI; results expressed as a percentage for each domain]), and the association between PROs and WPAI with effectiveness endpoints, clinical disease activity index for psoriatic arthritis (cDAPSA), low disease activity (LDA)/remission, minimal disease activity (MDA) and very low disease activity (VLDA). RESULTS In 437 patients (mean age 49.1 years, 47.8% female), at 3 years, ustekinumab and TNFi treatment led to comparable improvements in EQ-5D VAS; mean change from baseline (95% confidence intervals [CI]) was 11.0 (6.5; 15.4) and 18.9 (14.0; 23.9), respectively. Both groups improved PsAID-12 after 3 years; mean change from baseline (95% CI) was -2.9 (-3.2; -2.5) and -3.5 (-3.9; -3.2), respectively. At baseline, due to their PsA, TNFi-treated patients had lower work productivity compared to ustekinumab-treated patients; mean productivity reduction (95% CI) was 58.8 [52.4; 65.2] and 43.3 [35.6; 51.1]. Over 3 years, TNFi-treated patients had a greater improvement in work productivity compared to ustekinumab-treated patients, ultimately leaving work productivity to be comparable between groups; mean improvement (95% CI) was 44.5% (38.4; 50.6) and 24.9% (15.8; 34.0), respectively. A similar trend was observed in activity impairment. Patients in both treatment groups who achieved effectiveness endpoints, cDAPSA LDA/remission, MDA, and VLDA had greater improvement in PROs and WPAI than patients who did not achieve these endpoints. CONCLUSIONS At 3 years, improvements in PROs following ustekinumab or TNFi treatment were generally comparable; however, TNFi-treated patients achieved a greater improvement in work productivity, although this group started from a lower baseline. Achievement of effectiveness endpoints, independent of treatment group, also improved PROs. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02627768. Registered on 11 December 2015.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This post-hoc analysis of PsABio (NCT02627768) evaluated safety, effectiveness and treatment persistence in patients < 60 and ≥ 60 years of age receiving ustekinumab over 3 years. METHODS Measures included adverse events (AE), clinical Disease Activity Index for Psoriatic Arthritis (cDAPSA) low disease activity (LDA) including remission, Psoriatic Arthritis Impact of Disease-12 (PsAID-12), Minimal Disease Activity, dactylitis, nail/skin involvement and time to treatment stop. Data were analysed descriptively. RESULTS Overall, 336 patients < 60 and 103 ≥ 60 years received ustekinumab, with a similar gender balance. A numerically lower proportion of younger patients reported at least one AE: 124/379 (32.7%) vs 47/115 (40.9%) for patients < 60 and ≥ 60 years, respectively. Serious AEs were low (< 10%) in both groups. At 6 months, the proportion of patients with cDAPSA LDA was 138/267 (51.7%) and 35/80 (43.8%) for patients < 60 and ≥ 60 years, respectively, with the effectiveness being maintained through 36 months. PsAID-12 mean scores reduced for both groups from a baseline mean of 5.73 and 5.61 for patients < 60 and ≥ 60 years, respectively, to 3.81 and 3.88, respectively, at 6 months, and 2.02 and 3.24, respectively, at 36 months. Regarding treatment persistence, 173/336 (51.5%) vs 47/103 (45.6%) patients < 60 and ≥ 60 years, respectively, stopped or switched treatment. CONCLUSION Fewer AEs were observed over 3 years for younger versus older patients with PsA. There were no clinically meaningful treatment response differences. Persistence was numerically higher in the older age group.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate real-world persistence and effectiveness of the IL-12/23 inhibitor, ustekinumab or a tumour necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi) for psoriatic arthritis over 3 years. METHODS PsABio (NCT02627768), a prospective, observational study, followed patients with PsA prescribed first-line to third-line ustekinumab or a TNFi. Persistence and effectiveness (achievement of clinical Disease Activity for PSA (cDAPSA) low disease activity (LDA)/remission and minimal disease activity/very LDA (MDA/VLDA)) were assessed every 6 months. Safety data were collected over 3 years. Analyses to compare the modes of action were adjusted on baseline differences by propensity scores (PS). RESULTS In 895 patients (mean age 49.8 years, 44.7% males), at 3 years, the proportion of patients still on their initial treatments was similar with ustekinumab (49.9%) and TNFi (47.8%). No difference was seen in the risk of stopping/switching; PS-adjusted hazard ratio (95% CI) for stopping/switching ustekinumab versus TNFi was 0.87 (0.68 to 1.11). In the overall population, cDAPSA LDA/remission was achieved in 58.6%/31.4% ustekinumab-treated and 69.8%/45.0% TNFi-treated patients; PS-adjusted ORs (95% CI) were 0.89 (0.63 to 1.26) for cDAPSA LDA; 0.72 (0.50 to 1.05) for remission. MDA/VLDA was achieved in 41.4%/19.2% of ustekinumab-treated and 54.2%/26.9% of TNFi-treated patients with overlapping PS-adjusted ORs. A greater percentage of TNFi-treated patients achieved effectiveness outcomes. Both treatments exhibited good long-term safety profiles, although ustekinumab-treated patients had a lower rate of adverse events (AEs) versus TNFi. CONCLUSION At 3 years, there was generally comparable persistence after ustekinumab or TNFi treatment, but AE rates were lower with ustekinumab.

Abstract
Omdat huisartsen steeds meer diagnostiek aanvragen, is zinnig en efficiënt aanvraaggedrag een speerpunt van beleid. Wij onderzochten voor 22 laboratoriumtests of huisartsen minder geneigd waren die test aan te vragen als ze de prijs in beeld kregen. Het totaal aantal aangevraagde tests daalde niet significant, maar het aantal laboratoriumbepalingen die afzonderlijk geprijsd waren, daalde met 6,1%. Dat maakt het aannemelijk dat het zichtbaar beprijzen van laboratoriumkosten wel enig effect heeft op het aanvraaggedrag.

Abstract
BackgroundDactylitis is a biomarker of disease severity in psoriatic arthritis (PsA) associated with functional disability, impaired quality of life and radiographic progression. The COSMOS study demonstrated the efficacy and safety of guselkumab (GUS), an IL-23 p19 subunit inhibitor (i), in patients (pts) with PsA who had inadequate response (IR; insufficient efficacy or intolerance) to 1–2 TNFi.1ObjectivesEvaluate the effect of GUS 100 mg Q8W on dactylitis, and assess the relationship between dactylitis resolution and improvement in other clinical outcomes, through 1 year in TNFi-IR PsA pts.MethodsPts received GUS or placebo (PBO); PBO pts crossed over to GUS at either Week (W) 16 (early escape [EE], n=45/96) or W24 (planned, n=51/96). Each of 20 digits was determined by the investigator to have no (0) to severe (3) dactylitis (Dactylitis Severity Scale [DSS]; total score: 0–60). Presence of dactylitis was defined by DSS score ≥1; complete or partial resolution was defined as a DSS score=0, or lower than baseline (BL), respectively. Change in DSS from BL at W24 was a secondary endpoint. Other clinical response outcomes including DAPSA LDA/remission, MDA and enthesitis resolution (Leeds Enthesitis Index score=0) were assessed by dactylitis resolution status. Both as observed and non-responder imputation (NRI; for missing data or EE) data are presented.ResultsOf 285 pts, 103 (36%; 67 GUS, 36 PBO) had dactylitis and 190 (67%) had enthesitis at BL. The majority of pts with dactylitis (76%) also had enthesitis. Pts with dactylitis had more severe joint and skin disease than those without (Table 1).Table 1.BL characteristics for TNFi-IR PsA pts with/without dactylitisWith dactylitisWithout dactylitisN103182Age, mean years (SD)48.3 (11.8)49.6 (12.5)Sex: male, %5048Years since PsA diagnosis; mean (SD)8.1 (7.2)8.6 (7.8)BMI, mean kg/m2 (SD)28.5 (5.8)30.1 (6.6)PsA characteristicsSwollen joint count, 0–66; mean (SD)12.3 (8.1)8.5 (4.8)Tender Joint count, 0–68; mean (SD)22.0 (12.9)19.1 (12.2)DAPSA score; mean (SD)48.6 (20.9)41.2 (16.8)Spondylitis with peripheral arthritis, %2824Enthesitis, %7662Psoriasis characteristics, mean (SD) PASI score, 0–7214.5 (12.7)8.8 (9.6) BSA, %23.4 (23.6)12.4 (17.1) DLQI score, 0–3014.1 (7.0)12.6 (6.9)In an as-observed analysis of pts with BL dactylitis, numerically more GUS- (55%) than PBO- (33%) treated pts achieved complete dactylitis resolution at W16. By W48, 80% of GUS-randomized pts achieved complete resolution (NRI: 57% at W24, 67% at W48; Figure 1).Among 12 GUS pts with persistent dactylitis at W48, 9 (75%) had partial resolution. The 36 PBO pts with dactylitis crossed over to GUS at W16 (n=23; EE) or W24 (n=13; planned). As observed, 88% of these PBO→GUS pts had complete resolution of dactylitis at W48 (Figure 1).Of 105 dactylitis-free pts at BL in the GUS arm, 8 (8%) developed dactylitis before W48: 4 at W4, 2 at W8 and 1 each at W16 and 36. Complete resolution was seen in 6 (75%) of the 8 pts by W48, when 1 further new-onset case occurred.Utilizing observed data among GUS-randomized pts with and without BL dactylitis, 32% and 34%, respectively, achieved MDA at W48. Respective response rates were 59% and 55% for DAPSA LDA, and 28% and 15% for DAPSA remission. In those who did and did not achieve complete dactylitis resolution at W48, respective response rates were 38% and 0% for MDA, 68% and 13% for DAPSA LDA, and 31% and 0% for DAPSA remission. Of 69 pts with both enthesitis and dactylitis at BL who continued to receive GUS through W48, GUS resolved both manifestations in 72%, neither in 16%, only enthesitis in 4%, and only dactylitis in 7% of pts.ConclusionComplete dactylitis resolution was achieved in ≥80% of pts who continued to receive GUS at W48, with partial resolution seen in most remaining pts in an as-observed analysis. Response rates increased through W48. Dactylitis resolution in this difficult-to-treat TNFi-IR PsA population was frequently associated with enthesitis resolution and achievement of clinical outcomes representing low levels of disease activity.References[1]Coates LC et al.

Abstract
BackgroundAccurate assessment of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) disease activity in clinical practice requires a feasible, continuous, multidimensional composite instrument to assess key domains of this heterogeneous disease. While currently available composite tools used in PsA, including the Group for Research and Assessment of Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis Composite Exercise (GRACE) and the PsA Disease Activity Score (PASDAS), are useful in clinical trials, their complexity and time required to complete limit their use in clinical practice.1 Abbreviated instruments, known as 3 visual analogue scale (VAS) and 4VAS, have demonstrated good performance in an observational study, but further testing was recommended.2ObjectivesExplore the correlation between 3VAS or 4VAS and GRACE, PASDAS and measures of quality of life using data from COSMOS.MethodsThe Phase 3b COSMOS study assessed guselkumab (GUS) 100mg Q8W versus placebo (PBO) in tumour necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi) inadequate response (IR, inadequate efficacy or intolerance) pts with active PsA.3 Pts who received PBO crossed over to GUS at either Week (W) 16 (early escape [EE], n=45/96) or W24 (planned, n=51/96). Each domain of the 3VAS (physician global, pt global, pt skin) and 4VAS (physician global, pt pain, pt joint, pt skin) was evaluated using a 0–10 VAS (higher score=more active disease), and calculated mean scores were plotted over time in apt-continuer population (those with W0 and W48 data).

