RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Data for the effect of metabolic syndrome (MetS) on the efficacy and safety of biologic agents for psoriasis treatment are limited. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate long-term tildrakizumab efficacy, drug survival, and safety in patients with psoriasis by baseline MetS status. METHODS: Post hoc analyses of up to 3 years of efficacy data and 5 years of safety data from the phase 3, double-blind, randomized controlled reSURFACE 1 and 2 trial (NCT01722331 and NCT01729754) base and extension studies were conducted for patients receiving continuous tildrakizumab 100 or 200 mg. RESULTS: Of 338 (n = 124/214 in reSURFACE 1/2) and 307 (n = 147/160 in reSURFACE 1/2) patients continuously receiving tildrakizumab 100 and 200 mg, respectively, throughout the studies, 26/44 (21%/21%) and 34/30 (23%/19%) met MetS criteria. Proportions of patients who achieved a 75% improvement in the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) in reSURFACE 1/2 were generally comparable among those with versus without MetS at week 52 (tildrakizumab 100 mg, 85%/86% vs 86%/94%; tildrakizumab 200 mg, 76%/87% vs 76%/87%) and through week 148. Results were similar for responders with 90% and 100% improvement in the PASI. Tildrakizumab's safety profile did not vary by MetS status. LIMITATIONS: Small sample size and post hoc analysis limit interpretation. CONCLUSION: Long-term tildrakizumab efficacy and safety were comparable between patients with and without MetS.

BACKGROUND: Long-term efficacy, safety, and quality of life with ixekizumab (IXE) through 5 years in UNCOVER-1 and UNCOVER-2 patients with baseline scalp, nail, or palmoplantar psoriasis were assessed. METHODS: Patients included in this intent-to-treat subanalysis had baseline involvement in at least one of the three anatomic areas (scalp, fingernail, or palmoplantar locations) and 1) received IXE through week 60, with a 160-mg starting dose 80 mg Q2W through week 12 and Q4W thereafter, 2) achieved a static Physician’s Global Assessment score of 0 or 1 at week 12, and 3) completed week 60 and continued treatment with IXE Q4W or were escalated to Q2W during the long-term extension. Efficacy outcomes (e.g., percent improvement in Psoriasis Scalp Severity Index [PSSI], Nail Psoriasis Severity Index [NAPSI], Palmoplantar Psoriasis Area and Severity [PPASI], and Dermatology Life Quality Index [DLQI]) were summarized by descriptive statistics through week 264. RESULTS: Patients rapidly achieved and sustained improvements in scalp, nail, and palmoplantar psoriasis for up to 5 years with IXE. Patients achieved complete clearance at year 5: observed (scalp, 82%; nail, 73%; palmoplantar, 96%) and mNRI (scalp, 77%; nail, 67%; palmoplantar, 85%). Up to 80% of patients reported DLQI 0,1 responses at week 12, which were sustained through week 264. No increases in the number of annual treatment-emergent adverse events were observed from years 1–5. CONCLUSION: Patients receiving IXE for 5 years sustained high rates of improvement in scalp, nail, and palmoplantar psoriasis, with a long-term quality of life benefit with no unexpected safety signals.

Psoriasis is a chronic, multisystem, inflammatory disease that affects approximately 1% of children, with onset most common during adolescence. This guideline addresses important clinical questions that arise in psoriasis management and provides evidence-based recommendations. Attention will be given to pediatric patients with psoriasis, recognizing the unique physiology, pharmacokinetics, and patient-parent-provider interactions of patients younger than 18 years old. The topics reviewed here mirror those discussed in the adult guideline sections, excluding those topics that are irrelevant to, or lack sufficient information for, pediatric patients.

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease involving multiple organ systems and affecting approximately 2% of the world's population. In this guideline, we focus the discussion on systemic, nonbiologic medications for the treatment of this disease. We provide detailed discussion of efficacy and safety for the most commonly used medications, including methotrexate, cyclosporine, and acitretin, and provide recommendations to assist prescribers in initiating and managing patients on these treatments. Additionally, we discuss newer therapies, including tofacitinib and apremilast, and briefly touch on a number of other medications, including fumaric acid esters (used outside the United States) and therapies that are no longer widely used for the treatment of psoriasis (ie, hydroxyurea, leflunomide, mycophenolate mofetil, thioguanine, and tacrolimus).

