Correction to : Efficacy and Safety of Switching to Ixekizumab in Etanercept Non-Responders: A Subanalysis from Two Phase III Randomized Clinical Trials in Moderate-to-Severe Plaque Psoriasis (UNCOVER-2 and -3)
Altres ajuts: NCT01597245 and NCT01646177 and the post hoc analyses of these studies presented in this manuscript were funded by Eli Lilly and Company.Patients with psoriasis who have an inadequate response to one biologic may benefit from switching to a new biologic, such as ixekizumab, a high affinity monoclonal antibody that selectively targets interleukin (IL)-17A. Our aim was to assess the response to ixekizumab in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis who did not respond adequately to etanercept using a post-hoc analysis in two phase III studies. For the subanalyses in two phase III trials (UNCOVER-2 and -3), non-response was defined by either failure to have a static physician global assessment (sPGA) of 0/1 in UNCOVER-2 or failure to have at least 75% improvement in psoriasis area and severity index (PASI 75) in UNCOVER-3 at Week 12 of each study. Non-responders treated with twice-weekly etanercept 50 mg in the first 12 weeks received two injections of placebo at Week 12 (4-week wash-out period), followed by ixekizumab every 4 weeks (Q4W) for Weeks 16-60. Non-responders to placebo in the first 12 weeks were administered ixekizumab 160 mg at Week 12, followed by ixekizumab Q4W for Weeks 16-60. After switching to ixekizumab Q4W, a substantial proportion of patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis who did not respond to etanercept experienced rapid and durable improvement in all efficacy evaluations. Among sPGA 0/1 (UNCOVER-2) and PASI 75 (UNCOVER-3) non-responders to etanercept, 73.0% achieved sPGA 0/1 and 78.2% achieved PASI 75, respectively, after 12 weeks of ixekizumab treatment. Safety profiles in patients switched from etanercept to ixekizumab were similar to those in patients switched from placebo to ixekizumab. Patients who were non-responders to etanercept after 12 weeks, as defined by failure to meet sPGA 0/1 (UNCOVER-2) or PASI 75 (UNCOVER-3), achieved high levels of response 12 weeks after switching to ixekizumab.

Correlation of mucosal healing endpoints with long-term clinical and patient-reported outcomes in ulcerative colitis
BACKGROUNDWe evaluated the clinical relevance of achieving histologic endoscopic mucosal improvement (HEMI) and the more stringent target of histologic endoscopic mucosal remission (HEMR) in the phase 3 maintenance trial of upadacitinib for moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis. METHODSClinical and patient-reported outcomes were assessed in patients with clinical response after 8- or 16-week upadacitinib induction who received 52-week upadacitinib maintenance treatment. Cross-sectional and predictive analyses evaluated the relationship between HEMR or HEMI at Week 8/16 and Week 52, respectively, and outcomes at Week 52. Adjusted odds ratios (aOR) were derived from logistic regressions for patients achieving HEMR or HEMI without HEMR versus those not achieving HEMI. RESULTSCross-sectional analyses showed that patients with HEMR had greater odds of achieving all clinical and patient-reported outcomes at Week 52 than those not achieving HEMI. In predictive analyses, patients with HEMR at Week 8/16 had significantly greater odds of achieving clinical remission (aOR = 3.6, p = 0.001) and endoscopic remission (aOR = 3.9, p < 0.001) at Week 52 than patients not achieving HEMI and HEMR. For patients achieving HEMI without HEMR, these odds were lower: clinical remission (aOR = 3.2, p < 0.001) and endoscopic remission (aOR = 2.4, p = 0.010). The odds of achieving clinically meaningful improvements in most patient-reported outcomes were directionally similar between HEMI and HEMR, but not statistically different to patients not achieving HEMI. No hospitalizations or surgeries were observed in patients with HEMR at Week 52. CONCLUSIONSAchievement of HEMR or HEMI is clinically relevant with HEMR being associated with greater likelihood of improvement in long-term clinical and patient-reported outcomes. https://www.
