Data labeled as a primary endpoint were multiplicity controlled for comparisons. All other comparisons were not adjusted for multiplicity; therefore, statistical significance has not been established.
KEEPsAKE 1 (N=964) and KEEPsAKE 2 (N=443) were 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies that evaluated the efficacy and safety of SKYRIZI 150 mg vs placebo over 24 weeks with a long-term, open-label extension for up to an additional 292 weeks. Both studies enrolled adult patients with active psoriatic arthritis. In KEEPsAKE 1, the study population had an inadequate response or intolerance to at least 1 csDMARD, while in KEEPsAKE 2 patients had an inadequate response or intolerance to at least 1 biologic therapy OR to at least 1 csDMARD.1-3
KEEPsAKE 1: csDMARD-IR | ALL DATA IS AS OBSERVED
In an As Observed (AO) analysis, patients with missing data at a specific time are not included, which may enrich the population and increase the response rates.
OLE LIMITATIONS:
In an OLE, there is a potential for enrichment of the
long-term data in remaining patient populations since patients who are unable to tolerate or do not respond to the drug often drop out.

Dr. Schwartzman and Dr. Khattri review the clinical efficacy endpoints from the PsA trials, including ACR20/50/70, ACR components such as patient-reported pain, and enthesitis and dactylitis, then conclude with a discussion of SKYRIZI's safety profile across 2 indications.

SKYRIZI VS OTEZLA® (apremilast)
In adult patients with moderate Ps7
Psoriatic Arthritis: SKYRIZI is indicated for the treatment of active psoriatic arthritis in adults.
Plaque Psoriasis: SKYRIZI is indicated for the treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis in adults who are candidates for systemic therapy or phototherapy.
Important Safety Information
Hypersensitivity Reactions
SKYRIZI® (risankizumab-rzaa) is contraindicated in patients with a history of serious hypersensitivity reaction to risankizumab-rzaa or any of the excipients. Serious hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, have been reported with the use of SKYRIZI. If a serious hypersensitivity reaction occurs, discontinue SKYRIZI and initiate appropriate therapy immediately.
Infection
SKYRIZI may increase the risk of infection. Do not initiate treatment with SKYRIZI in patients with a clinically important active infection until it resolves or is adequately treated.
In patients with a chronic infection or a history of recurrent infection, consider the risks and benefits prior to prescribing SKYRIZI. Instruct patients to seek medical advice if signs or symptoms of clinically important infection occur. If a patient develops such an infection or is not responding to standard therapy, closely monitor and discontinue SKYRIZI until the infection resolves.
Tuberculosis (TB)
Prior to initiating treatment with SKYRIZI, evaluate for TB infection and consider treatment in patients with latent or active TB for whom an adequate course of treatment cannot be confirmed. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of active TB during and after SKYRIZI treatment. Do not administer SKYRIZI to patients with active TB.
Hepatotoxicity in Treatment of Crohn’s Disease
Drug-induced liver injury was reported in a patient with Crohn’s disease who was hospitalized for a rash during induction dosing of SKYRIZI. For the treatment of Crohn’s disease, evaluate liver enzymes and bilirubin at baseline and during induction (12 weeks); monitor thereafter according to routine patient management. Consider an alternate treatment for patients with evidence of liver cirrhosis. Interrupt treatment if drug-induced liver injury is suspected, until this diagnosis is excluded. Instruct your patient to seek immediate medical attention if they experience symptoms suggestive of hepatic dysfunction.
Administration of Vaccines
Avoid use of live vaccines in patients treated with SKYRIZI. Medications that interact with the immune system may increase the risk of infection following administration of live vaccines. Prior to initiating SKYRIZI, complete all age-appropriate vaccinations according to current immunization guidelines.
Adverse Reactions
Most common (≥1%) adverse reactions associated with SKYRIZI in plaque psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis include upper respiratory infections, headache, fatigue, injection site reactions, and tinea infections.
In psoriatic arthritis phase 3 trials, the incidence of hepatic events was higher with SKYRIZI compared to placebo.
Most common (>3%) adverse reactions associated with SKYRIZI in Crohn’s disease are upper respiratory infections, headache, and arthralgia in induction and arthralgia, abdominal pain, injection site reactions, anemia, pyrexia, back pain, arthropathy, and urinary tract infection in maintenance.
Lipid Elevations: Increases from baseline and increases relative to placebo were observed at Week 4 and remained stable to Week 12 in patients treated with SKYRIZI in Crohn’s disease.
Dosage Forms and Strengths: SKYRIZI is available in a 150 mg/mL prefilled syringe and pen, and a 600 mg/10 mL single-dose vial for intravenous infusion.

