AbstractObjectivesUp to 40% of PsA patients experience first-line tumour necrosis factor inhibitors (TNF-i) failure. Lower serum drug levels (SDL) have been associated with lower response in autoimmune conditions. This study aimed to: (i) establish the relationship between adalimumab (ADL) and etanercept (ETN) SDL and 3-month response; and (ii) identify optimal non-trough SDL thresholds in PsA.MethodsPsA patients commencing ADL or ETN were recruited to the UK observational study OUTPASS. Patients were seen pre-TNF-i and at 3 months when response was measured, and non-trough serum samples collected. Response was defined according to the PsARC or EULAR criteria. Descriptive statistics and concentration-effect curves established differences in SDL based on response. Receiver operating characteristic curves and regression identified optimal SDL thresholds.ResultsPsA ETN (n = 97) PsARC and EULAR good responders had significantly higher 3-month SDL compared to non-responders (P = 0.006 and P = 0.020, respectively). Non-trough 3-month ETN SDL discriminated PsARC responders from non-responders (AUC = 0.70), with a threshold of 1.8 µg/ml being 63% specific and 69% sensitive. EULAR good and non-/moderate responders were discriminated with an AUC of 0.65 with a threshold of 2.0 µg/ml being 57% specific and 69% sensitive. ADL prescribed (n = 104) EULAR good responders had significantly higher 3-month SDL (P = 0.049). Non-trough 3-month ADL SDL discriminated EULAR good and non-/moderate responders (AUC = 0.63) with a threshold of 3.6 µg/ml being 48% specific and 81% sensitive.ConclusionHigher 3-month SDL were detected in responders. Interventions to optimise SDL may improve treatment response earlier. This study suggests 3-month SDL thresholds which may be useful in clinical practice to optimize treatment response.
