The Efficacy and Safety of Deucravacitinib in Takayasu's Arteritis
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Deucravacitinib: Deucravacitinib is a new, oral, selective, allosteric inhibitor of TYK2. It was first approved in the United States on 09-Sep-2022 for the treatment of adults with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis who are candidates for systemic therapy or phototherapy.
Adalimumab: TNFα inhibitors have already been used in TAK treatment. Several retrospective studies have demonstrated the treatment effects of these agents in patients with TAK, including disease remission, GC tapering and vascular inflammation control. According to the ACR and EULAR guidelines, TNFis are recommended to be considered in cases of relapsing or refractory TAK. These agents (including adalimumab) are the most frequently analyzed therapeutic modalities in recent studies of TAK.
Study summary
This is a 24-week, single-center, randomized, open-label trial conducted by Peking Union Medical College Hospital. The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of deucravacitinib in adult patients with relapsing TAK in comparison to patients treated with TNF inhibitor (TNFi), the most well-recognized therapeutic choice of non-glucocorticoid immunosuppressive for patients with relapsed or refractory TAK.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Overall response rate at week 24 — Week 24
* Overall response is defined as the combination of both complete and partial responses. * Complete (treatment) response is defined as the absence or complete resolution of clinical signs and symptoms of active TAK and a patient achieving all of the following: 1. ESR \<20mm/hour; 2. CRP \<10mg/L; 3. No progression of vessel damage in Doppler ultrasonography or CTA, including no new or worsening mural thickness, or stenosis or dilatation; 4. Dose of GC \<15 mg/day prednisone (or equivalent dosage of other GCs). * Partial (treatment) response is defined as the absence or complete resolution of clinical signs and symptoms of active TAK and: 1. ESR \<40mm/hour or decrease by 50% compared to the baseline value; 2. CRP \<20mg/L or decrease by 50% compared to the baseline value; 3. fulfilling the other two criteria of complete response. * The absence or complete resolution of clinical signs and symptoms of active TAK is a pre-required criterion for both complete and partial
