To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ixekizumab (IXE), an interleukin 17A antagonist, in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) after 52 weeks in a phase III study.
Patients were initially randomly assigned to IXE 80 mg every 2 weeks (IXEQ2W) or every 4 weeks (IXEQ4W) after a 160-mg starting dose, placebo (PBO), or adalimumab (ADA) 40 mg Q2W. At Week 24 (Week 16 for inadequate responders), ADA (8-week washout before starting IXE) and PBO patients were rerandomized to IXEQ2W or IXEQ4W. Six treatment groups were evaluated in the extension period (weeks 24-52): IXEQ2W/IXEQ2W, IXEQ4W/IXEQ4W, ADA/IXEQ2W, ADA/IXEQ4W, PBO/IXEQ2W, and PBO/IXEQ4W. The extension period population (EPP) included patients who received ≥ 1 dose of study medication during the extension period.
There were 381/417 (91.4%) patients who entered the extension period. In the IXEQ4W/IXEQ4W and IXEQ2W/IXEQ2W groups (EPP), respectively, American College of Rheumatology (ACR)20 (69.1% and 68.8%), ACR50 (54.6% and 53.1%), and ACR70 (39.2% and 39.6%) response rates were sustained at Week 52. Patients rerandomized to IXE also demonstrated efficacy measured by ACR response rates at Week 52. A similar pattern was observed for Psoriasis Area and Severity Index outcomes. Radiographic progression in all 6 groups was minimal. The most frequently reported treatment-emergent adverse events (≥ 4%) were nasopharyngitis, injection site reaction, injection site erythema, upper respiratory tract infection, and back pain. No deaths were reported, and serious adverse event frequency was 0-4% with IXE.
During the extension period, IXEQ4W or IXEQ2W treatment demonstrated sustained efficacy in key PsA domains with a safety profile consistent with other studies investigating IXE. Clinical trial number: NCT01695239; EudraCT 2011-002326-49.
评估白细胞介素 17A 拮抗剂依奇珠单抗(IXE)在一项 III 期研究中对银屑病关节炎(PsA)患者的疗效和安全性,随访 52 周。
患者最初随机分为 IXE80mg 每 2 周(IXEQ2W)或每 4 周(IXEQ4W)组、安慰剂(PBO)组或阿达木单抗(ADA)40mg 每 2 周(ADAQ2W)组,给药前给予 160mg 起始剂量。在第 24 周(应答不足患者为第 16 周),ADA(IXE 治疗前 8 周洗脱期)和 PBO 患者重新随机分为 IXEQ2W 或 IXEQ4W 组。在扩展期(第 24-52 周)评估了 6 个治疗组:IXEQ2W/IXEQ2W、IXEQ4W/IXEQ4W、ADA/IXEQ2W、ADA/IXEQ4W、PBO/IXEQ2W 和 PBO/IXEQ4W。扩展期人群(EPP)包括在扩展期接受至少 1 剂研究药物的患者。
共有 417 例患者中的 381 例(91.4%)进入扩展期。在 IXEQ4W/IXEQ4W 和 IXEQ2W/IXEQ2W 组(EPP)中,美国风湿病学会(ACR)20 应答率分别为 69.1%和 68.8%、ACR50 应答率分别为 54.6%和 53.1%、ACR70 应答率分别为 39.2%和 39.6%,在第 52 周时均保持持续应答。重新随机分配至 IXE 的患者在第 52 周时也表现出 ACR 应答率的疗效。在所有 6 个组中,均观察到类似的 PsA 面积和严重程度指数结果模式。所有 6 个组的放射学进展均较小。最常见的治疗后不良事件(发生率≥4%)为鼻咽炎、注射部位反应、注射部位红斑、上呼吸道感染和背痛。未报告死亡事件,IXE 的严重不良事件发生率为 0-4%。
在扩展期内,IXEQ4W 或 IXEQ2W 治疗在关键的 PsA 领域中表现出持续的疗效,安全性与其他研究 IXE 的研究一致。临床试验编号:NCT01695239;EudraCT 编号:2011-002326-49。
