ABP 501

Adalimumab

Arm Description

Participants received 80 mg ABP 501 subcutaneously on week 1/day 1 (initial loading dose) and 40 mg at week 2 and every 2 weeks thereafter until week 16. Participants with a PASI 50 response at week 16 continued to receive 40 mg APB 501 until week 48.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Percent Improvement From Baseline in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) at Week 16
The PASI measures the average redness (erythema), thickness (induration), and scaliness (each graded on a 0 to 4 scale) of psoriasis lesions, weighted by the area of involvement in the four main body areas (i.e., head and neck, trunk, upper extremities, and lower extremities). PASI scores can range from 0.0 to 72.0, with higher scores indicating greater severity and/or more extensive psoriasis. Percent improvement from baseline was calculated as (value at baseline - value at post-baseline visit) × 100 / (value at baseline).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Participants With a PASI 75 Response at Week 16
A PASI 75 response is a 75% or greater improvement (reduction) from baseline in PASI score. The PASI measures the average redness (erythema), thickness (induration), and scaliness (each graded on a 0 to 4 scale) of psoriasis lesions, weighted by the area of involvement in the four main body areas (i.e., head and neck, trunk, upper extremities, and lower extremities). PASI scores can range from 0.0 to 72.0, with higher scores indicating greater severity and/or more extensive psoriasis.
Percentage of Participants With a PASI 75 Response at Week 32
A PASI 75 response is a 75% or greater improvement (reduction) from baseline in PASI score. The PASI measures the average redness (erythema), thickness (induration), and scaliness (each graded on a 0 to 4 scale) of psoriasis lesions, weighted by the area of involvement in the four main body areas (i.e., head and neck, trunk, upper extremities, and lower extremities). PASI scores can range from 0.0 to 72.0, with higher scores indicating greater severity and/or more extensive psoriasis.
Percentage of Participants With a PASI 75 Response at Week 50
A PASI 75 response is a 75% or greater improvement (reduction) from baseline in PASI score. The PASI measures the average redness (erythema), thickness (induration), and scaliness (each graded on a 0 to 4 scale) of psoriasis lesions, weighted by the area of involvement in the four main body areas (i.e., head and neck, trunk, upper extremities, and lower extremities). PASI scores can range from 0.0 to 72.0, with higher scores indicating greater severity and/or more extensive psoriasis.
Percent Improvement From Baseline in PASI at Week 32
The PASI measures the average redness (erythema), thickness (induration), and scaliness (each graded on a 0 to 4 scale) of psoriasis lesions, weighted by the area of involvement in the four main body areas (i.e., head and neck, trunk, upper extremities, and lower extremities). PASI scores can range from 0.0 to 72.0, with higher scores indicating greater severity and/or more extensive psoriasis. Percent improvement from baseline is calculated as (value at baseline - value at post-baseline visit) × 100 / (value at baseline).
Percent Improvement From Baseline in PASI at Week 50
The PASI measures the average redness (erythema), thickness (induration), and scaliness (each graded on a 0 to 4 scale) of psoriasis lesions, weighted by the area of involvement in the four main body areas (i.e., head and neck, trunk, upper extremities, and lower extremities). PASI scores can range from 0.0 to 72.0, with higher scores indicating greater severity and/or more extensive psoriasis. Percent improvement from baseline is calculated as (value at baseline - value at post-baseline visit) × 100 / (value at baseline).
Percentage of Participants With a Static Physician's Global Assessment (sPGA) Response at Week 16
The sPGA is a 6-point scale ranging from 0 (clear) to 5 (very severe) used to measure the severity of disease (induration, scaling, and erythema). A sPGA response is defined as a sPGA value of clear (score 0) or almost clear (score 1).
Percentage of Participants With a sPGA Response at Week 32
The sPGA is a 6-point scale ranging from 0 (clear) to 5 (very severe) used to measure the severity of disease (induration, scaling, and erythema). A sPGA response is defined as a sPGA value of clear (score 0) or almost clear (score 1).
Percentage of Participants With a sPGA Response at Week 50
The sPGA is a 6-point scale ranging from 0 (clear) to 5 (very severe) used to measure the severity of disease (induration, scaling, and erythema). A sPGA response is defined as a sPGA value of clear (score 0) or almost clear (score 1).
Change From Baseline in the Percentage of Body Surface Area (BSA) Involved With Psoriasis at Week 16
A measurement of psoriasis involvement, given as the physician's assessment of the percentage of the participant's total body surface area (BSA) involved with psoriasis. The percent of BSA affected was estimated by assuming that the subject's palm, excluding the fingers and thumb, represented roughly 1% of the body's surface. Change from baseline is calculated as (value at post-baseline visit - value at baseline). A decrease from baseline (negative value) indicates improvement.
Change From Baseline in the Percentage of BSA Involved With Psoriasis at Week 32
A measurement of psoriasis involvement, given as the physician's assessment of the percentage of the participant's total body surface area (BSA) involved with psoriasis. The percent of BSA affected was estimated by assuming that the subject's palm, excluding the fingers and thumb, represented roughly 1% of the body's surface. Change from baseline is calculated as (value at post-baseline visit - value at baseline). A decrease from Baseline (negative value) indicates improvement.
Change From Baseline in the Percentage of BSA Involved With Psoriasis at Week 50
A measurement of psoriasis involvement, given as the physician's assessment of the percentage of the participant's total body surface area (BSA) involved with psoriasis. The percent of BSA affected was estimated by assuming that the subject's palm, excluding the fingers and thumb, represented roughly 1% of the body's surface. Change from baseline is calculated as (value at post-baseline visit - value at baseline). A decrease from Baseline (negative value) indicates improvement.
Number of Participants With Adverse Events
The Investigator assessed whether each adverse event (AE) was possibly related to the investigational product. AEs were graded for severity according to the Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.03. A serious AE is defined as an AE that meets at least 1 of the following serious criteria: fatal life threatening requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity congenital anomaly/birth defect other medically important serious event. Results are reported from Day 1 to week 16 for the Part 1 ABP 501 and Adalimumab groups, and from post week 16 to the end of study (week 52) for the Part 2 ABP 501/ABP 501, Adalimumab/Adalimumab and Adalimumab/ABP 501 groups.
Percentage of Participants Developing Antibodies to ABP 501 or Adalimumab
Two validated assays were used to detect the presence of anti-drug antibodies. Samples were first tested in an electrochemiluminescence (ECL)-based bridging immunoassay to detect anti-drug antibodies (ADA) against ABP 501 and adalimumab (Binding Antibody Assay). Samples confirmed to be positive for binding antibodies were subsequently tested in a non-cell based bioassay to determine neutralizing activity against ABP 501 or adalimumab (Neutralizing Antibody Assay). Developing antibody incidence is defined as a negative or no antibody result at baseline and a positive antibody result at a post-baseline time point.
