Tildrakizumab 200 mg: a step forward in psoriasis treatment with added metabolic benefits

Article

Author: Rivieccio, Antonia ; Campione, Elena ; Bianchi, Luca ; Artosi, Fabio ; Lanna, Caterina ; Cattani, Chiara

BACKGROUND:

Psoriasis is frequently associated with metabolic syndrome and an increased cardiovascular risk. Tildrakizumab, an IL-23 inhibitor, may affect metabolic parameters in addition to improving skin severity.

AIM OF THE STUDY:

To evaluate the impact of increasing tildrakizumab dosage on lipid and glucose levels in psoriasis patients with metabolic syndrome who showed a partial response to the standard 100 mg dose.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:

Twenty-five patients with psoriasis and metabolic syndrome were enrolled in a 52-week prospective study. After 16 weeks of treatment with 100 mg tildrakizumab, patients with an absolute PASI >2 were switched to 200 mg. Total cholesterol, LDL, and glucose were measured at baseline, week 16, week 40, alongside PASI and DLQI.

RESULTS:

At baseline, mean total cholesterol, LDL, and glucose were 190.7, 120.1, and 99.4 mg/dL, respectively. The 100 mg dose did not result in significant metabolic changes at week 16. However, switching to 200 mg tildrakizumab led to significant reductions at week 40 in total cholesterol (178.3 mg/dL), LDL (110.1 mg/dL), and glucose (87.2 mg/dL) (all p < 0.05). Significant improvements in PASI (1.2) and DLQI (0.2) were also observed (p < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONS:

Increasing the tildrakizumab dose to 200 mg in partial responders with metabolic syndrome significantly improved both skin severity and metabolic profiles, lowering cholesterol, LDL, and glucose. These findings suggest a possible dose-dependent effect of tildrakizumab on metabolic parameters through enhanced IL-23 inhibition.

Interleukin-23p19 inhibitors for the treatment of moderate-to-severe psoriasis: an expert opinion of real-world evidence studies in Europe

Review

Author: Ständer, S. ; Thaçi, D.

Background: Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting about 2% of the global population, with moderate-to-severe forms requiring systemic treatment for successful disease management. By targeting the interleukin (IL)-23p19 subunit of IL-23, the master cytokine of psoriasis pathogenesis, guselkumab, tildrakizumab, and risankizumab offer improved risk-benefit profiles.Objective: While randomized clinical trials (RCTs) provide controlled data, real-world evidence (RWE) offers insights into the performance of these therapies in diverse patient populations, including those with comorbidities or difficult-to-treat areas affected. With RWE on these inhibitors constantly emerging, a comprehensive overview and expert interpretation are essential for providing key insights into psoriasis management in clinical practice.Methods: This review, therefore, examined RWE on the effectiveness and safety of IL-23p19 inhibitors compared to their pivotal RCTs.Results: Despite some gaps between RCT and RWE outcomes, particularly in underrepresented subpopulations, IL-23p19 inhibitors show strong effectiveness and favorable safety across both settings in the short- and especially in the long term, accompanied by an improvement in health-related quality of life and reduction of the main symptoms.Conclusion: Altogether, these factors make these medicines ideal treatment options. Future research should focus on improving patient-reported outcomes, specifically addressing psychological and quality-of-life aspects, to further optimize psoriasis management.

INTRODUCTION:

Psoriasis is a chronic, systemic inflammatory disease with significant physical and psychosocial burden. Advances in understanding the pathogenesis of psoriasis, particularly the role of interleukin (IL)23/Th17 axis, have led to the development of selective drugs targeting these cytokines. Among these, IL23 inhibitors (guselkumab, risankizumab, and tildrakizumab), represent the most recent class of biologic drugs approved for the management of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. Since their approval, real-life data on the use of anti-IL23 have confirmed their high efficacy, durability, and favorable safety profile.

AREAS COVERED:

This narrative review summarizes real-world data on the effectiveness, also in difficult-to-treat areas, safety, and drug survival of IL23 inhibitors in psoriasis.

