Popis: BackgroundUpadacitinib (UPA) was shown to be safe and effective through 2 years in patients (pts) with active ankylosing spondylitis (AS) naïve to biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) in the pivotal phase 2/3 SELECT-AXIS 1 trial.1,2ObjectivesTo assess the efficacy and safety of UPA in pts with active AS with an inadequate response (IR) to bDMARDs.MethodsSELECT-AXIS 2 (NCT04169373) was conducted under a master protocol and includes two separate studies (one for AS bDMARD-IR and one for non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis [nr-axSpA]). The AS bDMARD-IR study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo (PBO)-controlled, phase 3 trial that enrolled adults ≥18 years with AS who met modified New York criteria, had BASDAI and pt’s assessment of total back pain scores ≥4 (numeric rating scale 0–10) at study entry, and had an IR to one or two bDMARDs (TNF inhibitor or IL-17 inhibitor). Pts were randomized 1:1 to receive oral UPA 15 mg once daily (QD) or PBO during the 14-week (wk) double-blind treatment period. The primary endpoint was ASAS40 response at wk 14. Multiplicity-controlled secondary endpoints evaluated at wk 14 were improvements from baseline in disease activity (ASDAS [CRP], ASDAS ID [ResultsAll 420 randomized pts with active AS received assigned treatment (UPA 15 mg, n=211; PBO, n=209); 409 (97%) received study drug through wk 14. Baseline demographic and disease characteristics were generally similar between treatment groups and reflective of an active AS bDMARD-IR population (74% male; mean age 42.4 years; mean disease duration 7.7 years; 83% HLA-B27 positive; mean BASDAI 6.8). Significantly more pts achieved the primary endpoint of ASAS40 response at wk 14 with UPA vs PBO (45% vs 18%; PP≤0.05). All multiplicity-controlled secondary endpoints met statistical significance for UPA vs PBO at wk 14 across multiple clinical domains of AS (PConclusionUPA 15 mg QD was significantly more effective than PBO over 14 wks of treatment in pts with active AS and IR to bDMARDs. No new safety risks were identified with UPA compared with its known safety profile.3,4 These findings are consistent with and complementary to those of SELECT-AXIS 1 (bDMARD-naïve AS population),1,2 and support the use of UPA in pts with active AS, including those who had a previous IR to bDMARD therapy.References[1]van der Heijde D, et al.
