Long-term efficacy and safety of risankizumab for the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis: interim analysis of the LIMMitless open-label extension trial beyond 3 years of follow-up.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease requiring prolonged treatment. New biologic therapies require long-term evaluation to assess the durability of their efficacy and safety profiles over time.

Objectives

To evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of risankizumab (RZB) for the treatment of psoriasis.

Methods

LIMMitless is an ongoing, phase III, open-label extension study evaluating the long-term efficacy and safety of RZB in adults with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis following multiple phase II/III studies. This analysis assessed efficacy through 172 weeks of continuous RZB treatment by examining the proportion of patients achieving ≥ 90% or 100% improvement in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI 90 and PASI 100), static Physician's Global Assessment of clear or almost clear (sPGA 0/1) and Dermatology Life Quality Index of no effect on quality of life (DLQI 0/1). Safety was assessed by recording adverse events (AEs) through the data cutoff date. The study is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (identifier: NCT03047395).

Results

Of 955 patients randomized to RZB 150 mg in the base studies, 897 patients continued into LIMMitless; 799 patients were still receiving treatment in LIMMitless at the time of data cutoff for this analysis. After 172 weeks of continuous RZB treatment, 85·5% of patients achieved PASI 90, 54·4% achieved PASI 100, 85·2% achieved sPGA 0/1, and 78·4% achieved DLQI 0/1 using modified nonresponder imputation. Rates of AEs leading to discontinuation and AEs of safety interest were low with long-term treatment and comparable with those identified in the base studies.

Conclusions

Overall, long-term continuous RZB was well tolerated and showed high and durable efficacy over 172 weeks.

Project description:Brodalumab, an interleukin-17 receptor A inhibitor, demonstrated rapid and robust efficacy with a favorable safety profile in patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. Here, we present data from a multicenter, open-label extension study in patients with plaque psoriasis with/without psoriatic arthritis who completed 64 weeks of treatment with brodalumab (140 or 210 mg, every 2 weeks [Q2W]). Patients were enrolled to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of a modified dose of brodalumab. Eligible patients were switched to a reduced dose of brodalumab (140 mg every 4 weeks on day 1) in the extension study; the dose and dosing interval were modified sequentially at the physician's discretion (minimum 140 mg every 8 weeks and maximum 210 mg Q2W) until drug approval, after which all patients were switched to 210 mg Q2W for postmarketing surveillance. Of the 129 patients enrolled, 107 (82.9%) completed the 108-week or more extension study. All patients had psoriasis that was well controlled with brodalumab treatment on day 1. Improvement in psoriasis-related symptoms, evaluated with the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index, Psoriasis Scalp Severity Index, Dermatology Life Quality Index, Nail Psoriasis Severity Index, and American College of Rheumatology 20, 50 and 70, was maintained during the 108-week extension study. Brodalumab treatment was well tolerated throughout, and no new safety signals were identified. The most commonly reported treatment-related adverse event was nasopharyngitis, followed by influenza and oral candidiasis. No cases of serious candida infection or Crohn's disease were observed in this study. Serious treatment-related adverse events, such as appendicitis, brain abscess, bacterial meningitis, colon cancer, immunoglobulin A nephropathy and tubulointerstitial nephritis, were reported in one patient each. No anti-brodalumab-binding antibodies or brodalumab-neutralizing antibodies were detected in any patient throughout the extension study. Overall, the long-term efficacy and safety of brodalumab were demonstrated over 108 weeks.

Project description:ImportanceSafe and effective long-term treatments for moderate to severe plaque psoriasis are needed.ObjectiveTo evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of deucravacitinib through 3 years (week 148) in the randomized POETYK PSO-1, PSO-2, and nonrandomized long-term extension (LTE) trials.Design, setting, and participantsPSO-1/PSO-2 were global, 52-week, randomized, double-blinded phase 3 trials in patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. After completing 52 weeks of treatment in PSO-1/PSO-2, patients could enroll in the prespecified, ongoing, nonrandomized LTE trial. The peak of the global COVID-19 pandemic coincided with the LTE trial. Patient enrollment in the LTE started August 12, 2019; safety and efficacy were assessed through June 15, 2022; and these data were analyzed through June 28, 2024.InterventionsThe PSO-1/PSO-2 trials randomized patients 1:2:1 to oral placebo, deucravacitinib, 6 mg once daily, or apremilast, 30 mg twice daily. Patients enrolling in the LTE trial received open-label deucravacitinib, 6 mg once daily.Main outcomes and measuresSafety outcomes were evaluated in patients who received 1 or more doses of deucravacitinib. Efficacy outcomes included 75% or greater or 90% or greater reduction from baseline in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI 75/90) and static Physician Global Assessment scores of 0 (clear) or 1 (almost clear) (sPGA 0/1) and were assessed in patients who received deucravacitinib treatment from day 1 of the parent trials who continued in the LTE trial.ResultsOf 1519 patients who received 1 or more doses of deucravacitinib, 513 received continuous deucravacitinib treatment from day 1 and entered the LTE trial. Exposure-adjusted incidence rates (EAIRs) per 100 person-years were decreased or similar in the 1-year vs 3-year cumulative periods, respectively, for adverse events (AEs) (229.2 vs 144.8; 95% CI, 215.4-243.9 vs 137.1-153.0), serious AEs (5.7 vs 5.5; 95% CI, 4.4-7.4 vs 4.7-6.4), discontinuations due to AEs (4.4 vs 2.4; 95% CI, 3.3-5.9 vs 2.0-3.0), and deaths (0.2 vs 0.3; 95% CI, 0.1-0.8 vs 0.2-0.6). Incidence rates of the most common AEs (EAIR per 100 person-years ≥5) during the 1-year and 3-year cumulative periods, respectively, were nasopharyngitis (26.1 vs 11.4; 95% CI, 23.0-29.8 vs 10.2-12.7), COVID-19 (0.5 vs 8.0; 95% CI, 0.2-1.2 vs 7.1-9.1), and upper respiratory tract infection (13.4 vs 6.2; 95% CI, 11.3-16.0 vs 5.4-7.2). EAIRs for AEs of interest, including herpes zoster, major adverse cardiovascular events, and malignant diseases, remained low and were decreased or comparable between the 1-year and 3-year cumulative periods. Clinical response rates were maintained through 3 years.Conclusions and relevanceThe findings of this integrated analysis of the phase 3 POETYK PSO-1, PSO-2, and nonrandomized LTE trials demonstrate a consistent safety profile and durable clinical response of continuous treatment with deucravacitinib through 3 years of treatment in patients with psoriasis.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov Identifiers: NCT03624127, NCT03611751, and NCT04036435.