EXPERT OPINION:

Real-world evidence consistently confirms the strong efficacy, favorable safety profile, and long-term treatment durability of IL23 inhibitors across various patient subgroups, including those with comorbidities, prior biologic failures, and the involvement of difficult-to-treat areas. IL23 inhibitors have become key components of the therapeutic arsenal in psoriasis, and their performance in real-world settings continues to support their widespread adoption in clinical practice.

TREMFYA® (guselkumab) receives European Commission approval for adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis, strengthening Johnson & Johnson’s leadership in inflammatory bowel disease

The first a approved fully-human, dual-acting interleukin-23 (IL-23) inhibitor in moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis, 1,2,3,4,5 guselkumab showed statistically higher rates of endoscopic normalisation b at Week 44 compared with placebo. 2,6,7,8,9 Guselkumab is now approved for the treatment of ulcerative colitis in addition to existing indications of plaque psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis in the European Union. 2 BEERSE, Belgium I April 25, 2025 I Johnson & Johnson today announced that the European Commission (EC) has approved a Marketing Authorisation (MA) for TREMFYA ® (guselkumab) for the treatment of adult patients with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC) who had an inadequate response, lost response, or were intolerant to either conventional therapy or a biologic treatment. 2 UC is a chronic disease of the large intestine, also known as the colon, in which the lining of the colon becomes inflamed. 10 Guselkumab is the first a approved fully-human, dual-acting IL-23p19 subunit inhibitor that blocks IL-23 and binds to CD64 c , a receptor on cells that produce IL-23. 1,2,3,4,5,11 IL-23 is a cytokine secreted by activated monocyte/macrophages and dendritic cells that is known to be a driver of immune-mediated diseases, d including UC. 11 “Treatment with guselkumab led to significant improvement in the chronic symptoms of ulcerative colitis with the capability of normalising the appearance of the intestinal lining,” said Laurent Peyrin-Biroulet, M.D., Ph.D., Head of the Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) Unit at Nancy University Hospital in France and study investigator. “This approval represents a significant advancement in managing this chronic inflammatory disease.” The EC approval is supported by data from the QUASAR programme, which consists of the Phase 2b induction dose-ranging study and the Phase 3 induction and maintenance studies, evaluating the efficacy and safety of guselkumab in adult patients with moderately to severely active UC who had an inadequate response, lost response, or were intolerant to either conventional therapy or a biologic treatment. 2,6,7,8,9 Highlights from QUASAR showed: 2,7 The safety results were consistent with the known safety profile of guselkumab in approved indications for psoriasis (Pso) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA). 2 “There is significant need for new ulcerative colitis therapies that offer meaningful improvements in symptoms and the promise of remission – both overall clinical remission and visible healing of the colon through endoscopic normalisation,” 7,12 said Mark Graham, Senior Director, Therapeutic Area Lead, Immunology, J&J Innovative Medicine EMEA. “This approval builds on our sustained efforts to help improve the quality of life of patients, which can be significantly impacted from both a physical and mental health perspective. We look forward to seeing guselkumab continue to raise the bar of efficacy and become the new standard of care in the treatment of UC.” 7 For the treatment of UC, guselkumab is administered as a 200 mg induction dose intravenously at weeks 0, 4, and 8. 2 The recommended maintenance dosage is 100 mg administered by SC injection at week 16, and every 8 weeks (q8w) thereafter. Alternatively, for patients who do not show adequate therapeutic benefit to induction treatment according to clinical judgement, a maintenance dose of 200 mg administered by subcutaneous injection starting at Week 12 and every 4 weeks (q4w), may be considered. 