Abstract

This open-label multicentre trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of oral dimethyl fumarate (DMF) in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis in real-life clinical practice over 52 weeks. Disease severity and improvement were assessed using the psoriasis area severity index (PASI), body surface area (BSA) affected, and Physician Global Assessment (PGA). Quality of life (QoL) was assessed using the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) questionnaire. The visual analogue scale (VAS) was used to quantify pruritus and measure treatment satisfaction. A total of 141 patients were included, being 66.7% male, aged 49.1 ± 14.7 years and with disease duration of 16 ± 12.1 years. After 52 weeks, mean PASI decreased from 15.9 ± 6.8 to 1.5 ± 2 and 87.7%, 56.9% and 24.6% of patients achieved PASI 75/90/100 response, respectively. BSA decreased from 26.5 ± 14.8% to 2.7 ± 3.5% at 52 weeks, and 81.5% of patients had a PGA 0-1. DLQI scores decreased from 9.4 ± 6.4 to 2.1 ± 3.3, and VAS of pruritus decreased from 53 ± 28.4 to 19.1 ± 26.2 at Week 52. VAS for treatment satisfaction was 79.4 ± 29.4 at Week 52. A total of 34.2% of patients had an AE leading to permanent discontinuation. These findings show that DMF can significantly improve indices of disease severity, pruritus and QoL, with high levels of patient satisfaction and similar safety profile to other fumarates.

Abstract

Background The susceptibility of patients with chronic plaque psoriasis and the risks or benefits related to the use of biological therapies for COVID-19 are unknown. Few data about prevalence, clinical course and outcomes of COVID-19 among psoriatic patients were reported. The aims of this study were 1) to assess the prevalence and severity of COVID-19 in psoriatic patients treated with biologic agents during the first phase of the emergency (22 February to 22 April 2020) in Italy, and 2) to report the clinical outcomes of patients who have been exposed to individuals with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection. Methods Patients with moderate-to-severe chronic plaque psoriasis, aged ≥18 years and undergoing treatment with biologic agents as of 22 February 2020, were eligible to be included in PSO-BIO-COVID study. Demographic and clinical characteristics of patients using any biologic for psoriasis treatment between 22 February and 22 April 2020 were registered. For all confirmed or suspected cases of COVID-19, data about concomitant disease, ongoing therapies, and comorbidities were also reported. Results A total of 12,807 psoriatic patients were included in the PSO-BIO-COVID study. In this cohort twenty-six patients (0.2%) had a swab confirmation of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Eleven patients required hospitalization and two died. 125 of 12807 patients (1.0%) with exposure to a patient with COVID-19 under quarantine or active health surveillance, were reported. Conclusion The incidence of COVID-19 observed in our cohort of psoriatic patients (0.2%) is similar to that seen in the general population (0.31%) in Italy. However, the course of the disease was mild in most patients. Biological therapies may likely lessen "cytokine storm" of COVID-19, which sometimes lead to multiple organ failure, ARDS, and death.

Abstract

Secukinumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody, neutralizes interleukin-17A, a cornerstone cytokine driving the multiple manifestations of psoriasis. This post-hoc analysis of the SUPREME study was performed to determine the sustainability of response to secukinumab in terms of Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) 90 in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. Based on PASI 90 response at week 16, patients were stratified as PASI 90 responders (PASI90R, n = 337) or non-responders (PASI90NR, n = 72). At week 20, 94.2% (n = 295/313) achieved PASI 90/100 response in PASI90R, with response maintained through week 48 (89.6%, n = 189/211). An increased proportion of patients achieved PASI 90/100 response in PASI90NR (week 20: 29.9%, n = 20/67; week 48: 57.1%, n = 20/35). Overall, 64.4% patients achieved absolute PASI score = 0 at week 24 with response sustained to week 48 (66.9%). Secukinumab showed sustained and stable efficacy in maintaining PASI 90 response in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis up to week 48.

