    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: Effective, well-tolerated oral psoriasis treatments are needed. OBJECTIVE: To compare the efficacy and safety of deucravacitinib, an oral, selective, allosteric tyrosine kinase 2 inhibitor, versus placebo and apremilast in adults with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. METHODS: Participants were randomized 2:1:1 to deucravacitinib 6 mg every day (n = 332), placebo (n = 166), or apremilast 30 mg twice a day (n = 168) in the 52-week, double-blinded, phase 3 POETYK PSO-1 trial (NCT03624127). Coprimary end points included response rates for ≥75% reduction from baseline in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI 75) and static Physician's Global Assessment score of 0 or 1 (sPGA 0/1) with deucravacitinib versus placebo at week 16. RESULTS: At week 16, response rates were significantly higher with deucravacitinib versus placebo or apremilast for PASI 75 (194 [58.4%] vs 21 [12.7%] vs 59 [35.1%]; P < .0001) and sPGA 0/1 (178 [53.6%] vs 12 [7.2%] vs 54 [32.1%]; P < .0001). Efficacy improved beyond week 16 and was maintained through week 52. Adverse event rates with deucravacitinib were similar to those with placebo and apremilast. LIMITATIONS: One-year duration, limited racial diversity. CONCLUSION: Deucravacitinib was superior to placebo and apremilast across multiple efficacy end points and was well tolerated in moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.