2 This EC approval marks the third indication approved for guselkumab in the European Union (EU), 2 which builds on Johnson & Johnson’s nearly 30-year legacy of immunology innovation. Guselkumab first received approval in the EU in November 2017 for the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis in adults who are candidates for systemic therapy 1 and received subsequent approval in November 2020 for the treatment of active psoriatic arthritis in adult patients who have had an inadequate response or who have been intolerant to a prior disease-modifying antirheumatic drug therapy. 13 The EC is also currently reviewing the positive CHMP opinion to expand MA for guselkumab for the treatment of adult patients with moderately to severely active Crohn’s disease. The EC Decision is expected later this year. Editor’s Notes: a) Guselkumab was the first IL-23 inhibitor to be approved in November 2017 for first-line treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. 1,2,3,4,5 b) Also known as endoscopic remission. It is defined as a Mayo Endoscopic Subscore (MES) of 0. 2,14 c) CD64+ cells are the predominant source of IL-23 in IBD. Cells not expressing CD64 may also contribute to IL-23 production but to a lesser extent. 15,16 d) Based on in vitro studies in an inflammatory monocyte model. 15 e) Clinical remission was defined as a Mayo stool frequency subscore of 0 or 1 and not increased from induction baseline, a Mayo rectal bleeding subscore of 0, and a Mayo endoscopy subscore of 0 or 1 with no friability present on the endoscopy. 2,7 ABOUT THE QUASAR PROGRAMME ( EudraCT 2018-004002-25 ) 6 QUASAR is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group, multicentre, seamless Phase 2b/3 programme designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of guselkumab, a selective IL-23 inhibitor, in adult patients with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis who experienced an inadequate response or who demonstrate intolerance to conventional therapy (e.g., thiopurines or corticosteroids), other biologics and/or JAK inhibitors (i.e., tumor necrosis factor [TNF]-alpha antagonists, vedolizumab, and/or JAK inhibitors (tofacitinib)). 7 QUASAR includes a Phase 2b dose-ranging induction study, a confirmatory Phase 3 induction study, and a Phase 3 randomised withdrawal maintenance study, through a total of five years. 7,14 Efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, and biomarkers are assessed at specified time points. 6 Full results are available in The Lancet . 7 ABOUT ULCERATIVE COLITIS Ulcerative colitis is a chronic disease of the large intestine, also known as the colon, in which the lining of the colon becomes inflamed and develops tiny open sores, or ulcers, that produce pus and mucus. 10 It is the result of the immune system’s overactive response. 10 Symptoms vary but may typically include loose and more urgent bowel movements, rectal bleeding or bloody stool, persistent diarrhoea, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, weight loss, and fatigue. 17 Ulcerative colitis patients also have increased rates of depression. 18 ABOUT GUSELKUMAB Developed by Johnson & Johnson, guselkumab is the first approved fully-human, dual-acting IL-23p19 subunit inhibitor that blocks IL-23 and binds to CD64, a receptor on cells that produce IL-23. 1,2,3,4.5,11 Findings for dual-acting are limited to in vitro studies and the clinical significance of this finding is not known. 15 Guselkumab is approved in the EU for the treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis (Pso) in adults who are candidates for systemic therapy and for the treatment of active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) in adult patients who have had an inadequate response or who have been intolerant to a prior disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug therapy. 2 It is also approved in the U.S, 19 Canada, 20 Japan 21 and a number of other countries for the treatment of adults with moderate-to-severe Pso who are candidates for injections or pills (systemic therapy) or phototherapy (treatment using ultraviolet light) and for the treatment of adult patients with active PsA.

