Abstract Background Certolizumab pegol (CZP) treatment has demonstrated improvements in multiple manifestations of non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (nr-axSpA), including patient-reported outcomes (PROs). Here, we report PROs for nr-axSpA patients treated with CZP or placebo in CaxSpAnd - the first 52-week placebo-controlled study to investigate the efficacy of an anti-TNF agent in patients with active nr-axSpA and objective signs of inflammation. Methods C-axSpAnd (NCT02552212) is a 3-year, phase 3, multicenter study including a 52-week double-blind, placebo-controlled period (completed); patients who had an inadequate response to ≥ 2 non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs were randomized 1:1 to placebo or CZP (400mg at Weeks 0/2/4, then 200mg every 2 weeks). Clinical PROs included: Sleep Problems Index scores I (6 items) and II (9 items) from the Medical Outcomes Study Sleep Scale (assesses sleep disturbance, adequacy, somnolence, quantity, snoring, and awakening short of breath or with a headache), nocturnal spinal pain (numerical rating scale [NRS]), fatigue (BASDAI Q1), and morning stiffness (average of BASDAI Q5 + 6). Post-hoc analyses of minimal clinically important differences (MCID [≥1-point improvement]) for fatigue and nocturnal spinal pain were conducted. Variables were analyzed using an ANCOVA model including baseline score as a covariate and fixed effects for treatment group, region and MRI/CRP classification. P-values were nominal. Missing values following discontinuation of double-blind treatment were imputed using last observation carried forward. Results 317 patients with nr-axSpA were randomised to CZP (n = 159) or placebo (n = 158); 125 (79%) and 54 (34%) patients, respectively, completed Week 52. CZP-treated patients showed greater improvements (indicated by higher scores) in Sleep Problems Index II scores vs placebo-treated patients at Week 12 (mean change from baseline: 4.8 [CZP] vs 2.2 [placebo]; p < 0.001). Improvements were also seen in other clinical PROs (Table). By Week 12, greater proportions of patients treated with CZP vs placebo experienced at least MCID response in fatigue (85.4% vs 57.6%, respectively) and nocturnal spinal pain (82.8% vs 58.9%, respectively); results were sustained through Week 52. Conclusion CZP-treated nr-axSpA patients showed substantial improvements in sleep quality and other clinical outcomes important to patients; future analyses of these data will explore associations between sleep quality and other clinical PROs.

Abstract Background/Aims  Filgotinib (FIL) is an oral, potent, selective Janus kinase 1 (JAK1) inhibitor. FINCH 1 (NCT02889796) assessed FIL efficacy, safety and patient reported outcome (PRO) data in patients (pts) with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with an inadequate response to methotrexate (MTX-IR). We report data through week 52 (W52) of the FINCH 1 study. Primary outcome results at week (W)12 and W24 were previously reported. Methods  This global, phase 3, double-blind, active- and placebo (PBO)-controlled study randomised MTX-IR pts with active RA on a background of stable MTX 3:3:2:3 to oral FIL 200 mg or FIL 100 mg once daily, subcutaneous adalimumab (ADA) 40 mg every 2W, or PBO up to W52; pts receiving PBO at W24 were re-randomised to FIL 100 or 200 mg. Efficacy was assessed using clinical, radiographic, and pt-reported outcomes; W52 comparisons were not adjusted for multiplicity, and nominal p-values are reported. Safety endpoints included types and rates of adverse events (AEs) and laboratory abnormalities. PRO assessment included the HAQ-DI and VAS pain scale, SF-36, and FACIT-Fatigue questionnaire. Change from baseline (CFB) at various time points was assessed up to W52 for each treatment group. Results  Of 1,755 treated pts, 1,417 received study drug through W52. FIL efficacy was sustained through W52 with DAS28(CRP) <2.6 remission rates of 54%, 43%, and 46% of pts receiving FIL 200 and 100 mg and ADA, respectively, (nominal p for FIL 200 vs ADA = 0.024) (Table 1). FIL safety profile through W52 was consistent with W24 data. AEs of interest were infrequent and balanced among treatments. As early as W2, through W24, pts receiving either dose of FIL experienced nominally significantly greater (p < 0.001) CFB in HAQ-DI and VAS pain scale than those receiving PBO. These improvements were sustained up to W52. In general, CFB for HAQ-DI, VAS pain scale, and FACIT-Fatigue observed for the FIL groups was higher or comparable to ADA through W52 (Table 1).

