Speed and Cumulative Responses According to Body Regions in Patients with Moderate-to-Severe Plaque Psoriasis Treated with Ixekizumab (Interleukin-17A Antagonist) versus Guselkumab (Interleukin-23p19 Inhibitor).

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

When assessing the effect of a therapy for psoriasis (PsO), it is important to consider speed of response and cumulative response. However, responses among biologics may differ by body regions. This post hoc analysis compares speed of response and cumulative response for ixekizumab (IXE), an interleukin-17A antagonist, and guselkumab (GUS), an interleukin-23p19 inhibitor, in different body regions of patients with moderate-to-severe plaque PsO participating in the IXORA-R study, up to week 24.

Methods

The IXORA-R design has been previously described. Patients received the respective on-label dosing of IXE or GUS. The median time to first Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) 50, 75, 90, and 100 response (50%, 75%, 90%, and 100% improvement from baseline, resp
