Title: Spondyloarthritis Including PsA – Treatment Poster I: AxSpA

Session Type: Poster Session A

Session Time: 1:00PM-3:00PM

Background/Purpose: In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the long-term drug survival, efficacy and safety of infliximab biosimilar CT-P13 in Turkish patients diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) in clinical practice. The primary outcome is the assessment of drug retention (ie, time until treatment discontinuation or switching to another biological therapy) and disease activity scores in Turkish patients with AS. Additional results evaluated its efficacy and safety.

Methods: Data were collected from TURKBIO database. CT-P13 efficacy was assessed using standard disease activity parameters, while drug-related serious adverse events (AEs) were recorded.

Results: Between December 2014 and December 2021, 179 patients with AS treated with CT-P13 were enrolled. Of these, 123 (68.7%) were using CT-P13 as first-line therapy. The mean duration of treatment was 3.5 years (Table 1). After 3 years of follow-up, CT-P13 drug survival rates in the general patient population were 58.6% and 48.2% in naive and ≥1 TNFi switch patients, respectively (Table 2 and Graphic 1). While the most common reason for treatment changes was treatment failure, AEs were the other most common reason for discontinuation of treatment. Disease activity decreased significantly compared to baseline after initiation of CT-P13 therapy and remained stable for a long time. In a follow-up of more than 5 years, treatment change was required due to severe allergic reaction in 4 patients (2.2%) and moderate allergic reaction in 5 patients (2.7%). During the treatment, TNFi treatment was completely discontinued because cancer developed in 2 (1.1%) patients, osteomyelitis in 1 (0.5%) and drug-related lupus in 1 (0.5%) (Table 2).

Conclusion: In this real-life data study, CT-P13 therapy achieved promising drug-survival rates with reasonable long-term efficacy and safety in naïve and ≥1 TNFi-refractory Turkish AS patients.

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].
