RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the short-term effectiveness of guselkumab in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and suggestive features of axial involvement in a prospective "real-life" multicentre cohort. METHODS: Between June 2022 and June 2023, PsA patients with axial involvement were evaluated if treated at least for 4 months with guselkumab. The effectiveness was evaluated by BASDAI, ASDAS, DAPSA, and achievement of BASDAI ≤ 4, also exploiting predictive factors. In a group of patients, MRI findings on sacroiliac joints were assessed before and after guselkumab administration. RESULTS: Sixty-seven patients with PsA and suggestive features of axial involvement (age 53.4 ± 11.2 years, male sex 26.9%) were treated with guselkumab. After 4 months, a significant reduction of BASDAI, ASDAS, and DAPSA was observed. A ΔBASDAI of -2.11 ± 0.43 was estimated assessing the mean difference values before and after guselkumab administration and 52.2% of patients reached a BASDAI ≤ 4. In 27 patients, MRI findings on sacroiliac joints were assessed before and after guselkumab administration. A reduction of 0.80 or larger of the sacroiliac joint lesion score was observed in the majority of patients (70.3%) based on MRI improvements, paralleling with the clinical response.No life-threatening side effects were recorded; 17.9% of patients reported minor adverse events mainly injection site reactions. CONCLUSIONS: The short-term effectiveness of guselkumab in patients with PsA and suggestive features of axial involvement was shown. Although further studies are needed, our multicentre "real-life" study may suggest the clinical usability of guselkumab in this context.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: We aimed to evaluate the drug retention rate (DRR) of secukinumab, an anti-IL-17A monoclonal antibody, in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) in a real-life cohort, and to assess the impact of comorbidities and patient clinical characteristics on the DRR of secukinumab. METHODS: A retrospective study of prospective followed-up patients was performed to evaluate the DRR of secukinumab on patients with PsA attending the recruiting centres between January 2016 and June 2022. RESULTS: In 207 patients with PsA, a 60-month DRR of secukinumab of 57.0% was estimated (mean time of administration of 21.5±17.1 months). Male gender, age ≥65 years, disease duration ≥5 years and ≥10 years did not influence the DRR of secukinumab. The presence of comorbidities, considering any concomitant disorder, did not affect the DRR of secukinumab. In patients with cardiometabolic multimorbidity, a trend toward a better DRR of secukinumab was recorded. In fact, patients with high blood pressure, dyslipidaemia, and type 2 diabetes showed a trend toward an improved DRR of secukinumab. Furthermore, the presence of obesity did not influence the DRR of secukinumab. Different dosages, previous bDMARDs, and concomitant therapy with csDMARDs did not influence the DRR of secukinumab. CONCLUSIONS: A cumulative 60-month DRR of secukinumab of 57.0% in patients with PsA was retrieved. The presence of cardiometabolic multimorbidity could be associated with an improved DRR of secukinumab, whereas obesity did not affect this feature in our cohort. Previous bDMARDs, concomitant csDMARDs, and different drug dosages could not influence the DRR of secukinumab over time.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: Guselkumab is an interleukin-23 (IL-23) inhibitor licensed for the treatment of psoriatic arthritis (PsA). This study aimed to evaluate the 6-month effectiveness of guselkumab in patients with PsA in a "real-life" multicentre patient cohort. We also estimated the drug retention rate (DRR) of gusulkumab, also assessing the impact of comorbidities and patient clinical characteristics, in a collective 18-month prospective follow-up. METHODS: Between December 2021 and September 2023, consecutive patients with PsA were evaluated if treated at least for 6 months with guselkumab in a prospective multicentre study to evaluate the effectiveness of the drug by means of disease activity index for psoriatic arthritis (DAPSA) and cumulative DRR. RESULTS: A total of 111 patients with PsA were evaluated and treated with guselkumab (age 56.8 ± 9.9, male sex 20.7%). These patients were mainly characterised by active and long-standing PsA with median disease duration of 6.0 (7.0) years (55.9% disease duration ≥ 5 years), 55.0% showed comorbidities, 78.4% of patients were previously treated with biologic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (bDMARDs), and 60.4% concomitantly with conventional synthetic DMARDs (csDMARDs). After 6 months, a significant reduction of DAPSA was observed (ß - 15.47, p = 0.001, 95% CI - 23.15 to - 9.79) with 39.6% of patients achieving a DAPSA ≤ 14. At the end of cumulative follow-up, 71.2% of patients were still treated with guselkumab whereas 24.3% discontinued the drug because of inefficacy. An 18-month DRR of guselkumab of 66.7% was estimated with a mean time of administration of 9.8 ± 4.1 months. The results of the DRR were stratified according to patient clinical characteristics. The DRR of guselkumab appeared to be not influenced by long disease duration, comorbidities, obesity, concomitant csDMARDs, and previous bDMARDs. CONCLUSION: The "real-life" 6-month effectiveness of guselkumab was shown in patients with PsA, mainly characterised by active long-standing disease, previously treated with bDMARDs, and with comorbidities. Furthermore, a good DRR of guselkumab was estimated in the cumulative 18 months of follow-up and appeared to be not influenced by long disease duration, comorbidities, obesity, and previous bDMARDs.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: The clinical relevance of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) subtypes such as HLA-B51 on Behçet's disease (BD)-related uveitis and non-infectious uveitis (NIU) unrelated to BD remains largely unknown. METHODS: Data were prospectively collected from the International AIDA Network Registry for BD and for NIU. We assessed differences between groups (NIU unrelated to BD and positive for HLA-B51, BD-related uveitis positive for HLA-B51 and BD-related uveitis negative for HLA-B51) in terms of long-term ocular complications, visual acuity (VA) measured by best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), anatomical pattern, occurrence of retinal vasculitis (RV) and macular edema over time. RESULTS: Records of 213 patients (341 eyes) were analyzed. No differences in complications were observed (p = 0.465). With regard to VA, a significant difference was detected in median BCVA (p = 0.046), which was not maintained after Bonferroni correction (p = 0.060). RV was significantly more prevalent in NIU-affected patients who tested positive for HLA-B51, irrespective of the systemic diagnosis of BD (p = 0.025). No differences emerged in the occurrence of macular edema (p = 0.99). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with NIU testing positive for HLA-B51 exhibit an increased likelihood of RV throughout disease course, irrespective of a systemic diagnosis of BD. The rate of complications as well as VA are comparable between NIU cases unrelated to BD testing positive for HLA-B51 and uveitis associated with BD. Therefore, it is advisable to perform the HLA-B typing in patients with NIU or retinal vasculitis, even in the absence of typical BD features.
