Abstract

In clinical trials, the percentage of patients discontinuing treatment with ocrelizumab due to adverse events was low. However, real-world populations are often more diverse than randomized controlled trials (RCTs), therefore it is important to assess discontinuation rates in real-world studies. This systematic literature review (SLR) was conducted to identify real-world discontinuation and persistence data for ocrelizumab in studies of patients with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) and primary progressive multiple sclerosis (PPMS). Searches were conducted in MEDLINE and Embase to identify relevant real-world studies that met pre-determined Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcomes, and Study (PICOS) criteria. Only articles published in English were included, but the study country was not restricted. A total of 30 studies were included, with the majority reporting real-world persistence data that appear to be similar to or better than in the pivotal clinical trials, with only 1 study reporting higher discontinuation rates due to adverse events compared with the clinical trials. Other studies identified reported that the risk of discontinuation was higher for other disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) compared with ocrelizumab, and adherence was also higher for ocrelizumab versus other DMTs. These findings have clinical relevance, as other studies have reported improved clinical outcomes and lower care costs for patients that are persistent or adherent to other DMTs.

多发性硬化症患者使用奥克立珠单抗的真实世界持久性：系统综述。

在临床试验中，因不良反应而中断奥柯利珠单抗治疗的患者比例较低。然而，与随机对照试验（RCT）相比，真实世界的人群往往更加多样化，因此评估真实世界研究中的停药率非常重要。本系统性文献综述（SLR）旨在确定在针对复发性缓解型多发性硬化症（RRMS）和原发性进展型多发性硬化症（PPMS）患者的研究中，奥克立珠单抗在真实世界中的停药率和持续率数据。我们在 MEDLINE 和 Embase 中进行了检索，以确定符合预先确定的人群、干预、比较、结果和研究 (PICOS) 标准的相关真实世界研究。仅纳入以英语发表的文章，但不限制研究国家。共纳入了 30 项研究，其中大多数研究报告了真实世界的持续性数据，这些数据似乎与关键临床试验的数据相似或更好，只有一项研究报告了因不良事件导致的停药率高于临床试验。所发现的其他研究报告称，与奥克雷珠单抗相比，其他疾病改变疗法（DMT）的停药风险更高，而与其他DMT相比，奥克雷珠单抗的依从性也更高。这些发现具有临床意义，因为其他研究报告称，坚持或依从其他 DMTs 的患者临床疗效更好，护理成本更低。

期刊介绍： Aims and Scope Neurology and Therapy aims to provide reliable and inclusive, rapid publication for all therapy related research for neurological indications, supporting the timely dissemination of research with a global reach, to help advance scientific discovery and support clinical practice. Neurology and Therapy is an international, open access, peer reviewed, rapid publication journal dedicated to the publication of high-quality clinical (all phases), observational, real-world and health outcomes research around the discovery, development, and use of neurological and psychiatric therapies, (also covering surgery and devices). Studies relating to diagnosis, pharmacoeconomics, public health, quality of life, and patient care, management, and education are also welcomed. The journal is of interest to a broad audience of healthcare professionals and publishes original research, reviews, case reports, trial designs, communications and letters. The journal is read by a global audience and receives submissions from all over the world. Neurology and Therapy will consider all scientifically sound research be it positive, confirmatory or negative data. Submissions are welcomed whether they relate to an international and/or a country-specific audience, something that is crucially important when researchers are trying to target more specific patient populations. This inclusive approach allows the journal to assist in the dissemination of all scientifically and ethically sound research. Rapid Publication The journal’s rapid publication timelines aim for a peer review decision within 2 weeks of submission. If an article is accepted, it will be published online 3-4 weeks from acceptance. These rapid timelines are achieved through the combination of a dedicated in-house editorial team, who closely manage article workflow, and an extensive Editorial and Advisory Board who assist with rapid peer review. This allows the journal to support the rapid dissemination of research, whilst still providing robust peer review. Combined with the journal’s open access model, this allows for the rapid and efficient communication of the latest research and reviews to support scientific discovery and clinical practice. Open Access All articles published by Neurology and Therapy are open access. Personal Service The journal’s dedicated in-house editorial team offer a personal “concierge service” meaning that authors will always have a personal point of contact able to update them on the status of their manuscript. The editorial team check all manuscripts to ensure that articles conform to the most recent COPE and ICMJE publishing guidelines. This supports the publication of ethically sound and transparent research. We also encourage pre-submission enquiries and are always happy to provide a confidential assessment of manuscripts. Digital Features and Plain Language Summaries Neurology and Therapy offers a range of additional features designed to increase the visibility, readership and educational value of the journal’s content. Each article is accompanied by key summary points, giving a time-efficient overview of the content to a wide readership. Articles may be accompanied by plain language summaries to assist readers who have some knowledge of, but not in-depth expertise in, the area to understand the scientific content and overall implications of the article. The journal also provides the option to include various types of digital features including animated abstracts, video abstracts, slide decks, audio slides, instructional videos, infographics, podcasts and animations. All additional features are peer reviewed to the same high standard as the article itself. If you consider that your paper would benefit from the inclusion of a digital feature, please let us know. Our editorial team are able to create high-quality slide decks and infographics in-house, and video abstracts through our partner Research Square, and would be happy to assist in any way we can. For further information about digital features, please contact the journal editor (see ‘Contact the Journal’ for email address), and see the ‘Guidelines for digital features and plain language summaries’ document under ‘Submission guidelines’. For examples of digital features please visit our showcase page https://springerhealthcare.com/expertise/publishing-digital-features/ Publication Fees Upon acceptance of an article, authors will be required to pay the mandatory Rapid Service Fee of €5250/$6000/£4300. The journal will consider fee discounts and waivers for developing countries and this is decided on a case-by-case basis. Peer Review Process Upon submission, manuscripts are assessed by the editorial team to ensure they fit within the aims and scope of the journal and are also checked for plagiarism. All suitable submissions are then subject to a comprehensive single-blind peer review. Reviewers are selected based on their relevant expertise and publication history in the subject area. The journal has an extensive pool of editorial and advisory board members who have been selected to assist with peer review based on the afore-mentioned criteria. At least two extensive reviews are required to make the editorial decision, with the exception of some article types such as Commentaries, Editorials and Letters which are generally reviewed by one member of the Editorial Board. Where reviews conflict, an Editorial Board Member will be contacted for further advice and a presiding decision. Manuscripts are then either accepted, rejected or authors are required to make major or minor revisions (both reviewer comments and editorial comments may need to be addressed. Once a revised manuscript is re-submitted, it is assessed along with the responses to reviewer comments and if it has been adequately revised, it will be accepted for publication. Accepted manuscripts are then copyedited and typeset by the production team before online publication. Appeals against decisions following peer review are considered on a case-by-case basis and should be sent to the journal editor, and authors are welcome to make rebuttals against individual reviewer comments, if appropriate. Preprints We encourage posting of preprints of primary research manuscripts on preprint servers, authors'' or institutional websites, and open communications between researchers whether on community preprint servers or preprint commenting platforms. Posting of preprints is not considered prior publication and will not jeopardize consideration in our journals.