Background:Although axial disease may affect up to 70% of patients (pts) with Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA), evidence on the efficacy of biologics in the treatment of axial manifestations in such pts is limited,1particularly as validated classification criteria for this subtype of PsA are not yet available. MAXIMISE (NCT02721966) is the first randomised controlled trial evaluating the efficacy of a biologic in the management of the axial manifestations of PsA and showed that secukinumab (SEC) 300 and 150 mg provided rapid and significant improvement in ASAS20 responses in these pts through week (Wk) 12.2Objectives:To present 52 wks efficacy results and imaging data from the MAXIMISE trial.Methods:This phase 3b, double-blind, placebo (PBO)-controlled, multicentre 52-wk trial included 498 pts (aged ≥18 years) with a diagnosis of PsA and classified by CASPAR criteria, spinal pain VAS score ≥ 40/100 and BASDAI score ≥ 4 despite use of at least two NSAIDs. Pts were randomised to SEC 300 mg (N=167) or SEC 150 mg (N=165) or PBO (N=166) wkly for 4 wks and every 4 wks thereafter. At Wk 12, PBO pts were re-randomised to SEC 300/150 mg. The primary endpoint was ASAS20 response with SEC 300 mg at Wk 12. The key secondary endpoint was ASAS20 response with SEC 150 mg at Wk 12. Wk 52 data are presented as observed. Bone marrow oedema of the entire spine and sacroiliac joints were assessed centrally with Berlin MRI scores at Baseline, Wk 12 and Wk 52.Results:Primary and key secondary endpoints were met; ASAS20 responses were sustained and increased further through Wk 52. 75%/79.7% of the PBO pts re-randomised at Wk 12 to SEC 300/150 mg achieved ASAS20 response at Wk 52 (Figure 1). ASAS40 responses at Wk 52 were 69.1% [SEC 300 mg], 64.5% [SEC 150 mg], 62.5% [PBO-SEC 300 mg], and 54.1% [PBO-SEC 150 mg]. At baseline, 59.5% [SEC 300 mg], 53.5% [SEC 150 mg] and 64.2% [PBO] of the pts had positive MRIs for the sacroiliac joints and/or the spine with Berlin MRI score ≥1. The reductions of Berlin MRI score for entire spine and sacroiliac joints were statistically significant for pts treated with SEC 300/150 mg vs. placebo (Figure 2a and b). There were no new or unexpected safety findings.Figure 1.ASAS20 Response over 52 Wks*Figure 2.Total Berlin MRI score for the Entire Spine and Sacroiliac Joints at Wk 12Conclusion:Secukinumab improved all evaluated ASAS responses through Wk 52 in PsA pts with axial manifestations and inadequate responses to NSAIDs and led to significant reduction of inflammatory MRI lesions in the spine and the Sacroiliac Joints. The safety profile of secukinumab through Wk 52 was consistent with previous reports.3-4References:[1]McInnes IB, et al.Lancet.2015;386(9999):1137–46.[2]Baraliakos X, et al.Arthritis Rheumatol. 2019;71 (suppl 10).[3]Langley RG, et al.N Engl J Med.2014;371:326–38.[4]Sieper J, et al.Ann Rheum Dis.2016;0:1–8.Acknowledgments:The study was sponsored by Novartis Pharma AG, Basel, Switzerland.Disclosure of Interests:Xenofon Baraliakos Grant/research support from: Grant/research support from: AbbVie, BMS, Celgene, Chugai, Merck, Novartis, Pfizer, UCB and Werfen, Consultant of: AbbVie, BMS, Celgene, Chugai, Merck, Novartis, Pfizer, UCB and Werfen, Speakers bureau: AbbVie, BMS, Celgene, Chugai, Merck, Novartis, Pfizer, UCB and Werfen, Laure Gossec Grant/research support from: Lilly, Mylan, Pfizer, Sandoz, Consultant of: AbbVie, Amgen, Biogen, Celgene, Janssen, Lilly, Novartis, Pfizer, Sandoz, Sanofi-Aventis, UCB, Effie Pournara Shareholder of: Novartis, Employee of: Novartis, Sławomir Jeka Grant/research support from: AbbVie, Pfizer, Roche, Novartis, MSD, Sandoz, Eli Lilly, Egis, UCB, Celgene, Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Pfizer, Roche, Novartis, MSD, Sandoz, Eli Lilly, Egis, UCB, Celgene, Ricardo Blanco Grant/research support from: AbbVie, MSD, Roche, Consultant of: Abbvie, Eli Lilly, Pfizer, Roche, Bristol-Myers, Janssen, UCB Pharma and MSD, Speakers bureau: Abbvie, Eli Lilly, Pfizer, Roche, Bristol-Myers, Janssen, UCB Pharma.

