Psoriatic arthritis: the role of self-reported non-adherence, non-trough drug levels, immunogenicity and conventional synthetic DMARD co-therapy in adalimumab and etanercept response.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between self-reported non-adherence, non-trough drug levels, immunogenicity and conventional synthetic DMARD (csDMARD) co-therapy in TNF inhibitor (TNF-i) drug response in PsA.

Methods

Serum samples and adherence questionnaires were collected at baseline, 3, 6 and 12 months for PsA patients prescribed TNF-i. Non-trough adalimumab (ADL) and etanercept (ETN) drug levels were measured at 3 and 6 months using commercially available ELISAs. Clinical response was assessed using PsA response criteria (PsARC) and change in 28-joint DAS (ΔDAS28) between baseline and 3, 6 and 12 months.

Results

In 244 PsA patients (52.5% ADL and 47.5% ETN), self-reported non-adherence was associated with PsARC non-response over 12 m
