Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ) wird 43 Abstracts auf dem Jahresmeeting 2024 des American College of Rheumatology (ACR) präsentieren, die neue Daten aus ihrem rheumatologischen Portfolio enthalten. Zu den wichtigsten Highlights gehören die Ergebnisse der Phase-2-Studie DAHLIAS mit Nipocalimab bei Sjögren-Syndrom, die eine relative durchschnittliche Verbesserung von über 70 % im Vergleich zu Placebo zeigen, sowie Ergebnisse der Studie PsABIOnd, die die Wirksamkeit von TREMFYA® (Guselkumab) bei Psoriasis-Arthritis belegen.

Positive
  • Phase 2 DAHLIAS study showed >70% relative average improvement with nipocalimab compared to placebo
  • Twice as many patients on nipocalimab showed 50% increase in saliva production vs placebo
  • PsABIOnd study demonstrated positive impact of TREMFYA in reducing joint pain and skin symptoms
Negative
  • None.

Insights

The Phase 2 DAHLIAS study results for nipocalimab in Sjögren's Disease represent a significant breakthrough. The 70% relative average improvement versus placebo in the primary endpoint and doubled saliva production in treated patients demonstrate strong clinical efficacy. This data suggests nipocalimab could become a first-in-class therapy for this underserved autoimmune condition.

The pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic data showing 77% reduction in total IgG validates the drug's mechanism of action. Importantly, the maintained vaccine response indicates selective immunosuppression, a critical safety feature for chronic autoimmune treatment.

For TREMFYA® (guselkumab), the PsABIOnd study shows meaningful improvements in joint pain and skin symptoms in psoriatic arthritis patients. With 43 total presentations spanning multiple indications, J&J is establishing a strong presence in rheumatology that could drive future revenue growth.

This extensive clinical data presentation strengthens J&J's competitive position in the $50+ billion immunology market. Nipocalimab's positive Phase 2 results in Sjögren's Disease could open up a new revenue stream, as there are currently no FDA-approved treatments for this condition affecting an estimated 4 million Americans.

TREMFYA®, which generated $2.7 billion in 2023 sales, shows continued growth potential through expanded indications and real-world evidence supporting its efficacy. The robust pipeline presentations demonstrate J&J's commitment to maintaining its leadership in immunology, a key growth driver representing about 15% of total pharmaceutical sales.

New data for investigational nipocalimab in Sjögren's Disease (SjD) and new research on the impact of TREMFYA® (guselkumab) in psoriatic arthritis (PsA) will be highlighted across three oral sessions and a plenary session

Results from the Phase 2 DAHLIAS study of nipocalimab in SjD show nipocalimab met the primary endpoint with a reduction in ClinESSDAI score from baseline and other key efficacy endpoints at Week 24 compared with placebo, presented in a plenary session

Results from the PsABIOnd observational study highlight the patient-reported impact in psoriatic arthritis (PsA) disease burden following treatment with TREMFYA®, presented as an oral presentation

SPRING HOUSE, Pa., Nov. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ) announced today that 43 presentations showcasing the Company's rheumatology pipeline and portfolio will be featured at the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 2024 Annual Meeting. Presentations include three oral sessions and a plenary session, highlighting new data for investigational nipocalimab in SjD and new research on the impact of TREMFYA® in PsA.

"Johnson & Johnson is proud to share new data and analyses that demonstrate the potential of nipocalimab and support the well-established efficacy and safety profile of TREMFYA®," said Terence Rooney, M.D., Vice President, Medical Rheumatology Disease Area Leader, Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine. "This is a testament to our decades-long legacy of innovation and continued exploration of new ways to meet the needs of patients with rheumatic diseases, focusing on treatments that improve patient outcomes."