KEEPsAKE 1: csDMARD-IR. KEEPsAKE 2: Mixed population (50% csDMARD-IR, 50% Bio-IR)
KEEPsAKE 1 (N=964) and KEEPsAKE 2 (N=443) were 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SKYRIZI (150 mg) vs placebo over 24 weeks with an open-label extension for up to an additional 204 weeks in adult patients with active psoriatic arthritis.
In both studies, patients were randomized to receive SKYRIZI 150 mg or placebo at Weeks 0, 4, and 16. Starting from Week 28, all patients received SKYRIZI every 12 weeks. 59.6% of patients from both studies were receiving concomitant MTX, 11.6% were receiving concomitant non-biologic DMARDs other than MTX, and 28.9% were receiving SKYRIZI monotherapy.
Patients in KEEPsAKE 1 previously experienced an inadequate response, intolerance, or contraindication to ≥1 csDMARD. Patients in KEEPsAKE 2 were bio-IR and/or csDMARD-IR.
In both studies, similar responses were seen regardless of concomitant non-biologic DMARD use, number of prior non-biologic DMARDs, age, gender, race, and BMI. In KEEPsAKE 2, responses were seen regardless of prior biologic therapy.
*The first n-value is for KEEPsAKE 1; the second n-value is for KEEPsAKE 2.
†At Week 16, patients classified as nonresponders (defined as not achieving at least a 20% improvement in either or both tender joint count and swollen joint count at both Week 12 and Week 16 compared to baseline) had the option to add or modify rescue concomitant medications/therapy. Starting at Week 36, patients classified as nonresponders were discontinued from study drug.
‡To maintain the blind to the original treatment at Week 24, patients randomized to placebo received blinded risankizumab 150 mg, and patients randomized to risankizumab received blinded placebo.

ACTIVE COMPARATOR
The ustekinumab used as a biologic active control in UltIMMa-1 and UltIMMa-2 was sourced from the European Union. Comparability between non–US-approved ustekinumab and US-approved ustekinumab has not been established. See Full Prescribing Information for US-approved ustekinumab, which reflects different rates of adverse events from those observed for EU-approved ustekinumab in the UltIMMa trials.
Safety analyses were performed using a safety analysis set (all patients who received ≥1 dose of study drug). No safety data for adalimumab or placebo were obtained beyond Week 16.
aIncludes data from UltIMMa-1, UltIMMa-2, IMMhance, and IMMvent studies.
bIncludes data from UltIMMa-1, UltIMMa-2, and Phase 2 study 1311.2.
cSKYRIZI (150 mg), adalimumab, and placebo were only evaluated in Phase 3 trials; the ustekinumab group includes Phase 3 patients (N=199) in addition to Phase 2 patients (n=40).

†At Week 16, subjects classified as nonresponders (defined as not achieving at least a 20% improvement in either or both tender joint count and swollen joint count at both Week 12 and Week 16 compared to baseline) had the option to add or modify rescue concomitant medications/therapy. Starting at Week 36, subjects classified as nonresponders were discontinued from study drug.
‡To maintain the blind to the original treatment at Week 24 subjects randomized to placebo received blinded SKYRIZI 150 mg, and subjects randomized to SKYRIZI received blinded placebo.
KEEPsAKE 1: csDMARD-IR. KEEPsAKE 2: Mixed population (~50% csDMARD-IR, ~50% Bio-IR)
csDMARD-IR population: Inadequate response (lack of efficacy after minimum 12-week duration of therapy) or intolerance to previous or current treatment with at least 1 csDMARD at maximally tolerated dose; Bio-IR population: Inadequate response (lack of efficacy after minimum 12-week duration of therapy) or intolerance to treatment with 1 or 2 biologic therapies intended to treat PsA
KEEPsAKE 1 (N=964) and KEEPsAKE 2 (N=443) were 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies that evaluated the efficacy and safety of SKYRIZI (150 mg) vs placebo over 24 weeks with an open-label extension for up to an additional 292 weeks in adult patients with active psoriatic arthritis.
In both studies, subjects were randomized to receive SKYRIZI 150 mg or placebo at Weeks 0, 4, and 16. Starting at Week 28, all subjects received SKYRIZI every 12 weeks. 59.6% of subjects from both studies received concomitant MTX, 11.6% received concomitant nonbiologic DMARDs other than MTX, and 28.9% received SKYRIZI monotherapy.
In both studies, similar responses were seen regardless of concomitant nonbiologic DMARD use, number of prior nonbiologic DMARDs, age, gender, race, and BMI.
In KEEPsAKE 2, responses were seen regardless of prior biologic therapy.
In KEEPsAKE 1, bilateral radiographs of hands and feet were included at screening, baseline, Week 24, Week 52, Week 100, and Week 148.
