 Method: IMMprint, a Ph3b study evaluated safety and efficacy of RZB vs. PBO in moderate-to-severe PPPsO patients with a static physician’s global assessment(sPGA) of moderate or severe ≥3, palmoplantar psoriasis area and severity index(PPASI) ≥8 and at least 1 additional PsO plaque. The 52-week treatment was split into period A, patients randomized (1:1) to RZB 150-mg or PBO, and period B, patients continuing RZB or switching from PBO to RZB (PBO/RZB). Primary endpoint was achievement of palmoplantar investigator’s global assessment (ppIGA) 0/1 with at least 2-point reduction from baseline at Wk16. Ranked secondary endpoints include ≥75% & 90% improvement in PPASI (PPASI75, PPASI90), sPGA 0/1 and 100% improvement in PPASI(PPASI100) at Wk16.
 Results: Of 174 enrolled, 87(mean age[SD]: 56.9[12.9] years) were randomized to RZB and 87(mean age[SD]: 53.9[14.3] years) were randomized to PBO. Baseline characteristics were similar except for numerical difference in PsA (RZB vs. PBO: 11.5% vs 4.6%, respectively). At Wk16, a significantly higher proportion receiving RZB achieved ppIGA 0/1 than PBO(33.3% vs. 16.1%, p = 0.006). Patients receiving RZB also demonstrated significantly higher responses than patients receiving PBO in all ranked secondary endpoints: PPASI75 (42.5% vs 14.9%, P < 0.001); PPASI90 (27.6% vs 5.7%, p<0.001); sPGA 0/1 (32.2% vs 11.5%, p < 0.001); and PPASI100 (17.2% vs. 1.1%, p < 0.001). Four patients (3 RZB: 1 PBO) discontinued drug in period A. At Wk52, ppIGA 0/1 was achieved by 50.6% of RZB patients and 61.7% of PBO/RZB group. Proportion of patients achieving PPASI75 at Wk52 was 57.5%(RZB) vs. 65.4% (PBO/RZB). Achievement of sPGA 0/1 (%RZB vs. %PBO/RZB) was 43.7% vs. 66.7%; PPASI100 was achieved by 26.4% (RZB) and 37.0% (PBO/RZB) patients at Wk52. Proportion of patients with adverse events were 29.1%(RZB) and 23.0%(PBO) in period A, and 49.4%(RZB) and 35.8% (PBO/RZB) in period B. One RZB patient with prior cardiovascular risk factors had an adjudicated myocardial infarction and subsequently died after 140-day follow-up period. The number of patients with COVID-19 were 3 (RZB; 1 serious infection) and 2(PBO) in period A and 11 (RZB) and 7 (PBO/RZB) in period B.
 Conclusion: This study demonstrates RZB can provide effective improvement compared to PBO by Wk16 with continuous improvement until Wk52 with no new safety signals in patients with moderate-to-severe PPPsO.","PeriodicalId":86868,"journal":{"name":"Skin","volume":"69 7","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136282147","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

 Objective: To share our insights into the growth and maintenance of a teledermatology program that sees over 100,000 cases a year. 
 Methods: Retrospective review of a teledermatology program between 2015 and 2022. Outcomes were compared between the initial phase from 2015-2017 and the maturation phase from 2018-2022.
 Results: In 2015, the teledermatology program was piloted in 3 hospital centers and expanded to 10 more centers by 2017. There was a total of 12,385 cases in 2015, which increased to 139,110 cases in 2022. Despite the dramatic increase in number of cases, our program adapted well: the initial phase of program development resulted in 69.2% of concerns being treated remotely, compared to 70.9% of submissions in the later years, p <0.001.
 Limitations: Overall generalizability as this study was performed in a large integrated health system.
 Discussion: We maintain that the following can help scale a teledermatology program: 1. Communication with all interested parties; 2. Streamlined implementation of technological devices; 3. Training for dermatologists and primary providers; 4. Image guidelines to maintain photo quality.","PeriodicalId":86868,"journal":{"name":"Skin","volume":"9 8","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136282436","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Mohs appropriate use criteria (AUC) score was developed to quantify the appropriateness of Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) based on multiple tumor and patient characteristics. Objectives: Stratify KCs by treatment modality used and compare to Mohs AUC score. Methods: Conducted a retrospective review of 11,145 consecutive KCs between 01/2017 and 12/2021, comparing associated Mohs AUC score with modality selected. Results: The average Mohs AUC score for all KCs combined was 7.1 with 8714 (78.2%) qualifying for MMS via AUC score. However, MMS was only done on 2813 (32.3%) of KCs. Excisional surgery was used to treat 4580 (41.1%) of KCs, 2777 (24.9%) were treated with electrodesiccation and curettage (ED&C), and 732 (6.6%) were treated with biopsy only. Of those KCs treated with excision, ED&C, or a biopsy, 70.7%, 70.7%, and 72.4% reached an “appropriate” Mohs AUC score for MMS respectively. Limitations: This is a single private practice, with two board certified dermatologists Conclusions: Mohs AUC score can help determine if a KC warrants MMS; however, in our practice, MMS was necessary for only 32.3% of the KCs that qualified based on the Mohs AUC score.","PeriodicalId":86868,"journal":{"name":"Skin","volume":"57 17","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136283403","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
