Enthesitis in a European registry-based cohort of patients with psoriatic arthritis treated with tumour necrosis factor inhibitors: clinical burden, patient-reported outcomes, and treatment response. Scand J Rheumatol 2024:1-11. [PMID: 38771017 DOI: 10.1080/03009742.2024.2336743] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2023] [Accepted: 03/27/2024] [Indexed: 05/22/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the registration of enthesitis among biologic-naïve patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) initiating tumour necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi) treatment across 12 European registries, compare the disease burden and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) between patients with and without enthesitis, and assess the enthesitis treatment response. METHOD Demographics, clinical characteristics, and PROs at first TNFi (TNFi-1) initiation (baseline) were assessed in patients with PsA, diagnosed by a rheumatologist, with versus without assessment of entheses and between those with versus without enthesitis. Enthesitis scores and resolution frequency were identified at follow-up. RESULTS Of 10 547 patients in the European Spondyloarthritis (EuroSpA) Research Collaboration Network initiating TNFi, 1357 underwent evaluation for enthesitis. Eight registries included a validated scoring system for enthesitis. At baseline, 874 patients underwent entheses assessment [Maastricht Ankylosing Spondylitis Enthesitis Score (MASES) 485 patients, Spondyloarthritis Research Consortium of Canada (SPARCC) 389 patients]. Enthesitis was detected by MASES in 170/485 (35%, mean score ± sd 3.1 ± 2.4) and by SPARCC in 236/389 (61%, 4 ± 3.4). Achilles enthesitis was most frequent, by both MASES (unilateral/bilateral 28%/9%) and SPARCC (48%/18%). MASES/SPARCC baseline and follow-up scores for TNFi-1 were available for 100/105 patients. Of these, 63 patients (63%) (MASES) and 46 (43.8%) (SPARCC) achieved resolution of enthesitis. The site-specific enthesitis resolution was overall lower at SPARCC sites (peripheral; 63-80%) than at MASES sites (mainly axial; 82-100%) following TNFi-1. Disease activity and PROs were worse in patients with versus without enthesitis. CONCLUSION Entheseal assessments are only registered in a minority of patients with PsA in routine care. When assessed, enthesitis was common, and a substantial proportion demonstrated resolution following treatment with TNFi-1.

Multidomain Efficacy and Safety of Guselkumab Through 1 Year in Patients With Active Psoriatic Arthritis With and Without Prior Tumor Necrosis Factor Inhibitor Experience: Analysis of the Phase 3, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled DISCOVER-1 Study. ACR Open Rheumatol 2023; 5:149-164. [PMID: 36762512 PMCID: PMC10010489 DOI: 10.1002/acr2.11523] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2022] [Revised: 11/29/2022] [Accepted: 12/01/2022] [Indexed: 02/11/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate efficacy and safety of the interleukin-23p19-subunit inhibitor, guselkumab, in DISCOVER-1 patients with active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) by prior use of tumor necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi). METHODS The phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled DISCOVER-1 study enrolled patients with active PsA (swollen joint count ≥3, tender joint count ≥3, and C-reactive protein level ≥ 0.3 mg/dl) despite standard therapies; approximately one-third could have received two or fewer prior TNFi. Patients were randomized to 100 mg of guselkumab every 4 weeks (Q4W); 100 mg of guselkumab at week 0, at week 4, and every 8 weeks (Q8W); or placebo with crossover to guselkumab Q4W at week 24. Efficacy end points of ≥20% and ≥50% improvement in individual American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria and achieving the minimal disease activity (MDA) components were summarized by prior TNFi status. RESULTS In DISCOVER-1, 118 (31%) patients previously received one or two TNFi. As previously reported, rates for acheiving ≥20% improvement in the composite ACR response at week 24 and week 52 were similar in TNFi-naive and TNFi-experienced patients randomized to guselkumab Q4W (76% and 68%, respectively) and Q8W (61% and 58%, respectively). Similar trends were observed for response rates of ≥20% and ≥50% improvement in individual ACR criteria and for achieving individual MDA components at week 24; TNFi-naive patients were more likely to achieve end points related to physical function and pain than TNFi-experienced patients. Overall, response rates were maintained or increased through week 52 regardless of prior TNFi use. Through week 60 in guselkumab-treated TNFi-naive and TNFi-experienced patients, 62% and 64%, respectively, reported one or more adverse events (AEs); 4% and 6% had serious AEs, respectively. CONCLUSION Through 1 year, 100 mg of guselkumab Q4W and Q8W provided sustained improvements across multiple domains in both TNFi-naive and TNFi-experienced patients with active PsA.