Music Icon Art Garfunkel Opens Up About His Experience with Psoriasis for The First Time in Partnership with Sun Pharma

8X Grammy Award-winning artist and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee reveals his experience with ILUMYA®(tildrakizumab-asmn) as part of the "I LUV YA for The Long Haul" campaign. PRINCETON, N.J., April 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Sun Pharma announced its partnership with music icon and ILUMYA® (tildrakizumab-asmn) patient, Art Garfunkel, as he shares his story of living with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis in-depth for the first time publicly. Art, who was named one of Rolling Stone's "100 Greatest Singers of All Time," launched his career in the acclaimed duo "Simon & Garfunkel." Through the "I LUV YA for The Long Haul" campaign, Art joins a community of ILUMYA patients shedding light on the emotional toll of psoriasis and empowering others living with the condition to find the best treatment for them. While nearly 8 million Americans live with plaque psoriasis, its impact is often unseen or covered up.1 Art, whose music has touched millions worldwide, lived silently with his psoriasis—until now. "With support from my wife, Kim, and a treatment I trust, I am finally ready to give my history with psoriasis a voice," said Art. "After struggling for decades, I finally started ILUMYA about two years ago, and experiencing clearer skin has helped me regain my confidence. I am excited to share my story as part of the I LUV YA campaign in the hope that it will encourage others to find the right treatment for them." The "I LUV YA for The Long Haul," originally launched in May 2024, highlights the emotional impact psoriasis can have on a patient's life and how support – whether that be from a doctor, friend, or family member – can help navigate the challenges of managing their condition. The multi-part video series highlights real-life patient stories, including Art and how his wife, Kim, provided that support for him. "We are so honored to partner with Art Garfunkel to share his ILUMYA story and to bring greater awareness to the impact psoriasis has beyond the physical symptoms," said Maureen Shannon, Head of Biologics Marketing at Sun Pharma. "Art's music has impacted millions and his experience, shared for the first time, is sure to leave a lasting impression." To learn more about Art Garfunkel's experience and to learn more about ILUMYA as a treatment option, visit ILUMYA.com/ILuvYa. About Plaque Psoriasis Plaque psoriasis is a chronic, autoimmune disease that results in an overactive immune system and causes inflammation in the body, leading to symptoms like plaques, redness and flakes. It is estimated that nearly 8 million Americans live with plaque psoriasis.1 In plaque psoriasis, skin cells grow more rapidly than normal, rising to the surface of the skin in days rather than weeks. Life with plaque psoriasis can also be more than the physical symptoms – there can be an emotional impact as well. About ILUMYA (tildrakizumab-asmn) ILUMYA (tildrakizumab-asmn) is a humanized lgG1/k monoclonal antibody designed to selectively bind to the p19 subunit of interleukin-23 (IL-23) and inhibit its interaction with the IL-23 receptor, leading to inhibition of the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. ILUMYA is indicated for the treatment of adults with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis who are candidates for systemic therapy or phototherapy, in the United States. ILUMYA has also been approved for moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis in Australia and Japan, and under the brand name ILUMETRI® in Europe, where it is marketed by Almirall. INDICATIONS AND USAGE ILUMYA (tildrakizumab-asmn) is indicated for the treatment of adults with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis who are candidates for systemic therapy or phototherapy. CONTRAINDICATIONS ILUMYA is contraindicated in patients with a previous serious hypersensitivity reaction to tildrakizumab or to any of the excipients. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Hypersensitivity Cases of angioedema and urticaria occurred in ILUMYA-treated subjects in clinical trials. If a serious allergic reaction occurs, discontinue ILUMYA immediately and initiate appropriate therapy. Infections ILUMYA may increase the risk of infection. Treatment with ILUMYA should not be initiated in patients with a clinically important active infection until the infection resolves or is adequately treated. Consider the risks and benefits of treatment prior to prescribing ILUMYA in patients with a chronic infection or a history of recurrent infection. Instruct patients receiving ILUMYA to seek medical help if signs or symptoms of clinically important chronic or acute infection occur. If a patient develops a clinically important or serious infection, or is not responding to standard therapy, closely monitor and consider discontinuation of ILUMYA until the infection resolves. Pretreatment Evaluation for Tuberculosis Evaluate patients for tuberculosis (TB) infection prior to initiating treatment with ILUMYA. Do not administer ILUMYA to patients with active TB infection. Initiate treatment of latent TB prior to administering ILUMYA. Consider anti-TB therapy prior to initiation of ILUMYA in patients with a past history of latent or active TB in whom an adequate course of treatment cannot be confirmed. Patients receiving ILUMYA should be monitored closely for signs and symptoms of active TB during and after treatment. Immunizations Prior to initiating therapy with ILUMYA, consider completion of all age-appropriate immunizations according to current immunization guidelines. Patients treated with ILUMYA should not receive live vaccines. Adverse Reactions The most common (≥1%) adverse reactions associated with ILUMYA treatment that were more frequent than in the placebo group are upper respiratory infections, injection-site reactions, and diarrhea.