All indices, including the 3VAS/4VAS, allowed early discrimination between the GUS and PBO cohorts. The strong correlation between 3VAS/4VAS and GRACE/PASDAS in this pt population is promising and highlights that abbreviated composite indices can provide an accurate assessment of disease activity that may, because of better feasibility, lead to a wider use of such instruments and thus improve pt care. As a next step, thresholds for disease states should be further evaluated.References[1]Tillett W et al. J Rheumatol Suppl 2020;96:11–8[2]Tillett W et al.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We evaluated real-world treatment persistence and effectiveness at 1 year following initiation of IL-12/23 inhibitor ustekinumab or a tumour necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi) for psoriatic arthritis (PsA). METHODS PsABio (NCT02627768), a prospective, observational study, followed patients with PsA prescribed first-line to third-line ustekinumab or TNFi. Drug persistence, effectiveness (achievement of clinical Disease Activity Index for Psoriatic Arthritis (cDAPSA) low disease activity (LDA)/remission and minimal disease activity/very low disease activity (MDA/VLDA)), and safety were assessed every 6 months. In addition to descriptive statistics, propensity score (PS)-adjusted comparisons across cohorts were performed. RESULTS At 1 year, overall persistence was similar in the ustekinumab (n=317/438, 72.4%) and TNFi (n=321/455, 70.5%) groups. PS-adjusted HR (95% CI) for stopping/switching ustekinumab versus TNFi was 0.82 (0.60; 1.13). cDAPSA LDA (including remission)/remission was achieved in 55.9%/22.1% of ustekinumab-treated and 67.1%/31.7% of TNFi-treated patients; PS-adjusted ORs (95% CI) were 0.80 (0.57; 1.10) for cDAPSA LDA and 0.73 (0.49; 1.07) for remission. MDA/VLDA was achieved in 34.2%/11.9% of ustekinumab-treated and 43.1%/12.6% of TNFi-treated patients; PS-adjusted ORs (95% CI) were 0.89 (0.63; 1.26) for MDA and 0.90 (0.54; 1.49) for VLDA. The safety profiles were similar in both groups. CONCLUSION In the real-world PsABio Study, after 1 year of treatment, although unadjusted persistence was numerically slightly higher for ustekinumab versus TNFi and unadjusted effectiveness was numerically slightly higher for TNFi versus ustekinumab, the PS-adjusted comparisons demonstrated comparable overall persistence, effectiveness and safety for both modes of action in PsA.

Abstract
BackgroundThe Phase 3b COSMOS study (NCT03796858) demonstrated the efficacy and safety of guselkumab (GUS), an IL-23 p19 subunit inhibitor, in patients (pts) with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) who had inadequate response (IR; insufficient efficacy or intolerance) to 1–2 tumour necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi).1ObjectivesAssess the efficacy of GUS 100 mg Q8W in TNFi-IR pts through 1 year by using and comparing6 multi-domain composite indices validated in PsA.MethodsIn total, 285 pts (189 GUS, 96 placebo [PBO]) were enrolled in COSMOS; mean age was 49 years and mean disease duration was 8.4 years.1 Pts who received PBO crossed over to GUS at either Week (W) 16 (early escape, n=45/96) or W24 (planned, n=51/96). PsA Disease Activity Score (PASDAS), GRAppa Composite scorE (GRACE), Disease Activity Index for PsA (DAPSA), modified Composite Psoriatic Disease Activity Index (mCPDAI, excludes BASDAI), PsA Response Criteria (PsARC), and Minimal Disease Activity (MDA) were analysed (thresholds as published2,3). As-observed data are presented at baseline (BL), W24 and W48, without imputation of missing data.ResultsOverall, 167/189 (88%) GUS and 83/96 (86%) PBO→GUS pts completed the study through W44. Pts had active disease, with similar BL mean values for PASDAS, GRACE, DAPSA and mCPDAI between GUS and PBO groups (Table 1). Across these indices, GUS pts demonstrated robust improvements (45–62%) in mean scores from BL to W48 (Table 1). PBO pts who crossed over to GUS at W16 or W24 also showed rapid improvement in their index scores, with mean values and % improvement at W48 consistent with those observed in pts randomized to GUS at BL (Table 1).Table 1.As observed mean values (± standard deviation) for composite indicesPASDASGRACEDAPSAmCPDAIGUS Q8WPBO→ GUSGUS Q8WPBO→GUSGUS Q8WPBO→GUSGUS Q8WPBO→GUSBLN6.4±1.01876.2±0.9966.0±1.11885.6±1.09645.5 ±19.9 18940.6 ±15.8967.3±2.21877.1±2.2 96W24N4.3±1.51824.8±1.3923.7±1.61834.3 ±1.49323.7 ±17.9 18326.9 ±17.5934.6±2.31825.3 ±2.0 92W48N3.5±1.51613.6±1.4842.8±1.71652.9±1.68417.5 ±16.7 16116.3 ±11.9843.7±2.41653.8±1.984% improvement from BL at W4845.341.953.348.261.559.949.346.5Among the 4 indices with defined disease states/therapeutic thresholds for low disease activity (LDA) (Figure 1), those focusing on joints (PsARC [4 components] and DAPSA [5 components]) resulted in the highest response rates (range, 50–80%); LDA according to GRACE (8 items, including skin) and PASDAS (8 items, focus on musculoskeletal with no skin assessment) was attained less frequently (range, 38–44%). Using the PsARC, 50% of GUS pts responded as early as W8. Response rates among GUS-treated pts generally did not plateau by W48 (Figure 1). At W48, 33% and 30% of GUS and PBO→GUS pts, respectively, achieved a status of MDA.Figure 1.ConclusionGUS provided robust and substantial benefits to pts with active TNFi-IR PsA across multiple domains. Importantly, rates of achieving low levels of disease activity continued to increase through the duration of the study without an observable plateau at W48. Thresholds for DAPSA and PsARC response were easier to achieve than comprehensive indices with more domains that are required to improve simultaneously (eg GRACE, PASDAS, MDA). GUS performed well regardless of the focus of the composite indices (joints, skin, enthesitis, dactylitis, or patient-reported outcomes). Together, these findings support the role of GUS as an effective treatment option for the diverse domains of PsA.References[1]Coates LC et al.

Abstract
BackgroundGuselkumab (GUS), a selective IL-23p19 subunit inhibitor, demonstrated efficacy and a favorable safety profile in active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) in the Phase (Ph)21, Ph3 (DISCOVER [D]-1&2)2,3, and Ph3b COSMOS4 randomized controlled trials (RCTs).ObjectivesAssess GUS safety through 2 years (Y) in biologic (bio)-naïve and tumor necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi)-experienced (exp) active PsA patients (pts) pooled across 4 RCTs (Week [W] 56: Ph2 and COSMOS; W60: D1; W112: D2).MethodsEligible pts in COSMOS had inadequate response to 1 or 2 prior TNFi; 9% of Ph2 pts and 30% of D1 pts had 1 or 2 prior TNFi; D2 pts were bio-naïve. Incidence rates of adverse events (AEs) are summarized among all treated pts for the placebo (PBO)-controlled (W0-24) and active treatment periods through 2Y (max duration of exposure 100 W) according to actual treatment received, calculated as the number of events per 100 pt-Y of follow-up (PY), along with 95% confidence intervals (CI). Gastrointestinal (GI)-related serious AEs (SAEs) were identified using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) system-organ class; major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE; predefined as MI, Stroke, or CV death) and opportunistic infections (OIs) were identified through medical review.ResultsAcross the 4 RCTs, 1508 pts with active PsA received GUS 100 mg every 4 weeks (Q4W) or Q8W and were followed for a median of 1.2 Y, representing 2125 PY. In the overall population (N=1554), which includes PBO-treated pts that discontinued study agent prior to W24, 1138 pts were bio-naïve and 416 pts were TNFi-exp. Among all treated pts, the overall GUS safety profile was generally consistent with that of PBO through W24; rates remained low through 2Y of GUS (Table 1). The GUS safety profile was similar to that observed with PBO within the bio-naïve and TNFi-exp cohorts through W24. Incidence rates of AEs were generally consistent between cohorts in GUS-treated pts; whereas, TNFi-exp PBO-treated pts had more SAEs, study agent d/c due to AEs, and serious infections than bio-naïve PBO pts (Figure).Table 1.Overall Treatment-emergent AEsPBO-controlled (W0-24)aThrough up to 2YPBOb(N=517)GUS Q8W (N=664)GUS Q4W (N=373)Combined GUS (N=1037)GUS Q8W (N=664)GUS Q4W (N=373)Combined GUSc(N=1508)Total (median) PY230 (0.5)305 (0.5)172 (0.5)478 (0.5)941 (1.1)645 (2.1)2125 (1.2)Events/100 PY (95% CI)AEs223 (204, 243)233 (216, 250)223 (201, 246)229 (216, 243)164 (156, 172)139 (130, 148)146 (141, 151)SAEs8.7 (5.3, 13)4.9 (2.8, 8.1)5.2 (2.4, 9.9)5.0 (3.2, 7.5)6.4 (4.9, 8.2)4.7 (3.1, 6.6)5.7 (4.7, 6.8)AEs leading to study agent d/c4.4 (2.1, 8.0)3.6 (1.8, 6.5)7.0 (3.6, 12.2)4.8 (3.1, 7.2)2.6 (1.6, 3.8)2.9 (1.8, 4.6)2.7 (2.1, 3.5)Infections59 (50, 70)56 (48, 65)57 (47, 70)57 (50, 64)43 (38, 47)37 (33, 42)39 (36, 42)Serious Infections2.2 (0.71, 5.1)0.33 (0.01, 1.8)1.7 (0.36, 5.1)0.84 (0.23, 2.1)1.7 (0.97, 2.8)0.77 (0.25, 1.8)1.5 (1.0, 2.1)Malignancy0.44 (0.01, 2.4)0.98 (0.20, 2.9)0.00 (0.00, 1.7)0.63 (0.13, 1.8)0.42 (0.12, 1.1)0.00 (0.00, 0.46)0.28 (0.10, 0.61)MACE0.44 (0.01, 2.4)0.33 (0.01, 1.8)0.58 (0.01, 3.2)0.42 (0.05, 1.5)0.21 (0.03, 0.77)0.46 (0.10, 1.4)0.24 (0.08, 0.55)GI-related SAEs1.3 (0.27, 3.8)0.33 (0.01, 1.8)0.00 (0.00, 1.7)0.21 (0.01, 1.2)0.32 (0.07, 0.93)0.46 (0.10, 1.4)0.28 (0.10, 0.61)OIs0.00 (0.00, 1.3)0.00 (0.00, 0.98)0.00 (0.00, 1.7)0.00 (0.00, 0.63)0.21 (0.03, 0.77)0.00 (0.00, 0.46)0.14 (0.03, 0.41)MedDRA Version 23.1.a Includes safety follow-up data through 2Y for pts who d/c study agent prior to W24 and did not receive any study agent at or after W24.b Includes data prior to GUS in PBO pts who switched from PBO to GUS.c Includes PBO to GUS cross-over at W24.ConclusionThe favorable GUS safety profile demonstrated through W24 persisted through 2Y across bio-naïve and TNFi-exp pts.References[1]Deodhar A, et al.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare real-world persistence, effectiveness and tolerability of ustekinumab versus TNF inhibitors (TNFi) in psoriatic arthritis (PsA). METHODS One-year data from Italian subjects enrolled in the PsABio study (PsA patients receiving 1st- to 3rd-line treatment with ustekinumab or TNFi) were evaluated. Treatment persistence was analysed using Kaplan-Meier curves; hazard ratios (HR) of stopping treatment, and the corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI), were computed through Cox regression models. Proportions of patients reaching clinical effectiveness endpoints were analysed using logistic regression, including propensity score (PS) adjustment for imbalanced baseline covariates, and non-response imputation if treatment was stopped/switched. RESULTS Among 222 participants with follow-up data (effectiveness set), 101 received ustekinumab and 121 TNFi. In the ustekinumab group, 74.3% continued treatment up to 12±3 months compared to 63.6% in the TNFi group. Ustekinumab showed better persistence than TNFi, overall and in specific subgroups (females, monotherapy without methotrexate, BMI <25 or >30 kg/m2, patients receiving ustekinumab as 2nd-line treatment instead of a second TNFi). Overall, the PS-adjusted HR of treatment discontinuation was 0.46 (95% CI: 0.26-0.82) for ustekinumab vs. TNFi. cDAPSA LDA/remission was achieved in 43.5% of ustekinumab and 43.6% of TNFi-treated patients, while MDA was achieved in 24.2% and 28.0% of patients, respectively. After PS adjustment, odds ratios of clinical effectiveness did not differ significantly. Both treatments showed an acceptable safety profile. CONCLUSIONS This prospective, real-life study found a better persistence of ustekinumab than TNFi in PsA patients. At 1 year, both treatments showed similar effectiveness.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate efficacy and safety of guselkumab, an anti-interleukin-23p19-subunit antibody, in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) with prior inadequate response (IR) to tumour necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi). METHODS Adults with active PsA (≥3 swollen and ≥3 tender joints) who discontinued ≤2 TNFi due to IR (lack of efficacy or intolerance) were randomised (2:1) to subcutaneous guselkumab 100 mg or placebo at week 0, week 4, then every 8 weeks (Q8W) through week 44. Patients receiving placebo crossed over to guselkumab at week 24. The primary (ACR20) and key secondary (change in HAQ-DI, ACR50, change in SF-36 PCS and PASI100) endpoints, at week 24, underwent fixed-sequence testing (two-sided α=0.05). Adverse events (AEs) were assessed through week 56. RESULTS Among 285 participants (female (52%), one (88%) or two (12%) prior TNFi), 88% of 189 guselkumab and 86% of 96 placebo→guselkumab patients completed study agent through week 44. A statistically significantly higher proportion of patients receiving guselkumab (44.4%) than placebo (19.8%) achieved ACR20 (%difference (95% CI): 24.6 (14.1 to 35.2); multiplicity-adjusted p<0.001) at week 24. Guselkumab was superior to placebo for each key secondary endpoint (multiplicity-adjusted p<0.01). ACR20 response (non-responder imputation) in the guselkumab group was 58% at week 48; >80% of week 24 responders maintained response at week 48. Through week 24, serious AEs/serious infections occurred in 3.7%/0.5% of 189 guselkumab-randomised and 3.1%/0% of 96 placebo-randomised patients; the guselkumab safety profile was similar through week 56, with no deaths or opportunistic infections. CONCLUSION Guselkumab significantly improved joint and skin manifestations and physical function in patients with TNFi-IR PsA. A favourable benefit-risk profile was demonstrated through 1 year. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT03796858.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate 6-month effectiveness of ustekinumab versus tumour necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi), analysing predictors of low disease activity (LDA)/remission. METHODS PsABio is a prospective, observational cohort study of patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) at 92 sites in eight European countries, who received first-line to third-line ustekinumab or a TNFi. Comparative achievement at 6 months of clinical Disease Activity Index for Psoriatic Arthritis (cDAPSA) LDA/remission, and minimal disease activity (MDA)/very LDA using propensity score (PS)-adjusted multivariate logistic regression was assessed. RESULTS In the final analysis set of 868 participants with 6-month follow-up data (ustekinumab, n=426; TNFi, n=442), with long-standing disease and a high mean cDAPSA score (31.0 vs 29.8, respectively), proportions of patients in ustekinumab/TNFi treatment groups achieving cDAPSA LDA at 6 months were 45.7%/50.7%. cDAPSA remission was achieved in 14.9%/19.2%, and MDA in 26.4%/30.8% of patients. PS-adjusted odds ratios (OR; 95% confidence interval (CI)) of reaching cDAPSA LDA and MDA were 0.73 (0.46 to 1.15) and 0.87 (0.61 to 1.25) with ustekinumab versus TNFi, indicating no significant difference. High baseline body mass index or high cDAPSA were associated with a lower chance (OR (95% CI)) of reaching cDAPSA LDA with TNFi (0.94 (0.89 to 0.99) and 0.64 (0.52 to 0.79), respectively). Predictive factors were similar to previously published evidence, with cDAPSA and 12-item Psoriatic Arthritis Impact of Disease scores and chronic widespread pain at baseline appearing as new risk factors for unfavourable outcome. Safety data were similar between groups. CONCLUSION Treatment targets were reached similarly after 6 months of treatment with ustekinumab and TNFi.

