Abstract
Introduction: Despite advancements in the treatment of psoriasis (PsO), there are few head-to-head studies assessing comparative effectiveness of the newest therapies approved to treat PsO. Our objective was to assess the comparative clinical effectiveness of risankizumab and deucravacitinib in patients with moderate-to-severe PsO.
Methods: This placebo-anchored matching-adjusted indirect comparison (MAIC) analysis utilized data from UltIMMa-1/2 risankizumab and POETYK PSO-1/2 deucravacitinib trials. Individual patient data from UltiMMA-1/2 were weighted via propensity score to match POETYK PSO-1/2 published summary data. Rate differences between risankizumab and deucravacitinib were assessed for Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) 75/90/100, the Static Physician Global Assessment (sPGA = 0 or 0/1), and the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) 0/1.
Results: At 16 weeks, risankizumab-treated patients demonstrated statistically significantly higher rates of skin clearance and greater improvement in quality of life (QoL) compared to those treated with deucravacitinib. Across all outcomes, risankizumab demonstrated a lower number needed to treat compared to deucravacitinib. Limitations are potential bias due to unobserved/unmeasurable differences and limited generalizability of the results.
Conclusions: This indirect comparison demonstrates that risankizumab has higher rates of skin clearance and greater improvements in QoL than deucravacitinib. This study will help inform healthcare providers in their treatment and management strategy of PsO.
期刊介绍:
Dermatology and Therapy is an international, open access, peer-reviewed, rapid publication journal (peer review in 2 weeks, published 3–4 weeks from acceptance). The journal is dedicated to the publication of high-quality clinical (all phases), observational, real-world, and health outcomes research around the discovery, development, and use of dermatological therapies. Studies relating to diagnosis, pharmacoeconomics, public health and epidemiology, quality of life, and patient care, management, and education are also encouraged.
Areas of focus include, but are not limited to all clinical aspects of dermatology, such as skin pharmacology; skin development and aging; prevention, diagnosis, and management of skin disorders and melanomas; research into dermal structures and pathology; and all areas of aesthetic dermatology, including skin maintenance, dermatological surgery, and lasers.
The journal is of interest to a broad audience of pharmaceutical and healthcare professionals and publishes original research, reviews, case reports/case series, trial protocols, and short communications. Dermatology and Therapy will consider all scientifically sound research be it positive, confirmatory or negative data. Submissions are welcomed whether they relate to an International and/or a country-specific audience, something that is crucially important when researchers are trying to target more specific patient populations. This inclusive approach allows the journal to assist in the dissemination of quality research, which may be considered of insufficient interest by other journals. The journal appeals to a global audience and receives submissions from all over the world.
