Drug Survival, Effectiveness and Safety of Secukinumab in Axial Spondyloarthritis up to 4 Years: A Real-Life Single Center Experience. J Pers Med 2024; 14:417. [PMID: 38673044 PMCID: PMC11051172 DOI: 10.3390/jpm14040417] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2024] [Revised: 03/28/2024] [Accepted: 04/10/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
(1) Objective: The main aims of our study were to explore the drug survival and effectiveness of secukinumab in patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA). (2) Methods: We underwent a retrospective analysis of consecutive axSpA treated with secukinumab as a first line of biologics or at switch in a biologic-experienced population. Efficacy data, indicating improvement in inflammation parameters (such as C-reactive protein and erythrocyte sedimentation rate) and disease activity scores (such as Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score [ASDAS-CRP], Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index [BASDAI]), and patient-reported outcomes (pain), were assessed at 6, 12, 24, 36 and 48 months. The drug survival rate, dropout rate and discontinuation reasons (efficacy versus safety) of secukinumab were assessed in subgroup analysis (axSpA with and without exposure to biologics). (3) Results: In total, 46 patients were exposed to the IL-17A inhibitor secukinumab. The drug survival for axSpA patients 59.7% at 12 months and 31.3% at 24 months. There were no statistically significant differences in the median drug survival between biologic-naïve versus biologic-experienced subgroups. (4) Conclusions: Secukinumab has demonstrated effectiveness and safety in treating a cohort of axSpA patients in real-world settings, with a notable retention rate of the drug.

Weddell J, Din NRA, Harrison SR, Michelena X, McGonagle D, Barr A, Vandevelde C, Freeston J, Marzo-Ortega H. Real-world experience of IL-17Ai drug survival in a large cohort of axial spondyloarthritis and psoriatic arthritis. Rheumatol Adv Pract 2024; 8:rkae018. [PMID: 38435412 PMCID: PMC10907062 DOI: 10.1093/rap/rkae018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2023] [Accepted: 01/29/2024] [Indexed: 03/05/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective The aim was to assess the use and drug survival of IL-17Ai in a real-world cohort of axial SpA (axSpA) and PsA patients. Methods Patients ever commenced on an IL-17Ai (secukinumab or ixekizumab) for axSpA or PsA at the Leeds Specialist Spondyloarthritis Service were identified. Demographics, IL-17Ai treatment length and reason for cessation were collected. Drug survival data were plotted as a Kaplan-Meier curve, with log rank test of median survival compared between axSpA and PsA. Cox regression analysis was performed to investigate the relationship between diagnosis and length of drug survival. Results In total, 228 patients (91 axSpA and 137 PsA) were exposed to IL-17Ai. Drug survival for all patients at 12 months was 69% (95% Confidence Interval (CI) 63, 75%) and at 24 months 60% (95% CI 54, 67%). In axSpA and PsA, drug survival at 12 months was 63% (CI 54, 74%) and 73% (CI 66, 81%), respectively, and at 24 months it was 53% (CI 44, 65%) and 65% (CI 57, 75%), respectively. Median survival did not differ significantly between both diseases (log rank test 0.65). There was no association between diagnosis and survival (hazard ratio 0.92, 95% CI 0.63, 1.33), including when adjusting for age, previous biologic DMARD usage and sex (hazard ratio 0.89, 95% CI 0.61, 1.13). Conclusion This is the first study, to our knowledge, to analyse and compare real-world IL-17Ai drug survival in patients with axSpA and PsA from a single centre. We demonstrate that there is no difference in IL-17Ai survival rates and no relationship between diagnosis and drug survival. These results contribute to the body of real-world evidence confirming the role of IL-17Ai in the management of axSpA and PsA.
