Psoriasis Highlights From AADVMX 2021
Key studies on psoriasis presented at the American Academy of Dermatology Virtual Meeting Experience (AAD VMX) 2021included data on new topical treatments and biological therapies.
Dr Steven Feldman, of Wake Forest School of Medicine, reviews trial data demonstrating the efficacy of a topical formulation of roflumilast, a phosphodiesterase type 4 (PDE-4) inhibitor previously used in oral systemic form to treat psoriasis.
He also discusses a meta-analysis of the efficacy of biologics favoring newer treatments, such as drugs targeting IL-17 and IL-23.
Dr Feldman reviews the results of two pivotal phase 3 trials presented at the meeting. The POETYK study examined deucravacitinib, a TYK2 inhibitor. In a head-to-head comparison, deucravacitinib was found to be more effective and better tolerated than apremilast in treating psoriasis. BE RADIANT, another head-to-head study, compared the IL-17 blockers bimekizumab and secukinumab. The year-long study favored bimekizumab, though it was associated with a higher risk for candidiasis.
Finally, Dr Feldman discusses the significance of a study showing that psoriasis patients have an approximately 20% higher risk for COVID-19 infection compared with a control group.

Multiple sclerosis updates from AAN 2021
Mitzi Joi Williams, MD, Medical Director and CEO of Joi Life Wellness Group in Atlanta, GA, discusses treatment data and other timely updates in multiple sclerosis (MS) coming out of the American Academy of Neurology (AAN) 2021 Annual Meeting.
Dr. Williams introduces the new National African Americans with Multiple Sclerosis Registry, an important initiative aimed at expanding evidence-based knowledge of MS in African American patients, increasing clinical trial participation, and engaging in research that will benefit this community.
In a review of a long-term analysis of evobrutinib, Dr. Williams shares the positive efficacy and safety outcomes that were observed and maintained in patients receiving evobrutinib 75 mg twice daily throughout the duration of the 48-week double-blind, randomized, phase 2 trial and the 60-week open-label extension portions of the study.
Next, Dr. Williams highlights a study of patients taking disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) at the NYU MS Care Center. The analysis found factors such as public insurance status, younger age, and Hispanic ethnicity to be larger predictors of COVID-19 infection in this patient population than any of the DMTs that were studied.
Lastly, Dr. Williams discusses an analysis of racial and ethnic differences in patients receiving ofatumumab in the ASCLEPIOS I/II and APOLITOS trials. The study revealed no clinically relevant differences in annualized relapse rate, pharmacokinetics, B-cell depletion, or safety profile between the study populations.
