Following treatment, among patients with a baseline average domain score of 3 or 6 (depending on the question), across all domains, greater proportions of guselkumab-treated patients achieved a score of 0 (no impact) at week 24 compared with adalimumab-treated patients (Table?4). Overall, in the pooled analysis of all patients at week 24, change from baseline BI207127 (Deleobuvir) in PASI score was significantly correlated with change in DLQI total score (value vs. adalimumab 0.001?Daily activities??Patients with baseline score?=?6, value vs. adalimumab0.053?Leisure??Patients with baseline score?=?6, value vs. adalimumab0.501?Work and school??Patients with baseline score?=?3, value vs. adalimumab 0.001?Personal relationships??Patients with baseline score?=?6, value vs. adalimumab0.073?Treatment??Patients with baseline score?=?3, value vs. adalimumab0.030 Open in a separate window All values are (%) unless noted otherwise Domains with one question have a total maximum score (most severe) of 3; domains with two questions have a total maximum score (most BI207127 (Deleobuvir) severe) of 6 Changes in Psoriasis Symptoms and Signs Diary (PSSD) Scores from Baseline A significantly greater proportion of patients achieved a PSSD symptom score of 0 at week 24 with guselkumab versus adalimumab treatment (35.6 vs. 22.0%; (%) unless noted otherwise aIn patients randomized to placebo, after week 16 the data includes only those patients who crossed-over to guselkumab at or after week 16 Discussion In pooled data from the two pivotal phase III VOYAGE 1 [16] and VOYAGE 2 [17] studies, guselkumab was superior to adalimumab in improving HRQoL, which was assessed across multiple endpoints of the DLQI and PSSD measures. At week 24, patients treated with guselkumab had a significantly greater improvement in DLQI score from baseline than patients treated with adalimumab. In addition, a significantly greater proportion of guselkumab-treated patients achieved a DLQI 0/1 and an MCID of 4, 5, or 6 compared with adalimumab-treated patients. Changes in each of the individual DLQI domains were significantly greater among guselkumab-treated patients than among adalimumab-treated patients at week 24. A greater proportion of patients receiving guselkumab versus adalimumab achieved.