Progressing research in autoantibody-driven diseases
The plenary session will feature data from the Phase 2 DAHLIAS study presented earlier this year. The data showed that adult patients who received nipocalimab 15 mg/kg every two weeks demonstrated a greater than 70% relative average improvement on the primary endpoint compared to patients who received placebo.1 More than twice as many patients on 15 mg/kg nipocalimab compared to placebo experienced at least a 50% increase in saliva production at Week 24 in a post-hoc analysis.1

Additional nipocalimab data highlights include:

  • SjD pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and biomarker data: Two posters will show decreases in rheumatoid factor, circulating immune complexes and all IgG subclasses, and will demonstrate through PK/PD modeling that the median for the maximum potential reduction in total IgG is greater than 77%, providing evidence of interaction of nipocalimab with FcRn and its mechanism of action (MOA) (Abstract #1427 and #2294)
  • Assessment of nipocalimab as an immunoselective investigational therapy: Two posters will be shared showing that nipocalimab-treated study participants respond to vaccines by increasing anti-vaccine IgG levels. In addition, a majority of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients treated with nipocalimab showed anti-vaccine antibody levels consistently above protective thresholds during treatment. (Abstract #1988 and #1976)

Driving leadership in IL-23 research across patient types
Interim results from the PsABIOnd study, an ongoing, prospective, observational cohort study, assessing the effect of TREMFYA® and IL-17 inhibitors on patient-perceived impact of PsA will be presented during the abstract session as an oral presentation. The study highlights reductions in joint pain, skin symptoms, and overall disease activity, demonstrating the positive impact of TREMFYA® in PsA.

Additional data across broad patient types and disease manifestations (domains) will highlight the benefits of treatment with TREMFYA® for moderate to severe plaque psoriasis (PsO) and active PsA.

About Sjögren's Disease

Sjögren's disease (SjD) is one of the most prevalent autoantibody-driven diseases for which no therapies are currently approved that treat the underlying and systemic nature of the disease.2 It is a chronic autoimmune disease that is estimated to impact approximately four million people worldwide and is nine times more common in women than men.3,4 SjD is characterized by autoantibody production, chronic inflammation, and lymphocytic infiltration of exocrine glands. Most patients are affected by mucosal dryness (eyes, mouth, vagina), joint pain and fatigue.2 More than 50% of SjD patients have a moderate to severe form of the condition, and disease burden can be as high as that of rheumatoid arthritis or systemic lupus erythematosus and is often associated with impaired quality of life and functional capacity.5, 3,6

About Rheumatoid Arthritis

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, symmetric, inflammatory disease involving the synovial joints.7 RA occurs when the immune system loses its normal state of balanced control and activates sustained inflammation in the soft inner lining of joints, called synovial tissue.8 This inflammation produces joint pain, swelling, and stiffness, and can lead to permanent damage and deformity in structural joint elements like cartilage and bone.8 Significantly reduced physical function and health-related quality of life typically accompany these features.9 Antibody systems, such as rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs) are associated with RA, having been identified based on the antigens these antibodies bind to.10 RA is the most common inflammatory arthritis and affects an estimated 13 million people worldwide.11 It is estimated that 1.5 million people in the United States are affected by RA.8,12

About Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Lupus is a chronic, inflammatory autoimmune disorder that can affect many different body systems, including joints, skin, heart, lungs, kidneys and brain.13 Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), the most common form of lupus, can range from mild to severe and is characterized by inflammation of any organ system including kidneys, nervous system, brain or brain vasculature, as well as potential hardening of the arteries or coronary artery disease.14 The disease most often affects women and disproportionately affects women of African American, Hispanic, Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (AAHPI) and Native American descent compared to Caucasian women.15 Lupus is estimated to affect at least 5 million people worldwide.16

About Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathies

Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM), generally referred to as myositis, are a heterogeneous group of rare, chronic, autoimmune diseases that are characterized by progressive muscle weakness and damage to joints and major organs.17 It is thought to be caused by an overactive immune system that attacks the body's own muscles, skin and other organs, but the specific cause of the disease is unknown.17 The most common symptom of IIM is muscle weakness in the large muscles of the shoulders, neck or hips and can result in difficulty performing typical daily-life activities such as swallowing, walking, driving, climbing stairs, rising from a seated position, turning over in bed and raising arms overhead.17 It is currently estimated that 5-10 people per million are diagnosed with a type of IIM each year.17 