BACKGROUND: Two phase 3 trials (UNCOVER-2 and UNCOVER-3) showed that at 12 weeks of treatment, ixekizumab, a monoclonal antibody against interleukin-17A, was superior to placebo and etanercept in the treatment of moderate-to-severe psoriasis. We report the 60-week data from the UNCOVER-2 and UNCOVER-3 trials, as well as 12-week and 60-week data from a third phase 3 trial, UNCOVER-1. METHODS: We randomly assigned 1296 patients in the UNCOVER-1 trial, 1224 patients in the UNCOVER-2 trial, and 1346 patients in the UNCOVER-3 trial to receive subcutaneous injections of placebo (placebo group), 80 mg of ixekizumab every 2 weeks after a starting dose of 160 mg (2-wk dosing group), or 80 mg of ixekizumab every 4 weeks after a starting dose of 160 mg (4-wk dosing group). Additional cohorts in the UNCOVER-2 and UNCOVER-3 trials were randomly assigned to receive 50 mg of etanercept twice weekly. At week 12 in the UNCOVER-3 trial, the patients entered a long-term extension period during which they received 80 mg of ixekizumab every 4 weeks through week 60; at week 12 in the UNCOVER-1 and UNCOVER-2 trials, the patients who had a response to ixekizumab (defined as a static Physicians Global Assessment [sPGA] score of 0 [clear] or 1 [minimal psoriasis]) were randomly reassigned to receive placebo, 80 mg of ixekizumab every 4 weeks, or 80 mg of ixekizumab every 12 weeks through week 60. Coprimary end points were the percentage of patients who had a score on the sPGA of 0 or 1 and a 75% or greater reduction from baseline in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI 75) at week 12. RESULTS: In the UNCOVER-1 trial, at week 12, the patients had better responses to ixekizumab than to placebo; in the 2-wk dosing group, 81.8% had an sPGA score of 0 or 1 and 89.1% had a PASI 75 response; in the 4-wk dosing group, the respective rates were 76.4% and 82.6%; and in the placebo group, the rates were 3.2% and 3.9% (P<0.001 for all comparisons of ixekizumab with placebo). In the UNCOVER-1 and UNCOVER-2 trials, among the patients who were randomly reassigned at week 12 to receive 80 mg of ixekizumab every 4 weeks, 80 mg of ixekizumab every 12 weeks, or placebo, an sPGA score of 0 or 1 was maintained by 73.8%, 39.0%, and 7.0% of the patients, respectively. Patients in the UNCOVER-3 trial received continuous treatment of ixekizumab from weeks 0 through 60, and at week 60, at least 73% had an sPGA score of 0 or 1 and at least 80% had a PASI 75 response. Adverse events reported during ixekizumab use included neutropenia, candidal infections, and inflammatory bowel disease. CONCLUSIONS: In three phase 3 trials involving patients with psoriasis, ixekizumab was effective through 60 weeks of treatment. As with any treatment, the benefits need to be weighed against the risks of adverse events. The efficacy and safety of ixekizumab beyond 60 weeks of treatment are not yet known.

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease involving multiple organ systems and affecting approximately 3.2% of the world's population. In this section of the guidelines of care for psoriasis, we will focus the discussion on ultraviolet (UV) light-based therapies, which include narrowband and broadband UVB, UVA in conjunction with photosensitizing agents, targeted UVB treatments such as with an excimer laser, and several other modalities and variations of these core phototherapies, including newer applications of pulsed dye lasers, intense pulse light, and light-emitting electrodes. We will provide an in-depth, evidence-based discussion of efficacy and safety for each treatment modality and provide recommendations and guidance for the use of these therapies alone or in conjunction with other topical and/or systemic psoriasis treatments.