Abstract
Background:There are still unmet needs in the treatment of psoriatic arthritis (PsA), including in terms of treatment persistence, which is a function of effectiveness, safety and patient satisfaction. Ustekinumab (UST) was the first new biologic drug to be developed for the treatment of PsA after tumour necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi).Objectives:To compare treatment persistence, effectiveness and safety of UST and TNFi in Italian patients within the PsABio cohort.Methods:PsABio (NCT02627768) is an observational study of 1st/2nd/3rd-line UST or TNFi treatment in PsA in 8 European countries. The current analysis set includes 222 eligible patients treated in 15 Italian centres, followed to Month 12 (±3 months). Treatment persistence/risk of stopping was analysed using Kaplan−Meier (KM) and Cox regression analysis. Proportions of patients reaching minimal disease activity (MDA)/very low disease activity (VLDA) and clinical Disease Activity Index for PsA (cDAPSA) low disease activity (LDA)/remission were analysed using logistic regression, including propensity score (PS) adjustment for imbalanced baseline covariates, and non-response imputation of effectiveness endpoints if treatment was stopped/switched before 1 year. Last observation carried forward data are reported.Results:Of patients starting UST and TNFi, 75/101 (74.3%) and 77/121 (63.6%), respectively, persisted with treatment at 1 year. The observed mean persistence was 410 days for UST and 363 days for TNFi. KM curves and PS-adjusted hazard ratios confirmed significantly higher persistence (hazard ratio [95% confidence interval (CI)]) for UST versus TNFi overall (0.46 [0.26; 0.82]; Figure 1). Persistence was also higher for UST than TNFi in patients receiving monotherapy without methotrexate (0.31 [0.15; 0.63]), in females (0.41 [0.20; 0.83]), and in patients with body mass index (BMI) <25 kg/m2 (0.34 [0.14; 0.87]) or >30 kg/m2 (0.19 [0.06; 0.54]). There was no significant difference in persistence between treatments in patients with BMI 25−30 kg/m2. While patients receiving 1st- and 3rd-line UST or TNFi showed similar risk of discontinuation (0.60 [0.27; 1.29] and 0.36 [0.10; 1.25], respectively), patients receiving 2nd-line UST showed better persistence than those receiving 2nd-line TNFi (0.33 [0.13; 0.87]). Other factors added to the PS-adjusted Cox model did not show significant effects. In patients with available follow-up data, the mean (standard deviation) baseline cDAPSA was 26.3 (15.4) for UST and 23.5 (12.3) for TNFi; at 1-year follow-up, 43.5% of UST- and 43.6% of TNFi-treated patients reached cDAPSA LDA/remission. MDA was reached in 24.2% of UST- and 28.0% of TNFi-treated patients, and VLDA in 12.5% of UST- and 10.2% of TNFi-treated patients. After PS adjustment (stoppers/switchers as non-responders), odds ratios (95% CI) at 1 year did not differ significantly between UST and TNFi groups for reaching cDAPSA LDA/remission (1.08 [0.54; 2.15]), MDA (0.96 [0.45; 2.05]) or VLDA (0.98 [0.35; 2.76]). In total, 23 (20.4%) patients reported ≥1 treatment emergent adverse event with UST and 30 (22.2%) with TNFi; 6 (5.3%) and 10 (7.4%) patients, respectively, discontinued treatment because of an adverse event.Conclusion:In the Italian PsABio cohort, UST had better overall persistence compared with TNFi, as well as in specific subgroups: females, patients on monotherapy without methotrexate, with BMI <25 or >30 kg/m2, and patients receiving UST as 2nd-line treatment. At 1 year, both treatments showed similar effectiveness, as measured by cDAPSA responses and MDA/VLDA achievement.Acknowledgements:This study was funded by Janssen.

Abstract
Background:Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) negatively impacts patients’ (pts) quality of life (QoL), with a high burden of pain, fatigue and psychological distress. The 12-item Psoriatic Arthritis Impact of Disease questionnaire (PsAID-12) is a validated measure of pt-reported disease impact.Objectives:To analyse PsAID-12 score changes in the overall population and specific subgroups of interest, and assess correlation of these changes using Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability Index (HAQ-DI).Methods:PsABio (NCT02627768) is a multinational, prospective, observational study in pts with PsA receiving ustekinumab (UST) or a tumour necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi) as a 1st/2nd/3rd-line biologic. Descriptive statistics, including 95% CI, are presented at baseline (BL) and 1 year. Linear regression, including propensity score (PS) adjustment for BL covariates, was used to compare change in PsAID-12 total from BL to 1 year between treatments. The relationship between changes in PsAID-12 and HAQ-DI was investigated using Spearman’s correlation.Results:Data were available for 438 UST and 455 TNFi pts. From BL to 1 year, significant improvements were seen in total PsAID-12 scores and in all domains with both treatments (Figure 1). PS-adjusted treatment comparison showed no difference in total PsAID-12 improvement (regression coefficient [95% CI]: 0.14 [-0.22; 0.51], p=0.4433), or in any domain, except skin problems, which improved significantly more with UST than TNFi (-0.55 [-1.04, -0.06], p=0.0277). Improvements in PsAID-12 and HAQ-DI showed strong positive correlation with both treatments (UST: r=0.63, p<0.0001; TNFi: r=0.70, p<0.0001). Effectiveness was demonstrated with UST and TNFi in subgroups of interest, including biologic treatment line, sex and psoriasis extent (Table 1. next page).Conclusion:Treatment with IL-12/23 (UST) or TNF inhibitors significantly improved pt-reported disease impact at 1 year. PS-adjusted PsAID-12 improvements did not differ significantly between treatments, except skin problems (better with UST). Improvements in disease impact and physical functioning (HAQ-DI) were strongly correlated, emphasising the effect of these biologics on QoL in PsA pts.Figure 1.Table 1.PsAID-12 scores by BL characteristic subgroupMean (95% CI)USTTNFiBLUnadjusted change from BL at 1 year (LOCF)BLUnadjusted change from BL at 1 year (LOCF)Biologic line1st5.51(5.19; 5.82)-2.14(-2.49; -1.79)5.44(5.15; 5.72)-2.41(-2.72; -2.09)2nd6.05(5.69; 6.41)-2.14(-2.55; -1.72)5.57(5.19; 5.95)-2.37(-2.79; -1.94)3rd5.84(5.33; 6.35)-1.81(-2.45; -1.17)5.34(4.52; 6.15)-1.89(-2.62; -1.16)Sex*Male5.27(4.95; 5.59)-2.35(-2.70; -1.99)4.89(4.56; 5.23)-2.49(-2.83; -2.15)Female6.14(5.86; 6.43)-1.86(-2.20; -1.52)5.95(5.67; 6.23)-2.20(-2.53; -1.87)EnthesitisYes5.95(5.66; 6.24)-2.19(-2.51; -1.86)5.89(5.61; 6.17)-2.65(-2.98; -2.31)No5.51(5.19; 5.83)-1.98(-2.36; -1.59)4.99(4.65; 5.32)-2.02(-2.35; -1.68)Psoriasis BSA, %<35.66(5.32; 6.00)-1.60(-2.03; -1.18)4.97(4.63; 5.31)-1.89(-2.25; -1.52)3–105.44(5.05; 5.83)-2.16(-2.59; -1.74)5.78(5.43; 6.14)-2.99(-3.38; -2.59)>106.15(5.70; 6.60)-2.93(-3.43; -2.43)6.13(5.55; 6.71)-2.86(-3.49; -2.23)Joint involvement†Mono/oligoarticular5.07(4.56; 5.58)-1.96(-2.47; -1.45)4.82(4.38; 5.25)-2.18(-2.66; -1.70)Polyarticular5.98(5.75; 6.22)-2.21(-2.51; -1.92)5.78(5.52; 6.04)-2.47(-2.75; -2.18)FiRST score*<55.15(4.87; 5.44)-2.18(-2.50; -1.87)5.10(4.83; 5.36)-2.44(-2.71; -2.16)≥56.72(6.43; 7.00)-1.95(-2.38; -1.53)6.49(6.15; 6.83)-2.09(-2.57; -1.61)*At BL, female pts and pts with FiRST score ≥5 (chronic widespread pain) were significantly more impacted than male pts and pts with FiRST score <5, and remained significantly more impacted at 1 year. †Polyarticular pts were significantly more impacted at BL, but not 1 year.BSA, body surface area; CI, confidence interval; FiRST, Fibromyalgia Rapid Screening Tool; LOCF, last observation carried forwardAcknowledgements:This study was funded by Janssen.Disclosure of Interests:Laure Gossec Consultant of: AbbVie, Amgen, Bioepis, Biogen, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celgene, Galapagos, Gilead, Janssen, Lilly, Novartis, Pfizer, Samsung, Sanofi-Aventis, UCB, Grant/research support from: Amgen, Galapagos, Janssen, Lilly, Pfizer, Sandoz, Sanofi, Stefan Siebert Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Amgen (previously Celgene), Biogen, Janssen, Novartis, UCB, Consultant of: AbbVie, Janssen, UCB, Grant/research support from: Amgen (previously Celgene), Boehringer Ingelheim, Bristol-Myers Squibb, GSK, Janssen, Novartis, Pfizer, UCB, Paul Bergmans Shareholder of: Johnson & Johnson, Employee of: Janssen, Kurt de Vlam Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Amgen, Eli Lilly, Novartis, UCB, Paid instructor for: Amgen, Galapagos, UCB, Consultant of: Eli Lilly, Galapagos, Johnson & Johnson, Novartis, UCB, Grant/research support from: Celgene, Elisa Gremese: None declared, Beatriz Joven-Ibáñez Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Celgene, Janssen, MSD, Novartis, Pfizer, Tatiana Korotaeva Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Amgen, Biocad, Lilly, Janssen, MSD, Novartis, Novartis-Pfizer, Sandoz, UCB, Consultant of: AbbVie, Amgen, Biocad, Lilly, Janssen, MSD, Novartis, Novartis-Sandoz, Pfizer, UCB, Grant/research support from: Pfizer, Wim Noel Employee of: Janssen, Michael Nurmohamed Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celgene, Eli Lilly, Janssen, Menarini, MSD, Mundipharma, Pfizer, Roche, Sanofi, UCB, Consultant of: AbbVie, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celgene, Eli Lilly, Galapagos, Janssen, Menarini, MSD, Mundipharma, Pfizer, Roche, Sanofi, UCB, Grant/research support from: AbbVie, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celgene, Eli Lilly, Galapagos, Gilead, Janssen, Menarini, MSD, Mundipharma, Pfizer, Roche, Sanofi, UCB, Petros Sfikakis Consultant of: AbbVie, Actelion, Boehringer Ingelheim, Enorasis, Farmaserv-Lilly, Genesis, Gilead, Pfizer, MSD, Novartis, UCB, Grant/research support from: AbbVie, Amgen, Boehringer Ingelheim, Faran, Janssen, Pfizer, Roche, Elke Theander Employee of: Janssen, Josef S.