About Psoriatic Arthritis

Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic, immune-mediated, inflammatory disease characterized by peripheral joint inflammation, enthesitis (pain where the bone, tendon and ligament meet), dactylitis (a type of inflammation in the fingers and toes that can result in a swollen, sausage-like appearance), axial disease and the skin lesions associated with plaque psoriasis (PsO).18,19,20 The disease causes pain, stiffness and swelling in and around the joints; it commonly appears between the ages of 30 and 50, but can develop at any age.21 Nearly half of patients with PsA experience moderate fatigue and about 30% suffer from severe fatigue as measured by the modified fatigue severity scale.22 In patients with PsA, comorbidities such as obesity, cardiovascular disease, anxiety and depression are often present.23 Studies show up to 30% of people with plaque PsO also develop PsA.24 Although the exact cause of PsA is unknown, genes, the immune system and environmental factors are all believed to play a role in disease onset.25

About Ulcerative Colitis 

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic disease of the large intestine, also known as the colon, in which the lining of the colon becomes inflamed and develops tiny open sores, or ulcers, that produce pus and mucus. It is the result of the immune system's overactive response.26 Symptoms vary but may typically include loose and more urgent bowel movements, rectal bleeding or bloody stool, persistent diarrhea, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, weight loss, and fatigue. People with UC also have increased rates of depression.27 

About Crohn's Disease

Crohn's disease is one of the two main forms of inflammatory bowel disease, which affects an estimated three million Americans and an estimated four million people across Europe.28,29 Crohn's disease is a chronic inflammatory condition of the gastrointestinal tract with no known cause, but the disease is associated with abnormalities of the immune system that could be triggered by a genetic predisposition, diet, or other environmental factors.30 Symptoms of Crohn's disease can vary, but often include abdominal pain and tenderness, frequent diarrhea, rectal bleeding, weight loss, and fever.

About Nipocalimab 

Nipocalimab is an investigational monoclonal antibody, designed to bind with high affinity to block FcRn and reduce levels of circulating immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies potentially without impact on other immune functions. This includes autoantibodies and alloantibodies that underlie multiple conditions across three key segments in the autoantibody space including Rare Autoantibody diseases, Maternal Fetal diseases mediated by maternal alloantibodies and Prevalent Rheumatology.1,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38 Blockade of IgG binding to FcRn in the placenta is also believed to limit transplacental transfer of maternal alloantibodies to the fetus.39,40

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Medicines Agency (EMA) have granted several key designations to nipocalimab including:

  • U.S. FDA Fast Track designation in hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) and warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia (wAIHA) in July 2019, gMG in December 2021 and fetal neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (FNAIT) in March 2024
  • U.S. FDA Orphan drug status for wAIHA in December 2019, HDFN in June 2020, gMG in February 2021, chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) in October 2021 and FNAIT in December 2023
  • U.S. FDA Breakthrough Therapy designation for HDFN in February 2024 by the FDA 
  • EU EMA Orphan medicinal product designation for HDFN in October 2019

About TREMFYA® (guselkumab)

Developed by Johnson & Johnson, TREMFYA® is the first approved fully-human, dual-acting monoclonal antibody designed to neutralize inflammation at the cellular source by blocking IL-23 and binding to CD64 (a receptor on cell that produce IL-23). Findings for dual-acting are limited to in vitro studies that demonstrate guselkumab binds to CD64, which is expressed on the surface of IL-23 producing cells in an inflammatory monocyte model. The clinical significance of this finding is not known.

TREMFYA® is a prescription medicine approved in the U.S. to treat:

  • adults with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis who may benefit from taking injections or pills (systemic therapy) or phototherapy (treatment using ultraviolet or UV light).
  • adults with active psoriatic arthritis.

Johnson & Johnson maintains exclusive worldwide marketing rights to STELARA®.

Important Safety Information for STELARA® (Ustekinumab)

STELARA® is a prescription medicine that affects your immune system. STELARA® can increase your chance of having serious side effects including:

Serious Infections
STELARA® may lower your ability to fight infections and may increase your risk of infections. While taking STELARA®, some people have serious infections, which may require hospitalization, including tuberculosis (TB), and infections caused by bacteria, fungi, or viruses.

  • Your doctor should check you for TB before starting STELARA® and watch you closely for signs and symptoms of TB during treatment with STELARA®.
  • If your doctor feels that you are at risk for TB, you may be treated for TB before and during treatment with STELARA®.

You should not start taking STELARA® if you have any kind of infection unless your doctor says it is okay.

