Deucravacitinib in plaque psoriasis: Four-year safety and efficacy results from the Phase 3 POETYK PSO-1, PSO-2 and long-term extension trials.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Deucravacitinib, an oral, selective, allosteric tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) inhibitor, is approved in multiple countries for treatment of adults with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis who are candidates for systemic therapy.

Objectives

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of deucravacitinib through 4 years in the Phase 3 POETYK PSO-1, PSO-2 and long-term extension (LTE) trials in psoriasis.

Methods

PSO-1 and PSO-2 (parent trials) randomized patients 1:2:1 to oral placebo, deucravacitinib 6 mg once daily (QD) or apremilast 30 mg twice daily. At 52 weeks, patients enrolled in the LTE trial received open-label deucravacitinib 6 mg QD. Safety was evaluated in patients who received ≥1 dose of deucravacitinib at any time. Clinical and patient-reported outcomes (PAS