Abstract
Background:Guselkumab (GUS), a selective monoclonal antibody targeting the interleukin-23p19 subunit, has demonstrated efficacy in 2 pivotal Ph3 psoriatic arthritis (PsA) studies (DISCOVER-1,1 DISCOVER-22).Objectives:Evaluate GUS efficacy and safety in PsA patients (pts) with inadequate response (IR) to tumor-necrosis-factor inhibition (TNFi) through Week24 (W24) of the Ph3b COSMOS study.Methods:In this randomized, double-blind, placebo (PBO)-controlled trial, 285 pts with active PsA (≥3 swollen & ≥3 tender joints) who demonstrated lack of benefit or intolerance to 1-2 TNFi were randomized 2:1 to subcutaneous GUS 100mg (n=189) or PBO (n=96) at W0, W4, then every 8 weeks (Q8W) through W44 (with PBO crossover to GUS at W24). At W16, pts who met early escape (EE) criteria (<5% improvement in both tender & swollen joint counts) also could switch from PBO to GUS. The primary efficacy endpoint was ACR20 response at W24 among randomized, treated pts. Pts missing ACR20 data at W24 or who met treatment failure criteria (including meeting EE criteria at W16) were considered nonresponders (NRs). Subgroup analyses were performed to assess consistency of primary treatment effect based on demographics, disease characteristics, and medication use at baseline. Prespecified sensitivity analyses included ‘Per-Protocol’ (PP) (excluded pts with major protocol deviations) and ‘EE-Correction’ (included pts incorrectly routed to EE) analyses. Adverse events (AEs) were summarized by treatment received.Results:Baseline characteristics were similar across GUS and PBO pts, though a higher proportion of females and more severe joint symptoms were seen in the GUS group. At W24, 44.4% of GUS vs 19.8% of PBO pts achieved ACR20 (p<0.001) (Figure). GUS was superior to PBO for all major secondary endpoints. Efficacy was consistent across subgroups defined by baseline characteristics, including in pts who discontinued prior TNFi use due to inadequate efficacy (84% GUS vs 81% PBO) and safety (16% GUS vs 19% PBO) (Table). 20 pts (12 GUS, 8 PBO) were incorrectly routed to EE. Results of PP (48.8% vs 23.8%) and EE-correction (48.1% vs 19.8%) sensitivity analyses were consistent with the primary analysis (Figure). AEs were similar between GUS- and PBO-treated pts (Table).Table 1.Baseline characteristics of, and adverse events reported by, randomized and treated COSMOS ptsGUS 100 mg Q8W (N=189)PBO (N=96) Age, y4949 Sex, Female54%46% Duration of PsA, y8.38.7 Body mass index, kg/m22931a Swollen (0-66) / tender (0-68) joint count10 / 219 / 18 Pt pain / Pt global arthritis / Physician global disease, 0-10 cm VAS6.5 / 6.5 / 6.96.0 / 6.2 / 6.4 Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index, 0-31.3b1.2 C-reactive protein, mg/dL1.2b1.2 Methotrexate use at baseline56%53% Psoriatic body surface area, %17.913.4 Number of prior TNFi: 1 / 288% / 12%89% / 11% Reason for prior TNFi discontinuation: Efficacy / Safety84% / 16%* 81% / 19%*Pts with ≥1 AE / SAE37% / 3%48% / 3%Pts with ≥1 infection / serious infection18% / 0%20% / 0%Pts with ≥1 AE leading to study agent discontinuation2%2%Pts with ≥1 malignancy0.4%0Pts with ≥1 injection-site reaction2%1%Data shown are mean or %. aN=95; bN=188. *Missing for 1 pt.

Abstract
Background:Sex-related differences in biologic treatment of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) have been insufficiently studied in a real-world setting.Objectives:To evaluate impact of sex on PsA, treatment effectiveness and persistence after 1 year of biologic treatment.Methods:PsABio (NCT02627768) is a multinational, prospective real-world study in PsA with ustekinumab (UST) or TNF inhibitor (TNFi) as 1st/2nd/3rd-line biologic. Males and females were compared for disease activity and patient-reported outcomes. Descriptive statistics including 95% CI at baseline (BL) and 12 (±3) months (LOCF) follow-up are presented. Intra-sex comparisons between UST and TNFi cohorts were done by logistic regression analysis, with propensity score adjustment for imbalanced BL covariates and non-response imputation for stopping/switching biologic drugs.Results:Among 494 females and 399 males, age and disease duration were similar. However, differences in disease characteristics at BL were considerable: females had worse scores than males for cDAPSA, HAQ-DI, EQ5D VAS, PsAID-12, pain and comorbidities. At 1 year, similar improvements from BL were observed between sexes, but females remained in a worse health state than males (Table). Achievement of composite endpoints MDA (including VLDA) and cDAPSA LDA (including remission) was high overall (38.6% and 61.5%, respectively), but reached by >2-fold and 3-fold more males than females, respectively. HAQ-DI scores remained worse for females at 1 year (0.95) than for males at BL (0.93). Enthesitis resolution was achieved in 46% of females and 75% of males. No significant differences in effectiveness of UST vs TNFi were detected between sexes (Figure). Kaplan–Meier estimated drug persistence was significantly better in males than females (log-rank p=0.0007). There was no intra-sex difference between UST or TNFi in risk of stopping/switching in males or females.Table 1.Patient and disease characteristics at BL and 1-year by sexBL femaleBL male1-year LOCF female1-year LOCF maleBiologic line, %1st4655N/AN/A2nd34333rd2013Co-treatment, %MTX37.434.3N/AN/ACorticosteroids34.632.1NSAIDs59.964.4Antidepressant7.92.5Comorbidities, %N/AN/ACardiovascular69.059.4metabolic syndrome40.131.7Obesity35.223.7Anxiety/depression12.67.5Smoking status, %N/AN/ANever54.941.9Past16.826.6Current22.724.3Unknown5.77.3Joint counts, nSwollen 666.1 (5.4; 6.9)5.6 (4.7; 6.4)2.2 (1.7; 2.6)1.3 (1.0; 1.6)Tender 6813.2 (12.0; 14.4)10.0 (8.9; 11.1)6.0 (5.2; 6.7)3.6 (2.9; 4.3)cDAPSA score, mean (95% CI)cDAPSA, %32.5 (30.5; 34.4)26.9 (24.9; 29.0)15.9 (14.5; 17.2)10.3 (9.0; 11.6)Remission1.0 (0.3; 2.6)4.0 (2.1; 6.7)17.8 (14.1; 22.0)37.7 (32.4; 43.2)Low6.7 (4.4; 9.7)15.0 (11.3; 19.4)33.0 (28.3; 37.9)36.5 (31.3; 42.0)Moderate38.9 (34.0; 44.0)42.6 (37.2; 48.2)34.3 (29.6; 39.2)16.9 (13.0; 21.4)High53.4 (48.2; 58.4)38.3 (33.0; 43.9)14.9 (11.6; 18.9)8.9 (6.0; 12.5)MDA2.3 (1.0; 4.3)7.7 (5.1; 11.2)27.5 (23.1; 32.1)52.2 (46.6; 57.7)VLDA0.00.9 (0.2; 2.6)6.2 (4.1; 9.0)19.7 (15.6; 24.3)HAQ-DI score1.31 (1.25; 1.37)0.93 (0.86; 1.00)0.95 (0.89; 1.02)0.53 (0.47; 0.59)PsAID-12 score6.1 (5.9; 6.3)5.1 (4.9; 5.3)4.0 (3.8; 4.3)2.7 (2.4; 2.9)EQ5D VAS score48.6 (46.6; 50.5)53.8 (51.6; 55.9)59.2 (56.9; 61.4)68.0 (65.5; 70.4)Enthesitis50.7 (45.9; 55.5)48.1 (42.8; 53.3)32.6 (28.3; 37.3)18.0 (14.1; 22.3)Dactylitis15.6 (12.4; 19.3)24.7 (20.4; 29.3)5.7 (3.8; 8.3)4.8 (2.9; 7.4)Data are % (95% CI) unless indicated otherwise.

