Intravenous Golimumab in Patients with Polyarticular Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis and Juvenile Psoriatic Arthritis and Subcutaneous Ustekinumab in Patients with Juvenile Psoriatic Arthritis: Extrapolation of Data from Studies in Adults and Adjacent Pediatric Populations.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

To describe the extrapolation approaches used to support intravenous (IV) golimumab for polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (pJIA) and juvenile psoriatic arthritis (jPsA) and subcutaneous (SC) ustekinumab for jPsA.

Methods

Pharmacokinetic, clinical response, and safety data from trials of IV golimumab and SC ustekinumab in polyarticular-course JIA (pc-JIA) (GO-VIVA) or pediatric psoriasis (PsO) (CADMUS and CADMUS Jr) and data from pivotal, phase 3 trials of these agents in adults with similar diseases were used to support extrapolation in pJIA and jPsA. In the phase 3 GO-VIVA trial, patients with pc-JIA aged 2 to < 18 years received IV golimumab 80 mg/m² at weeks 0, 4, then every 8 weeks (Q8W). In the phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled CADM
