RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Epithelial surface disruption in genital psoriatic lesions may manifest as erosions, fissures and/or ulcers, causing pain and significantly impacting a patient's sexual health. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the impact of erosions, fissures and/or ulcers in genital psoriatic lesions on pain and sexual activity in patients with moderate-to-severe genital psoriasis (GenPs) and treatment responses to ixekizumab vs. placebo until Week 12. METHODS: This post hoc subgroup analysis of patients presenting with and without erosions, fissures and/or ulcers in genital lesions from a phase IIIb multicentre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study (IXORA-Q; NCT02718898) in 149 adults with moderate-to-severe GenPs treated with subcutaneous ixekizumab (80 mg every 2 weeks; n = 75) or placebo (n = 74) evaluated outcomes for clinician-rated GenPs severity (static Physician's Global Assessment of Genitalia; sPGA-G) and patient-reported genital pain and itch (Genital Psoriasis Symptoms Scale; GPSS) and sexual health (Genital Psoriasis Sexual Frequency Questionnaire; GenPs-SFQ). RESULTS: At baseline, 38% (n = 57) of patients presented with genital erosions, fissures and/or ulcers independent of overall body surface area involvement (<10% or ≥10%). These signs were associated with higher scores for disease severity (sPGA-G) and pain (GPSS) but not sexual health (GenPs-SFQ). Complete resolution of these signs was observed in 62% of ixekizumab-treated patients (25% for placebo) at Week 1 and 83% (21% for placebo) at Week 12. Patients treated with ixekizumab reported significant improvements in pain, itch, disease severity and sexual health over 12 weeks compared to placebo and irrespective of the presence/absence of genital erosions, fissures and/or ulcers at baseline. CONCLUSION: Ixekizumab led to rapid and sustained resolution of erosions, fissures and/or ulcers and significant improvements in GenPs severity, genital pain and sexual health. Ixekizumab may help to improve the well-being of patients with GenPs.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Genital psoriasis (GenPs) is a common, debilitating and difficult-to-treat manifestation of plaque psoriasis. However, few controlled, interventional studies of GenPs exist. OBJECTIVES: To determine the efficacy of ixekizumab vs. placebo in patients with moderate-to-severe GenPs with ≥ 1% involved body surface area (BSA). METHODS: Patients with moderate-to-severe GenPs, defined as a baseline static Physician's Global Assessment of Genitalia (sPGA-G) score of ≥ 3, with BSA ≥ 1% were randomized 1 : 1 to receive placebo (n = 74) or the recommended dosing of ixekizumab (n = 75). Major outcomes included the percentage of patients achieving 0 or 1 scores on the sPGA-G (primary end point), overall sPGA, GenPs Sexual Frequency Questionnaire (GenPs-SFQ) item 2, and ≥ 3-point improvement from baseline on the GenPs itch numerical rating scale. RESULTS: At week 12, ixekizumab was superior to placebo for sPGA-G 0/1 (73% vs. 8%, P < 0·001), overall sPGA 0/1 (73% vs. 3%, P < 0·001), GenPs-SFQ item 2 score of 0 or 1 (78% vs. 21%, P < 0·001) and genital itch (60% vs. 8%, P < 0·001). No candidiasis was reported, no deaths occurred and one (1%) serious adverse event was reported in a patient receiving placebo. CONCLUSIONS: Ixekizumab was superior to placebo for the treatment of moderate-to-severe GenPs with BSA ≥ 1%. The safety profile of ixekizumab was consistent with previous studies in moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Facial psoriasis was reported in 17-68% of patients with psoriasis and shown to have a negative impact on patients' personal and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). OBJECTIVES: To explore the association of facial psoriasis with patients' HRQoL and to assess the relationship between ixekizumab (IXE) and improvement in facial psoriasis and changes in HRQoL. METHODS: This work reports the combined results of two phase III multicentre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, active-comparator trials in patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis. Patients received placebo, etanercept (ETN; 50 mg twice weekly) or IXE [80 mg every 4 weeks (Q4W) or every 2 weeks (Q2W)] for up to 12 weeks following an initial 160-mg dose. HRQoL parameters were analysed based on facial psoriasis status at baseline using analysis of covariance models. Improvement was assessed as percentage of patients with no facial psoriasis. RESULTS: The combined database included 1133 patients with facial psoriasis and 1437 without. Patients treated with IXE whose facial psoriasis cleared had improved Dermatology Life Quality Index 0.1 responses (P < 0.01) compared with patients with facial psoriasis at Week 12. At Week 12, clearance of facial psoriasis compared with the presence of facial psoriasis was independently associated with significantly better improvement in Psoriasis Skin Appearance Bothersomeness scores in the IXE Q2W treatment group (P < 0.01). At Week 12, facial clearance and overall Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) improvement were observed in significant numbers of patients treated with IXE compared with ETN and placebo. Facial psoriasis clearance at Week 12 in patients treated with IXE or ETN was positively associated with PASI75 and PASI90 achievement. CONCLUSION: Facial psoriasis had a larger negative impact on HRQoL than no facial psoriasis. Facial psoriasis clearance was associated with improved HRQoL. Significantly more IXE-treated patients had rapid facial clearance vs. ETN and PBO, which led to better clinical outcomes.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Psoriasis symptoms may decrease quality of life for patients. Skin-related personal relationship difficulties in psoriasis patients are common, under-reported and poorly understood. OBJECTIVE: To assess the effect of ixekizumab (IXE) treatment on skin-related personal relationship difficulties in patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis. METHODS: Pooled data (N = 2570) on skin-related relationship problems were obtained from two large phase 3 trials (UNCOVER-2 and UNCOVER-3) in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis randomized to subcutaneous placebo (PBO, N = 361), etanercept (ETN; 50 mg twice weekly, N = 740), or 80 mg IXE as one injection every 4 (IXEQ4W, N = 733) or 2 weeks (IXEQ2W, N = 736) for 12 weeks, following a 160-mg initial dose. The Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) Personal Relationships Domain (PRD) (Items 8 and 9) was used to assess how much the skin caused any personal relationship difficulties at weeks 0, 2, 4 and 12. Improvement was compared for IXE vs PBO and ETN using logistic models. Factors associated with improvement were assessed using multiple linear regressions. DLQI Item 9, assessing sexual difficulties, was also analysed separately. RESULTS: PRD scores (mean ± standard deviation) at baseline were similar across all treatment groups (PBO: 1.8 ± 1.9; ETN: 1.7 ± 1.8; IXEQ4W: 1.6 ± 1.8; IXEQ2W: 1.7 ± 1.8). Treatment with IXE rapidly and significantly improved the mean PRD score compared to PBO and ETN (P < 0.001 at all time points). Baseline PRD score was the strongest negative predictor of improvement. IXE enabled significantly more patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis to reduce their skin-related sexual difficulties at Week 12 compared to PBO (P < 0.001) or ETN (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Ixekizumab improves patient-reported skin-related PRD difficulties in patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis.