Abstract

This study evaluated whether secukinumab treatment for patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis correlates with improvements in symptoms of anxiety and depression. SUPREME was a 24-week, phase IIIb, multicentre, prospective study conducted across 50 centres in Italy with an extension period of up to 72 weeks. Assessments used were: Psoriasis Area Sever-ity Index (PASI), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) - Anxiety (HADS-A), and HADS - Depression (HADS-D) scores and Dermatology Quality Life Index (DLQI). Compared with baseline, a significantly greater proportion of patients who reported moderate to severe clinical symptoms of anxiety or depression (HADS-A or HADS-D ≥ 11) were free of moderate to severe symptoms at weeks 16 and 48. The PASI and DLQI scores reduced over time with secukinumab treatment. Psoriasis treatment with secukinumab for 48 weeks resulted in significantly improved skin clearance and a parallel improvement in symptoms of anxiety and depression, assessed by HADS.

Abstract

Background: Psoriasis (Ps) is a chronic systemic autoimmune disease associated with pruritus in 64–98% of patients. However, few modestly sized studies assess factors associated with psoriatic pruritus. Objective: To investigate factors associated with Ps pruritus intensity. Methods: Psoriasis patients 18years or older seen in one of 155 centres in Italy between September 2005 and 2009 were identified from the Italian PsoCare registry. Patients without cutaneous psoriasis and those with missed information on pruritus were excluded. Results: We identified 10802 patients, with a mean age 48.8±14.3years. Mild itch was present in 33.2% of patients, moderate in 34.4%, severe in 18.7% and very severe in 13.7%. Higher itch intensity was associated with female gender, lower educational attainment compared to university degree, pustular psoriasis, psoriasis on the head, face, palmoplantar areas, folds and genitalia, more severe disease, disease duration

Abstract

Background Knowledge regarding differences in care for psoriatic patients is limited. The aim of this study was to investigate factors influencing prescription of systemic treatments for patients with psoriasis with a special focus on socioeconomic factors. Methods and findings This was a non-interventional, cross-sectional study, conducted in 18 Italian University and/ or hospital centers with psoriasis-specialized units. Questionnaires evaluating demographic and socioeconomic characteristics were administered to participants. Overall, 1880 consecutive patients affected by mild-to-severe psoriasis were recruited. Univariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses of systemic therapy prescription, with a special focus on biologics, accounting for the above mentioned characteristics were performed. Our analysis showed that all analyzed patients' characteristics were significantly associated with biological therapy compared to non-biological systemic one. Particularly, women were less likely to receive biologics than men (OR = 0.66; 95% CI, 0.57-0.77). Elderly patients (≥65 years) and subjects with a BMI ≥30 had lower odds to receive biologics respect to adults (≥35-64 years) (OR = 0.33; 95% CI, 0.25-0.40), and subjects with BMI≥25<30 (OR = 0.64; 95% CI, 0.53-0.77), respectively. Northern and Southern patients were both less likely to receive biologics than Central patients (OR = 0.75; 95% CI, 0.63-0.89, and OR = 0.56; 95% CI,0.47-0.68, respectively). Lower economic profile and never reading books were both associated with decreased odds of receiving biological therapy. Conclusions This study shows that sex, age, comorbidities, and socioeconomic characteristics influence the prescription of systemic treatments in psoriasis, highlighting that there are still unmet needs influencing the therapeutic decision-making process that have to be addressed.

