Bimekizumab Impact on Patient-Reported Outcomes in Plaque Psoriasis: 4-Year Results from BE SURE, BE VIVID, BE READY, and BE BRIGHT.
Article in Dermatology and therapy, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 4 registered trials, which are not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

Abstract
introductionWhile bimekizumab has demonstrated rapid, superior clinical efficacy versus adalimumab and ustekinumab, with sustained responses through 4 years, its comparative and long-term impact on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) remains underexplored. Here, we report PROs with bimekizumab versus adalimumab/ustekinumab/placebo in phase 3 controlled trials, and over 4 years with bimekizumab.
methodsData were analyzed from BE SURE, BE VIVID, BE READY (52/56 weeks), and their open-label extension (OLE), BE BRIGHT (144 weeks; 4 years' total treatment). Patients were randomized to bimekizumab/adalimumab/ustekinumab/placebo during comparator-controlled periods; all received bimekizumab during BE BRIGHT. Proportions of patients reporting Psoriasis Symptoms and Impacts Measure (P‑SIM) = 0 and Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) = 0 (both at item-level) were assessed during comparator‑controlled periods using non-responder imputation (NRI). Over 4 years, PROs were analyzed using modified NRI in patients who received continuous bimekizumab from baseline into the OLE.
resultsBE SURE included 478 patients (bimekizumab, 319; adalimumab, 159); BE VIVID included 567 (bimekizumab, 321; ustekinumab, 163; placebo, 83); BE READY included 435 (bimekizumab, 349; placebo, 86). In total, 771 patients received continuous bimekizumab into the OLE. A larger proportion of bimekizumab-treated patients achieved P-SIM = 0 across key items versus adalimumab (week 24; itching, 30.7% vs. 18.9%; skin pain, 43.9% vs. 30.2%; scaling, 39.2% vs. 19.5%), ustekinumab (week 16; itching, 31.2% vs. 17.8%; skin pain, 51.7% vs. 27.6%; scaling, 43.6% vs. 17.2%), and placebo. Similar trends were seen for other P-SIM items and in proportions of bimekizumab-treated patients reporting DLQI = 0 across items versus comparators. The patient-reported benefits of bimekizumab were demonstrated throughout the OLE, with 65.5-94.8% of patients reporting DLQI = 0 across items at 4 years.
conclusionsBimekizumab provided greater improvements in PROs versus comparators, with durable effects over 4 years. These findings reinforce bimekizumab's role in effective psoriasis management, linking clinical efficacy with sustained patient-reported benefits.
