Safety profile in active PsA across 2 clinical trials1,2
Combined safety across DISCOVER 1 and DISCOVER 2 at Week 24 and Year 1
Treatment-emergent adverse events reported in the placebo-controlled phase through Week 24: Combined across DISCOVER 1 and DISCOVER 2
Treatment-emergent adverse events through 1 year: Combined across DISCOVER 1 and DISCOVER 2*
In the 24-week, placebo-controlled period of the combined DISCOVER 1 and DISCOVER 2 clinical trials:
- The overall safety profile observed in patients with psoriatic arthritis treated with TREMFYA® is generally consistent with the safety profile in patients with plaque psoriasis with the addition of bronchitis and neutrophil count decreased. In the 24-week, placebo-controlled period, combined across the 2 studies1:
- Bronchitis occurred in 1.6% of patients in the TREMFYA® q8w group and 1.1% of patients in the placebo group
- Neutrophil count decreased occurred in 0.3% of patients in the TREMFYA® q8w group compared to 0% of patients in the placebo group. The majority of events of neutrophil count decreased were mild, transient, not associated with infection and did not lead to discontinuation