Abstract

Background: The number of elderly patients with psoriasis is steadily increasing in the Western world; nevertheless, they are frequently excluded from biological clinical trials and described as a high-risk group for adverse events. Thus, there is lack of information concerning safety and effectiveness of available treatments for psoriasis in the elderly, particularly about new biological systemic drugs. Objective: Our aim was to describe our experience with all biological therapies currently used in the elderly (>65 years) psoriatic patients. Methods: A retrospective multicentric review of clinical records of all psoriatic patient aged 65 years or older actually receiving biological drugs (etanercept, adalimumab, infliximab, golimumab, certolizumab pegol, ustekinumab or secukinumab) was undertaken. Results: Our study population included 266 elderly psoriatic patients actually receiving any biological therapy (adalimumab 31.2%, ustekinumab 28.9%, etanercept 20.3%, secukinumab 15%, infliximab 3%, golimumab 1% and certolizumab pegol 0.6%). The PASI score at the baseline (week 0) ranged from 4 to 54; mean ± SD, 16.5 ± 7.1, which changed after biological administration to 3.7 ± 8 at week 16, 1.6 ± 2.1 at week 28 and 1.2 ± 2.1 at week 52. Among 266 elderly psoriatic patients, 25 adverse events were reported during the observation period. The most frequent events were infections with 12 (48%) reports, followed by malignancies with four (16%) reports. Conclusions: To date, our study represents the widest experience on the use of biological drugs in elderly psoriatic patients. We found that all biologics for psoriasis showed a great efficacy also in elderly people, and the rate and the type of adverse effects were similar to the younger patients. In conclusion, the age alone should not limit our therapeutic options. Further observational study using multiple data sources is needed to evaluate long-term effectiveness and safety for elderly psoriatic patients.

Abstract

SummaryBackground The nationwide prevalence of latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) in Italian patients with psoriasis has never been investigated. Objectives To estimate the nationwide prevalence of LTBI in Italian patients with psoriasis who are candidates for systemic treatment. Methods Data were obtained from the Psocare Registry on those patients (n = 4946) with age > 18 years, systemic treatment at entry specified and tuberculin skin test (TST) performed according to the Mantoux method. LTBI diagnosis was based on a positive TST result in the absence of any clinical, radiological or microbiological evidence of active tuberculosis. Results Latent tuberculosis infection was diagnosed in 8·3% of patients with psoriasis (409 of 4946). The prevalence of LTBI was lower in patients on biologics than in those on conventional systemic treatments, ranging from 4·3% (19 of 444) of patients on adalimumab to 31% (eight of 26) of those on psoralen–ultraviolet A (P

Abstract

Background: Some studies have shown that switching patients from one tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alfa inhibitor to another may be beneficial when they have an inadequate response or an adverse event. Objective: We sought to assess the variables predicting the efficacy of the second TNF-alfa inhibitor in patients discontinuing the first TNF-alfa inhibitor. Methods: Data from all 5423 consecutive patients starting TNF-alfa inhibitor therapy for psoriasis between September 2005 and September 2010 who were included in the Italian Psocare registry were analyzed. Results: In 105 patients who switched to a second TNF-alfa inhibitor who had complete follow-up data, 75% improvement in the Psoriasis Area Severity Index score (PASI 75) was reached by 29% after 16 weeks and by 45.6% after 24 weeks. Patients who switched because of secondary loss of efficacy (loss of initial PASI 75 response) or adverse events/intolerance were more likely to reach PASI 75 than those who switched as a result of primary inefficacy (PASI 75 never achieved) (hazard ratio 2.7, 95% confidence interval 1.3-5.5 vs hazard ratio 2.0, 95% confidence interval 1.0-3.9 and 1, respectively). Limitations: There was a small number of patients with complete follow-up data. Conclusion: PASI 75 response in patients who switched from one antie-TNF-alfa agent to another was significantly reduced in patients who showed primary inefficacy of the first antie-TNF-alfa.

