Abstract
Objective
The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between self-reported non-adherence, non-trough drug levels, immunogenicity and conventional synthetic DMARD (csDMARD) co-therapy in TNF inhibitor (TNF-i) drug response in PsA.
Methods
Serum samples and adherence questionnaires were collected at baseline, 3, 6 and 12 months for PsA patients prescribed TNF-i. Non-trough adalimumab (ADL) and etanercept (ETN) drug levels were measured at 3 and 6 months using commercially available ELISAs. Clinical response was assessed using PsA response criteria (PsARC) and change in 28-joint DAS (ΔDAS28) between baseline and 3, 6 and 12 months.
Results
In 244 PsA patients (52.5% ADL and 47.5% ETN), self-reported non-adherence was associated with PsARC non-response over 12 months using generalized estimating equation (GEE) modelling (P = 0.037). However, there was no significant difference between non-trough ADL or ETN drug levels based on self-reported non-adherence. Higher ETN levels at 3 months were associated with PsARC response at 3 (P = 0.015), 6 (P = 0.037) and 12 months (P = 0.015) and over 12 months using GEE modelling (P = 0.026). Increased ADL drug levels at 3 months were associated with greater ΔDAS28 at 3 months (P = 0.019). ADL anti-drug antibody-positive status was significantly associated with lower 3- and 6-month ADL levels (P < 0.001) and ΔDAS28 and PsARC response at 3, 6 and 12 months. Meanwhile, MTX co-therapy was associated with a reduction in immunogenicity at 3 and 6 months (P = 0.008 and P = 0.024).
Conclusion
Although both were associated with reduced response, the objectively measured non-trough drug levels showed more significant associations with drug response than self-reported non-adherence measures.
