Popis: | OBJECTIVE In PSO-LONG, long-term proactive management (PAM) of psoriasis with fixed-dose combination calcipotriol 50 µg/g and betamethasone dipropionate 0.5 mg/g (Cal/BD) aerosol foam was superior to conventional reactive management. This post-hoc analysis investigated long-term PAM with Cal/BD foam in PSO-LONG patients who could be more susceptible to corticosteroid-induced hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis suppression. METHODS Efficacy and safety of PAM with Cal/BD foam (twice-weekly) versus reactive management (twice-weekly vehicle foam), with once-daily rescue Cal/BD foam for four weeks following relapse, was assessed in the HPA subgroup (n = 66); patients had moderate-to-severe psoriasis (physician global assessment score ≥3; 10-30% body surface area affected). Primary endpoint was time to first relapse. RESULTS PAM with Cal/BD foam was associated with longer median time to first relapse (111 versus 31 days), reduced risk of first relapse (hazard ratio: 0.49; p = .029), greater proportion of days in remission (17%; p = .001) and reduced rate of relapse (60% reduction; p |