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate variations in laboratory parameters and diagnoses of selected clinical conditions up to 16 weeks after starting a new systemic psoriasis treatment for Psocare Registry enrollees. DESIGN: Prospective cohort study. SETTING: Italian public referral centres for psoriasis treatment. PATIENTS: First-time recipients (n = 10,539) of continuous systemic psoriasis treatment for at least 16 weeks. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Mean variations in (weeks 8 and 16) and proportions of patients reaching a clinically meaningful increase in serum levels (week 16) of total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglycerides, aspartate amino transferase, alanine amino transferase and creatinine, as well as week-16 cumulative incidences of new diagnoses of diabetes mellitus and arterial hypertension. RESULTS: Mean cholesterol and triglyceride levels significantly increased in patients treated with acitretin or cyclosporine. Mean triglyceride levels also increased in efalizumab- and etanercept-treated patients. Mean transaminase values increased in methotrexate-treated patients, and mean aspartate amino transferase levels increased in infliximab-treated patients. The average serum creatinine value increased in cyclosporine-treated patients. Acitretin and cyclosporine were associated with risk of hypercholesterolaemia (odds ratios 1.51 and 1.34) and acitretin with risk of hypertriglyceridaemia (odds ratio 1.43). Methotrexate and infliximab were associated with risk of more than doubling the upper normal aspartate amino transferase (odds ratios 2.06 and 1.87) and alanine amino transferase (odds ratios 2.38 and 1.74) values. The relative risk of developing arterial hypertension and diabetes was increased for patients receiving cyclosporine (odds ratios 3.31 and 2.88). CONCLUSION: Systemic treatments for psoriasis resulted in heterogeneous effects on the parameters analysed.

Abstract

The aim of this study was to provide practical recommendations for optimizing the use of conventional and biological systemic treatments for moderate-severe chronic plaque psoriasis, particularly in case of transitioning and switching.A total number of 147 dermatologists from 33 different countries including Italy achieved consensus in providing practical recommendations for the use of conventional and biological treatments for moderate to severe psoriasis based on systematic literature review and/or expert opinion.In general, the continuous treatment regimen should be preferred in order to achieve a complete and long-term control of psoriasis. However, the treatment could be stopped or the dose reduced in case of complete disease clearance. A conventional drug could be associated to biological treatment in selected cases. Transitioning and/or switching could be considered in case of inefficacy or intolerance. A period of wash up is required if transitioning or switching is due to safety issues.This study provides practical suggestions for the optimal use of conventional and biological treatments for chronic plaque psoriasis.

Abstract

Time to improvement is a crucial characteristic for effective treatments of chronic inflammatory conditions, such as psoriasis. Apremilast is a recently approved drug, belonging to the small molecule phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitors, whose optimal safety and efficacy profile is somewhat affected by slow activity rate in clinical trials. Real world case series are suggesting a more consistent improvement, and with this additional personal investigation on 48 patients, we signal that 58% of patients achieved PASI50, and 19% PASI75 improvement in the first 8 weeks of treatment. Results at 16‐week are remarkable, with overall 55% of patients achieving PASI 75, 21% PASI 90 and 14% PASI 100. Only 8 patients (18, 6%) had slightly improved, although satisfied with the regimen, and determined to continue. Noteworthy, our population was rather problematic in terms of comorbidities (86%), and resistance to other treatments, with only 28% naïve to systemics, including biologics. Moreover, the observation period includes the Italian outbreak of COVID‐19 epidemic, and further information on apremilast safety are provided, no one of the patients having stopped treatment. In such a critical period, the apremilast satisfactory speed of therapeutic response in a real‐world setting has further strengthens patient’s compliance to remain safely at home, which is the best strategy to limit contagion.

Abstract

Novel coronavirus 2019 (SARS-CoV2) pandemic has particularly affected Italy, with a profound impact on the therapeutic strategy for complex disorder such as psoriasis, whose extensive skin damage might expose to an increased infective risk compared to the general population. Psoriasis treatment relies on immunosuppression, and although most experts agree that the benefit-to risk-ratio is in favor of maintaining selective biologic therapies, and small molecules such as apremilast, they recommend dismission if severe COVID-19 symptoms occur.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Knowledge regarding differences in care for psoriatic patients is limited. The aim of this study was to investigate factors influencing prescription of systemic treatments for patients with psoriasis with a special focus on socioeconomic factors. METHODS AND FINDINGS: This was a non-interventional, cross-sectional study, conducted in 18 Italian University and/or hospital centers with psoriasis-specialized units. Questionnaires evaluating demographic and socioeconomic characteristics were administered to participants. Overall, 1880 consecutive patients affected by mild-to-severe psoriasis were recruited. Univariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses of systemic therapy prescription, with a special focus on biologics, accounting for the above mentioned characteristics were performed. Our analysis showed that all analyzed patients' characteristics were significantly associated with biological therapy compared to non-biological systemic one. Particularly, women were less likely to receive biologics than men (OR = 0.66; 95% CI, 0.57-0.77). Elderly patients (≥65 years) and subjects with a BMI ≥30 had lower odds to receive biologics respect to adults (≥35-64 years) (OR = 0.33; 95% CI, 0.25-0.40), and subjects with BMI≥25