BACKGROUND: Certolizumab pegol, the only Fc-free, PEGylated anti-tumor necrosis factor biologic, demonstrated clinically meaningful improvements suggestive of a positive risk-benefit balance in phase 2 studies in adults with moderate-to-severe chronic plaque psoriasis. OBJECTIVE: Assess certolizumab efficacy and safety versus placebo in phase 3 studies. METHODS: Patients with moderate-to-severe chronic plaque psoriasis were randomized 2:2:1 to certolizumab 400 mg, certolizumab 200 mg, or placebo every 2 weeks. At week 16, certolizumab-treated patients achieving a 50% reduction in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index continued treatment through week 48. Coprimary endpoints were week 16 responder rates, defined as a 75% reduction in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index and Physician's Global Assessment 0/1 (clear/almost clear) and ≥2-point improvement. Safety was assessed by treatment-emergent adverse events. RESULTS: Week-16 endpoints were significantly greater for both doses of certolizumab versus placebo, and the responses were maintained through week 48. For most measures, improvement was numerically greater for certolizumab 400 mg. No unexpected safety signals were identified. LIMITATION: There was no active comparator. CONCLUSION: Treatment with either certolizumab 400 mg or 200 mg every 2 weeks was associated with significant and clinically meaningful improvements in moderate-to-severe psoriasis. The 400-mg dose could provide additional clinical benefit. The safety profile was consistent with the therapeutic class.

Updates on managing some of the most common dermatologic conditions for which patients seek care illuminated presentations at the Skin Disease Education Foundation's 42nd Annual Hawaii Dermatology Seminar®. This educational supplement summarizes the highlights of clinical sessions presented during this CME/CE conference. Treatment of psoriasis has continued to advance, with three interleukin (IL)-17 antagonists approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and a fourth in phase 3 trials. An authority on the use of biologics in psoriasis presents current data on the safety and efficacy of these therapies. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors also retain a place in the management of psoriasis, with records of long-term safety. A fourth TNF inhibitor awaits FDA approval for use in psoriasis, offering data on transmission during pregnancy and lactation. An expert on the use of this drug class presents the evidence. Topical therapies remain the cornerstone of care for many patients with psoriasis as well as those with rosacea. Our faculty update readers about new and investigational topical therapies for moderate or severe psoriasis, as well as for acne and rosacea. The current literature on monitoring patients receiving isotretinoin also is summarized. Aesthetic and cosmetic dermatology services form a sizable portion of some practices. Our faculty review data on safety of topical and procedural therapies for cellulite as well as safe injection of facial fillers.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: An urgent need exists in the United States to establish treatment goals in psoriasis. OBJECTIVE: We aim to establish defined treatment targets toward which clinicians and patients with psoriasis can strive to inform treatment decisions, reduce disease burden, and improve outcomes in practice. METHODS: The National Psoriasis Foundation conducted a consensus-building study among psoriasis experts using the Delphi method. The process consisted of: (1) literature review, (2) pre-Delphi question selection and input from general dermatologists and patients, and (3) 4 Delphi rounds. RESULTS: A total of 25 psoriasis experts participated in the Delphi process. The most preferred instrument was body surface area (BSA). The most preferred time for evaluating patient response after starting new therapies was at 3 months. The acceptable response at 3 months postinitiation was either BSA 3% or less or BSA improvement 75% or more from baseline. The target response at 3 months postinitiation was BSA 1% or less. During the maintenance period, evaluation every 6 months was most preferred. The target response at every 6 months maintenance evaluation is BSA 1% or less. LIMITATIONS: Although BSA is feasible in practice, it does not encompass health-related quality of life, costs, and risks of side effects. CONCLUSION: With defined treatment targets, clinicians and patients can regularly evaluate treatment responses and perform benefit-risk assessments of therapeutic options individualized to the patient.