Before starting STELARA®, tell your doctor if you:

  • think you have an infection or have symptoms of an infection such as:
    • fever, sweats, or chills
    • muscle aches
    • cough
    • shortness of breath
    • blood in phlegm
    • weight loss
    • warm, red, or painful skin or sores on your body
    • diarrhea or stomach pain
    • burning when you urinate or urinate more often than normal
    • feel very tired
  • are being treated for an infection or have any open cuts.
  • get a lot of infections or have infections that keep coming back.
  • have TB, or have been in close contact with someone with TB.

After starting STELARA®, call your doctor right away if you have any symptoms of an infection (see above). These may be signs of infections such as chest infections, or skin infections or shingles that could have serious complications. STELARA® can make you more likely to get infections or make an infection that you have worse. People who have a genetic problem where the body does not make any of the proteins interleukin 12 (IL–12) and interleukin 23 (IL–23) are at a higher risk for certain serious infections that can spread throughout the body and cause death. People who take STELARA® may also be more likely to get these infections.

Cancers

STELARA® may decrease the activity of your immune system and increase your risk for certain types of cancer. Tell your doctor if you have ever had any type of cancer. Some people who had risk factors for skin cancer developed certain types of skin cancers while receiving STELARA®. Tell your doctor if you have any new skin growths.

Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome (PRES)

PRES is a rare condition that affects the brain and can cause death. The cause of PRES is not known. If PRES is found early and treated, most people recover. Tell your doctor right away if you have any new or worsening medical problems including: headache, seizures, confusion, and vision problems.

Serious Allergic Reactions

Serious allergic reactions can occur. Stop using STELARA® and get medical help right away if you have any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction such as: feeling faint, swelling of your face, eyelids, tongue, or throat, chest tightness, or skin rash.

Lung Inflammation

Cases of lung inflammation have happened in some people who receive STELARA® and may be serious. These lung problems may need to be treated in a hospital. Tell your doctor right away if you develop shortness of breath or a cough that doesn't go away during treatment with STELARA®.

Before receiving STELARA®, tell your doctor about all of your medical conditions, including if you:

  • have any of the conditions or symptoms listed above for serious infections, cancers, or PRES.
  • ever had an allergic reaction to STELARA® or any of its ingredients. Ask your doctor if you are not sure.
  • are allergic to latex. The needle cover on the prefilled syringe contains latex.
  • have recently received or are scheduled to receive an immunization (vaccine). People who take STELARA® should not receive live vaccines. Tell your doctor if anyone in your house needs a live vaccine. The viruses used in some types of live vaccines can spread to people with a weakened immune system, and can cause serious problems. You should not receive the BCG vaccine during the one year before receiving STELARA® or one year after you stop receiving STELARA®.
  • have any new or changing lesions within psoriasis areas or on normal skin.
  • are receiving or have received allergy shots, especially for serious allergic reactions.
  • receive or have received phototherapy for your psoriasis.
  • are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. It is not known if STELARA® can harm your unborn baby. You and your doctor should decide if you will receive STELARA® if you are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed. It is thought that STELARA® passes into your breast milk.
  • talk to your doctor about the best way to feed your baby if you receive STELARA®.

Tell your doctor about all the medicines you take, including prescription and over–the–counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements. Know the medicines you take. Keep a list of them to show your doctor and pharmacist when you get a new medicine.

When prescribed STELARA®:

  • Use STELARA® exactly as your doctor tells you to.
  • STELARA® is intended for use under the guidance and supervision of your
    doctor. In children 6 years and older, it is recommended that STELARA® be administered by a healthcare provider. If your doctor decides that you or a caregiver may give your injections of STELARA® at home, you should receive training on the right way to prepare and inject STELARA®. Your doctor will determine the right dose of STELARA® for you, the amount for each injection, and how often you should receive it. Do not try to inject STELARA® yourself until you or your caregiver have been shown how to inject STELARA® by your doctor or nurse.

Common side effects of STELARA® include: nasal congestion, sore throat, and runny nose, upper respiratory infections, fever, headache, tiredness, itching, nausea and vomiting, redness at the injection site, vaginal yeast infections, urinary tract infections, sinus infection, bronchitis, diarrhea, stomach pain, and joint pain. These are not all of the possible side effects with STELARA®. Tell your doctor about any side effect that you experience. Ask your doctor or pharmacist for more information.
