Background: Dactylitis and enthesitis are common debilitating manifestations of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) [1].Secukinumab has previously been reported to reduce the number of dactylitic digits and enthesitis sites in patients (pts) with PsA, with a greater proportion of pts achieving complete resolution of dactylitis and enthesitis than placebo (PBO) at Week (Wk) 24 [2], [3].
Objective: To evaluate the effects of secukinumab on dactylitis and enthesitis through Wk 52 in FUTURE 2 (NCT01752634).
Methods: The study design from FUTURE 2 has been reported previously [2]. The proportions of pts with resolution of dactylitis and enthesitis at Wk 24 and Wk 52 were secondary and exploratory endpoints, respectively; additional measures were dactylitic digit and enthesitis counts. Post-hoc analyses included Kaplan Meier (KM) analysis to achieve resolution of enthesitis and dactylitis and proportion of pts with resolution of dactylitis and enthesitis by baseline (BL) severity.
Results: Of the 397 pts randomized, 138 (35%) and 253 (64%) had dactylitis and enthesitis, respectively, at BL. KM curves indicate that median time to resolution in dactylitis and enthesitis was Wk 4 for secukinumab 300 and 150 mg. At Wk 24, a greater proportion of secukinumab-treated pts achieved complete resolution of dactylitis and enthesitis than PBO (P<0.05); more secukinumab-treated pts had complete resolution of symptoms at Wk 52 than Wk 24. Improvements at Wk 24 and 52 were observed regardless of BL severity. A sustained decrease in mean changes from BL to Wk 24 and 52 in dactylitis and enthesitis count were shown in those pts with symptoms at BL (Table 1 [Tab. 1]), with improvements versus PBO observed by Wk 4 (P<0.05).
Conclusion: Secukinumab demonstrated a rapid resolution of dactylitis and enthesitis as early as Wk 4 and this was sustained up to Wk 52. A higher proportion of pts achieved complete resolution and reduced mean counts of dactylitis and enthesitis at Wk 52 than Wk 24.