More comprehensive treatment before severe disease manifestations evolve may improve management in females.Acknowledgements:This study was funded by JanssenDisclosure of Interests:Irene van der Horst-Bruinsma Consultant of: AbbVie, Lilly, MSD, Novartis, UCB, Grant/research support from: AbbVie, MSD, Pfizer, UCB, Michael Nurmohamed Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celgene, Eli Lilly, Janssen, Menarini, MSD, Mundipharma, Pfizer, Roche, Sanofi, UCB, Consultant of: AbbVie, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celgene, Eli Lilly, Galapagos, Janssen, Menarini, MSD, Mundipharma, Pfizer, Roche, Sanofi, UCB, Grant/research support from: AbbVie, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celgene, Eli Lilly, Galapagos, Gilead, Janssen, Menarini, MSD, Mundipharma, Pfizer, Roche, Sanofi, UCB, Arno Van Kuijk Consultant of: AbbVie, Janssen, LEO Pharma, Novartis, Grant/research support from: Janssen, Stefan Siebert Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Amgen (previously Celgene), Biogen, Janssen, Novartis, UCB, Consultant of: AbbVie, Janssen, UCB, Grant/research support from: Amgen (previously Celgene), Boehringer Ingelheim, Bristol-Myers Squibb, GSK, Janssen, Novartis, Pfizer, UCB, Paul Bergmans Shareholder of: Johnson & Johnson, Employee of: Janssen, Kurt de Vlam Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Amgen, Eli Lilly, Novartis, UCB, Paid instructor for: Amgen, Galapagos, UCB, Consultant of: Eli Lilly, Johnson &Johnson, Novartis Galapagos, UCB, Grant/research support from: Celgene, Elisa Gremese: None declared, Beatriz Joven-Ibáñez Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Celgene, Janssen, MSD, Novartis, Pfizer, Tatiana Korotaeva Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Amgen, Biocad, Janssen, Lilly, MSD, Novartis, Novartis-Sandoz, Pfizer, UCB, Consultant of: AbbVie, Amgen, Biocad, Janssen, Lilly, MSD, Novartis, Novartis-Sandoz, Pfizer, UCB, Grant/research support from: Pfizer, Wim Noel Employee of: Janssen, Petros Sfikakis Consultant of: AbbVie, Actelion, Boehringer Ingelheim, Enorasis, Farmaserv-Lilly, Genesis, Gilead, MSD, Novartis, Pfizer, UCB, Grant/research support from: AbbVie, Amgen, Boehringer Ingelheim, Faran, Janssen, Pfizer, Roche, Elke Theander Employee of: Janssen, Josef S.

Abstract
Background:Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is characterised by musculoskeletal symptoms, and patients (pts) with PsA usually experience psoriasis concurrently. Real-world data reflecting impact of skin symptoms on PsA disease burden are limited.Objectives:Analyse effectiveness of ustekinumab (UST) and tumour necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi) therapy on extent of skin involvement, and the impact this has on PsA disease burden and drug persistence.Methods:PsABio (NCT02627768) is a prospective, observational study of 1st/2nd/3rd-line UST or TNFi treatment in PsA in 8 European countries. Extent of skin involvement was categorised as body surface area (BSA): clear/almost clear; <3% but not clear/almost clear; 3–10%; or >10%. Pt-reported disease impact was evaluated by PsAID-12, including assessment of two skin-related domains (D): D3 (skin problems, including itching) and D10 (embarrassment and/or shame because of appearance). Estimated persistence at 1 year was assessed across baseline (BL) BSA categories.Results:At BL, significantly more pts receiving UST than TNFi had BSA >10% (Figure 1). BL disease impact (PsAID-12) was worse in pts with BSA >10% than <3% in D3, D10 and total (non-overlapping 95% CIs suggest significance) (Table 1). BSA improved from BL to 1 year with both treatments. At 1 year, 64% of pts in both groups had clear/almost clear skin and only 3% had BSA >10% (Figure 1). At 1 year, both treatments significantly reduced disease impact (PsAID-12 total), and D3 and D10 scores, irrespective of BL BSA category, but most markedly in pts with higher BL BSA (Table 1). Worse BL psoriasis was generally associated with longer persistence for both treatments; however, at 1 year, pts with BSA >10% had significantly shorter persistence with TNFi (mean [95% CI]: 361 [336; 387] days) than with UST (410 [394; 426] days).Conclusion:In PsA, interleukin-12/23 inhibition (UST) and TNFi therapy in routine care rapidly and substantially reduced extent of skin involvement and related disease impact. Pts with highest BL skin involvement had significantly longer drug persistence with UST than with TNFi. Together, PsABio data suggest that successful treatment of skin involvement in PsA with biologics reduces disease burden and may improve persistence, especially in pts with worse BL psoriasis.Figure 1Table 1.PsAID-12 scores at BL and change from BL scores at 6 months and 1 year, by BL BSA categoryMean (95% CI)Domain 3(skin problems, including itching)Domain 10(embarrassment and/orshame because of appearance)Total PsAID-12USTTNFiUSTTNFiUSTTNFiPsAID-12 score at BL by BL BSA <3%4.2 (3.7; 4.8)3.1 (2.7; 3.6)3.9 (3.3; 4.4)3.1(2.6; 3.6)5.7(5.3; 6.0)5.0 (4.6; 5.3) 3–10%6.4 (5.9; 6.8)5.8 (5.3; 6.3)4.1 (3.5; 4.7)4.5 (3.9; 5.1)5.4 (5.1; 5.8)5.8 (5.4; 6.1) >10%7.9 (7.5; 8.3)6.7 (6.0; 7.5)6.1 (5.4; 6.8)5.8 (4.8; 6.8)6.2 (5.7; 6.6)6.1 (5.6; 6.7)Change from BL in PsAID-12 score at 6 months by BL BSA <3%-1.5 (-2.1; -0.9)-0.8 (-1.3; -0.3)-1.5 (-2.0; -0.9)-1.2 (-1.6; -0.7)-1.6 (-2.0; -1.2)-1.9 (-2.2; -1.5) 3–10%-3.2 (-3.8; -2.7)-2.4 (-3.0; -1.9)-1.9 (-2.5; -1.3)-2.0 (-2.5; -1.5)-2.0 (-2.4; -1.6)-2.4 (-2.8; -2.0) >10%-4.2 (-4.9; -3.6)-2.5 (-3.2; -1.9)-2.9 (-3.5; -2.2)-1.6 (-2.4; -0.8)-2.4 (-2.8; -2.0)-2.2 (-2.7; -1.7)Change from BL in PsAID-12 score at 1 year (LOCF) by BL BSA <3%-1.5 (-2.1; -0.9)-0.8 (-1.3; -0.3)-1.6 (-2.2; -1.1)-1.2 (-1.7; -0.7)-1.6 (-2.0; -1.2)-1.9 (-2.3; -1.5) 3–10%-3.5 (-4.0; -2.9)-3.2(-3.7; -2.7)-2.0 (-2.6; -1.4)-2.5 (-3.0; -2.0)-2.2 (-2.6; -1.7)-3.0 (-3.4; -2.6) >10%-4.9 (-5.5; -4.3)-3.1 (-4.0; -2.3)-3.5 (-4.2; -2.8)-2.7 (-3.7; -1.8)-2.9 (-3.4; -2.4)-2.9 (-3.5; -2.2)PsAID-12 total score ≤4 is considered a patient-acceptable symptom state.BL, baseline; BSA, body surface area; CI, confidence interval; LOCF, last observation carried forward; PsAID-12, 12-item Psoriatic Arthritis Impact of Disease questionnaire; TNFi, tumour necrosis factor inhibitor; UST, ustekinumabAcknowledgements:This study was funded by Janssen.Disclosure of Interests:Josef S.

Abstract
PURPOSE This pragmatic clinical study aimed to assess goal attainment among patients with schizophrenia treated with paliperidone palmitate 3-monthly (PP3M) and its relation to their level of disability, and whether patients achieved symptomatic remission at the study endpoint. PATIENTS AND METHODS Goal attainment was assessed as a secondary endpoint using Goal Attainment Scaling (GAS) within a 52-week, prospective, single-arm, non-randomized, open-label, international, multicenter study evaluating the impact of transitioning stable patients with schizophrenia from paliperidone palmitate 1-monthly (PP1M) to PP3M. Additional exploratory analyses were performed to investigate the relationship between disability and functioning as measured by the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS), Version 2.0, symptomatic remission, and goal attainment. RESULTS Overall, 305 patients were enrolled, of whom 281 (92.1%) provided GAS data at baseline. Of these, 160 achieved symptomatic remission at the last observation carried forward (LOCF) endpoint. The most common category of goals was "self" related, of which work-related was most frequent. Two-thirds of patients (67.7%) achieved at least one goal at the LOCF endpoint. Goal achievement was positively associated with lower baseline symptoms and symptomatic remission at LOCF endpoint, and with lower WHODAS scores at baseline and LOCF endpoint and greater WHODAS score improvements from baseline. Age, duration of disease, and duration of PP1M treatment before the switch did not impact goal setting and goal attainment. The proportion of patients with remunerated work status increased by 11.3% at LOCF endpoint. CONCLUSION The results of this secondary endpoint analysis indicate that continued treatment of patients with schizophrenia with PP3M following stabilization with PP1M may facilitate attainment of patients' personal goals and reduce disability, especially, but not exclusively, in patients with symptomatic remission achieved at LOCF.

Abstract
Background:Among treatment options for PsA, IL-12/23 inhibition with UST was the first new biologic mode of action after TNFi. Few real-world data comparing UST with TNFi are available.Objectives:Comparison of UST and TNFi treatment effectiveness within the prospectively followed PsABio cohort at 12-month (mo) follow-up.Methods:The PsABio study (NCT02627768) evaluates effectiveness, tolerability and persistence of 1st, 2nd or 3rd-line UST or TNFi in PsA. Proportions of patients (pts) reaching MDA/very low disease activity (VLDA) and clinical Disease Activity index for PSoriatic Arthritis (cDAPSA) LDA/remission are described. Comparison across UST and TNFi cohorts was done on last observation carried forward up to 12 (±3) mo, with non-response imputation for pts who had stopped/switched initial treatment. Logistic regression analysis was used, including propensity score (PS) analysis to adjust for imbalanced prognostic baseline (BL) covariates: country, age, sex, BMI, smoking (yes/no), comorbidities (cardiovascular/metabolic syndrome), PsA type (axial, polyarticular, oligoarticular), psoriasis body surface area (BSA), disease duration, cDAPSA, 12-item PsA Impact of Disease (PsAID-12), dactylitis, enthesitis, Fibromyalgia Rapid Screening Tool (FiRST) score, line of biologic (b)DMARD, synthetic DMARD use, and steroid or NSAID use.Results:Of 929 eligible pts, 893 had evaluable data at BL and at follow-up; 438 (95.6%) were treated with UST and 455 (96.6%) with TNFi (including stoppers/switchers). UST and TNFi groups had BL differences in mean age (51.0 vs 48.5 years, respectively), concurrent comorbidities (68.7% vs 60.9%), time since diagnosis (7.5 vs 6.2 years), line of treatment (1st-line 45.0% vs 55.2%; 3rd-line 20.5% vs 12.1%), NSAID use (54.8% vs 68.8%), concomitant MTX use (29.9% vs 42.0%) and psoriasis skin involvement (BSA >10% in 26.6% vs 14.8%).In 714 pts with available data, mean (standard deviation) BL cDAPSA was 30.6 (20.2; n=358) for UST and 29.3 (18.6; n=356) for TNFi. Observed data showed differences in proportion of pts achieving MDA/VLDA and cDAPSA LDA/remission in favour of TNFi, but after PS adjustment for BL differences (such as line of therapy, skin psoriasis, concomitant conventional DMARD, etc.), odds ratios for reaching targets at 12 mo did not significantly differ between UST and TNFi groups (Fig. 1).Comparison of 6- and 12-mo unadjusted data showed sustained MDA/VLDA responses with both UST (21.8%) and TNFi (29.5%), with comparable proportions of additional pts achieving these targets between 6 and 12 mo (17.0% and 20.3%, respectively). Sustained efficacy became lower with successive lines of treatment (data not shown).Conclusion:Various factors, including patient characteristics such as comorbidities, influence the physician’s selection of treatment modality for patients needing a bDMARD. Our real-world results demonstrate differences in observed clinical effectiveness between UST and TNFi. However, after PS adjustment for a number of BL differences, clinical results at 12 mo were comparable between UST and TNFi groups. Data at 12 mo also show sustained response with both UST and TNFi treatment, as well as a similar rate of pts achieving targets after 6 to 12 mo of treatment.Acknowledgments:This study was funded by Janssen.Disclosure of Interests:Josef S.

