Title: Spondyloarthritis Including Psoriatic Arthritis – Clinical Poster III: Treatment

Session Type: ACR Poster Session C

Session Time: 9:00AM-11:00AM

<>Background/Purpose:

Improving health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is a key goal of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) therapy. Secukinumab, a fully-human IL-17A inhibitor, has been shown to rapidly and sustainably improve multiple clinical domains of PsA. This comprehensive pooled analysis assessed the impact of secukinumab on HRQoL, assessed by the Short Form-36 Health Survey (SF-36), in TNF inhibitor (TNF)-naïve and TNF inhibitor inadequate responder/intolerant (TNF-IR) patients (pts) with PsA in FUTURE 2, 3, 4 and 5 (NCT01752634; NCT01989468; NCT02294227; NCT02404350). <>Methods:

Pts with active PsA, stratified by TNF status, were randomized to subcutaneous placebo (PBO) or secukinumab 75 mg (FUTURE 2), 150 mg (FUTURE 2, 3, 4, 5), 150 mg no load (FUTURE 4, 5) or 300 mg (FUTURE 2, 3, 5) administered at baseline (BL) and Wks 1, 2, 3 and 4, followed by every 4 wks (or every 4 wks from BL in no load arms). At Wk 16 or 24, pts on PBO were re-randomized to secukinumab. Mixed-model for repeated measures was used to assess change in SF-36 from BL to Wk 16; observed data are presented at Wk 52. The proportion of pts reporting improvements meeting or exceeding the minimal clinically important differences for SF-36 physical (PCS responders), mental component summary (MCS responders) and individual SF-36 domains was assessed. Non-responder imputation was used, and the proportion of SF-36 responders was compared using Fisher’s exact test. Pooled data for pts receiving licensed doses of secukinumab (300 or 150 mg) or PBO are shown. <>Results:

Of 2049 pts overall, 461, 572, 335 and 681 were in the secukinumab 300 mg, 150 mg, 150 mg (no load) and PBO groups, respectively, of whom approx. 30% were TNF-IR. Least squares mean changes from BL in PCS and MCS at Wk 16 were significantly improved vs PBO for all secukinumab doses, overall and in both TNF-naïve and TNF-IR pts (Table 1). All individual domain scores were also significantly improved with secukinumab vs PBO, except role-emotional in TNF-IR pts with secukinumab 150 mg. There was a significantly higher proportion of SF-36 responders (PCS, MCS and individual domains) in the secukinumab groups at Wk 16 vs PBO in the overall sample (Table 2), except for role-emotional with secukinumab 150 mg. There were consistent trends for higher SF-36 response rates with secukinumab vs PBO regardless of TNF status, with higher SF-36 response rates in TNF-naïve pts. Improvements in PCS, MCS, individual domain scores and response rates were sustained to Wk 52. <>Conclusion:

Secukinumab 300 mg and 150 mg offered significant and sustained improvements in HRQoL (SF-36) up to 52 wks in pts with PsA, regardless of TNF status.