Abstract

Biologic agents have revolutionized the treatment of psoriasis, and the increasing use of these agents in women of childbearing age raises questions regarding pregnancy safety. We report a case of a woman affected with severe psoriasis, who underwent 3 pregnancies whilst exposed to biologic agents. Although immediately dismissed at first pregnancy awareness, first trimester exposure occurred, and the course of the pregnancies were carefully monitored. The patient was under adalimumab treatment during her 1st pregnancy and Ustekinumab at her 2nd and 3rd gestation. She had a premature birth at 35 weeks during the first two pregnancies and at 36 weeks during her last pregnancy. All babies were born healthy without congenital anomalies. Furthermore, due to the rapid worsening of her psoriasis, biologics treatment was reintroduced immediately after breastfeeding in the first 2 occasions, but immediately after delivery in the last pregnancy, with the explicit consent of the patients. There are few data available on biologics treatment safety during pregnancy and breastfeeding, especially regarding ustekinumab. We report our positive experience with the aim of increasing case notifications, facilitate meta-analysis and eventual consensus recommendations regarding the use of biologics in special population.

Abstract

Melanoma occurrence during treatment with anti-tumor necrosis factor is considered an incidental event, although very recent studies suggest a risk. Etanercept is a fusion protein that binds the tumor necrosis factor receptor and is included among TNF inhibitors, approved for the treatment of several autoimmune diseases, such as psoriasis.We described a 79-year-old man with psoriasis, being treated with etanercept, who presented with a new brown to black macule on his right shoulder; this was immediately surgically excised. Histology showed a superficial spreading melanoma, 1.2 mm Breslow thickness, one mitosis/hpf, with no vascular or neural invasion (stage T2b). Sentinel lymph node biopsy was negative. There were no apparent melanoma risk factors: normal total nevus count, photo type IV, no childhood sunburns, no family history of melanoma, and no previous immune suppressive drugs and/or phototherapies. Etanercept 50 mg/week had been administered continuously for 5 years before the melanoma occurrence. After etanercept withdrawal his psoriasis slowly, but progressively relapsed.

Abstract

Background: Despite extraordinary improvements in the management of psoriasis in recent times, some areas of the body, such as the pretibial area, still show an unsatisfactory response and a more significant impact on patient quality of life. This multicentre study focuses on psoriasis affecting sensitive areas (particularly the pretibial area), its impact on quality of life and the therapeutic response to risankizumab., Methods: This multicentre prospective observational study recruited patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis with pretibial area involvement. All patients underwent treatment with risankizumab (150 mg every 3 weeks), and efficacy was assessed after 24 weeks., Results: The study included 128 patients with a mean age of 51 years, suffering from moderate-to-severe psoriasis with involvement of the pretibial area with median total Psoriasis Area Severity Index score of 17.05 and Dermatology Life Quality Index of 16.27. The group was further divided into two sub-groups: the 'mother patch' group, in whom the very first psoriatic plaque appeared in the pretibial region (45 patients), and the 'non-mother patch' group, in whom the psoriatic lesion in the pretibial region was present but not as the first manifestation (83 patients). In order to better assess the involvement of psoriasis in the pretibial area, the pretibial plaque lesion severity index was also calculated at baseline in all patients: extent 2.75, erythema 2.64, infiltration 2.45 and desquamation 2.38. All participants in this study showed a good therapeutic response, with a reduction in all scores., Conclusions: The pretibial area is becoming an object of therapeutic interest due to some resistance to clearance and the consequent impairment of patient quality of life. This study showed that risankizumab can give favourable therapeutic results not only in patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis with involvement of the difficult-to-treat areas but particularly in patients with recalcitrant plaques in the pretibial area., Competing Interests: Disclosure and potential conflicts of interest: The authors declare that they have no conflicts of interest relevant to this manuscript.