Background:Bimekizumab (BKZ), a monoclonal antibody that selectively inhibits interleukin (IL)-17A and IL-17F, has demonstrated clinical efficacy and safety in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) treated over a period up to 96 weeks.1,2Objectives:To report 3-year interim patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in patients with active AS treated with BKZ in a phase 2b dose-ranging study (BE AGILE; NCT02963506) and its open-label extension (OLE; NCT03355573).Methods:BE AGILE study design has been described previously.1 Patients treated with BKZ 160 mg or 320 mg every 4 weeks (Q4W) at Week 48 in BE AGILE were eligible for OLE entry. All OLE patients received BKZ 160 mg Q4W. Outcome measures are reported for the OLE full analysis set (patients who entered the OLE and had ≥1 dose of BKZ and ≥1 valid efficacy variable measurement in the OLE), and include: BASDAI, BASDAI50 responder rate, BASFI, fatigue (BASDAI Q1), morning stiffness (mean of BASDAI Q5 + 6), total spinal pain (numeric rating scale [NRS]), SF-36 PCS and MCS, and ASQoL. Missing data were imputed using multiple imputation (MI; based on the missing at random assumption) for continuous variables and non-responder imputation (NRI) for dichotomous variables.Results:262/303 (86%) patients randomised at BE AGILE study baseline (BL) completed Week 48 on BKZ 160 mg or 320 mg, of whom 255/262 (97%) entered the OLE (full analysis set: 254). From baseline to Week 48 in BE AGILE, BKZ-treated patients showed clinically relevant improvements in disease activity (BASDAI, BASDAI50), physical function (BASFI), fatigue, morning stiffness, spinal pain, and quality of life (SF-36 PCS and MCS, ASQoL) (Figure 1). Group-level improvements in all reported continuous efficacy measures exceeded published minimally important difference (MID), minimum clinically important improvement (MCII), and/or minimum clinically important difference (MCID) thresholds (Figure 1).3,4 Efficacy in all reported outcome measures was maintained or continued to improve from Week 48 to Week 144 or 156 (Figure 1).Conclusion:BKZ treatment was associated with sustained and consistent efficacy in patients with active AS over 3 years, including patient-reported disease activity, physical function, fatigue, morning stiffness, spinal pain, and quality of life.References:[1]van der Heijde D.

