2 Ustekinumab (Stelara) for psoriatic arthritis second line after disease modifying anti rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) Target group Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) adults; second line after failure of disease modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs). Background PsA belongs to a group of diseases known collectively as the spondyloarthropathies and is a chronic inflammatory arthritis that occurs in association with psoriasis of the skin or nails. Asymmetric involvement of large and small joints, particularly the distal interphalangeal joint, sacroiliac joints and the spine is common. PsA has a chronic relapsing course, characterised by flares and remissions, which may be life-long. Although the cause of psoriasis and its associated arthritis is not fully understood, evidence suggests that it is a T-cell mediated disease, most likely auto-immune in origin, with a strong genetic component 1. The diagnosis of PsA can be difficult due to the absence of specific markers. There are many features common to both PsA and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) 2. The absence of rheumatoid factor (RF sero - negative) can help eliminate RA from the differential diagnosis. Technology description Ustekinumab (Stelara, CNTO , CNTO 1275) is a human monoclonal antibody that targets the p40 subunit of interleukin-12 (IL-12) and interleukin-23 (IL-23), preventing them from binding to their receptors on T-cells and natural-killer cells. The IL-12/23 proteins are believed to be important in regulating the immune system and to play a role in inflammatory diseases such as PsA. Ustekinumab is administered by subcutaneous (SC) injection at doses of 45 to 90mg (doses used in trials) in weeks 0 and 4, with a maintenance dose every 12 weeks thereafter. Ustekinumab is licensed in EU for the treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis after failure of systemic therapies. It is also in phase II/IIIs trial for Crohn s disease. Innovation and/or advantages Ustekinumab is the first drug in a new class of cytokine inhibitors. The 12-week maintenance dosing interval is less frequent than other biologic therapies: etanercept requires weekly/twice weekly SC injections, adalimumab requires fortnightly SC injections; and infliximab requires 8-weekly IV infusions. Developer Janssen-Cilag Ltd. Availability, launch or marketing dates, and licensing plans In phase III clinical trial. NHS or Government priority area This topic is relevant to The Musculoskeletal Services Framework (2006) and The National Service Framework for long Term Conditions (2005). 2

Etanercept and infliximab for the treatment of adults 7 with psoriatic arthritis British Society of Rheumatology. Guideline for anti-tnf-a therapy in psoriatic arthritis Clinical need and burden of disease It is estimated that 5-7% of those with psoriasis and approximately 40% of those with extensive skin disease have PsA, many being undiagnosed 7. The prevalence of PsA is estimated to be between 0.1% and 1% of the population 7 equating to 54, ,500 people in England and Wales 9. PsA has an equal gender distribution 8 and characteristically develops in people aged years 7. PsA can significantly impair the person s quality of life 7 and appears to increase the risk of premature mortality by about 60% 10. Existing comparators and treatment The clinical management of PsA is aimed at suppressing joint, tendon and entheseal inflammation 8 and includes physical therapy, and a range of pharmacological treatments including 7, 8 : Non-biologic therapies Analgesics. Corticosteroids. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). DMARDs including methotrexate (MTX), sulfasalazine, gold, anti-malarials and leflunomide. Usually administered within three months of diagnosis to stabilise joint function, either as monotherapies or in combination with biologic agents. Biologic therapies TNF-α inhibitors such as etanercept (Enbrel), infliximab (Remicade) and adalimumab (Humira). Efficacy and safety Trial NCT ; PsA; ustekinumab vs placebo; phase II.

4 Participants and schedule n = 146; adults; active PsA and plaque psoriasis; inadequate response to DMARDs, NSAIDs, anti-tnf agents, or a combination of these. Randomised to ustekinumab (63mg or 90mg) or placebo every week for 4 weeks, then crossed over to placebo or ustekinumab 63 mg for week 12 and 16. Follow-up Active treatment period 16 weeks; then 20 weeks follow-up. Primary ACR20 a at week 12. outcome/s Secondary outcome/s n = 600 (planned); adults; active PsA despite current/previous DMARD/NSAID therapy; if on methotrexate treatment should have started 3 months prior to start of the study. Randomised to ustekinumab 45mg, 90mg or placebo at weeks 0, 4 and every 12 weeks until week 88. Patients who have < 5% improvement at week 16 may be eligible for an increase or change in ustekinumab dosage. Patients randomized to placebo will crossover to receive ustekinumab at weeks 24, 28 and every 12 weeks until week 88. Active treatment period 88 weeks; follow up 12 weeks. ACR20 at week 24; change from baseline in total radiographic scores of the hands and feet.

Key results For ustekinumab and placebo at week 12 respectively: ACR20: 42% vs 14% (95% CI of difference, %; p =0.0002) ACR50 and ACR70: 25% vs 7% and 11% vs 0 PSAI 75: 52% vs 5% (95% CI of difference %; p < ) Target lesion improvement: 60% vs 0%; (p < ) HAQ improvement: 47% vs 22% (p=0.0024) Expected reporting date Adverse effects (AEs) By week 12 AEs were recorded in 61% and 63% of ustekinumab and placebo recipients respectively, including 3 serious AEs with placebo. By week 32, 6 additional AEs events were recorded with ustekinumab. The most frequent AEs were: upper respiratory tract infection, nasopharyngitis and diarrhoea. Study expected to complete in October a ACR: the American College of Rheumatology criteria comprise a core set of six outcome variables for the assessment of clinically important improvement: physical global assessment of disease activity; patient/parent global assessment of overall well-being; functional ability; number of joints with active arthritis; number of joints with limited range of motion; erythrocyte sedimentation rate. ACR20, ACR50, and ACR70 represent a 20%, 50%, and 70% improvement in at least three response criteria (and with no more than one response variable worse by greater than 30%). b PASI 75 represents 75% improvement in psoriasis area and severity index (PASI) scores. 4
