ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Tapinarof cream 1% once daily demonstrated significant efficacy versus vehicle and was well tolerated in two 12-week, phase 3 pivotal trials in adults with mild-to-severe plaque psoriasis.OBJECTIVE:
To assess long-term, health-related quality of life and patient satisfaction with tapinarof.METHODS:
Patients completing the 12-week trials were eligible for 40 weeks of open-label tapinarof based on Physician Global Assessment score in PSOARING 3, with a 4-week follow-up. Dermatology Life Quality Index was assessed at every visit; Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire responses were assessed at week 40 or early termination.RESULTS:
Seven hundred sixty-three (91.6%) eligible patients enrolled; 78.5% completed the Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire. DLQI scores improved and were maintained. By week 40, 68.0% of patients had a DLQI of 0 or 1, indicating no impact of psoriasis on health-related quality of life. Most patients strongly agreed or agreed with all Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire questions assessing confidence in tapinarof and satisfaction with efficacy (62.9%-85.8%), application ease and cosmetic elegance (79.9%-96.3%), and preference for tapinarof versus prior psoriasis therapies (55.3%-81.7%).LIMITATIONS:
Open-label; no control; may not be generalizable to all forms of psoriasis.CONCLUSIONS:
Continued and durable improvements in health-related quality of life, high rates of patient satisfaction, and positive perceptions of tapinarof cream were demonstrated.
