Abstract
BackgroundThe efficacy of guselkumab (GUS), a fully human IL-23p19 subunit inhibitor, in patients (pts) with active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) has been previously shown across a variety of PsA domains and baseline (BL) pt characteristics[1-3]. Given the central role of the IL-23/Th17 pathway in PsA, it has been hypothesized that IL-23 inhibition with GUS may provide persistent and durable clinical responses between doses and over time when administered every 8 weeks (Q8W).ObjectivesTo assess at the pt level the persistence of effect of GUS Q8W between doses and its durability of effect over time.MethodsDISCOVER-2 was a phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo (PBO)-controlled study that enrolled pts with active PsA despite standard therapies. Pts were biologic-naïve, had tender and swollen joint counts (TJC/SJC) each ≥5, and C-reactive protein (CRP) ≥0.6 mg/dL. Pts were randomized 1:1:1 to GUS 100 mg Q4W; GUS 100 mg at W0, W4, then Q8W; or PBO with crossover to GUS 100 mg Q4W at W24. In the current analysis, only pts treated with GUS Q8W (N=248) were included. Persistence of effect between consecutive dosing visits was described with the proportion of pts maintaining response (as defined below) in outcomes assessed during dosing visits (Disease Activity index for PsA [DAPSA], clinical DAPSA [cDAPSA]). Durability of effect was assessed with the Kaplan Meier estimator of the survival function where each pt contributed follow-up from the first time of achievement of clinical response within the 24-week period and the time of loss of response or last available assessment through W100. Definitions of clinical response included achievement of clear/almost clear skin (investigator’s global assessment [IGA] 0/1; among pts with BL IGA>1) or minimal clinically important improvements (MCII) in DAPSA (≥7.25), cDAPSA (≥5.7), skin visual analog scale (VAS; ≥15 mm), and PsA Disease Activity Score (PASDAS; ≥0.8).ResultsBetween consecutive (Q8W) dosing visits through W52, the proportion of pts maintaining response ranged from 93.3% (DAPSA MCII between W4 and W12) to 99.1% (DAPSA/cDAPSA MCII between W28 and W36), depending on the time interval. Among pts showing clinical response within the first 24 weeks, the estimated mean (SE) duration of maintenance was 58.6 (2.2) weeks for DAPSA MCII, 52.4 (2.0) weeks for cDAPSA MCII, 75.7 (1.6) weeks for.IGA 0/1, 71.7 (1.9) weeks for skin VAS MCII, and 76.7 (1.4) weeks for PASDAS MCII (Figure 1). As estimated probabilities of maintenance of effect at W100 were between 65% (IGA 0/1) and 90% (PASDAS MCII) for all outcomes assessed, median duration of effect could not be calculated.ConclusionTreatment with GUS Q8W was associated with long-lasting effects in both joint- and skin-related outcomes, as well as in multi-domain composite outcomes, in individuals with PsA. These results highlight that, in addition to continuous improvement in clinical response rates over time, GUS Q8W provides consistent and highly durable responses between consecutive doses.References[1]McInnes IB, et al.
