About the analysis by Novartis using BADBIR data
Observation period1
- Adults enrolled from 01 January 2016 to 31 August 2018 (still ongoing)
- Only patients with at least one follow-up visit were included
Patient population1
1679 moderate to severe psoriasis patients treated with the licensed dose of Cosentyx. Of these:
- ~1/3 biologic-naïve patients (n=507)
- ~2/3 biologic-exposed patients (n=1172)
The results
*Analysis by Novartis using BADBIR data. aPASI ≤3 reflects clear or almost clear skin, or a physician global assessment of 0/1.4
aPASI scores at 12 and 24 months were imputed using data recorded ±90 days of each time point. The fall in patient numbers between Years 1 and 2 reflects fewer patients being on treatment long enough to reach the 2-year time point.1
Adapted from Bewley A et al. 2019.1
Adult patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis treated with Cosentyx 300 mg enrolled from 01 January 2016 to 31 August 2018 with at least one follow-up visit evaluated were included in this Novartis analysis of the BADBIR registry. The n-numbers reflect those patients meeting each time point. BADBIR approved the statistical analysis plan used.1
