  4. Adalimumab + Methotrexate & Intra-articular Glucocorticoid in DMARD-naïve, Early RA • Objective: To assess the efficacy and safety of adding adalimumab (ADA) to methotrexate (MTX) and intra-articular glucocorticoid • Subjects: 180 DMARD-naïve RA patients, disease duration < 6 months • Methodology: • Subjects were randomized to MTX 7.5 mg weekly + ADA 40 mg every other week or MTX + placebo • All patients had triamcinolone injections into swollen joints at weeks 0, 4, 8, and 12, then every third month up to 12 months • If DAS28 > 3.2 at 3 months, sulfasalazine & hydroxychloroquine were added • Assessments: DAS28 (CRP), SDAI and ACR/EULAR remission criteria • Primary outcome: Frequency of DAS28 (CRP) < 3.2 Adapted from Hørslev-Petersen K, et al: Presented at ACR 2011; Poster #394

  5. Adalimumab + Methotrexate & Intra-articular Glucocorticoid in DMARD-naïve, Early RA: Baseline Characteristics Adapted from Hørslev-Petersen K, et al: Presented at ACR 2011; Poster #394

  9. Adalimumab + Methotrexate & Intra-articularGlucocorticoid in DMARD-naïve, Early RA: Conclusions • In DMARD-naïve patients with early RA, excellent disease control was achieved by a targeted step-up strategy using methotrexate and intra-articular glucocorticoid injections • Addition of adalimumab to methotrexate and intra-articular glucocorticoid improved the remission rates considerably • The treatments were well tolerated Adapted from Hørslev-Petersen K, et al: Presented at ACR 2011; Poster #394

  10. Adalimumab + Methotrexate & Intra-articular Glucocorticoid in DMARD-naïve, Early RA Commentary from International Literature Search in Rheumatology’s Canadian Editorial Panel • This study used methotrexate doses of 20 mg per week, which reflects current practice in Canada; the use of intra-articular injections also applies to rheumatology standard-of-care in Canada • This study is, therefore, very applicable in our context • The only issue is availability of biologics in very early disease, but this study helps to corroborate the need for early treatment with biologics in RA Commentary on Hørslev-Petersen K, et al: Presented at ACR 2011; Poster #394

  11. One Year Efficacy and Safety Results of a Phase II Trial of Secukinumab in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis Genovese MC, et al: Presented at ACR 2011; Poster #401

  12. Phase II Study of Secukinumab in Rheumatoid Arthritis • Objective: To assess the efficacy and safety of secukinumab in patients with active RA despite stable MTX • Subjects: 237 adults with RA, taking MTX therapy • Methodology: • Subjects were randomized to receive monthly s.c. secukinumab25 mg, 75 mg, 150 mg, 300 mg or placebo • After Week 16, dose adjustments were made if necessary and placebo patients were switched to active therapy • Primary endpoint: ACR 20 at week 16 (previously reported) • Key efficacy measures evaluated in this analysis: Long-term results from week 24 to week 52 • No placebo arm during this period: all patients were receiving secukinumab Adapted from Genovese MC, et al: Presented at ACR 2011; Poster #401

  13.

  17. Phase II Study of Secukinumab in Rheumatoid Arthritis: Conclusions • The primary efficacy endpoint was not achieved in this trial • ACR20 responders at Week 16 experienced maintenance or improvement of efficacy through week 52 with highest efficacy in patients who remained on secukinumab 150 mg throughout the trial • DAS28 and HAQ scores improved through week 52 in responders who remained on secukinumab 150 mg • Patients on secukinumab who were non-responders at week 18 did not gain much additional efficacy benefit through week 52 after dose escalation • Infection was the most frequently reported adverse event, with nasopharyngitis and pharyngitis reported most commonly • The rate of adverse events, including infections, was not dose dependent Adapted from Genovese MC, et al: Presented at ACR 2011; Poster #401

  18. Phase II Study of Secukinumab in Rheumatoid Arthritis Commentary from International Literature Search in Rheumatology’s Canadian Editorial Panel • The success of biologic agents for the treatment of RA over the past 10 years has generated ongoing research to find drugs that target new pathways • A Phase 2 study previously reported that targeting IL-17 with secukinumab did not achieve its primary endpoint at week 16 • This paper reports further data up to 1 year from that study and shows that although the group that did respond maintained their response, those who were non-responders did not improve with dose escalation • As reported elsewhere at this meeting, there are positive data treating spondyloarthropathies with this agent, particularly ankylosing spondylitis, but it remains to be seen whether targeting IL-17 will turn out to be a useful addition to treat RA Commentary on Genovese MC, et al: Presented at ACR 2011; Poster #401

  19. Subcutaneous (SC) Abatacept (ABA) Versus Intravenous (IV) ABA in Patients (pts) with Rheumatoid Arthritis: Long-Term Data From the ACQUIRE (Abatacept Comparison of Sub[QU]cutaneous versus Intravenous in Inadequate Responders to MethotrexatE) Trial Genovese MC, et al: Presented at ACR 2011; Poster #402

  20. Subcutaneous vs. Intravenous Abataceptin RA: Long-term Data (ACQUIRE study) • Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the subcutaneous (SC) formulation of abatacept compared to the intravenous (IV) formulation over 24 months • Subjects:1372 patients from the ACQUIRE study • Methodology: Long-term extension (LTE) study of the ACQUIRE trial • In the initial 6-month study, SC abatacept (125 mg/week) and IV abatacept showed comparable safety and efficacy • After 6 months, patients could enter the LTE and receive SC abatacept 125 mg/week for an additional 18 months • LTE assessments: safety, immunogenicity, efficacy Adapted from Genovese MC, et al: Presented at ACR 2011; Poster #402

  33. Tofacitinib vs. Adalimumab or Placebo in RA Patients on Methotrexate: Conclusions • Tofacitinib demonstrated rapid, significant, and clinically meaningful reductions in signs and symptoms of RA and improvements in physical function • No new tofacitinib safety signals were detected • Efficacy results with tofacitinib and adalimumab (both given on MTX background) were similar Adapted from van Vollenhoven RF, et al: Presented at ACR 2011; Poster #408

  34. Tofacitinib vs. Adalimumab or Placebo in RA Patients on Methotrexate Commentary from International Literature Search in Rheumatology’s Canadian Editorial Panel • Tofacitinib will be a useful addition to our armamentarium for the treatment of RA, especially as it is an oral medication • The SAEs are, however, of some concern; larger studies should be carried out to further assess this Commentary on van Vollenhoven RF, et al: Presented at ACR 2011; Poster #408
