| Abstract: | Objective: In patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) initiating secukinumab, we aimed to identify baseline (treatment start) predictors of achieving low disease activity (LDA) after 6 months, as measured by Axial Spondyloarthritis Disease Activity Score using C-reactive protein (ASDAS-CRP) and Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), as well as treatment continuation after 12 months. Methods: From 11 European registries, patients with axSpA, who initiated secukinumab treatment in routine care, with available data on 6-month ASDAS and BASDAI assessments were included. Logistic regression analyses on multiply imputed baseline data were performed; potential baseline predictors included demographic, diagnosis, lifestyle, clinical and patient-reported variables. Results: In a pooled cohort of 1,174 patients with axSpA, 5 of 19 potential assessed variables were mutually predictive for achieving LDA by ASDAS-CRP and BASDAI: higher Physician Global Assessment score, non-current smoking, lack of prior exposure to biologic/targeted synthetic Disease-Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs, lower Health Assessment Questionnaire scores and BASDAI scores. Moreover, radiographic axSpA and CRP ≤ 10mg/L were associated with achieving ASDAS-CRP LDA; HLA-B27 positivity and history of psoriasis with achieving BASDAI LDA; while earlier time of secukinumab initiation (2015-2017) was associated with treatment continuation. Conclusion: In this European real-world study of patients with axSpA initiating secukinumab, predictors of achieving LDA by ASDAS-CRP and BASDAI at 6 months and remaining on treatment at 12 months included both clinical, patient-reported and lifestyle factors, underscoring the complex mechanisms of real-world drug effectiveness. |
