Key clinical point: Brodalumab demonstrated significant and rapid improvements in signs and symptoms of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) vs. placebo in 2 phase 3 trials.
Major finding: The percentage of patients achieving American College of Rheumatology (ACR)20 response at week 16 was significantly higher in the 140 mg and 210 mg brodalumab treatment groups than in the placebo group (45.8% and 47.9%, respectively vs. 20.9%; P less than .0001). Results were similar at week 24. The proportion of brodalumab-treated patients achieving ACR50/70, Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 75/90/100 and resolution of dactylitis and enthesitis was significantly higher than placebo-treated patients (P less than .01). Brodalumab was well tolerated.
Study details: In the AMVISION-1 and AMVISION-2 trials, a total of 962 adult patients with active PsA refractory to conventional treatment were randomly assigned (1:1:1) to either subcutaneous brodalumab 140 mg or 210 mg or placebo at weeks 0, 1 and every 2 weeks up to 24 weeks.
Disclosures: The trials were funded by LEO Pharma. K Raymond is an employee of LEO Pharma. KF Hjuler was an employee of LEO Pharma at the time the study was conducted. PJ Mease, PS Helliwell, KF Hjuler and IB McInnes reported ties with various pharmaceutical companies.
