Secukinumab represents the first IL-17A antagonist among the available biologic therapies approved for moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis management. Secukinumab demonstrated greater efficacy over placebo, etanercept and ustekinumab in patients that had limited benefit from non-biologic systemic therapies and phototherapy. Despite standard-of-care systemic therapies being more likely to be cost-effective at this time, a Canadian cost-utility analysis found secukinumab to display benefit in quality-of-life gains in moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis patients, and greater cost-effectiveness when compared to other biologic systemic therapies. Determination of the true economic value of secukinumab amongst the available therapies for moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis will require continued economic evaluation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
