Title: Miscellaneous Rheumatic & Inflammatory Diseases Poster II

Session Type: Poster Session B

Session Time: 10:30AM-12:30PM

Background/Purpose: Deucravacitinib, an oral, selective, allosteric tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) inhibitor, is approved in the US, EU, and other countries for treatment of adults with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.

Methods: Adults with moderate to severe scalp psoriasis (Scalp-Specific Physician Global Assessment [ss-PGA] ≥ 3, scalp surface area ≥ 20%, Psoriasis Scalp Severity Index [PSSI] ≥ 12, and body surface area [BSA] ≥ 3%) were randomized 1:2 to placebo or deucravacitinib 6 mg once daily. The primary efficacy outcome was ss-PGA 0/1 at week 16; key secondary outcomes were a ≥ 90% improvement from baseline in PSSI (PSSI 90), change from baseline (CFB) in scalp-specific itch, and static Physician Global Assessment (sPGA) 0/1 at week 16. Efficacy outcomes were evaluated for the overall population and the subpopulation with global sPGA ≥ 3.

Results: 154 patients were randomized (placebo, n = 51; deucravacitinib, n = 103). Baseline characteristics were similar in each group (placebo: Psoriasis Area and Severity Index [PASI] 9.4, PSSI 32.2, BSA 10.0%; deucravacitinib: PASI 10.2, PSSI 33.5, BSA 10.5%). In the overall population, deucravacitinib was superior to placebo with statistical significance achieved for all primary and secondary efficacy outcomes at week 16: ss-PGA 0/1 (48.5% vs 13.7%; P < 0.0001), PSSI 90 (38.8% vs 2.0%; P < 0.0001), and mean CFB in scalp-specific itch (−3.2 vs −0.7; P < 0.0001). In patients with sPGA ≥ 3, a greater proportion achieved sPGA 0/1 with deucravacitinib vs placebo (51.0% vs 4.3%; P < 0.0001). The most common adverse events with deucravacitinib were nasopharyngitis (14.6%), upper respiratory tract infection (11.7%), acne (9.7%), headache (7.8%), COVID-19 (5.8%), and pustular acne (5.8%). Two serious adverse events occurred (atrial fibrillation and meniscus injury; neither was treatment related or led to discontinuation).

Conclusion: Deucravacitinib was efficacious and well tolerated in patients with moderate to severe scalp psoriasis, including those with less extensive overall psoriasis. These findings are consistent with the POETYK trials and support the use of deucravacitinib in scalp psoriasis.

All abstracts accepted to ACR Convergence are under media embargo once the ACR has notified presenters of their abstract’s acceptance. They may be presented at other meetings or published as manuscripts after this time but should not be discussed in non-scholarly venues or outlets. The following embargo policies are strictly enforced by the ACR.

Accepted abstracts are made available to the public online in advance of the meeting and are published in a special online supplement of our scientific journal, Arthritis & Rheumatology. Information contained in those abstracts may not be released until the abstracts appear online. In an exception to the media embargo, academic institutions, private organizations, and companies with products whose value may be influenced by information contained in an abstract may issue a press release to coincide with the availability of an ACR abstract on the ACR website. However, the ACR continues to require that information that goes beyond that contained in the abstract (e.g., discussion of the abstract done as part of editorial news coverage) is under media embargo until 10:00 AM ET on November 14, 2024. Journalists with access to embargoed information cannot release articles or editorial news coverage before this time. Editorial news coverage is considered original articles/videos developed by employed journalists to report facts, commentary, and subject matter expert quotes in a narrative form using a variety of sources (e.g., research, announcements, press releases, events, etc.).

Violation of this policy may result in the abstract being withdrawn from the meeting and other measures deemed appropriate. Authors are responsible for notifying colleagues, institutions, communications firms, and all other stakeholders related to the development or promotion of the abstract about this policy. If you have questions about the ACR abstract embargo policy, please contact ACR abstracts staff at [email protected].
