Outcomes With Treatment and Withdraw of Secukinumab in Patients With Plaque Psoriasis

Rövid összefoglaló (regiszter, angolul)

Psoriasis (PsO) is a systemic immune disease that affect 2-4% of the population worldwide. PsO causes tremendous burden in terms of quality of life, psychological impact, disability and work productivity of affected individuals. PsO is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular morbidities and mortality in the long term. Up to 30% of PsO patients develop psoriatic arthritis (PsA) over time causing joint deformities and further disabilities. Majority of patients with PsA developed PsO first, and arthritis develop 5-10 years after. PsA and PsO are increasingly recognized as two entities under the umbrella of psoriatic diseases. Advances in biological treatments have greatly improved the prognosis of patients with PsO. Remarkable efficacies have been demonstrated for patients with moderate to severe PsO in randomized controlled trials (RCTs). However, the high cost of biological treatment is one of the major barriers to its prescription and many patients may have limited access to these treatments. The best treatment strategy for PsO that takes into account efficacy and cost effectiveness is unknown. For instance, whether some PsO patients can stop biological treatment and be treated with non-biologic medications upon relapse, which may enhance cost effectiveness of treatment. Preliminary studies have shown that some PsO patients were able to maintain good control of disease without medications after biologics withdrawal. The patho-immunological mechanisms behind long term remission after drug withdrawal is poorly understood. Better understanding of these mechanisms in maintaining remission and relapses will advance the development of biomarkers that eventually guide development of best treatment strategies for PsO. Secukinumab targets interleukin (IL)-17a and is highly efficacious in the treatment of plague PsO with a favorable safety profile. Some patients may have the response maintained after withdrawal of secukinumab. With the proven efficacies, sustainability after withdrawal and safety profile, secukinumab could be a choice of initial treatment for patients with moderate to severe PsO. Secukinumab has been recommended as first line treatment for selected patients with moderate to severe PsO by the American Academy of Dermatology and the European S3 guidelines. However, the use of biologics as first line is limited by cost issue. Overall, real-life data on biologic treatment for moderate to severe PsO is scanty.
