About this study

Official title: Effectiveness of Adalimumab (Humira) in the Treatment of Scalp and Nail Affection in Patients With Moderate to Severe Plaque Psoriasis in Routine Clinical Practice

There is clearly a need for further data on the efficacy of biologic agents in the treatment of nail and scalp psoriasis, especially in the routine clinical setting. A few case reports can be found, but no published data exists from non-interventional studies, such as post-marketing observational studies (PMOS) that reflect routine clinical practice.

The aim of this PMOS is to evaluate the long-term (12-month) efficacy of adalimumab in the treatment of nail and scalp psoriatic lesions in routine dermatologic practice.

Read the detailed description

This is post-marketing observational study (PMOS) in which HUMIRA® is prescribed in the usual manner in accordance with the terms of the local marketing authorization with regards to dose, population and indication, and following the local prescription and/or reimbursement guidance.

Follow-up visits are not strictly scheduled, but rather left to the judgment of each investigator within the 12-month study period for each participant. Five visits are indicated within the 12-month observational period: Baseline and follow-up at 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and at 12 months (Study End).

As nails are not included in the general measures of disease severity (such as Psoriasis Area and Severity Index [PASI]), the Nail Psoriasis Severity Index (NAPSI) will be used to assign a score of nail psoriasis. The scalp, though being involved in the general measures of disease severity (e.g. PASI), represents only 4-5% of the body surface and is therefore poorly represented. Psoriasis Scalp Severity Index (PSSI) will be used to quantify the intensity of scalp psoriasis and its changes during the study. The association between general skin and localized nail and scalp, and changes in quality of life in response to adalimumab therapy will also be examined.

AdalimumabParticipants with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis received adalimumab (Humira®) therapy according to the local product label and prescription/reimbursement guidelines.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percent Change From Baseline in Nail Psoriasis Severity Index (NAPSI) to Month 12

    NAPSI grades nails for both nail matrix psoriasis and nail bed psoriasis. The sum of these two scores is the total score for that nail. Nail matrix psoriasis consists of any of the following: pitting, leukonychia, red spots in the lunula, or nail plate crumbling. Nail bed psoriasis is the presence or absence of onycholysis, splinter hemorrhages, oil drop (salmon patch) discoloration or nail bed hyperkeratosis. Scoring for each is based on the following scale:

    • 0 = none;
    • 1 = present in 1/4 nail quadrants;
    • 2 = present in 2/4 nail quadrants;
    • 3 = present in 3/4 nail quadrants;
    • 4 = present in 4/4 nail quadrants.

    The 2 most affected nails on either hands or feet were evaluated and summed for a score ranging from 0 (no nail psoriasis) to 16 (psoriasis in 4/4 nail quadrants).

    Change from Baseline is presented as a percentage of the Baseline value, calculated as: Month 12 value - Baseline value / Baseline value * 100. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

    Measured: Baseline and Month 12

  2. Percent Change From Baseline in Psoriasis Scalp Severity Index (PSSI) to Month 12

    The PSSI consists of two parts: an assessment of scalp area involved and an assessment of the 3 clinical symptoms erythema, induration and desquamation. Involved scalp area is measured on a scale from 0 (0% of scalp involved) to 6 (90-100% of scalp involved), clinical symptoms are each rated from 0 (absent) to 4 (severest possible). The composite score ranges from 0 (best) to 72 (worst) and is derived from the sum of symptom scores multiplied by the score of involved scalp area.

    Change from Baseline is presented as a percentage of the Baseline value: Month 12 value - Baseline value / Baseline value * 100. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

    Measured: Baseline and Month 12

Secondary outcomes (18)
  1. Change From Baseline in Nail Psoriasis Severity Index (NAPSI)

    NAPSI grades nails for both nail matrix psoriasis and nail bed psoriasis. The sum of these two scores is the total score for that nail.

  2. Percentage of Participants Achieving a Good Clinical Response on Nail Psoriasis

    Good clinical response on nails is defined as ≥ 50% improvement from Baseline in total NAPSI score.

    The NAPSI grades nails for both nail matrix psoriasis and nail bed psoriasis. The sum of these two scores is the total score for that nail. Nail matrix psoriasis consists of any of the following: pitting, leukonychia, red spots in the lunula, or nail plate crumbling. Nail bed psoriasis is the presence or absence of onycholysis, splinter hemorrhages, oil drop (salmon patch) discoloration or nail bed hyperkeratosis. Scoring for each is based on the following scale:

  3. Percentage of Participants Achieving Complete Clearing of Nails

    Complete clearing of nails is defined as a total NAPSI score of zero.

    The NAPSI grades nails for both nail matrix psoriasis and nail bed psoriasis. The sum of these two scores is the total score for that nail. Nail matrix psoriasis consists of any of the following: pitting, leukonychia, red spots in the lunula, or nail plate crumbling. Nail bed psoriasis is the presence or absence of onycholysis, splinter hemorrhages, oil drop (salmon patch) discoloration or nail bed hyperkeratosis. Scoring for each is based on the following scale:
