A Prospective Multicenter Study for the Assessment of Treatment Patterns, Effectiveness and Safety of Secukinumab in Adult Patients With Moderate to Severe Plaque Psoriasis in a Real-world Setting in China

Completed
Conditions
Psoriasis
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT04894890
Lead Sponsor
Novartis Pharmaceuticals
Brief Summary

This non-interventional, prospective, multi-center study aims to provide short- and long- term treatment patterns, effectiveness, and safety of secukinumab in Chinese patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis (with and without PsA) initiating treatment of secukinumab.

Detailed Description

All patients will be followed up for 52 weeks no matter they adhere to secukinumab or they have shifted to other treatment plans. Data will be collected in conjunction with routine care visits, most likely happen at week 0, 4, 12, 16, 24, 36, 52. No extra study visits, examinations, laboratory tests or procedures will be mandated. If visits happen at other time points (not within the window period), then they will be counted as unscheduled visits.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of patients achieving a 90% reduction in the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) scoreweek 24

The PASI is used for assessing and grading the severity of psoriatic lesions and their response to therapy. PASI scores can range from a lower value of 0, corresponding to no signs of psoriasis, up to a theoretic maximum of 72.0.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of patients achieving DLQI 0 or 1 responseweek 4, week12, week 16, week 24, week 36, week 52

DLQI is a 10-item general dermatology disability index designed to assess HRQoL in adult patients with skin diseases such as eczema, psoriasis, acne and viral warts. The measure is self-administered and includes domains of daily activities, leisure, personal relationships, symptoms and feelings, treatment and work/school.

Each item has 4 response categories ranging from 0 (not at all) to 3 (very much). "Not relevant" is also a valid response and is scored as 0. The DLQI total score is a sum of the 10 questions.

Scores range from 0 to 30 and higher scores indicate greater HRQoL impairment. Additionally, each subscale of the DLQI may be analyzed separately.

Incidence of unexpected treatment related AEs/SAEs on-treatment and post-discontinuation follow up52 weeks

An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient administered a medicinal product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment.

Serious adverse event (SAE) is defined as an AE which results in death or is life-threatening, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, constitutes a congenital anomaly/birth defect, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization or is medically significant

Mean change of Investigator Global Assessment Mod 2011(IGA mod 2011)week 4, week12, week 16, week 24, week 36, week 52

The IGA mod 2011 rating scale for overall psoriatic disease can range from 0 to 4 (0: Clear, 1: almost clear, 2: mild, 3: moderate, 4: severe)

Frequency distribution of patients by dosing pattern52 weeks

Frequency distribution of patients by dosing pattern will be collected

Frequency distribution of patients by secukinumab retentionWeek 4, week 12, week 16, week 24, week 36 and week 52

Percentage of patients who are persistent secukinumab users or who discontinue secukinumab

Mean (SD) time to secukinumab discontinuationUp to 52 weeks

Mean (SD) time to secukinumab discontinuation will be collected

Median (interquartile range) time to secukinumab discontinuation52 weeks

Median (IQR) time to secukinumab discontinuation will be collected

Percentage of patients experiencing a 75% reduction of PASI (PASI75)week 4, week12, week 16, week 24, week 36, week 52

The PASI is used for assessing and grading the severity of psoriatic lesions and their response to therapy. PASI scores can range from a lower value of 0, corresponding to no signs of psoriasis, up to a theoretic maximum of 72.0.

Percentage of patients experiencing a 90% reduction of PASI (PASI90)week 4, week12, week 16, week 36, week 52

The PASI is used for assessing and grading the severity of psoriatic lesions and their response to therapy. PASI scores can range from a lower value of 0, corresponding to no signs of psoriasis, up to a theoretic maximum of 72.0.

Percentage of patients experiencing a 100% reduction of PASI (PASI100)week 4, week12, week 16, week 24, week 36, week 52

The PASI is used for assessing and grading the severity of psoriatic lesions and their response to therapy. PASI scores can range from a lower value of 0, corresponding to no signs of psoriasis, up to a theoretic maximum of 72.0.

Percentage of patients with absolute PASI change ≤1, ≤2, ≤3,and ≤5week 4, week12, week 16, week 24, week 36, week 52

The PASI is used for assessing and grading the severity of psoriatic lesions and their response to therapy. PASI scores can range from a lower value of 0, corresponding to no signs of psoriasis, up to a theoretic maximum of 72.0

Percentage of patients with Investigator Global Assessment Mod 2011 (IGA mod 2011) 0 or 1week 4, week12, week 16, week 24, week 36, week 52

The IGA mod 2011 rating scale for overall psoriatic disease can range from 0 to 4 (0: Clear, 1: almost clear, 2: mild, 3: moderate, 4: severe)

Percentage of patients achieved (Body Surface Area) BSA≤1%week 4, week12, week 16, week 24, week 36, week 52

The total BSA affected by plaque-type psoriasis will be estimated from the percentages of areas affected, including head, trunk, upper limbs and lower limbs.

The following calculations will be done: each reported percentage will be multiplied by its respective body region corresponding factor (head = 0.1, trunk = 0.3, upper limbs = 0.2, lower limbs = 0.4). The resulting four percentages will be added up to estimate the total BSA affected by psoriasis.

Mean change in Dermatology life quality index (DLQI)Baseline,week 4, week12, week 16, week 24, week 36, week 52

DLQI is a 10-item general dermatology disability index designed to assess HRQoL in adult patients with skin diseases such as eczema, psoriasis, acne and viral warts. The measure is self-administered and includes domains of daily activities, leisure, personal relationships, symptoms and feelings, treatment and work/school.

Each item has 4 response categories ranging from 0 (not at all) to 3 (very much). "Not relevant" is also a valid response and is scored as 0. The DLQI total score is a sum of the 10 questions.
