In FUTURE 5, ACR50, dactylitis, enthesitis, mNAPSI, and PASI 90 were prespecified exploratory end points at 2 years, and PASI 100 was a post hoc analysis based on PASI 90. In MAXIMISE, ASAS20 at 1 year was a prespecified exploratory end point. No clinical or statistical conclusions can be drawn.1-3,5,6
Data from the MAXIMISE trial, whose study design, patient population, and dosing regimen are consistent with those of FUTURE 2. In FUTURE 2, 20% of patients had spondylitis with peripheral arthritis. MAXIMISE primary end point: 63% experienced relief on COSENTYX 300 mg at Week 12 vs 31% with placebo, as measured by ASAS20 (P<0.0001) (n=164) (MI).2
Nail data in PsA from FUTURE 5 at Week 16 (mixed population) were consistent with those in the dedicated nail PsO study, TRANSFIGURE. Improvement from baseline NAPSI at Week 16 (primary end point) (repeated measures analysis) was 46.1% for COSENTYX 300 mg (n=63) and 11.7% for placebo (n=56) (P<0.0001).7
At baseline in FUTURE 5 (mixed population), mNAPSI scores were 18.0 and 17.8 in the 300 mg and 150 mg arms, respectively. At Week 16, mNAPSI scores were 8.8 and 8.4 in the 300 mg and 150 mg arms, respectively.6

Study designs
FUTURE 2 study design
FUTURE 2 was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial that evaluated 397 adult patients with active PsA (≥3 swollen and ≥3 tender joints) despite use of NSAIDs, corticosteroids, or DMARDs. Patients had a diagnosis for ≥5 years and received subcutaneous COSENTYX 75 mg (n=99), 150 mg (n=100), 300 mg (n=100), or placebo (n=98) at Weeks 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4, followed by the same dose every 4 weeks thereafter. Patients who received placebo were rerandomized to COSENTYX 150 mg or 300 mg every 4 weeks at Week 16 or Week 24 based on responder status. Primary end point was the percentage of patients with ACR20 response at Week 24. Study population was mixed: 2/3 of patients were biologic-naive and 1/3 were anti–TNF-α inadequate responders.9,10,13
FUTURE 5 study design
FUTURE 5 was a phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial that evaluated 996 adult patients with active PsA. Patients were randomized to receive subcutaneous COSENTYX 150 mg without load (n=222), 150 mg with load (n=220), 300 mg with load (n=222), or placebo (n=332). Patients who received placebo were rerandomized to receive COSENTYX 150 mg or 300 mg every 4 weeks, based on responder status at Week 16 (nonresponders) or Week 24 (responders). Primary end point was the percentage of patients with ACR20 response at Week 16. Secondary end points included change in mTSS at Week 24 from baseline. Study population was mixed: more than 2/3 of patients were biologic-naive and less than 1/3 were anti–TNF-α inadequate responders (individual patients could have been exposed to up to 3 TNF-α inhibitors).6,14
MAXIMISE study design
MAXIMISE was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, 52-week study that evaluated 498 patients with active PsA and axial skeleton involvement (defined by BASDAI score ≥4, spinal pain VAS ≥40 [0 to 100 mm scale]) who had inadequate response to at least 2 NSAIDs for at least 4 weeks. Patients were randomized to receive subcutaneous COSENTYX 150 mg (n=165), COSENTYX 300 mg (n=167), or placebo (n=166) at Weeks 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 8. Primary end point was the proportion of patients with ASAS20 response at Week 12. After Week 12, patients who were placed in the placebo group at baseline were rerandomized to active treatment with COSENTYX 150 mg or 300 mg, administered every 4 weeks from Week 12 to Week 52 (last dose on Week 48) but remained blinded to dose.11
TRANSFIGURE study design
TRANSFIGURE was a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study examining the safety and efficacy of COSENTYX in patients with moderate to severe nail PsO. Patients were randomized to COSENTYX 300 mg (n=66), COSENTYX 150 mg (n=67), or placebo (n=65). All patients were adults with moderate to severe PsO (PASI score ≥12 and BSA ≥10%) and significant nail involvement (fingernail NAPSI score of ≥16 and ≥4 fingernails involved), who were candidates for systemic therapy. Primary end point: NAPSI assessment at Week 16. Secondary end points included NAPSI response over time up to Week 132.12

Lasting joint results at 5 years1
*73% and 76% completed the extension treatment period in the 300 mg arm and 150 mg arm, respectively.1
As with other uncontrolled studies, this phase of the study has limitations (eg, no placebo comparisons, and patients responding better are more likely to stay in the study over time).
At baseline, n=67 and n=63 were biologic-naive in the 300 mg and 150 mg arms, respectively.2
In the mixed population: 74% of patients in the 300 mg arm and the 150 mg arm achieved an ACR20 response; 48% of patients in the 300 mg arm and 42% in the 150 mg arm achieved an ACR50 response; 28% of patients in the 300 mg arm and 29% in the 150 mg arm achieved an ACR70 response.

