N2 - BACKGROUND: Certolizumab pegol (CZP) is an Fc-free, PEGylated anti-tumour necrosis factor biologic.OBJECTIVES: To report 3-year safety data from three phase III trials of CZP in adults with plaque psoriasis.METHODS: Data were pooled from CIMPASI-1 (NCT02326298), CIMPASI-2 (NCT02326272) and CIMPACT (NCT02346240). Included patients had moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis of ≥ 6 months' duration; had been randomized to CZP 200 mg every 2 weeks (Q2W) (400 mg at weeks 0, 2 and 4) or CZP 400 mg Q2W; and had received at least one dose of CZP with up to 144 weeks of exposure. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were classified using MedDRA v18·1. Reported incidence rates (IRs) are incidence of new cases per 100 patient-years (PY).RESULTS: Over 144 weeks, 995 patients received at least one dose of CZP (exposure: 2231·3 PY); 731 and 728 received at least one dose of CZP 200 mg Q2W (1211·4 PY) and/or 400 mg Q2W (1019·9 PY), respectively. The IR [95% confidence interval (CI)] of TEAEs was 144·9 (135·3-155·0) for all patients, 134·1 (123·2-145·7) for CZP 200 mg Q2W and 158·3 (145·5-171·9) for CZP 400 mg Q2W. The IR (95% CI) of serious TEAEs for all patients was 7·5 (6·4-8·8); the IRs were 6·7 (5·2-8·3) and 8·7 (6·9-10·8) for CZP 200 mg and 400 mg Q2W, respectively. Overall, 3·2% of patients reported serious infections (2·2% within each of the CZP 200 and 400 mg Q2W groups). Overall, there was one case of active tuberculosis, 16 malignancies in 14 patients and seven deaths (two considered treatment-related). The cumulative IR of TEAEs did not increase over time.CONCLUSIONS: No new safety signals were identified compared with previously reported data. Risk did not increase with longer or higher CZP exposure.
