Abstract
Introduction: Systemic immunomodulatory treatments may affect cardiovascular and renal outcomes in patients with chronic plaque psoriasis. We conducted a network meta-analysis (NMA) to compare these outcomes of systemic treatments for plaque psoriasis.
Methods: Databases were searched from inception through June 1, 2023. We conducted duplicate study selection, data extraction, bias assessment risk, and NMA evidence certainty assessment and analyses. Outcomes included proportion of participants achieving Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) 75 and/or 90 and those with (1) total cardiovascular events, (2) major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), (3) other cardiovascular events, and (4) total renal events.
Results: We included 68 randomized clinical trials (n = 34,414 patients). Compared with placebo, bimekizumab (odds ratio [OR] 101.12, 95% confidence interval [CI] 34.26-301.46, surface under the cumulative ranking curve [SUCRA] 27, high certainty) was the top treatment demonstrating better PASI 75 and had reduced total cardiovascular events (OR 0.06, 95% CI 0-0.80, SUCRA 89, moderate certainty). Ixekizumab (OR 86.92, 95% CI 39.06-199.66, SUCRA 15, high certainty) showed better PASI 90 rates but was associated with increased MACE over placebo (OR 3.26, 95% CI 1.26-9.31, SUCRA 26, high certainty) and bimekizumab (OR 31.92, 95% CI 2.01, 1123.25), moderate certainty). Renal outcomes were similar among groups.
Conclusion: Bimekizumab showed better therapeutic efficacy scores and safety profile than other agents. Ixekizumab may increase cardiovascular risk and should be used with caution. Reliable long-term safety data of the treatments analyzed here require assessing non-randomized studies and examining postmarketing reports from regulatory agencies.
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.
