Abstract
Introduction: Risankizumab is approved for treating moderate-to-severe psoriasis. This interim analysis at 25 months evaluated the effectiveness of risankizumab compared with other approved biologics (OtherBios) among patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis in the 37-month VALUE post-marketing observational study.
Methods: Patients diagnosed with psoriasis were enrolled in a 2:1 ratio to risankizumab or OtherBios, as prescribed by their physicians. A ≥ 90% improvement in Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) 90 at months 4, 13, and 25 and the time to first treatment change at 25 months were evaluated. Additionally, PASI 100 and 75, static Physician Global Assessment (sPGA 0/1), Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI), and Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication (TSQM) scores were evaluated. All patients treated with ≥ 1 dose of biological therapy with ≥ 1 post-baseline measurement were included in the analysis. Modified non-responder imputation was used to handle missing data, and propensity score matching accounted for imbalances between comparison groups.
Results: Overall, 1765 patients received risankizumab and 874 received OtherBios. At baseline, the mean (SD) age of the overall population was 48.5 (14.7) years and mean (standard deviation [SD]) PASI scores were 15.0 (9.0) and 13.9 (8.8) in the risankizumab and OtherBios groups, respectively. At 25 months, 70.9% of those treated with risankizumab vs. 51.5% of those treated with OtherBios achieved PASI 90. The cumulative treatment change probability was 0.16 (95%, confidence interval [CI] 0.14, 0.18) in the risankizumab group and 0.29 (95% CI 0.26, 0.32) in the OtherBios group. At 25 months, a higher proportion of patients achieved PASI 100 (56.6% vs. 40.2%), PASI 75 (84.3% vs. 67.7%), sPGA 0/1 (82.6% vs. 66.2%), and DLQI 0/1 (70.0% vs. 52.9%) in the risankizumab vs. OtherBios group, respectively, and the change in mean TSQM global score was higher in the risankizumab group (86.0 vs. 79.4). All comparisons were nominally significant (P < 0.0001). No new safety signals were identified.
Conclusions: In this prospective study, risankizumab demonstrated higher effectiveness, longer drug survival, and better improvement of patient-reported outcomes at 25 months compared with OtherBios.
期刊介绍:
Dermatology and Therapy is an international, open access, peer-reviewed, rapid publication journal (peer review in 2 weeks, published 3–4 weeks from acceptance). The journal is dedicated to the publication of high-quality clinical (all phases), observational, real-world, and health outcomes research around the discovery, development, and use of dermatological therapies. Studies relating to diagnosis, pharmacoeconomics, public health and epidemiology, quality of life, and patient care, management, and education are also encouraged.
Areas of focus include, but are not limited to all clinical aspects of dermatology, such as skin pharmacology; skin development and aging; prevention, diagnosis, and management of skin disorders and melanomas; research into dermal structures and pathology; and all areas of aesthetic dermatology, including skin maintenance, dermatological surgery, and lasers.
The journal is of interest to a broad audience of pharmaceutical and healthcare professionals and publishes original research, reviews, case reports/case series, trial protocols, and short communications. Dermatology 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 quality research, which may be considered of insufficient interest by other journals. The journal appeals to a global audience and receives submissions from all over the world.
