Golimumab as the First-, Second-, or at Least Third-Line Biologic Agent in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis, Psoriatic Arthritis, or Ankylosing Spondylitis: Post Hoc Analysis of a Noninterventional Study in Germany
2020
Overview
IntroductionWhile golimumab (GLM) has demonstrated efficacy in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), and ankylosing spondylitis (AS) in several randomized clinical trials with biologic-naïve patients, observational data from biologic-experienced patients are sparse. We aimed to assess the effectiveness of GLM used as the first-, second-, or at least third-line biologic agent in RA, PsA, and AS patients in a real-world setting.MethodsPost hoc analysis of the noninterventional, prospective, 24-month GO-NICE study of RA, PsA, and AS patients who initiated GLM 50 mg subcutaneously once monthly in a real-world setting in Germany.ResultsIn 1454 patients with RA, PsA, or AS, GLM was administered as the first-line (n = 305, 286, 292, respectively), second-line (n = 104, 136, 130, respectively), or at least third-line (n = 64, 79, 58, respectively) biologic agent. In RA patients (n = 473), the time since first diagnosis was 9.7, 10.1, and 14.3 years, respectively. The DAS28 score at BL was 5.0, 4.9, and 5.1 in patients using GLM as a first-, second-, and third-line biologic agent, respectively, and dropped significantly in all groups. After 3 months of treatment, 27.5%, 19.5%, and 14.5% of patients were in remission; the corresponding values after 24 months were 45.3%, 50.0%, and 33.3%, respectively. In PsA patients (n = 501), time since fist diagnosis was 12.4, 13.7, and 13.8 years, respectively. Based on PsARC, a response was achieved at 24 months in the first-, second-, and third-line use of GLM in 76.4%, 51.0%, and 50.0% of the patients. In AS patients (n = 480), the time since first diagnosis was 9.4, 9.8, and 12.4 years in patients using GLM as the first-, second-, and at least third-line biologic agent, respectively. After 24 months of treatment, the mean BASDAI scores decreased significantly (p < 0.001 vs. BL) to 2.1, 2.9, and 2.9 in the patients using GLM as the first-, second-, and at least third-line treatment, respectively.ConclusionsGolimumab is an effective treatment in patients with RA, PsA, and AS, irrespective of any pretreatment with biologic agents.Study RegistrationClinicalTrials.gov NCT01313858.
