| アブストラクト | BACKGROUND: Some pathways involved in the pathogenesis of psoriasis share similarities with processes involved in multiple sclerosis (MS) pathogenesis. However, the association between MS and psoriasis is poorly understood. Since disease-modifying therapies for MS have various targets, it may be possible that the occurrence of psoriasis varies by drug. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the frequency of psoriasis reports in patients treated with various disease-modifying therapies for MS. METHODS: Data was collected using the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) and OpenFDA database between January 2009 and June 2020. The study analyzed total reports of psoriasis out of total reports in the "Skin and Subcutaneous Tissue Disorders" category for each drug and explored age, sex distribution, and report source. OpenFDA data was used to perform statistical analyses including reporting odds ratios (ROR) and information components. RESULTS: The study identified 517 psoriasis reports of 45,547 total skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders (1.13%) in FAERS. The highest proportions of reports in this study were associated with rituximab, ocrelizumab, and interferon beta 1a. The lowest proportion of reports were associated with glatiramer acetate, alemtuzumab, dimethyl fumarate and teriflunomide. Reports of other autoimmune skin disorders were minimal (29 vitiligo, 33 pemphigoid, and 7 pemphigus). Patients primarily drove reports for most DMTs versus healthcare providers. The proportion of reports from female patients were the highest for each DMT except alemtuzumab. OpenFDA query retrieved 302 total reports of psoriasis. Significantly increased reporting odds ratios (RORs, 95% confidence interval) of psoriasis were noted for rituximab (7.14, 3.92-13.00), ocrelizumab (3.79, 2.74-5.23), and fingolimod (1.33, 1.01-1.76). Significantly decreased RORs were noted for natalizumab (0.53, 0.36-0.80), glatiramer acetate (0.58, 0.35-0.96), and dimethyl fumarate (0.71, 0.53-0.94). CONCLUSION: There are frequent reports of psoriasis in MS patients treated with various DMTs. However, reports and RORs were disproportionally high in association with B cell depleting therapies. Further research is required to determine if certain DMTs may serve as better options for individuals affected by, or at high-risk for developing psoriasis. |