Abstract

Background : Psoriatic disease, a chronic immune-mediated systemic inflammatory condition, significantly impairs patients' quality of life. The advent of highly targeted biological therapies has transformed treatment strategies, emphasizing the importance of selecting the most effective and cost-efficient option. Secukinumab, an IL-17A inhibitor, has demonstrated efficacy and safety in treating moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis (PsO). However, long-term real-world data on its effectiveness and persistence rate are limited. Methods : This retrospective study, conducted across eight Italian dermatology centers, aimed to evaluate the 6-year persistence rate and effectiveness of secukinumab in patients with PsO. Additionally, the study investigated the onset of psoriatic arthritis during treatment. Results : Overall, 166 adult patients were analyzed. Their median age was 53.9 years. The mean BMI was 26.5. Of the 166 patients, 64 were bio-experienced while 102 were bio-naïve. A progressive reduction in PsO severity measured by PASI scores over 6 years of treatment was revealed: the PASI score decreased from a baseline value of 18.1 (±9.1) to 0.7 (±1.6) after 6 years of follow-up. Adverse events, including mucocutaneous fungal infections and cardiovascular disturbances, were reported in 19.9% of patients. The persistence rate was 86.8% at 24 months, decreasing to 66.4% at 72 months. Psoriatic arthritis onset during treatment was observed in 15 (9.0%) of patients. Conclusions : This study highlights the sustained effectiveness and favorable safety profile of secukinumab over 6 years, providing valuable real-world evidence. Understanding the long-term persistence rate and predictors of discontinuation could help clinicians optimize treatment decisions and improve patient outcomes in PsO management. We found that the absence of scalp PsO, no involvement of the genital area and normal weight were the best factors of persistence in secukinumab treatment in the long term.

Abstract

Background: Erythrodermic psoriasis (EP) is a potentially life-threatening disease, and there is currently no consensus regarding its optimal treatment. Biological drugs approved for Psoriasis Vulgaris treatment have been used as alternatives to traditional medications., Objective: To evaluate the clinical response and tolerability of anti- interleukin 17 (IL17) biologic drugs during a 2-year-follow-up., Methods: This was a retrospective prospective study. EP cases, defined as >75% body surface area involvement, in patients ≥18 years old treated with anti-IL17 for at least 6 consecutive months were enrolled and then followed until 104 weeks. Patient characteristics, overall clinical responses, Psoriasis Area Severity Index score changes, and adverse events were analyzed., Results: Sixteen patients met the criteria, of which 50% had achieved the Psoriasis Area Severity Index 100 response at week 12 and in 93.7% at week 24. In the prospective observation of the cohort, 87.5% were still in remission at week 52 and 81.25% at 104 weeks, without adverse events. The 3 patients in whom the treatment was interrupted lost efficacy and were switched to other therapies., Limitations: Only descriptive analysis was conducted due to the limited number of patients., Conclusions: A satisfactory long-term clinical response without adverse effects was observed in this case series, suggesting the interest of anti-IL17 in EP treatment., Competing Interests: None disclosed., (© 2024 by the American Academy of Dermatology, Inc.

