Amgen Inc. (AMGN) and AstraZeneca PLC (AZN) reported that the Phase 3 AMAGINE-1(TM) study evaluating brodalumab (AMG 827) in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis met all primary and secondary endpoints for both evaluated doses.
Primary endpoints were patients achieving at least a 75% improvement from baseline in disease severity at week 12, as measured by the Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI 75), and patients achieving clear or almost clear skin at week 12 according to the static Physician Global Assessment (sPGA 0 or 1).
A PASI score is a measure of psoriatic plaque redness, scaling and thickness and the extent of involvement in each region of the body. sPGA is a physician's rating of psoriasis severity at a given point in time based on plaque, scaling and redness.
Psoriasis is a non-contagious chronic disease in which the immune system causes skin cells to grow at an accelerated rate. Instead of being shed, skin cells pile up, causing painful and itchy, red, scaly patches.
Brodalumab is the only investigational treatment in development that binds to the interleukin-17 (IL-17) receptor and inhibits inflammatory signaling by blocking the binding of several IL-17 ligands to the receptor.
In April 2012, AMGN and AZN formed a collaboration to jointly develop and commercialize five monoclonal antibodies from AMGN's clinical inflammation portfolio, including brodalumab (AMG 827).
AMGN is committed to unlocking the potential of biology for patients suffering from serious illnesses by discovering, developing, manufacturing and delivering innovative human therapeutics.
