Exploratory Efficacy Evaluation of Apremilast for the Treatment of Japanese Patients with Palmoplantar Pustulosis: 32-Week Results from a Phase 2, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Study.
Introduction: Palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP) is a pruritic, painful, chronic dermatitis that greatly impacts functioning and quality of life and can be difficult to treat. Approved treatment options for PPP are limited, and many patients do not fully respond to current treatments.
Methods: This was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 2 study in Japanese patients with moderate to severe PPP and inadequate response to topical treatment. Patients were randomized 1:1 to receive apremilast 30 mg twice daily or placebo for 16 weeks followed by an extension phase where all patients received apremilast through week 32. PPP Area and Severity Index (PPPASI), modified PPPASI (which evaluates pustules and vesicles separately), and Palmoplantar Severity Index (PPSI) total scores and subscores (erythema, pustules/vesicles, and desquamation/scales) were evaluated over 32 weeks of apremilast treatment. Achievement of ≥ 50% improvement in PPPASI (PPPASI-50) was evaluated at week 16 among baseline demographic and clinical characteristic subgroups.
Results: At week 16, improvements in total score and subscores for PPPASI, modified PPASI, and PPSI, as well as rates of PPPASI-50 were at least moderately greater with apremilast than placebo. Mean PPPASI total score decreased by - 68.3% from baseline to week 32 with continued apremilast treatment. At week 32, mean change from baseline in PPPASI/modified PPPASI subscores ranged from - 58.5% to - 77.0% with apremilast. At week 32, PPSI total score for physician and patient assessments decreased by - 51.3% and - 40.0%, respectively, with continued apremilast treatment. PPPASI-50 response at week 16 was greater with apremilast versus placebo in most demographic and baseline characteristic subgroups.
Conclusions: Improvements in all PPPASI and PPSI total scores and subscores observed with apremilast over 16 weeks were maintained through 32 weeks in patients with moderate to severe PPP and inadequate response to topical treatment. Rates of PPPASI-50 response at week 16 were mostly consistent across patient subgroups.
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.