Abstract

Objective: To assess the potential role of biological treatment for psoriasis (PsO) in reducing the likelihood of psoriatic arthritis (PsA), through a detailed analysis that considered the different historical phases in the PsA management, the different biologics classes, and the different patterns of articular involvement., Methods: A monocentric cohort of 1023 PsO patients underwent a rheumatologic assessment in which clinical and therapeutic data were recorded. Chi-squared test and multivariate logistic regression analysis (adjusted for the main PsA risk factors) were performed to compare the likelihood of PsA development in different treatment groups., Results: The PsA prevalence in PsO patients treated at least once with biologics was significantly lower than in patients never treated with biologics (8.9% vs 26.1%, p< 0.001). In multivariate analysis, a significantly (p< 0.01) lower likelihood of PsA development in biologic-treated patients was confirmed in the whole cohort (adjOR 0.228), as well as in the subgroups of patients with PsO onset after 2005 (adjOR 0.264) and after 2014 (adjOR 0.179). Separately analysing the different biologics classes, both the TNF (adjOR 0.206), IL-17 (adjOR 0.051) and IL-23 or 12/23 (adjOR 0.167) inhibitors were significantly (p< 0.01) associated with a lower likelihood of PsA development. Finally, patients treated with biologics had a significantly (p< 0.04) lower prevalence of both pure peripheral PsA (adjOR 0.182) and peripheral PsA with axial involvement (adjOR 0.115)., Conclusions: This study provides meaningful and concordant evidence supporting the significant role of different classes of biologics in reducing the likelihood of peripheral and axial PsA development., (© The Author(s) 2024.

Abstract

Aiming to identify the potential challenges in the classification of musculoskeletal manifestations in patients with psoriasis (PsO), this study analyzed the outcomes of a cross-sectional rheumatologic assessment of 1057 PsO patients. In total, 209 had a previous diagnosis of psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Out of the remaining 848 subjects, 293 (35%) were classified as suspected PsA cases according to the rheumatologist's judgment and/or Early PsA Screening Questionnaire score (EARP) ≥ 3. However, only 14% received a PsA diagnosis, 49% had a PsA-alternative diagnosis, and the remaining 37% had nonspecific arthralgias. Most of the newly diagnosed PsA patients had a symptoms duration ≥1 year (72%) and moderate disease activity (55%) with active oligoarthritis (85%), dactylitis, or enthesitis (35%) as the most frequent clinical pattern. The most frequent PsA-alternative diagnoses were osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia (44% and 41%). The only factors with significant ( p < 0.05) utility in discriminating PsA from other diseases and nonspecific arthralgias were young age and EARP score with a history of morning stiffness, swollen joints, or dactylitis. These results demonstrated a high prevalence of suspected musculoskeletal symptoms in PsO patients, with, however, only a small proportion due to PsA. Close collaboration between the dermatologist and rheumatologist plays a crucial role in the differential diagnosis of PsA, as well as in monitoring nonspecific arthralgias for the potential transition to overt PsA.

Abstract

Background: Real-world data on guselkumab, especially at times >6 months, are limited., Research Design and Methods: We performed a longitudinal, retrospective analysis on 307 patients with moderate-severe chronic plaque psoriasis (Psoriasis Area Severity Index [PASI] >10) treated with guselkumab for up to 12 months., Main Outcome Measures: PASI 75, PASI 90, and PASI 100 were assessed at baseline and at 4, 12, 20, 28, 36, 44, and 52 weeks., Results: At 12 weeks, PASI 75, PASI 90, and PASI 100 were achieved in 56.4%, 33.6%, and 24.1% of patients, respectively. At 52 weeks, PASI 75, PASI 90, and PASI 100 were achieved in 82.7%, 68.7%, and 51.1% of patients, respectively. Patients without comorbidities and those naïve to previous biological therapy had better responses. The mean Dermatology Life Quality Index score decreased from 14.0 at baseline to 3.1 at 12 weeks and 1.6 at 6 months, which was maintained at later times. Similar improvements were seen in pruritus visual analog scale., Conclusions: Guselkumab maintains its efficacy for up to 12 months among responders in a real-world cohort of patients with moderate-severe plaque psoriasis, confirming data from prior real-world studies with smaller cohorts and shorter duration of follow-up.

