1 · What the graph read from it

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

backgroundDeucravacitinib, an oral, selective, tyrosine kinase 2 inhibitor, is approved for adults with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis who are candidates for systemic therapy and for adults with active psoriatic arthritis.

objectiveWe evaluated deucravacitinib safety and efficacy over 5 years in the phase 3 POETYK PSO-1, PSO-2, and long-term extension (LTE) trials in patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.

methodsPSO-1 and PSO-2 (parent trials) randomized patients 1:2:1 to oral placebo, deucravacitinib 6 mg once daily, or apremilast 30 mg twice daily. At 52 weeks, patients enrolled in the LTE trial received open-label deucravacitinib. Safety was reported as exposure-adjusted incidence rates (EAIRs) per 100 person-years (PY). Clinician- and patient-reported outcomes were analyzed using modified nonresponder imputation in patients receiving continuous deucravacitinib from day 1 (PSO-1/PSO-2) through 5 years.

resultsOverall, 1519 patients received one or more deucravacitinib dose; total exposure was 5046.7 PY through data cutoff (September 2, 2024). EAIRs/100 PY were comparable or decreased from the 1-year to 5-year cumulative period for adverse events (AEs) (229.23, 127.40, respectively), serious AEs (5.68, 5.06), discontinuation due to AEs (4.38, 2.09), deaths (0.20, 0.22), serious infections excluding coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) (1.53, 0.94), malignancies (1.02, 0.92), major adverse cardiovascular events (0.30, 0.34), and venous thromboembolism (0.20, 0.06). Clinical outcomes were well-maintained in patients receiving continuous deucravacitinib (n = 513) from 1 through 5 years, including achievement of a ≥ 75% reduction from baseline in the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (1 year, 72.1% [95% CI 68.2-76.1]; 5 years, 67.3% [62.0-72.6]) and a static Physician Global Assessment score of 0 (clear) or 1 (almost clear) (1 year, 57.5% [53.1-61.9]; 5 years, 52.6% [47.0-58.1]). Dermatology Life Quality Index 0 or 1 was well-maintained from 1 year (52.5% [48.0-57.1]) through 5 years (45.4% [40.0-50.8]).

conclusionsThese findings demonstrate a consistent safety profile with no new safety signals and durable clinical response through 5 years of treatment with deucravacitinib. CLINICAL