New therapies, recent pathophysiological findings, and updated guidelines combined to create compelling presentations at the Skin Disease Education Foundation's 41st Annual Hawaii Dermatology Seminar™. This educational supplement summarizes the highlights of clinical sessions presented during this CME/CE conference. A growing understanding of the biology of psoriasis has facilitated the development of increasingly efficacious medications. Skin clearance used to be regarded as an impractical goal for psoriasis therapy. Now, some clinical trials of newer medications report more than half of participants attaining Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) scores of 90. Two leading investigators review the latest findings about the treatment of this condition. Recent evidence demonstrates that psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis share multiple pathological underpinnings. A T helper type 17 (Th17) lymphocyte-based pathogenesis, genes, and microbiome changes have been identified in both conditions. Many therapeutics used in psoriasis care are efficacious in psoriatic arthritis. An expert in psoriatic arthritis updates readers about this condition. Cutaneous fungal infections, including onychomycosis, pose diagnostic and treatment challenges. New topical therapies and an investigational oral agent offer expanded options for management. The American Academy of Dermatology has issued new guidelines for the treatment of acne. Appropriate antibiotic use is a prominent theme. The US Food and Drug Administration has issued a communication about the risk of unintentional injection of soft tissue fillers into facial blood vessels-including blindness. The lead author of a recent review about this topic discusses how to prevent this serious outcome. The volume of new information about pathophysiology, diagnosis, therapy, and safety challenges our ability to keep current while enabling us to improve patient care. We hope that the highlights of this seminar offer you information that can be applied to your busy practices.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Secukinumab, a fully human anti-interleukin-17A monoclonal antibody, has demonstrated efficacy and safety in patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. OBJECTIVE: We reviewed safety data from the secukinumab psoriasis phase II/III program. METHODS: Data were pooled from 10 phase II/III secukinumab psoriasis studies. RESULTS: Analysis included 3993 subjects; 3430 received secukinumab, representing 2725 subject-years (SYs) of exposure. Over 52 weeks, for secukinumab 300 mg, 150 mg, and etanercept, respectively, exposure-adjusted incidence rates (IRs) per 100 SYs were comparable across treatments for total adverse events (AEs; 236.1, 239.9, and 243.4, respectively); infections (91.1, 85.3, and 93.7, respectively); serious AEs (7.4, 6.8, and 7.0, respectively); serious infections (1.4, 1.1, and 1.4, respectively); malignant or unspecified tumors (0.77, 0.97, and 0.68, respectively); and adjudicated major adverse cardiovascular events (0.42, 0.35, and 0.34, respectively). AEs were not dose-related except for nonserious, mild/moderate, skin/mucosal candidiasis (IRs 3.55, 1.85, and 1.37 for secukinumab 300 mg, 150 mg, and etanercept, respectively). LIMITATIONS: There was a limited number of patients in comparator groups and the exposure to placebo was short. CONCLUSION: Secukinumab had a favorable safety profile, had no meaningful difference between the 300- and 150-mg doses and, in terms of safety, was comparable to etanercept over 52 weeks in patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.

INTRODUCTION: We evaluated post hoc the relationship between Humira® (adalimumab) therapy and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels in patients with moderate-to-severe hand and/or foot psoriasis from the 16-week placebo-controlled period of REACH.
METHODS: REACH was a phase 4, multicenter, randomized, double-blind trial, evaluating adalimumab treatment for patients with psoriasis of the hands and/or feet. Adults were randomized 2:1 to adalimumab 40 mg every other week (following 80 mg at week 0) or matching placebo from weeks 1 to 16, followed by a 12-week, open-label extension. In this post hoc analysis, changes in hs-CRP were reported as observed from baseline to week 16.
RESULTS: Of the 72 patients (23 placebo, 49 adalimumab) who participated in REACH, 63 (19 placebo, 44 adalimumab) with hs-CRP measurements at baseline and at week 16 were included in this analysis. Baseline median hs-CRP values were 1.6 mg/L (placebo) and 2.2 mg/L (adalimumab), and were 3 times higher for patients with, as compared with those without, psoriatic arthritis (5.45 vs 1.8 mg/L). At week 16, the adalimumab group showed greater improvements (median reduction) from baseline than the placebo group in hs-CRP overall (-0.55 vs +0.10 mg/L), regardless of achievement of PGA of the hands and/or feet (hfPGA) 0 or 1 at week 16 (-0.80 vs 0 mg/L for patients who achieved hfPGA 0/1; -0.40 vs +0.30 mg/L, patients who did not achieve hfPGA 0/1), baseline psoriatic arthritis history (-2.35 mg/L with history [adalimumab group; no history for placebo group]; -0.40 vs +0.10 mg/L without history), and body mass index (BMI) category (defined by median BMI) (-0.80 vs +0.20 mg/L for BMI <30.28 kg/m2; -0.40 vs 0 mg/L for BMI ≥30.28 kg/m2).
CONCLUSION: Treatment with adalimumab 40 mg every other week resulted in greater overall reductions in hs-CRP levels among patients in this post hoc analysis, compared with placebo at 16 weeks regardless of baseline characteristics.
