Deucravacitinib in Plaque Psoriasis: 3-Year Safety and Efficacy Results From the Phase 3 POETYK PSO-1 and PSO-2 Trials
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Introduction: Deucravacitinib, an oral, selective, allosteric tyrosine kinase 2 inhibitor, is approved in the US, EU, and other countries for the treatment of adults with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis who are candidates for systemic therapy. Deucravacitinib was superior to placebo and apremilast in the POETYK PSO-1 (NCT03624127) and PSO-2 (NCT03611751) parent trials in moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. The POETYK long-term extension (LTE; NCT04036435) trial enrolled patients who completed PSO-1/PSO-2. We report safety and efficacy of deucravacitinib for up to 3 years (Week 148; through cutoff 6/15/2022). Methods: PSO-1/PSO-2 randomized patients 1:2:1 to oral placebo, deucravacitinib 6 mg once daily (QD), or apremilast twice daily. At Week 52, patients enrolled in the LTE received open-label deucravacitinib 6 mg QD. Safety was evaluated in patients who received ≥1 dose of deucravacitinib using exposure-adjusted incidence rate per 100 person-years (EAIR/PY). Efficacy outcomes (≥75%/≥90% reduction from baseline in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index [PASI 75/90]; static Physician Global Assessment score of 0 [clear] or 1 [almost clear] with a ≥2-point improvement from baseline [sPGA 0/1]) were analyzed using modified nonresponder imputation (mNRI) in patients who received continuous deucravacitinib treatment from Day 1 of the parent trial and were treated in the LTE. Results: Of 1519 patients who received ≥1 dose of deucravacitinib (3294.3 PY cumulative exposure), 513 patients received continuous deucravacitinib treatment from Day 1 in PSO-1/PSO-2 and were treated in the LTE. EAIRs/100 PY were comparable, or decreased, between the 2-year and 3-year cumulative periods, respectively, for AEs (154.4, 144.8), serious AEs (6.1, 5.5), discontinuations due to AEs (2.8, 2.4), herpes zoster (0.7, 0.6), malignancies (0.9, 0.9), major adverse cardiovascular events (0.4, 0.3), venous thromboembolism (0.1, 0.1), and deaths (0.4, 0.3). Response rates were maintained at Week 148 by mNRI (PASI 75, 73.2%; PASI 90, 48.1%; sPGA 0/1, 54.1%). Conclusion: Deucravacitinib maintained a consistent safety profile and durable efficacy for up to 3 years.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
