Trial Outcomes & Findings for Secukinumab in Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) - Inadequate Response (IR) Psoriasis Participants. (NCT NCT01961609)

NCT ID: NCT01961609

Last Updated: 2019-03-18

Results Overview

PASI is a combined assessment of lesion severity and affected area into a single score: 0 (no disease) to 72 (maximal disease). Body is divided into 4 areas for scoring (head, arms, trunk, legs); each area is scored by itself and scores are combined for final PASI. For each area, percent of skin involved is estimated: 0 (0%) to 6 (90-100%), and severity is estimated by clinical signs, erythema, induration and desquamation; scale 0 (none) to 4 (maximum). Final PASI = sum of severity parameters for each area\* area score weight of section (head: 0.1, arms: 0.2 body: 0.3 legs: 0.4). PASI 75 is defined as participants achieving ≥ 75% improvement from baseline.

Participant Flow

This study consisted of 3 periods: initiation, maintenance 1 and maintenance 2. During the initiation period, participants received secukinumab 150 mg or 300 mg for 16 weeks.

For both maintenance periods 1 and 2, after 16 weeks and 48 weeks, respectively, responders at both the 150 mg and 300 mg doses continued on their initiation doses during maintenance periods 1 and 2. Non-responders at 150 mg were uptitrated to 300 mg. Non-responders at 300 mg returned to routine treatment under the care of their usual clinician.

Measure
Secukinumab (AIN457) 300 mg
Participants self-administered 300 mg secukinumab loading dose subcutaneously at Day 0 (initiation of study drug) and at weeks 1, 2, 3 \& 4, and then every 4 weeks. Following the Primary Endpoint at 16 weeks, participants meeting the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) criteria of adequate response were eligible to continue on study treatment for a further 32 weeks. Participants not meeting this NICE criterion returned to routine treatment under the care of their usual Clinical Team. Following assessment at week 48, participants meeting the NICE criteria of adequate response were eligible to continue on study treatment for a further 24 weeks. Participants not meeting this NICE criterion returned to routine treatment under the care of their usual Clinical Team.
Secukinumab (AIN457) 150 mg
Participants self-administered secukinumab 150 mg loading dose subcutaneously at Day 0 (initiation of study drug), weeks 1, 2, 3 \& 4 and then every 4 weeks. Following the Primary Endpoint at 16 weeks, participants meeting the NICE criteria of adequate response were eligible to continue on study treatment for a further 32 weeks at the 150mg dose. Participants not achieving the NICE criteria at the Primary Endpoint were up titrated to 300mg at the discretion of the treating physician. Following assessment at week 48, participants meeting the NICE criteria of adequate response were eligible to continue on study treatment for a further 24 weeks at the 150mg dose. Participants not achieving the NICE criteria at 48 weeks on the 150mg dose were up titrated to 300mg at the discretion of the treating physician.
Secukinumab (AIN457) 150 mg - 300 mg (Maintanence Period 1)
Non-responders at secukinumab 150mg from the initiation period were uptitrated to secukinumab 300 mg at week 16.
Secukinumab (AIN457) 150 mg - 300 mg (Maintenance Period 2)
Non-responders at secukinumab 150 mg from maintenance 1 period were uptitrated to secukinumab 300 mg at week 48.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 16 weeks

Population: The full analysis set was analyzed. Missing values with respect to response variables based on PASI score have been imputed with non-response throughout regardless of the reason for missing data (e.g. premature study discontinuation, missed visit, administrative issues).

PASI is a combined assessment of lesion severity and affected area into a single score: 0 (no disease) to 72 (maximal disease). Body is divided into 4 areas for scoring (head, arms, trunk, legs); each area is scored by itself and scores are combined for final PASI. For each area, percent of skin involved is estimated: 0 (0%) to 6 (90-100%), and severity is estimated by clinical signs, erythema, induration and desquamation; scale 0 (none) to 4 (maximum). Final PASI = sum of severity parameters for each area\* area score weight of section (head: 0.1, arms: 0.2 body: 0.3 legs: 0.4). PASI 75 is defined as participants achieving ≥ 75% improvement from baseline.

Timeframe: 2, 4, 8, 12, 16 Weeks

Population: The full analysis set was analyzed. Missing values with respect to response variables based on PASI score have been imputed with non-response throughout regardless of the reason for missing data (e.g. premature study discontinuation, missed visit, administrative issues).

PASI is a combined assessment of lesion severity and affected area into a single score: 0 (no disease) to 72 (maximal disease). Body is divided into 4 areas for scoring (head, arms, trunk, legs); each area is scored by itself and scores are combined for final PASI. For each area, percent of skin involved is estimated: 0 (0%) to 6 (90-100%), and severity is estimated by clinical signs, erythema, induration and desquamation; scale 0 (none) to 4 (maximum). Final PASI = sum of severity parameters for each area\* area score weight of section (head: 0.1, arms: 0.2 body: 0.3 legs: 0.4). PASI 50 and PASI 90 are defined as participants achieving ≥ 50% and ≥ 90% improvement from baseline, respectively.

PASI 75 is defined as participants achieving ≥ 75% improvement from baseline. The DLQI is a ten item general dermatology disability index designed to assess health-related quality of life in adult participants with skin diseases. The measure is widely used: it has been tested across 32 different skin conditions and is available in 55 languages. The DLQI total score is a sum of all 10 responses. Scores range from 0 to 30 with higher scores indicating greater health-related quality of life impairment.

The DLQI is a ten item general dermatology disability index designed to assess health-related quality of life in adult participants with skin diseases. The measure is widely used: it has been tested across 32 different skin conditions and is available in 55 languages. It is a self-administered questionnaire which includes domains of daily activity, leisure, personal relationships, symptoms and feelings, treatment and school/work activities. Each domain has 4 response categories ranging from 0 (not at all) to 3 (very much). "Not relevant" is a valid score also and is scored as 0. The DLQI total score is a sum of all 10 responses. Scores range from 0 to 30 with higher scores indicating greater health-related quality of life impairment. A negative change from baseline indicates improvement.

The EQ-5D is an instrument used to assess a participant's health status. The instrument includes a descriptive profile and a visual analog scale (VAS). The descriptive profile includes 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension had 3 response levels: no problems, some problems and severe problems. The VAS is a vertical scale that assesses the health status from 0 (worst possible health state) to 100 (best possible health state). This outcome measures the percent change in VAS score.

Population: The full analysis set was considered for the analysis. Only participants with measurements at each given time point were analyzed for that time point.

The EQ-5D is an instrument used to assess a participant's health status. The instrument includes a descriptive profile and a visual analog scale (VAS). The descriptive profile includes 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension had 3 response levels: no problems, some problems and severe problems. The VAS is a vertical scale that assesses the health status from 0 (worst possible health state) to 100 (best possible health state). This outcome measures the percent change in VAS score.

Secukinumab (AIN457) 300 mg
n=107 Participants
Participants self-administered 300 mg secukinumab loading dose subcutaneously at Day 0 (initiation of study drug) and at weeks 1, 2, 3 \& 4, and then every 4 weeks. Following the Primary Endpoint at 16 weeks, participants meeting the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) criteria of adequate response were eligible to continue on study treatment for a further 32 weeks. Participants not meeting this NICE criterion returned to routine treatment under the care of their usual Clinical Team. Following assessment at week 48, participants meeting the NICE criteria of adequate response were eligible to continue on study treatment for a further 24 weeks. Participants not meeting this NICE criterion returned to routine treatment under the care of their usual Clinical Team.
