To evaluate efficacy and safety of guselkumab, an anti-interleukin-23p19-subunit antibody, in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) with prior inadequate response (IR) to tumour necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi).
Adults with active PsA (≥3 swollen and ≥3 tender joints) who discontinued ≤2 TNFi due to IR (lack of efficacy or intolerance) were randomised (2:1) to subcutaneous guselkumab 100 mg or placebo at week 0, week 4, then every 8 weeks (Q8W) through week 44. Patients receiving placebo crossed over to guselkumab at week 24. The primary (ACR20) and key secondary (change in HAQ-DI, ACR50, change in SF-36 PCS and PASI100) endpoints, at week 24, underwent fixed-sequence testing (two-sided α=0.05). Adverse events (AEs) were assessed through week 56.
Among 285 participants (female (52%), one (88%) or two (12%) prior TNFi), 88% of 189 guselkumab and 86% of 96 placebo→guselkumab patients completed study agent through week 44. A statistically significantly higher proportion of patients receiving guselkumab (44.4%) than placebo (19.8%) achieved ACR20 (%difference (95% CI): 24.6 (14.1 to 35.2); multiplicity-adjusted p<0.001) at week 24. Guselkumab was superior to placebo for each key secondary endpoint (multiplicity-adjusted p<0.01). ACR20 response (non-responder imputation) in the guselkumab group was 58% at week 48; >80% of week 24 responders maintained response at week 48. Through week 24, serious AEs/serious infections occurred in 3.7%/0.5% of 189 guselkumab-randomised and 3.1%/0% of 96 placebo-randomised patients; the guselkumab safety profile was similar through week 56, with no deaths or opportunistic infections.
Guselkumab significantly improved joint and skin manifestations and physical function in patients with TNFi-IR PsA. A favourable benefit-risk profile was demonstrated through 1 year.

评估 Guselkumab(一种抗白细胞介素-23p19 亚单位抗体)在先前对肿瘤坏死因子抑制剂(TNFi)反应不足(IR)的银屑病关节炎(PsA)患者中的疗效和安全性。
患有活动性 PsA(≥3 个肿胀关节和≥3 个压痛关节)的成年人因 IR(缺乏疗效或不耐受)而停止使用≤2 种 TNFi,随机(2:1)接受皮下 Guselkumab 100mg 或安慰剂,在第 0 周、第 4 周,然后每 8 周(Q8W)至第 44 周。接受安慰剂的患者在第 24 周交叉至 Guselkumab。第 24 周主要(ACR20)和关键次要(HAQ-DI 变化、ACR50、SF-36 PCS 和 PASI100 变化)终点进行固定序列检验(双侧 α=0.05)。通过第 56 周评估不良事件(AE)。
在 285 名参与者(女性(52%),一种(88%)或两种(12%)先前的 TNFi)中,189 名 Guselkumab 治疗和 96 名安慰剂→Guselkumab 治疗的患者中,分别有 88%和 86%的患者通过第 44 周完成了研究药物治疗。接受 Guselkumab 的患者比例(44.4%)显著高于接受安慰剂的患者(19.8%),达到 ACR20(%差异(95%CI):24.6(14.1 至 35.2);多重调整后 p<0.001)在第 24 周。与安慰剂相比,Guselkumab 在每个关键次要终点均有优势(多重调整后 p<0.01)。第 48 周时,Guselkumab 组的 ACR20 应答(无应答者推断)为 58%;在第 24 周有应答的患者中,>80%在第 48 周时仍有应答。在第 24 周时,189 名 Guselkumab 随机分组患者中有 3.7%发生严重不良事件/严重感染,96 名安慰剂随机分组患者中分别有 0.5%和 0%;通过第 24 周,Guselkumab 的安全性与安慰剂相似,没有死亡或机会性感染。
Guselkumab 显著改善了 TNFi-IR PsA 患者的关节和皮肤表现以及身体功能。通过 1 年的研究,证实了其有利的风险效益比。