BMC Rheumatol 2022; 6:49. [PMID: 35974423 PMCID: PMC9382787 DOI: 10.1186/s41927-022-00279-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2021] [Accepted: 03/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Psoriatic arthritis can cause pain, disability, and permanent joint damage. This can lead to impairments in work and social participation. Little is known about the extent of these impairments in routine practice. With this study, we aim to examine the extent of work and activity impairment in (subgroups of) Dutch patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA), and to examine determinants associated with this impairment. METHODS This is an observational study using data collected from the electronic health records of PsA patients treated at the Sint Maartenskliniek, the Netherlands. Data about work and activity impairment were collected via the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment questionnaire. To compare our PsA-cohort with the Dutch general population, we used age- and sex-matched data derived from the Central Bureau of Statistics. Regression analyses were performed to examine determinants of work and activity impairment. RESULTS In total, 246 patients were included, of which 126 (51.2%) were female. Mean age (S.D.) was 55.7 (13.2) years. Compared with the Dutch general population, work for pay (WFP) was significantly lower in PsA (52.9% versus 62.6%, P < 0.001). In PsA, younger age and better physical function were associated with WFP status (P < 0.05). Higher disease activity, worse physical function, and worse mental health-related quality of life were associated with both more work and activity impairment (P < 0.05). Furthermore, reaching low disease activity status (LDA) according to Psoriatic ArthritiS Disease Activity Score (PASDAS; ≤ 3.2) was associated with less work and activity impairment than reaching LDA according to DAS28-CRP (≤ 2.9) (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS In PsA patients, worse physical function was associated with a lower likelihood of having WFP, and higher work and activity impairment. PASDAS LDA as a goal for treat to target, compared to DAS28-CRP, appears to favour the reduction of work and activity impairment.

Semin Arthritis Rheum 2021; 52:151948. [PMID: 35027245 DOI: 10.1016/j.semarthrit.2021.12.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2021] [Revised: 11/22/2021] [Accepted: 12/08/2021] [Indexed: 01/13/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the registration, pattern and burden of clinical enthesitis among routine-care patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) in the Danish nationwide DANBIO registry. METHODS In patients with PsA and axSpA in DANBIO, prospectively registered data from 2010 to 2020 on clinical entheseal assessment using SPARCC score were compared with demographic, clinical and patient-reported-outcome (PRO) data. RESULTS 6582 PsA and 5547 axSpA patients had their first registration in DANBIO in 2010 or later ("incident cohort"). At these registrations, 1037 (16%) PsA and 1188 (21%) axSpA patients had entheseal assessments, with ≥1 enthesitis being found in 66% and 39%, respectively. Mean enthesitis scores were 2.5 (PsA) and 1.3 (axSpA). Most common sites were: Achilles tendon (right/left/symmetrical: PsA:24.4%/23.3%/17.1%; axSpA:10.4%/10.6%/8.0%), lateral epicondyle (PsA:22.2%/20.1%/16.2%; axSpA:.4%/9.7%/7.6%), plantar fascia (PsA:17.1%/17.0%/12.6%; axSpA:10.4%/10.6%/8.0%), greater trochanter (PsA:14.2%/15.4%/11.7%; axSpA:9.9%/11.2%/8.2%). Enthesitis was more frequent in women (PsA/axSpA 61%/62%) than men (39%/37%). Patients with vs without enthesitis had higher overall burden (higher physician global, swollen/tender joint counts, pain, fatigue, patient global; fewer in patient-acceptable-symptom-state (PASS)) (all p < 0.05). Comparable demographic, clinical and PRO-results in patients with missing entheseal assessments, support the data being representative. In an "overall" cohort of all patients with ≥1 entheseal assessments after 2010, results on enthesitis were comparable. CONCLUSION Entheseal assessments were only performed at a minority of clinical visits. Clinical enthesitis was frequent, particularly in women, often symmetrical and associated with a higher physician- and patient-reported disease burden in patients with PsA and axSpA treated in routine practice, emphasizing the need for systematic assessment in routine care.

Efficacy and safety of guselkumab in patients with active psoriatic arthritis who are inadequate responders to tumour necrosis factor inhibitors: results through one year of a phase IIIb, randomised, controlled study (COSMOS). Ann Rheum Dis 2021; 81:359-369. [PMID: 34819273 PMCID: PMC8862038 DOI: 10.1136/annrheumdis-2021-220991] [Citation(s) in RCA: 40] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2021] [Accepted: 10/20/2021] [Indexed: 11/04/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE 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). METHODS 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. RESULTS 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. CONCLUSION 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. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT03796858.
