Differential effects of secukinumab vs. ustekinumab for treatment of psoriasis on quality of life, work productivity and activity impairment: a structural equation modelling analysis

Abstract: The results underscore the important role of both PASI response and reduction in symptoms on improvements in health-related quality of life and work and daily activity in favour of secukinumab vs. ustekinumab.

“…Using the two main disease symptoms, PASI and itch, as the mediators, the mediation analysis showed that both early improvement in itch and PASI scores played a role in improving patient's quality-of-life at Weeks 4 and 12, with improvement in itch playing a more dominant role than PASI score. Similar results were shown previously in patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis (6, 10, 11) using a single mediator (6) or more complex models with several factors including PASI, itch, pain, scaling (11). There were limitations in this mediation analysis.…”

“…There are two arguments underpinning the feasibility of this alternative scoring formula. Firstly, in a recent study, Stull et al . performed structural equation modelling and showed that in patients with psoriasis, the symptoms of psoriasis first affect the symptoms and feelings subscale, which then has an impact on the remaining five subscales.…”

“…Associations between improvements in PASI score and either itching or HRQoL exist but do not reach levels indicating very high correlation (ie, a correlation coefficient [0.9). 34 Itching may be an even stronger determinant of patient-perceived quality of life than PASI score is. 35 Therefore, the attributes evaluated here can be considered in the same conjoint analysis.…”