Abstract
Background:Female sex has been associated with more severe disease and poorer treatment outcomes in PsA. These observations are often based on small populations or national cohorts/registries.Objectives:To investigate the effects of sex on disease characteristics and disease impact in PsA, using data of 929 consecutive patients (pts) from PsABio.Methods:PsABio is a real-world, non-interventional European study in PsA pts treated with UST or TNFi based on their rheumatologist’s choice. Observed male and female baseline (BL) data were described and compared using 95% CI.Results:Women in PsABio (n=512 [55%]) were numerically older than men (mean [SD]: 50.5 [12.7] / 48.7 [12.3] years, respectively). Women were more obese (BMI >30), % (95% CI): F: 35 (30, 39), M: 24 (20, 29), men more overweight (BMI >25–30): F: 31 (27, 36), M:51 (46, 57). Age at diagnosis, delay from first symptom to diagnosis, and disease duration were similar for both sexes.Women entered PsABio more often on 3rd line treatment, whereas men started on 1st-line biologic treatment more often (F/M 1st line 47%/55%; 2nd line 34%/33%; 3rd line 20%/12%). Numerically, concomitant MTX was given more often to women vs men (32% vs 27%). At BL, 60% of women and 64% of men were on NSAIDs; 7.9% and 2.5% on antidepressant drugs. Women had significantly more comorbidities, with numerically more cardiovascular disease and anxiety/depression, and 3 times more IBD.Women had significantly higher 68 tender joint counts (TJC): 13.0 vs 10.4, while 66 swollen joint counts were not significantly different: 5.8 vs 5.5. Axial or combined axial-peripheral disease was similarly frequent, in 29% of women and 26% of men (Figs. 1, 2).Clinical Disease Activity index for PSoriatic Arthritis (cDAPSA) was higher in women (31.8 vs 27.3); pt-reported levels of pain, global disease activity (VAS scales) and higher TJC contributed to this. While enthesitis prevalence (based on Leeds Enthesitis Index) was comparable, men had significantly more frequent dactylitis, nail disease and worse skin psoriasis. At BL, 3.4% of women vs 7.1% of men, were in MDA.Regarding physical functioning (HAQ-DI), impact of disease (PSAID-12) and quality of life (EQ5D-3L health state), women with PsA starting a biologic (b)DMARD, expressed significantly greater negative impact and more limitations due to their disease (Fig. 2).Conclusion:In routine care, women with PsA starting a bDMARD presented with worse outcomes over a range of assessments compared with men (higher pt-reported pain and disease activity, TJC, and worse physical functioning and QoL), while men had worse dactylitis and psoriasis. Follow-up analysis will report whether the effects of biologic therapy are different in both sexes. The increased prevalence of associated features related to pain and impact on functioning and QoL may indicate the need for a more comprehensive treatment approach for women to avoid unnecessary and premature bDMARD stop or switch.Acknowledgments:This study was funded by Janssen.Disclosure of Interests:Michael T Nurmohamed Grant/research support from: Abbvie, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celltrion, GlaxoSmithKline, Jansen, Eli Lilly, Menarini, Merck Sharp & Dohme, Mundipharma, Pfizer, Roche, Sanofi, USB, Consultant of: Abbvie, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celltrion, GlaxoSmithKline, Jansen, Eli Lilly, Menarini, Merck Sharp & Dohme, Mundipharma, Pfizer, Roche, Sanofi, USB, Speakers bureau: Abbvie, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celltrion, GlaxoSmithKline, Jansen, Eli Lilly, Menarini, Merck Sharp & Dohme, Mundipharma, Pfizer, Roche, Sanofi, USB, Irene van der Horst-Bruinsma Grant/research support from: AbbVie, Novartis, Eli Lilly, Bristol-Myers Squibb, MSD, Pfizer, UCB Pharma, Consultant of: AbbVie, Novartis, Eli Lilly, Bristol-Myers Squibb, MSD, Pfizer, UCB Pharma, Arno WR van Kuijk Grant/research support from: Janssen, Stefan Siebert Grant/research support from: BMS, Boehringer Ingelheim, Celgene, GlaxoSmithKline, Janssen, Novartis, Pfizer, UCB, Consultant of: AbbVie, Boehringer Ingelheim, Janssen, Novartis, Pfizer, UCB, Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Celgene, Janssen, Novartis, Paul Bergmans Shareholder of: Johnson & Johnson, Employee of: Janssen, Kurt de Vlam Consultant of: Celgene Corporation, Eli Lilly, Novartis, Pfizer, UCB – consultant, Speakers bureau: Celgene Corporation, Eli Lilly, Novartis, Pfizer, UCB – speakers bureau and honoraria, Elisa Gremese Consultant of: AbbVie, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celgene, Eli Lilly, Janssen, Merck Sharp & Dohme, Novartis, Sanofi, UCB, Roche, Pfizer, Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celgene, Eli Lilly, Janssen, Merck Sharp & Dohme, Novartis, Sanofi, UCB, Roche, Pfizer, Beatriz Joven-Ibáñez Speakers bureau: Abbvie, Celgene, Janssen, Merck Sharp & Dohme, Novartis, Pfizer, Tatiana Korotaeva Grant/research support from: Pfizer, Consultant of: Abbvie, BIOCAD, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celgene, Eli Lilly, Janssen, Merck Sharp & Dohme, Novartis, Novartis-Sandoz, Pfizer, UCB, Speakers bureau: Abbvie, BIOCAD, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celgene, Eli Lilly, Janssen, Merck Sharp & Dohme, Novartis, Novartis-Sandoz, Pfizer, UCB, Wim Noel Employee of: Janssen Pharmaceuticals NV, Petros Sfikakis Grant/research support from: Grant/research support from Abvie, Novartis, MSD, Actelion, Amgen, Pfizer, Janssen Pharmaceutical, UCB, Elke Theander Employee of: Janssen-Cilag Sweden AB, Josef S.

Abstract
Background:Several biologic DMARDs (bDMARDs) exist for PsA, TNFi and UST being the earliest on European markets. When bDMARDs are insufficiently effective, later-line bDMARDs typically have shorter persistence. Treatment persistence reflects a mix of effectiveness and adverse events (AEs), and persistence data are limited in PsA.Objectives:Comparative analysis of 1-year persistence of UST and TNFi within the prospective PsABio cohort.Methods:PsABio is an observational, multinational study of PsA patients (pts) treated with 1st to 3rd line UST or TNFi at their rheumatologist’s discretion.1Treatment persistence (up to 15 months of follow-up) was defined as time between start of first bDMARD treatment in PsABio, and either stop or switch to another bDMARD, or withdrawal.Persistence of UST and TNFi is shown by Kaplan-Meier curves and compared using Cox regression analysis, with propensity score (PS) to adjust for baseline imbalanced demographic and disease-related covariates (age, sex, bDMARD line, BMI, Clinical Disease Activity index for PSoriatic Arthritis [cDAPSA], 12-item PsA Impact of Disease [PsAID-12], Fibromyalgia Rapid Screening Tool [FiRST] score, co-treatments with MTX, NSAIDs, glucocorticoids, cardiovascular/metabolic comorbidities, dactylitis, enthesitis and body surface area [BSA]). Factors including concomitant MTX use and skin involvement: <3%, 3–10% and >10%, were added to the Cox model to investigate their impact on the PS-adjusted treatment effect.Results:Of 438 and 455 pts who started UST and TNF, respectively, 121 (28%) and 134 (29%) stopped or switched treatment before Month 15, with differences (as expected) according to treatment line (Fig. 1a, b). Reasons for stop/switch were related to safety/AEs in 12% (UST) and 28% (TNFi), and effectiveness (joints, nails or skin) in 77% (UST) and 69% (TNFi) of pts.The observed mean time on drug was 397 days for UST and 385 days for TNFi pts (1st line 410/397 days, 2nd 390/382 days, 3rd 381/338 days). Fig. 1b shows similar persistence for all drugs and treatment lines, except for lower persistence in TNFi 3rd line vs 1st/2nd. In PS-adjusted Cox analysis, no statistically significant difference between UST and TNFi persistence was seen; hazard ratio (HR; 95% CI) for stop/switch bDMARD (UST vs TNFi) was 0.82 (0.60, 1.13). In the model, bDMARD monotherapy (without MTX) and extensive skin involvement (BSA >10%), showed significantly better persistence for UST (HR 0.61 [0.42, 0.90] and 0.41 [0.19, 0.89] respectively; unadjusted Kaplan-Meier graphs shown in Fig. 1c, d). MTX co-therapy and low BSA did not affect the PS-adjusted treatment effect. Other factors added to the PS-adjusted Cox model did not show significant effects.Conclusion:In this real-world PsA cohort undergoing bDMARD treatment, persistence was generally comparable for UST and TNFi, but some clinical situations led to better drug persistence with UST compared to TNFi – particularly monotherapy, more extensive skin involvement, and in 3rd-line treatment. Our data emphasise the importance of skin involvement for pts with PsA.References:[1]Gossec L, et al.Ann Rheum Dis. 2018;77(suppl 2):Abstract AB0928Acknowledgments:This study was funded by Janssen.Disclosure of Interests:Laure Gossec Grant/research support from: Lilly, Mylan, Pfizer, Sandoz, Consultant of: AbbVie, Amgen, Biogen, Celgene, Janssen, Lilly, Novartis, Pfizer, Sandoz, Sanofi-Aventis, UCB, Stefan Siebert Grant/research support from: BMS, Boehringer Ingelheim, Celgene, GlaxoSmithKline, Janssen, Novartis, Pfizer, UCB, Consultant of: AbbVie, Boehringer Ingelheim, Janssen, Novartis, Pfizer, UCB, Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Celgene, Janssen, Novartis, Paul Bergmans Shareholder of: Johnson & Johnson, Employee of: Janssen, Kurt de Vlam Consultant of: Celgene Corporation, Eli Lilly, Novartis, Pfizer, UCB – consultant, Speakers bureau: Celgene Corporation, Eli Lilly, Novartis, Pfizer, UCB – speakers bureau and honoraria, Elisa Gremese Consultant of: AbbVie, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celgene, Eli Lilly, Janssen, Merck Sharp & Dohme, Novartis, Sanofi, UCB, Roche, Pfizer, Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celgene, Eli Lilly, Janssen, Merck Sharp & Dohme, Novartis, Sanofi, UCB, Roche, Pfizer, Beatriz Joven-Ibáñez Speakers bureau: Abbvie, Celgene, Janssen, Merck Sharp & Dohme, Novartis, Pfizer, Tatiana Korotaeva Grant/research support from: Pfizer, Consultant of: Abbvie, BIOCAD, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celgene, Eli Lilly, Janssen, Merck Sharp & Dohme, Novartis, Novartis-Sandoz, Pfizer, UCB, Speakers bureau: Abbvie, BIOCAD, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celgene, Eli Lilly, Janssen, Merck Sharp & Dohme, Novartis, Novartis-Sandoz, Pfizer, UCB, Wim Noel Employee of: Janssen Pharmaceuticals NV, Michael T Nurmohamed Grant/research support from: Abbvie, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celltrion, GlaxoSmithKline, Jansen, Eli Lilly, Menarini, Merck Sharp & Dohme, Mundipharma, Pfizer, Roche, Sanofi, USB, Consultant of: Abbvie, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celltrion, GlaxoSmithKline, Jansen, Eli Lilly, Menarini, Merck Sharp & Dohme, Mundipharma, Pfizer, Roche, Sanofi, USB, Speakers bureau: Abbvie, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celltrion, GlaxoSmithKline, Jansen, Eli Lilly, Menarini, Merck Sharp & Dohme, Mundipharma, Pfizer, Roche, Sanofi, USB, Petros Sfikakis Grant/research support from: Grant/research support from Abvie, Novartis, MSD, Actelion, Amgen, Pfizer, Janssen Pharmaceutical, UCB, Elke Theander Employee of: Janssen-Cilag Sweden AB, Josef S.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The additional benefit of methotrexate (MTX) as a concomitant treatment in PsA has not been fully elucidated for TNF inhibitors (TNFi) and no real-world data on this currently exist for ustekinumab (UST). We investigated the additive effect of MTX on the ability to reach composite treatment targets beyond monotherapy with UST or TNFi, and the ability to improve patient-reported outcomes in a real-world clinical setting in 8 European countries.
Methods
The PsABio study (NCT02627768) evaluates persistence, effectiveness and tolerability of 1st, 2nd or 3rd-line UST or TNFi in patients with PsA. Proportions of patients reaching minimal disease activity (MDA)/very low disease activity (VLDA) and clinical Disease Activity in Psoriatic Arthritis (cDAPSA) low disease activity (LDA) or remission, as well as the patient acceptable symptom state (PASS; score ≤4) of the 12-item Psoriatic Arthritis Impact of Disease questionnaire (PsAID-12) were evaluated. Here we present 6-month follow-up data using intention to treat (ITT) analysis; patients who stopped/switched initial treatment were imputed as non-responders. The effect of MTX co-therapy was investigated within UST and TNFi cohorts, as well as between the cohorts, using multivariate logistic regression including interaction terms, and propensity score (PS) analysis to adjust for imbalanced, potentially prognostic, baseline covariates.
Results
Of 930 patients, data was available for 868 ITT patients, including patients who switched/stopped before 6 months (UST: n = 28/426 [6.6%], TNFi: n = 44/442 [10.0%]). At baseline there were no relevant differences in demographics and disease activity, however there were significant differences in skin involvement as well as csDMARD and NSAID exposure. Co-therapy with MTX did not increase the likelihood of achieving any of the outcomes in either the UST or TNFi cohorts (Table 1). After PS adjustment, co-treatment with MTX did not influence treatment effects differently when added to UST compared with TNFi. concomitant use of csDMARDs other than MTX yielded very similar results.
Conclusion
In a real-world setting, concomitant treatment with MTX in addition to UST or TNFi was not associated with enhanced effects across a broad variety of disease outcomes, including disease activity, disease impact, and skin involvement within or between treatment cohorts, after PS adjustment for baseline confounders.

Abstract
IntroductionLittle is known about patient characteristics and rehospitalization in newly diagnosed patients with schizophrenia treated with long-acting antipsychotics.ObjectivesTo retrospectively explore hospitalizations, drug utilization and clinical outcomes from medical records of young, newly diagnosed schizophrenia patients during the first 12 months of treatment with once-monthly paliperidone palmitate (PP).MethodsInternational, multicenter, retrospective, observational study. Outcomes presented are patient characteristics, reason for PP initiation and hospitalization data.ResultsEighty-four patients were analyzed: mean age (years) at first psychotic episode was 23.8 (SD2.6), 23.9 (SD2.6) at first antipsychotic treatment and 24.1 (SD2.7, range 19-29) at PP initiation. Time between first antipsychotic treatment and PP initiation was 4.8 (SD: 3.4, range: 0-12) months. At PP initiation, 42.9% of patients were in hospital, primarily for the management of the first episode/relapse (97.2%). Reason for PP initiation was: LAT favored over oral treatment for relapse prevention (56%), partial/non adherence with previous oral medication (20.0%), convenience (15.5%) or limited access to health care systems (2.4%). Mean time (days) between admission and initiation of PP, and between initiation of PP and discharge from hospital was 28.8 (SD23.0) and 23.2 (SD24.5), respectively. 96.4% of patients were not hospitalized during the 12-month PP treatment period. 3/84 patients (3.6%) had a single hospitalization of 15.7 (SD: 8.1) days for management of episode/relapse.ConclusionsIn this young, newly diagnosed schizophrenia population, the number of hospitalizations following PP initiation was low. Main reason to initiate PP was clinicians favoring LAT over oral antipsychotic treatment for relapse prevention or due to partial/non adherence with previous oral treatment.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Consultations between general practitioners (GPs) and hospital specialists are traditionally conducted by phone. A conversation by phone where a GP seeks advice regarding a patient, who is unknown to the specialist, can have limitations. An e-consultation service for internal medicine allows GPs to consult an internal medicine specialist for clinical queries. In this study we evaluated GP use of internal medicine e-consultations. DESIGN Observational study. METHOD Eligible patients were all those for whom the GP used an internal medicine e-consultation, provided by Zuyderland Medical Centre, location Sittard-Geleen, the Netherlands, in the period 2017-2018. Data on patient demographics, content of the GP clinical query, and any preceding diagnostics were collated. Furthermore, the internal medicine specialist response was categorised, including the presence of any patient referral advice. RESULTS 136 (88.6%) of all 154 GPs in the region used an e-consultation at least once, and the clinical queries covered all areas of internal medicine. A total of 1047 eligible patients were discussed by GPs in an e-consultation; 19.6% of them attended the internal medicine out-patient clinic within three months of the index episode. The use of e-consultations by GPs led to a 70% reduction in referrals when compared to the situation where e-consultations were not available. CONCLUSION GPs used internal medicine e-consultations for a wide range of questions covering all areas of internal medicine. In more than 80% of cases, the GP continued to manage the patient, resulting in a reduction of the actual number of patient referrals to the internal medicine out-patient clinic.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Paliperidone palmitate 3-monthly (PP3M) formulation is a long-acting, injectable antipsychotic treatment approved in many countries worldwide for the maintenance treatment of adult patients with schizophrenia. This single-arm, open-label, phase IIIb study evaluated the efficacy and safety of converting patients with schizophrenia stabilized with paliperidone palmitate 1-month (PP1M) to PP3M in a naturalistic clinical setting. METHODS After screening (days -7 to 1), patients were converted from PP1M (50-150 mg eq.) to PP3M (175-525 mg eq.), and entered a 52-week, flexible-dose PP3M treatment period. The primary efficacy endpoint was symptomatic remission (SR) (Andreasen criteria) at last observation carried forward (LOCF) endpoint. RESULTS Patients (n = 305) received PP3M, of whom 291 (95.4%) completed the study. Doses of PP3M remained stable during the 12-month treatment period, and changes in dose were uncommon. Overall, 56.8% of patients [95% confidence interval (CI): 51.0, 62.4] achieved SR, and 31.8% achieved both symptomatic and functional remission (Personal and Social Performance scale total score > 70) at LOCF endpoint. Secondary endpoint results were generally consistent with primary endpoint results. There were improvements in Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale total, subscale and Marder factor scores, and also Clinical Global Impression-Severity and -Change scores from baseline to LOCF endpoint. Carer burden was reduced, and the proportion of patients requiring hospitalization for psychiatric reasons decreased from 13.5% in the 12 months prior to baseline to 4.6% during the treatment period. No new safety signals were identified. CONCLUSION Results from this naturalistic study were similar to those observed in previous randomized clinical trials of PP3M and underline the importance of continuous maintenance treatment in patients with schizophrenia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Paliperidone palmitate 3-monthly (PP3M) is a second-generation, long-acting injectable antipsychotic formulation indicated for the maintenance treatment of adults with schizophrenia first stabilized with paliperidone palmitate 1-monthly (PP1M). This exploratory post hoc subgroup analysis of the 52-week, phase 3b REMISSIO study analysed outcomes according to patient age and disease duration in a naturalistic clinical setting. METHODS Outcomes of patients with schizophrenia were analysed according to age [<35 years (n = 123) versus ⩾35 years (n = 182)] and disease duration [⩽3 years (n = 72) versus >3 years (n = 233)]. The primary efficacy outcome was the proportion of patients achieving symptomatic remission according to the Andreasen criteria. Adverse events were monitored throughout the study. RESULTS At endpoint (last observation carried forward), 60.7% (95% CI: 51.4%, 69.4%) of younger patients and 54.1% of older patients (95% CI: 46.6%, 61.6%) achieved symptomatic remission. The proportions for patients with disease duration ⩽3 years and >3 years were similar: 57.8% (45.4%, 69.4%) versus 56.5% (49.8%, 62.9%). Functional remission was reached by 45.4% (36.2%, 54.8%) of patients aged <35 years and 36% (28.9%, 43.6%) of patients aged ⩾35 years with a similar pattern when analysed by disease duration. PP3M had a favourable safety profile and was generally well tolerated in both age groups. CONCLUSION Patients with schizophrenia, previously stabilized on PP1M, may benefit from PP3M treatment with some additional potential improvements if started early in the disease course.

Abstract
AIMS There is a large population of people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who are Muslim and fast during Ramadan. Changes in the pattern and amount of meal and fluid intake during Ramadan, in addition to the long fasting hours, may increase the risk of hypoglycaemia, hyperglycaemia, and dehydration. The Canagliflozin in Ramadan Tolerance Observational Study (CRATOS) evaluated the tolerability of canagliflozin, a sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor, compared with sulphonylureas among patients with T2DM who fast during Ramadan. METHODS This non-randomised, parallel-cohort, prospective, comparative, observational study was conducted in the Middle East during Ramadan and enrolled patients who were taking canagliflozin (n=162) or any sulphonylurea (n=159) added to metformin±dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor. The proportion of patients who experienced hypoglycaemia events was assessed as the primary end-point. Between-cohort comparisons were adjusted using propensity score analysis. RESULTS During Ramadan, fewer patients experienced symptomatic hypoglycaemia with canagliflozin vs sulphonylurea (adjusted odds ratio: 0.273 [95% CI: 0.104, 0.719]). Of hypoglycaemia events for which blood glucose was measured, two of six with canagliflozin and 27 of 37 with sulphonylurea were confirmed by blood glucose <3.9 mmol/L. More patients treated with canagliflozin experienced volume depletion events compared with sulphonylurea (adjusted odds ratio: 3.5 [95% CI: 1.3, 9.2]). Missed fasting days were few and medication adherence was high in both groups. No patients treated with canagliflozin and 9.4% treated with sulphonylurea adjusted their medication dose near the beginning of Ramadan. Both treatments were generally well tolerated, with low rates of adverse events and no serious adverse events in either group. CONCLUSIONS Overall, these findings support the use of canagliflozin for the treatment of adults with T2DM who fast during Ramadan. CLINICALTRIALS. GOV IDENTIFIER NCT02737657.

