ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The impact of psoriasis on quality of life arises from both physical symptoms, such as pain and pruritus, and the psychosocial effects of the often highly visible lesions. For patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis seeking amelioration of these symptoms, time to onset of treatment response is an important consideration when determining an appropriate therapeutic approach with their healthcare provider.METHODS:
In this review, we discuss the fluidity of the definition of rapid response and time-to-response expectations of patients with psoriasis receiving biologic therapies. Next, we focus on time to response of brodalumab, a human anti–interleukin-17 receptor A monoclonal antibody, in patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis, as measured by the psoriasis area and severity index and the psoriasis symptom inventory. Brodalumab previously exhibited efficacy and safety in treatment of moderate-to-severe psoriasis in three phase 3 trials (AMAGINE-1/-2/-3), warranting further characterization of its ability to meet patient needs regarding rapidity of treatment response. Finally, we place time to response of brodalumab in the context of the current treatment landscape of biologic therapies for psoriasis (particularly those targeting the interleukin-17/interleukin-23 axis).RESULTS:
Direct and indirect comparisons with other interleukin-targeting drugs support brodalumab’s more rapid onset of treatment effects, including skin clearance and relief of itch and pain.CONCLUSION:
Brodalumab induces a rapid treatment response in patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis and may promote earlier improvements in quality of life. J Drugs Dermatol. 2022;21(8)854-860. doi10.36849/JDD.6791.
