Assessment of the effects of immunogenicity on the pharmacokinetics, efficacy and safety of tildrakizumab.

ADA development with tildrakizumab treatment for 52-64 weeks was low; around 3% of patients developed TE-POS NAb-POS ADAs and showed lower serum concentrations and corresponding reduced efficacy. No relationship between ADAs and safety was observed. What's already known about this topic? Unwanted immune responses - for example immunogenicity and antidrug antibodies (ADAs) - have been observed with therapeutic monoclonal antibodies and can affect efficacy and safety. Tildrakizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting interleukin-23 and is currently approved for patients with plaque psoriasis. What does this study add? ADA development in tildrakizumab-treated patients with psoriasis over 52 weeks was low. The small proportion of patients who had treatment-emergent ADAs and had neutralizing antibodies experienced lower serum tildrakizumab concentrations and reduced efficacy. No relationship between ADAs and safety events was observed.
