ABSTRACT
Since the original publication of the article "Development of the IL-12/23 antagonist ustekinumab in psoriasis Past, present and future perspectives" in March 2011 (see Appendix),(1) there have been several new publications and developments of note. A number of new reports from the ustekinumab psoriasis clinical development program have been published. The analysis of efficacy and safety in the PHOENIX 1 long-term extension demonstrated that continuous stable maintenance dosing of ustekinumab was generally well tolerated and sustained durable efficacy through up to three years of treatment.(2) Pooled safety data from the phase 2 and phase 3 global trials showed that the safety profile of long-term continuous ustekinumab treatment through up to three years(3,4) and four years(5) of follow-up was favorable and comparable to what has been reported previously in the shorter-term ustekinumab psoriasis studies.(6-8) This represents the greatest exposure and longest follow-up of psoriasis patients treated with a biologic published to date. Additional phase 3 trials in Asian populations demonstrated similar high levels of efficacy and favorable safety profiles in Japanese,(9,10) Korean,(11,12) and Taiwanese(11,12) patients as those observed in trials conducted in mostly White populations in North America and Europe.(6-8) These data support the positive benefitrisk profile and consistency of response to ustekinumab over years of usage, and in multiple ethnic groups. Results from up to five years of treatment with ustekinumab in the long-term extensions of the phase 3 trials, and the efficacy, safety, and effect on quality of life in Chinese patients will be available in 2012. In addition to clinical trials of ustekinumab for the treatment of psoriasis, 24-week data from one phase 3 study of ustekinumab for the treatment of psoriatic arthritis has recently been presented(13) and another study is ongoing. A Phase 2b trial in Crohn's disease has also been presented,(14) and three phase 3 studies in Crohn's disease are currently in progress.