Abstract Background Filgotinib (FIL) is an oral, potent, selective Janus kinase 1 inhibitor that has shown good efficacy and was well tolerated for treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The objective of this study was to evaluate efficacy and safety of FIL treatment in patients with RA who have had an inadequate response to methotrexate (MTX). Methods This Phase 3, double-blind, active- and placebo (PBO)-controlled study randomised patients with active RA (3:3:2:3) to FIL 200mg, FIL 100mg, adalimumab [ADA] 40mg every 2 weeks, or PBO daily for up to 52 weeks; results through week 24 are presented. Patients also received background MTX. Primary efficacy endpoint was proportion of patients achieving ACR20 at week 12; additional clinical assessments included ACR50 and ACR70 and DAS28-CRP score ≤3.2 and <2.6, and patient-reported outcomes including HAQ-DI. Safety endpoints included adverse event types and rates. Logistic regression was used for superiority test of FIL vs PBO for ACR response and other binary endpoints, while mixed-effect model for repeated measures (MMRM) were used for continuous endpoints. Non-inferiority test of FIL to ADA (preserving >50% of ADA response) was performed for DAS28-CRP ≤3.2 and <2.6. Results Of 1,759 patients randomised, 1,755 received study drug: 475 FIL 200mg; 480 FIL 100mg; 325 ADA; and 475 PBO, of which 89.5%, 90.4%, 88.9%, and 81.3%, respectively, completed 24 weeks of study drug. 81.8% were female, mean (standard deviation [SD]) duration of RA was 7.8 (7.6) years, and mean (SD) DAS28-CRP was 5.7 (0.9). At week 12, significantly more patients in the FIL 200mg and 100mg arms achieved an ACR20 improvement vs PBO (Table 1). More patients receiving FIL achieved ACR50 and ACR70 improvements, DAS28-CRP scores ≤3.2 and <2.6 and reported improvements in HAQ-DI scores versus PBO (Table 1). Non-inferiority of FIL 200mg to ADA was met based on DAS28-CRP ≤3.2. The FIL safety profile was consistent with prior studies through Week 24. Conclusion FIL 200mg and 100mg led to significant improvement in signs and symptoms of RA, prevented radiographic progression, improved physical function compared to PBO, and was well-tolerated. Efficacy of FIL 200mg was non-inferior to ADA based on DAS28-CRP ≤3.2. Disclosures D. Walker: Other; Received support from Lilly, Pfizer, Novartis and Roche. B.G.

Abstract Background PROMISE-2 was a phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study that evaluated the efficacy and safety of repeat intravenous (IV) doses of the calcitonin gene-related peptide–targeted monoclonal antibody eptinezumab (ALD403) for migraine prevention in adults with chronic migraine. This report describes the results of PROMISE-2 through 24 weeks of treatment. Methods Patients received up to two 30-min IV administrations of eptinezumab 100 mg, 300 mg, or placebo separated by 12 weeks. Patients recorded migraine and headache endpoints in a daily eDiary. Additional assessments, including patient-reported outcomes, were performed at regularly scheduled clinic visits throughout the 32-week study period (screening, day 0, and weeks 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, and 32). Results A total of 1072 adults received treatment: eptinezumab 100 mg, n = 356; eptinezumab 300 mg, n = 350; placebo, n = 366. The reduction in mean monthly migraine days observed during the first dosing interval (100 mg, − 7.7 days; 300 mg, − 8.2 days; placebo, − 5.6 days) was further decreased after an additional dose (100 mg, − 8.2 days; 300 mg, − 8.8 days; placebo, − 6.2 days), with both doses of eptinezumab demonstrating consistently greater reductions from baseline compared to placebo. The ≥50% and ≥ 75% migraine responder rates (MRRs) increased after a second dose, with more eptinezumab-treated patients experiencing migraine response than placebo patients (≥50% MRRs weeks 13–24: 100 mg, 61.0%; 300 mg, 64.0%; placebo, 44.0%; and ≥ 75% MRRs weeks 13–24: 100 mg, 39.3%; 300 mg, 43.1%; placebo, 23.8%). The percentages of patients who improved on patient-reported outcomes, including the Headache Impact Test and Patient Global Impression of Change, increased following the second dose administration at week 12, and were greater with eptinezumab than with placebo at all time points. No new safety concerns were identified with the second dose regarding the incidence, nature, and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events. Conclusion Eptinezumab 100 mg or 300 mg administered IV at day 0 and repeated at week 12 provided sustained migraine preventive benefit over a full 24 weeks and demonstrated an acceptable safety profile in patients with chronic migraine.
