Abstract
Introduction: Risankizumab has demonstrated superior efficacy compared to other psoriasis treatments, including secukinumab, adalimumab, and ustekinumab; switching to risankizumab from other psoriasis treatments has shown superior clinical and quality of life (QoL) outcomes. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of directly switching patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis and a suboptimal response to interleukin (IL)-17 inhibitors (secukinumab or ixekizumab) to risankizumab.
Methods: This 52-week, phase 3b study enrolled patients (≥ 18 years) with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis who had previously been treated with the recommended dose of secukinumab or ixekizumab for ≥ 6 months but did not achieve an optimal response (static Physician's Global Assessment [sPGA] 2/3; body surface are [BSA] 3- < 10%). Patients received subcutaneous risankizumab (150 mg) without washout. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients achieving sPGA of 0/1 at week 16. Secondary endpoints included sPGA 0/1 at week 52, sPGA 0, Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) 0/1, and Psoriasis Symptoms Scale (PSS) 0 at weeks 16 and 52. Safety was monitored throughout the study.
Results: The study included 244 patients. sPGA 0/1 was achieved by 57.4% and 62.3% at week 16 and 52. At week 16, sPGA 0, DLQI 0/1, and PSS 0 were achieved by 20.5%, 40.2%, and 20.9%, respectively. At week 52, these proportions increased to 27.1% for sPGA 0, 47.2% for DLQI 0/1, and 27.5% for PSS 0. Most frequently reported adverse events (reported in ≥ 5% of patients) in risankizumab-treated patients were COVID-19 infection (8.6%) and nasopharyngitis (5.7%). No new safety signals were observed.
Conclusions: Directly switching to risankizumab improved outcomes and QoL in patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis who had suboptimal responses to anti-IL-17 inhibitors (secukinumab or ixekizumab). The safety results are consistent with previously reported safety of risankizumab. This study supports the efficacy of risankizumab in patients previously treated with biologics, including IL-17 inhibitors, and suggests a direct switch to risankizumab for improved clinical outcomes and QoL.
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.