FUTURE 2 study design
FUTURE 2 was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial that evaluated 397 adult patients with active PsA (≥3 swollen and ≥3 tender joints) despite use of NSAIDs, corticosteroids, or DMARDs. Patients had a diagnosis for ≥5 years and received subcutaneous COSENTYX 75 mg (n=99), 150 mg (n=100), 300 mg (n=100), or placebo (n=98) at Weeks 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4, followed by the same dose every 4 weeks thereafter. Patients who received placebo were rerandomized to COSENTYX 150 mg or 300 mg every 4 weeks at Week 16 or Week 24 based on responder status. Primary end point was the percentage of patients with ACR20 response at Week 24. Study population was mixed: 2/3 of patients were biologic-naive and 1/3 were anti–TNF-α inadequate responders.2-4

MAXIMISE
MAXIMISE studied biologic-naive patients with PsA1
-
The primary end point (ASAS20 responses at Week 12) was achieved by 63% of patients on COSENTYX 300 mg (n=164) compared with 31% for placebo (n=164) (MI; P<0.0001)1
-
The key secondary end point, ASAS20 responses at Week 12 in patients on COSENTYX 150 mg, was achieved by 66% (n=157) (MI; P<0.0001)1
MAXIMISE study design
MAXIMISE was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, 52-week study that evaluated 498 patients with active PsA and axial skeleton involvement (defined by BASDAI score ≥4, spinal pain VAS ≥40 [0 to 100 mm scale]) who had inadequate response to at least 2 NSAIDs for at least 4 weeks. Patients were randomized to receive subcutaneous COSENTYX 150 mg (n=165), COSENTYX 300 mg (n=167), or placebo (n=166) at Weeks 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 8. Primary end point was the proportion of patients with ASAS20 response at Week 12. After Week 12, patients who were placed in the placebo group at baseline were rerandomized to active treatment with COSENTYX 150 mg or 300 mg, administered every 4 weeks from Week 12 to Week 52 (last dose on Week 48) but remained blinded to dose.1

Here with you to reduce the burden of enthesitis

In FUTURE 5, as observed in biologic-naive patients
Complete resolution of enthesitis1
*Patients with no enthesitis are defined as having an LEI score of 0 among patients with a score of 1 or more at baseline.3
†91% of patients completed the study in both the 300 mg and 150 mg arms.1
-
Complete resolution of enthesitis at Week 16 in a mixed population (prespecified secondary end point) using NRI analysis: 56% for COSENTYX 300 mg (n=140) and 55% for COSENTYX 150 mg (n=141) vs 35% for placebo (n=192)2
-
82% of patients achieved complete resolution of enthesitis at 2 years in the 150 mg arm1
-
Among patients with enthesitis, 40% of biologic-naive patients in the COSENTYX 150 mg arm were up-titrated to 300 mg starting at Week 52, at the investigator’s discretion1
In FUTURE 5, complete resolution of enthesitis was a prespecified exploratory end point at 2 years in a subgroup of biologic-naive patients with LEI >0 at baseline. No clinical or statistical conclusions can be drawn.3
As with other uncontrolled studies, this phase of the FUTURE 5 study has limitations (eg, no placebo comparisons, and patients responding better are more likely to stay in the study over time).
At baseline, 97 patients and 93 patients in FUTURE 5 had enthesitis in the 300 mg and 150 mg arms, respectively (biologic-naive).3

Study designs
FUTURE 2 study design
FUTURE 2 was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial that evaluated 397 adult patients with active PsA (≥3 swollen and ≥3 tender joints) despite use of NSAIDs, corticosteroids, or DMARDs. Patients had a diagnosis for ≥5 years and received subcutaneous COSENTYX 75 mg (n=99), 150 mg (n=100), 300 mg (n=100), or placebo (n=98) at Weeks 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4, followed by the same dose every 4 weeks thereafter. Patients who received placebo were rerandomized to COSENTYX 150 mg or 300 mg every 4 weeks at Week 16 or Week 24 based on responder status. Primary end point was the percentage of patients with ACR20 response at Week 24. Study population was mixed: 2/3 of patients were biologic-naive and 1/3 were anti–TNF-α inadequate responders.4,5,7
FUTURE 5 study design
FUTURE 5 was a phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial that evaluated 996 adult patients with active PsA. Patients were randomized to receive subcutaneous COSENTYX 150 mg without load (n=222), 150 mg with load (n=220), 300 mg with load (n=222), or placebo (n=332). Patients who received placebo were rerandomized to receive COSENTYX 150 mg or 300 mg every 4 weeks, based on responder status at Week 16 (nonresponders) or Week 24 (responders). Primary end point was the percentage of patients with ACR20 response at Week 16. Secondary end points included change in mTSS at Week 24 from baseline. Study population was mixed: more than 2/3 of patients were biologic-naive and less than 1/3 were anti–TNF-α inadequate responders (individual patients could have been exposed to up to 3 TNF-α inhibitors).2,3

Study designs
FUTURE 2 study design
FUTURE 2 was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial that evaluated 397 adult patients with active PsA (≥3 swollen and ≥3 tender joints) despite use of NSAIDs, corticosteroids, or DMARDs. Patients had a diagnosis for ≥5 years and received subcutaneous COSENTYX 75 mg (n=99), 150 mg (n=100), 300 mg (n=100), or placebo (n=98) at Weeks 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4, followed by the same dose every 4 weeks thereafter. Patients who received placebo were rerandomized to COSENTYX 150 mg or 300 mg every 4 weeks at Week 16 or Week 24 based on responder status. Primary end point was the percentage of patients with ACR20 response at Week 24. Study population was mixed: 2/3 of patients were biologic-naive and 1/3 were anti–TNF-α inadequate responders.3,4,6
FUTURE 5 study design
FUTURE 5 was a phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial that evaluated 996 adult patients with active PsA. Patients were randomized to receive subcutaneous COSENTYX 150 mg without load (n=222), 150 mg with load (n=220), 300 mg with load (n=222), or placebo (n=332). Patients who received placebo were rerandomized to receive COSENTYX 150 mg or 300 mg every 4 weeks, based on responder status at Week 16 (nonresponders) or Week 24 (responders). Primary end point was the percentage of patients with ACR20 response at Week 16. Secondary end points included change in mTSS at Week 24 from baseline. Study population was mixed: more than 2/3 of patients were biologic-naive and less than 1/3 were anti–TNF-α inadequate responders (individual patients could have been exposed to up to 3 TNF-α inhibitors).2,7