Abstract
Background/Aims There is a need for a simple and practical tool adapted for the diagnosis of chronic constipation (CC) in the Asian population. This study compared the Asian Neurogastroenterology and Motility Association (ANMA) CC tool and Rome III criteria for the diagnosis of CC in Asian subjects. Methods This multicenter, cross-sectional study included subjects presenting at outpatient gastrointestinal clinics across Asia. Subjects with CC alert symptoms completed a combination Diagnosis Questionnaire to obtain a diagnosis based on 4 different diagnostic methods: self-defined, investigator’s judgment, ANMA CC tool, and Rome III criteria. The primary endpoint was the level of agreement/disagreement between the ANMA CC diagnostic tool and Rome III criteria for the diagnosis of CC. Results The primary analysis comprised of 449 subjects, 414 of whom had a positive diagnosis according to the ANMA CC tool. Rome III positive/ANMA positive and Rome III negative/ANMA negative diagnoses were reported in 76.8% and 7.8% of subjects, respectively, resulting in an overall percentage agreement of 84.6% between the 2 diagnostic methods. The overall percentage disagreement between these 2 diagnostic methods was 15.4%. A higher level of agreement was seen between the ANMA CC tool and self-defined (374 subjects [90.3%]) or investigator’s judgment criteria (388 subjects [93.7%]) compared with the Rome III criteria. Conclusion This study demonstrates that the ANMA CC tool can be a useful for Asian patients with CC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The negative symptoms of schizophrenia are generally harder to recognize, more difficult to treat than positive symptoms, and have a significant impact on patient functioning and overall outcomes. Treatment with aripiprazole may be associated with benefits on negative symptoms and functioning given its partial agonism to the dopamine D2 receptor. The aim of this subanalysis was to explore the impact of flexibly dosed, long-acting paliperidone palmitate once monthly (PP1M) on negative and depressive symptoms, disorganized thoughts, anxiety, extrapyramidal symptoms, and patient functioning in nonacute adult patients with schizophrenia previously unsuccessfully treated with oral aripiprazole monotherapy. METHODS Post-hoc subanalysis of 46 nonacute but symptomatic patients enrolled in a prospective, interventional, single-arm, multicenter, open-label 6-month study. RESULTS At endpoint, improvements of ⩾ 20% and ⩾ 50% in the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) total score were observed in 52.2% and 21.7% of patients, respectively. Significant and clinically relevant improvements were observed at endpoint in mean (standard deviation [SD]) PANSS negative subscale score (-3.0 (5.0); p < 0.0001) and in the PANSS Marder factor scores for negative symptoms (-2.9 (5.4); p = 0.0006), disorganized thoughts (-2.8 (4.3); p < 0.0001) and anxiety/depression (-1.8 (3.9); p = 0.0031). Patient functioning assessed by mean (SD) Personal and Social Performance scale score (3.9 (13.2); p = 0.0409), Mini International Classification of Functioning rating for Activity and Participation Disorders in Psychological Illnesses total scores (-2.9 (7.1); p = 0.0079), and Extrapyramidal Symptom Rating Scale scores (-0.6 (3.4); p = 0.0456) improved significantly at endpoint. PP1M was well tolerated with no new safety signals. CONCLUSIONS Six-month treatment with flexibly dosed PP1M was associated with significant and clinically relevant improvements in negative and depressive symptoms, disorganized thoughts, functioning, and extrapyramidal symptoms in nonacute but symptomatic patients with schizophrenia previously unsuccessfully treated with oral aripiprazole.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Long-acting antipsychotic therapy may be best suited for patients in the early stage of schizophrenia, when the most can be done before disease progression associated with poor adherence occurs. We explored the patterns of use of once-monthly paliperidone palmitate (PP1M), concomitant medication use, hospitalization, and clinical outcomes of adult, newly diagnosed patients with schizophrenia receiving continuous treatment with PP1M for at least 12 months. METHODS This was an international, multicenter, exploratory, retrospective chart review of medical records of adult patients who were newly diagnosed (not more than 1 year before initiation of PP1M treatment) with schizophrenia and who had received continuous treatment with PP1M for ≥12 months in naturalistic clinical settings. RESULTS A total of 84 (93.3%) patients were included in the analysis. All but one patient (98.8%, n=83) had received oral antipsychotic medication at least during the last month before the first PP1M administration. Three patients (3.6%) were newly hospitalized during the 12-month documentation period. The reason for hospitalization for all three was management of episode/relapse. A total of 79.2% of patients had a ≥20% improvement and 47.2% had a ≥50% improvement in Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale total score from baseline to endpoint. Half of patients (53.3%) showed a significant improvement, as reflected by an increase in Personal and Social Performance (PSP) total score of at least 7 points from baseline to endpoint (mean [SD] 11.9 [15.0] points; P<0.001). One quarter of patients (24.4%, n=11) moved from a PSP score of 31-70 (ie, moderate to marked functional impairment) at baseline to a PSP score of mild to no functional impairment (PSP score ≥71) at endpoint. Most adverse drug reactions were mild or moderate in severity. CONCLUSION Continuous treatment with PP1M over 12 months was associated with statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvements in psychotic symptoms, disease severity, and functional outcomes in patients with schizophrenia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND TRANSIT (NCT01059773) compared immediate and gradual transition from methotrexate to ustekinumab in psoriasis patients via multiple measures, including patient-reported outcomes. OBJECTIVE To evaluate patient perception of treatment benefits in TRANSIT. METHODS A total of 489 psoriasis patients received ustekinumab, with immediate cessation of methotrexate (Arm 1) or 4 weeks' overlap with decreasing methotrexate dose (Arm 2). Ustekinumab was administered at weeks 0, 4, 16, 28 and 40. Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI), EuroQol 5-item (EQ-5D), visual analogue scale (VAS) valuation technique and patient benefit index (PBI) were employed. Mean global PBI and sub-scores were calculated from the sum of the benefit items weighted by their respective relevance at baseline. Patient-relevant benefit was defined as PBI ≥1 (scale: 0 [no benefit] to 4 [maximum benefit]). Correlations of global PBI with Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) and DLQI were examined. RESULTS Relationships between PBI and clinical data were evaluable in 340 patients. The most important treatment goals at baseline included: 'be healed of all skin defects', 'have confidence in therapy', 'get better skin quickly' and 'regain control of the disease'. Benefit in PBI global score was achieved at week 4 by 93% of patients in Arm 1 and 91% in Arm 2. Global PBI scores increased in both Arms between weeks 4 and 52. Global PBI correlated weakly with PASI change from baseline (correlation coefficient range: -0.22 to -0.40), and moderately with DLQI (-0.29 to -0.54). Overall DLQI score was lower than baseline at all times; and the percentage of patients with an overall score of 0 or 1 increased with time. Correspondingly, EQ VAS scores increased with time. DLQI and EQ VAS results were similar between arms. CONCLUSIONS Regardless of the strategy for transitioning from methotrexate, ustekinumab was associated with rapid and sustained improvement in patient-reported outcomes. PBI appears a suitable tool for assessing patient-relevant treatment benefits in psoriasis patients.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the treatment response, tolerability and safety of once-monthly paliperidone palmitate (PP1M) in non-acute patients switched from oral antipsychotics, stratified by time since diagnosis as recently diagnosed (≤3 years) or chronic patients (>3 years). Research design and methods: Post hoc analysis of a prospective, interventional, single-arm, multicentre, open-label, 6-month study performed in 233 recently diagnosed and 360 chronic patients. Main outcome measures: The proportion achieving treatment response (defined as ≥20% improvement in Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale [PANSS] total score from baseline to endpoint) and maintained efficacy (defined as non-inferiority in the change in PANSS total score at endpoint [Schuirmann’s test]). Results: 71.4% of recently diagnosed and 59.2% of chronic patients showed a ≥20% decrease in PANSS total score (p = 0.0028 between groups). Changes in PANSS Marder factors, PANSS subscales, and the proportion of patients with a Personal and Social Performance scale (PSP) total score of 71–100 were significantly greater in recently diagnosed compared with chronic patients. PP1M was well tolerated, presenting no unexpected safety findings. Conclusion: These data show that recently diagnosed patients treated with PP1M had a significantly higher treatment response and improved functioning, as assessed by the PSP total score, than chronic patients.

Abstract
PALMFlexS, a prospective multicentre, open-label, 6-month, phase IIIb interventional study, explored tolerability, safety and treatment response in adults (n = 231) with non-acute but symptomatic schizophrenia switching to flexibly dosed paliperidone palmitate (PP) after unsuccessful treatment with risperidone long-acting injectable therapy (RLAT) or conventional depot antipsychotics (APs). Treatment response was measured by change in Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) total score from baseline (BL) to last-observation-carried-forward (LOCF) endpoint (EP). Safety and tolerability assessments included Extrapyramidal Symptom Rating Scale (ESRS) total score and treatment-emergent adverse events. Significant reductions in mean PANSS total score were observed for all groups (-7.5 to -10.6; p ⩽ 0.01 [BL to LOCF EP]). After switching to PP, more than 50% of all patients achieved ⩾20% and one-third of RLAT-treated patients even achieved ⩾50% improvement in PANSS total score. Across groups, there were significant improvements (p < 0.05) in symptom severity as measured by Clinical Global Impression-Severity (CGI-S; trend for improvement with RLAT; p = 0.0568), subjective well-being, medication satisfaction, and patient functioning with PP. PP was generally well tolerated. Clinically relevant benefits were observed in non-acute patients with schizophrenia switched from RLAT or conventional depot APs to PP.

Abstract
In this prospective multicentre, open-label, 6-month study (Paliperidone Palmitate Flexible Dosing in Schizophrenia [PALMFlexS]), tolerability, safety and treatment response with paliperidone palmitate (PP) were explored in patients with acute symptoms of schizophrenia following switching from previously unsuccessful treatment with oral antipsychotics. This pragmatic study was conducted in a large, more representative sample of the general schizophrenia population compared to randomized controlled pivotal trials, to specifically mimic real-world clinical situations. After initiation on Day 1 and Day 8, patients received PP once monthly at flexible doses (50-150mgeq.) intramuscularly. The primary efficacy outcome was defined as the percentage of patients achieving ≥30% improvement in PANSS total score from baseline (BL) to last-observation-carried-forward (LOCF) endpoint (EP). Safety and tolerability assessments included Extrapyramidal Symptom Rating Scale (ESRS) total score and treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs). Overall, 212 patients received PP at least once after switching from oral antipsychotics, primarily due to lack of efficacy (45.8%). Significant improvements from BL in mean (SD) PANSS total score were observed from Day 8 onwards (BL to LOCF EP: -31.0 [29.0]; p<0.0001). At endpoint, two-thirds (66.7%) and 43.5% of patients achieved a ≥30% and ≥50% improvement in mean PANSS total score, respectively. PP was associated with significant improvements across secondary measures of symptom severity, subjective well-being, medication satisfaction, illness-related disorders of activity and participation, and patient functioning (p<0.0001; BL to LOCF EP). PP was generally well tolerated, with significant reductions in ESRS total score (p<0.0001) and mainly mild-to-moderate TEAEs. TEAEs reported in ≥5% of patients were injection-site pain (13.7%), insomnia (10.8%), psychotic disorder (10.4%), headache and anxiety (both 6.1%). The PALMFlexS study findings provide valuable pragmatic clinical data on PP treatment in patients with acute schizophrenia previously unsuccessfully treated with oral antipsychotics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are limited long-term, 'real-world' data on ustekinumab, or the effect of dose adjustment in suboptimal responders. OBJECTIVES We describe 52-week data from TRANSIT, which initiated ustekinumab by licensed regimen and investigated exploratory dose adjustment. METHODS Patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis and inadequate methotrexate response received ustekinumab, with immediate or gradual methotrexate withdrawal. Outcomes were similar between treatment arms at week 12 (primary endpoint), so week 52 data were pooled. Patients weighing ≤ 100 kg or > 100 kg were administered ustekinumab 45 or 90 mg, respectively. Patients weighing ≤ 100 kg without 75% improvement in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI 75) response at weeks 28 or 40 received a dose adjustment to 90 mg. The primary analysis used observed data. RESULTS Overall, 391 and 98 patients received ustekinumab 45 and 90 mg, respectively. Forty-four patients (9%) discontinued before week 52 (0·4% due to adverse events). At week 52 (in the overall population), 369 patients (83%) achieved a PASI score ≤ 5, and 341 patients (77%) achieved PASI 75; the median PASI score decreased from 15 at baseline to 1·8. At weeks 28 and 40, 84 and 31 patients, respectively, did not achieve PASI 75 and received a dose adjustment; by week 52, 35/82 (43%) and 15/31 (48%) of these patients, respectively, achieved PASI 75 (two discontinued between weeks 28 and 40). CONCLUSIONS Ustekinumab showed sustained 1-year efficacy and was well tolerated when initially administered according to label. Adjusting the ustekinumab dose to 90 mg may result in clinically meaningful improvement in response in patients weighing ≤ 100 kg with suboptimal initial response.

Abstract
Background As illustrated by the Montreal classification, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is much more than heartburn and patients constitute a heterogeneous group. Understanding if links exist between patients’ characteristics and GERD symptoms, and classify subjects based on symptom-profile could help to better understand, diagnose, and treat GERD. The aim of this study was to identify distinct classes of GERD patients according to symptom profiles, using a specific statistical tool: Latent class analysis. Methods An observational single-visit study was conducted in 5 European countries in 7700 adults with typical symptoms. A latent class analysis was performed to identify “latent classes” and was applied to 12 indicator symptoms. Results On 7434 subjects with non-missing indicators, latent class analysis yielded 5 latent classes. Class 1 grouped the highest severity of typical GERD symptoms during day and night, more digestive and non-digestive GERD symptoms, and bad sleep quality. Class 3 represented less frequent and less severe digestive and non-digestive GERD symptoms, and better sleep quality than in class 1. In class 2, only typical GERD symptoms at night occurred. Classes 4 and 5 represented daytime and nighttime regurgitation. In class 4, heartburn was also identified and more atypical digestive symptoms. Multinomial logistic regression showed that country, age, sex, smoking, alcohol use, low-fat diet, waist circumference, recent weight gain (>5 kg), elevated triglycerides, metabolic syndrome, and medical GERD treatment had a significant effect on latent classes. Conclusion Latent class analysis classified GERD patients based on symptom profiles which related to patients’ characteristics. Although further studies considering these proposed classes have to be conducted to determine the reproducibility of this classification, this new tool might contribute in better management and follow-up of patients with GERD.
