Key clinical point: In a real-world population of patients with treatment-resistant, long-standing active psoriatic arthritis (PsA), nearly 80% persisted with guselkumab treatment for 6 months and showed improvements in peripheral joint and skin symptoms of PsA.
Major finding: Overall, 78.9% of patients who initiated guselkumab had persistent use at the 6-month follow-up. The mean scores for clinical Disease Activity in PsA (mean change [Δ] −5.4), overall joint+skin activity (Δ −19.0), patient-reported pain (Δ −9.1), and percentage of skin with psoriasis (Δ −5.1%) improved significantly in patients receiving guselkumab for 6 months (all P < .001).
Study details: This study evaluated 114 patients with active PsA from the CorEvitas PsA/Spondyloarthritis Registry who initiated guselkumab.
Disclosures: This study was sponsored by CorEvitas, LLC, and the analysis was funded by Janssen Scientific Affairs, LLC. Six authors declared employment with CorEvitas, LLC, or Janssen Scientific Affairs, LLC, or owned stock or stock options in Johnson & Johnson or others. Several authors declared ties with various sources, including Janssen and CorEvitas.