Abstract

Introduction: There is limited evidence to guide clinicians on the treatment of psoriasis with biologics in patients with a history of malignancy who are often excluded from clinical trials investigating biologics. The aim of this work is to report a multicenter real-life experience of secukinumab treatment in patients with psoriasis and a personal history of cancer., Methods: This retrospective observational study included adult patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis treated with secukinumab for at least 24 weeks and a previous diagnosis of cancer at 15 Italian referral centers. The primary endpoint of the study was tumor recurrence or progression and new cancer diagnosis during treatment. Secondary outcome assessment of secukinumab effectiveness (reduction of Psoriasis Area and Severity Index [PASI] score, improvement of Dermatology Life Quality Index [DLQI], itch and pain)., Results: Forty-two patients (27 male) were included. Malignancy was diagnosed in the previous 5 years in 21 (56.8%) and in the previous 10 years in 37 (88.1%). The mean interval between cancer diagnosis and the start of secukinumab treatment was 3.5 ± 3.3 years. No tumor recurrence nor progression occurred over a mean of 56 ± 31.7 weeks of treatment. Three patients developed a new malignancy not related to the previous cancer. At week 48, PASI 90 was reached by 64.7% of patients and PASI 100 by 38.2%. Mean DLQI, itch, and pain VAS scores significantly improved during treatment., Conclusions: Our multicenter real-life experience is the largest reported to date focusing on a specific biologic and adds evidence to the safety of secukinumab in psoriatic patients with a personal history of cancer., (© 2022.

Abstract

This open-label multicentre trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of oral dimethyl fumarate (DMF) in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis in real-life clinical practice over 52 weeks. Disease severity and improvement were assessed using the psoriasis area severity index (PASI), body surface area (BSA) affected, and Physician Global Assessment (PGA). Quality of life (QoL) was assessed using the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) questionnaire. The visual analogue scale (VAS) was used to quantify pruritus and measure treatment satisfaction. A total of 141 patients were included, being 66.7% male, aged 49.1 ± 14.7 years and with disease duration of 16 ± 12.1 years. After 52 weeks, mean PASI decreased from 15.9 ± 6.8 to 1.5 ± 2 and 87.7%, 56.9% and 24.6% of patients achieved PASI 75/90/100 response, respectively. BSA decreased from 26.5 ± 14.8% to 2.7 ± 3.5% at 52 weeks, and 81.5% of patients had a PGA 0-1. DLQI scores decreased from 9.4 ± 6.4 to 2.1 ± 3.3, and VAS of pruritus decreased from 53 ± 28.4 to 19.1 ± 26.2 at Week 52. VAS for treatment satisfaction was 79.4 ± 29.4 at Week 52. A total of 34.2% of patients had an AE leading to permanent discontinuation. These findings show that DMF can significantly improve indices of disease severity, pruritus and QoL, with high levels of patient satisfaction and similar safety profile to other fumarates., Competing Interests: The authors declare no conflict of interest.

Abstract

Background: Palmoplantar psoriasis is difficult to treat and often recalcitrant to conventional therapies. Clinical trials have demonstrated the efficacy and safety of secukinumab for this debilitating psoriasis form, but real-life evidence is currently limited. Therefore, here we described the outcomes of patients treated with secukinumab in clinical practice., Research Design and Methods: This was a real-life, retrospective, observational study involving patients with palmoplantar psoriasis treated with secukinumab (300 mg, subcutaneously) at seven dermatologic clinics in Italy. Treatment effectiveness was evaluated based on the changes of the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) and palmoplantar (pp) PASI during treatment and by recording safety and tolerability issues over 104 weeks., Results: Forty-three patients initiated treatment with secukinumab. Previous treatments included topical and systemic therapies; half of patients had already tried one or more biologics. Secukinumab improved mean PASI rapidly and substantially with a 78.2% decrease at 16 weeks. Mean ppPASI also improved substantially, but more gradually, with reductions of 55.0% and 79.3% at 16 and 104 weeks, respectively. Approximately half of patients achieved complete skin clearance at 40 weeks. Secukinumab was well tolerated and no relevant treatment-related adverse events were reported., Conclusions: Secukinumab appears to be effective for the treatment of palmoplantar psoriasis also in the real-life setting.
