Abstract

Background: Common symptoms of axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) include fatigue, spinal pain, stiffness, and sleep problems, which can impair health-related quality of life. Ixekizumab (IXE) treatment shows efficacy in active non-radiographic axSpA (nr-axSpA).1

Objectives: To assess fatigue, spinal pain, stiffness, and sleep with IXE treatment versus (vs) placebo (PBO) in patients (pts) with active nr-axSpA up to 16 and 52 weeks (wks).

Methods: In COAST-X, pts with active nr-axSpA were randomized to 52 wks of double-blind IXE 80 mg once every 4 wks (Q4W) or 2 wks (Q2W), or PBO. Data were collected from baseline to Wk 52.

Results: At Wk 16, IXE Q4W significantly improved fatigue, spinal pain, and stiffness, and IXE Q2W improved spinal pain, spinal pain at night, and stiffness vs PBO (Table). At Wk 52, IXE Q4W significantly improved stiffness, and IXE Q2W improved spinal pain, spinal pain at night, and stiffness vs PBO. Numeric improvements in sleep were not significant vs PBO. Wk 1, and up to Wk 16, IXE Q4W and Q2W significantly reduced spinal pain and stiffness vs PBO; stiffness was significantly reduced vs PBO up to Wk 52 (Figure).

Least squares mean (standard error) change from BL-ITT population (mixed-effect model of repeated measures)

Conclusion: IXE Q4W and/or Q2W significantly improved spinal pain, spinal pain at night, and stiffness vs PBO at 16 and 52 wks in pts with nr-axSpA. IXE Q4W also improved fatigue at 16 wks in these pts. Numerical improvements in sleep were not significant vs PBO.
