Deucravacitinib, an Oral, Selective, Allosteric Tyrosine Kinase 2 Inhibitor, in Asian Patients With Moderate to Severe Psoriasis: Improvements in Patient-Reported Outcomes in a Randomized Trial.

ABSTRACT: POETYK PSO-3, a 52-week, double-blind, phase 3 study, evaluated the efficacy and safety of deucravacitinib, an oral, selective, allosteric tyrosine kinase 2 inhibitor, in adult patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis in mainland China, Taiwan, and South Korea. Secondary and additional endpoints included improvement on two patient-reported outcome measures: the Psoriasis Symptoms and Signs Diary (PSSD) total score and the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI). Patients were randomized 1:2 to placebo or deucravacitinib 6 mg once daily; at week 16, patients receiving placebo crossed over to receive deucravacitinib. PSSD and DLQI score changes from baseline and response rates for achieving meaningful within-patient change from baseline in PSSD total score (≥ 15 points) and DLQI of 0
