Efficacy and Safety of Dimethyl Fumarate in Patients with Moderate-to-Severe Plaque Psoriasis: Results from a 52-Week Open-Label Phase IV Clinical Trial (DIMESKIN 1).

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Although dimethyl fumarate (DMF) has been approved since 2017 for treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis, limited data on its safety and efficacy are available in clinical practice. The objective was to assess the efficacy and safety of DMF in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis through 52 weeks in conditions close to real clinical practice.

Methods

DIMESKIN 1 was a 52-week, open-label, phase IV clinical trial conducted at 36 Spanish sites. Adults with diagnosis of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis, treated with DMF as per its summary of product characteristics and with ≥ 1 post-baseline Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) value were included [intention-to-treat (ITT) population]. Efficacy analyses were performed for ITT population
