Risankizumab for the Treatment of Moderate to Severe Plaque Psoriasis in the Russian Federation.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Risankizumab has demonstrated efficacy and safety in phase 3 studies in patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. This randomized clinical trial assessed the efficacy and safety of risankizumab in patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis in the Russian Federation.

Methods

Patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis were randomized 4:1 to 16 weeks of double-blind treatment with risankizumab 150 mg or placebo (period A; dosing at baseline and week 4) followed by an open-label extension (period B) during which all patients received risankizumab 150 mg at weeks 16, 28, and 40 and were followed up to week 52. The primary study endpoint was the proportion of patients achieving ≥ 90% improvement in the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI 90) at week 16, and secondary endpoints included Static Physician's Global Assessment scores and the Dermatology Life Quality Index. Treatment-emergent adverse events were monitored throughout the two study periods.

Results

Of the 50 patients who entered period A, 41 were randomized to receive risankizumab and 9 to receive placebo. Forty-eight patients entered period B, and 47 completed the study. A significantly larger proportion of risankizumab-treated patients achieved PASI 90 at week 16 compared with placebo-treated patients [response rate difference: 38.8% (95% CI 7.8-69.7%; P = 0.035)]. Consistently higher proportions of risankizumab-treated patients achieved secondary endpoints compared with the placebo-treated patients. Safety profiles were similar between the treatment groups, and no patients discontinued the study drug owing to adverse events.

Conclusion

Risankizumab was efficacious and well tolerated in patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis in the Russian Federation.

Project description:ImportanceRisankizumab selectively inhibits interleukin 23, a cytokine that contributes to psoriatic inflammation.ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of risankizumab vs placebo and continuous treatment vs withdrawal in adults with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.Design, setting, and participantsMultinational, phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial conducted from March 6, 2016, to July 26, 2018. A total of 507 eligible patients had stable moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis for 6 months or longer, body surface area involvement greater than or equal to 10%, Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) greater than or equal to 12, and a static Physician's Global Assessment (sPGA) score greater than or equal to 3. Intention-to-treat analysis was conducted.InterventionsPatients were randomized (4:1, interactive response technology) to risankizumab, 150 mg, subcutaneously, or placebo at weeks 0 and 4 (part A1). All patients received risankizumab at week 16. At week 28, patients randomized to risankizumab who achieved an sPGA score of 0/1 were rerandomized 1:2 to risankizumab or placebo every 12 weeks (part B).Main outcomes and measuresCo-primary end points for the part A1 phase included proportions of patients achieving greater than or equal to 90% improvement in PASI (PASI 90) and sPGA score of 0/1 at week 16. The PASI measures severity of erythema, infiltration, and desquamation weighted by area of skin involvement over the head, trunk, upper extremities, and lower extremities; scores range from 0 (no disease) to 72 (maximal disease activity). The sPGA assesses average thickness, erythema, and scaling of all psoriatic lesions; scores range from 0 (clear) to 4 (severe), with 0/1 indicating clear or almost clear. Primary and secondary end points in part B included proportion of rerandomized patients achieving an sPGA score of 0/1 at week 52 (primary) and week 104 (secondary).ResultsOf 563 patients screened, 507 were randomized to risankizumab (n = 407) or placebo (n = 100). Most patients were men (356 [70.2%]); median age was 51 years (interquartile range, 38-60 years). At week 16, 298 patients (73.2%) in the treatment group vs 2 patients (2.0%) receiving placebo achieved a PASI 90 response, and 340 patients (83.5%) receiving risankizumab vs 7 patients (7.0%) receiving placebo achieved sPGA 0/1 scores (placebo-adjusted differences: PASI 90: 70.8%; 95% CI, 65.7%-76.0%; sPGA 0/1: 76.5%; 95% CI, 70.4%-82.5%; P < .001 for both). At week 28, 336 responders were rerandomized to risankizumab (n = 111) or treatment withdrawal (n = 225). At week 52, the sPGA 0/1 score was achieved by 97 patients (87.4%) receiving risankizumab vs 138 patients (61.3%) receiving placebo. At week 104, the sPGA 0/1 score was achieved by 90 patients (81.1%) receiving risankizumab vs 16 patients (7.1%) receiving placebo (placebo-adjusted differences: week 52: 25.9%; 95% CI, 17.3%-34.6%; week 104: 73.9%; 95% CI, 66.0%-81.9%; P < .001 for both). Rates of treatment-emergent adverse events were similar between risankizumab (186 [45.7%]) and placebo (49 [49.0%]) in part A1 and remained stable over time.Conclusions and relevanceRisankizumab showed superior efficacy compared with placebo through 16 weeks and treatment withdrawal through 2 years. Risankizumab was well tolerated, with no unexpected safety findings during the 2-year trial.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02672852.

Project description:IntroductionRisankizumab has demonstrated efficacy in treating moderate-to-severe psoriasis. The phase-3 IMMhance trial (NCT02672852) examined the effect of continuing versus withdrawing from risankizumab treatment on psoriasis severity, including the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) and static Physician Global Assessment (sPGA). However, the effect of withdrawal on health-related quality of life (HRQL) was not assessed. Therefore, this study was conducted to evaluate the impact of risankizumab withdrawal on HRQL measured by the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI). Because DLQI was not measured beyond week 16 in IMMhance, a machine learning predictive model for DLQI was developed.MethodsA machine learning model for DLQI was fitted using repeated measures data from three phase-3 trials (NCT02684370, NCT02684357, NCT02694523) (pooled N = 1602). An elastic-net algorithm performed automated variable selection among candidate predictors including concurrent PASI and sPGA, demographics, and interaction terms. The machine learning model was used to predict DLQI at weeks 28-104 of IMMhance among patients re-randomized to continue (N = 111) or withdraw from (N = 225) risankizumab after achieving response (sPGA = 0/1) at week 28.ResultsThe machine learning predictive model demonstrated good statistical fit during tenfold cross-validation and external validation against observed DLQI at weeks 0-16 of IMMhance (N = 507). Predicted improvements in DLQI from baseline were lower in the withdrawal versus the continuation cohort (mean DLQI change at week 104, -5.9 versus -11.5, difference [95% CI] = 5.6 [4.1, 7.3]). Predicted DLQI deteriorated more extensively than PASI (49.7% versus 36.4%) after treatment withdrawal.ConclusionsThe predicted DLQI score deteriorated more rapidly after risankizumab withdrawal than the PASI score, an objective measure of disease. These findings suggest that the deterioration in HRQL reflects more substantial impacts after risankizumab discontinuation than those measured by PASI only.
