ABSTRACT
Psoriasis is an immune-mediated chronic recurrent inflammatory disease, and biological agents targeting cytokines and their receptors involved in its pathogenesis have become an increasingly important option for its treatment in recent years. With the successive appearance of biological agents such as secukinumab and ustekinumab on the market in China, the use of biologics will become increasingly common in the treatment of psoriasis. This review summarizes the efficacy of different biological agents and individualized drug selection in the treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis, with a view to providing a reference for physicians in clinical practice.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE：To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of guselkumab in the treatment of moderate-to- severe plaque psoriasis ，and to provide evidence-based reference for the clinical treatment. METHODS ：Retrieved from PubMed ， Embase，Cochrane Library ，CNKI，VIP，Wanfang database during inception to Oct. 2019，randomized controlled trials （RCTs） about guselkumab versus placebo/positive control in the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis were collected. After literature screening and data extraction ，quality evaluation was performed by using the bias risk evaluation tool recommended by the Cochrane System evaluator manual 5.1.0. Meta-analysis was performed by using Stata 16.0 software. RESULTS ：Eight RCTs with a total of 3 488 patients were included. The results of Meta-analysis indicated that the proportion of patients who achieved 90％ reduction or more from baseline of psoriasis area and severity index （PASI）in guselkumab group was significantly higher than that placebo group [RR ＝26.72，95％CI（15.98，44.70），P＜0.001]，adaliumumab group [RR ＝1.45，95％CI（1.32，1.59）， P＜0.001] and secukinumab group （P＜0.000 1）. The proportion of patients with Investigator ’s Global Assessment （IGA）score of 0 or 1 in guselkumab group was significantly better than placebo group [RR ＝11.15，95％ CI（8.22，15.14），P＜0.001] and adaliumumab group [RR ＝1.27，95％CI（1.19，1.35），P＜0.001]. The proportion of patients with IGA score of 0，the proportion of patients who achieved 75％ reduction or more from baseline of PASI ，dermatology life qu ality index score of 0 or 1 in guselkumab group were signifi cantly superior than placebo group and adaliumumab gr oup，the proportion of patients who achieved 100％ reduction from baseline of PASI in guselkumab group Lewx- was significantly superior than placebo group （P＜0.05）， inn@outlook.com there was no significant difference compared with adaliumumab group （P＞0.05）. There was no statistical significance in the proportion of patients with IGA score of and other secondary outcome indicators between guselkumab and secukinumab group （P＞0.05）. In the safety indicators as total incidence rate of ADR ，rate of withdrawl due to ADR ，etc. ，there was no statistical significance between guselkumab and placebo/ adalimumab groups （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS ：Guselkumab is superior to placebo ，adaliumumab and secukinumab in improving the symptoms of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis with good safety .
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE：To evaluate the drug economy of ixekizumab in the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. METHODS： Literatures were retrieved from PubMed ， Embase， The Cochrane Library ， CNKI and Wanfang database ， supplemented by manual search ，search time from the database establishment to Oct. 31st，2019，using Chinese and English search terms included “Ixekizumab”“Taltz”“Psoriasis”“Pharmacoeconomics”“Cost-benifit analysis ”“Cost-effectiveness analysis ” “Cost-utility analysis ”，etc. The literatures were screened according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Relevant pharmacoeconomic studies about ixekizumab in the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis were collected ，and the study methods and pharmacoeconomic evaluation results were summarized. RESULTS ：A total of 8 literatures were included ，involving 9 studies. The overall quality of the studies was high. All the studies were distributed in foreign countries such as Canada ，the United States and the United Kingdom. All the studies adopted Markov model. The health outcomes showed that ixekizumab could bring more quality-adjusted life years. Compared with methotrexate combined with phototherapy ，infliximab，ustekinumab and secukinumab ， the incremental cost-utility ratio （ICUR）of ixekizumab was different in different studies. CONCLUSIONS ：Ixekizumab has certain economic advantages for the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis ，but there is still a lack of relevant research in China and it is urgent to carry out relevant research suitable for Chinese.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE： To evaluate the efficacy and safety of apremilast in the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis systematically. METHODS： Retrieved from PubMed， Embase， Cochrane Library， VIP， CNKI and CBM， RCTs about apremilast or apremilast combined with other drugs （trial group） versus placebo （control group） in the treatment of moderate- to-severe plaque psoriasis were collected. Meta-analysis was conducted by using Rev Man 5.3 statistical software after literature screening， data extraction and quality evaluation with bias risk evaluation tool of Cochrane System Evaluator Manual 5.1.0. RESULTS： Totally 7 studies were included， involving 2 332 patients. Results of Meta-analysis showed that case number of psoriasis assessment and severity index （PASI） decreased by 75％ （PASI 75％） [OR＝6.44，95％CI（4.90，8.45），P＜0.000 01]， PASI 90％ [OR＝8.13， 95％CI（4.65， 14.22）， P＜0.000 01] and sPGA 0 or 1 [OR＝3.89，95％CI（3.00，5.05），P＜0.000 01]， the incidence of ADR [OR＝1.87，95％CI（1.44，2.43）， P＜0.000 01] in trial group were significantly more or higher than control group. Subgroup analysis by apremilast dose showed that case number of 20 mg PASI 75％ [OR＝4.72，95％CI（2.77，8.05），P＜0.000 01]， 30 mg PASI 75％ [OR＝7.05，95％CI（5.13，9.69），P＜0.000 01]， 20 mg PASI 90％ [OR＝4.27，95％CI（1.80，10.09），P＝0.001]， 30 mg PASI 90％ [OR＝11.11，95％CI（5.27，23.43），P＜0.000 01]， 20 mg sPGA 0 or 1 [OR＝2.82，95％CI（1.51，5.26），P＝0.001]， 30 mg sPGA 0 or 1 [OR＝4.13，95％CI（3.10，5.50），P＜0.000 01]， the incidence of 30 mg ADR [OR＝1.94，95％CI（1.51，2.49），P＜0.000 01] in trial group were significantly more or higher than control group. There was no statistical significance in the incidence of serious ADR [OR＝1.27，95％CI（0.77，2.07），P＝0.35] or case number of ADR leading to withdrawal [OR＝1.48，95％CI（1.00，2.20），P＝0.05] between 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS： Apremilast is effective for moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis in dose-dependent manner and improve the quality of life， but increase the incidence of ADR.
