The Path to Biologics: Finding a PsA Treatment That Works for Me – Healthline

Posted: March 31, 2021 at 6:48 am

I was terrified of biologics as a treatment for PsA until it changed my life.

I was 19 when I started noticing patches on my elbows. I thought it was just really dry skin but, despite moisturizing, the patches grew.

A few years later, a doctor finally identified these patches and the ones that had sprung up on my knees as psoriasis.

At the time, I knew nothing about psoriasis. I had no idea that it was an autoimmune disease. I saw it as nothing more than a cosmetic nuisance.

Years later, when my joints began to ache, it didnt occur to me that my pain could be related to this skin condition.

Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is inflammatory arthritis closely related to psoriasis. Approximately 7.4 million Americans have psoriasis, 10 to 20 percent of whom will eventually develop PsA, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Most people who develop PsA already have skin symptoms, although some people develop symptoms of arthritis before skin is visibly affected.

In my case, I first noticed stiffness in my hands and pain in the joints of my feet. The pain and stiffness were worse when I first woke up and tended to improve through the day.

These were not symptoms that dramatically affected my ability to get through my day, and so I largely ignored them.

Eventually, I went to a rheumatologist to figure out what was going on.

PsA is typically diagnosed by first ruling out other conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis, Lyme disease, and other issues that cause joint pain.

That rheumatologist told me, Youre young, your symptoms are mild. I wouldnt worry about it too much.

He prescribed ibuprofen and told me to come back when it got worse.

A few years later when my symptoms were worsening, I sought advice from a different rheumatologist. This doctor took the opposite approach.

After listening to my history for less than 5 minutes, she declared that I needed to start more aggressive treatment immediately.

With no discussion of pros and cons, she shooed me out the door with a prescription for methotrexate an injectable drug thats commonly used in the treatment of psoriasis.

I did some research, got freaked out, and ditched both the prescription and the doctor.

Eventually, the psoriasis that Id always seen as a mild nuisance had spread enough to affect my self-esteem.

I was a middle school teacher at the time, and my students were constantly saying things like, Wow, Mrs. Carns, is that poison ivy? What happened to you?

I made an appointment with a new dermatologist to see what advances there might have been in psoriasis therapies.

This new doctor felt the pockets of fluid in the knuckles of my hand and asked if Id ever considered using biologics.

The treatment of an autoimmune disease often involves some mechanism for suppressing the bodys immune system. The trick is to suppress only the part of the immune system that is overreacting, leaving the rest of it functioning normally.

This is where the so-called biologic treatments come in. These treatments are able to target, with greater and greater specificity, the unwanted immune response.

I told the dermatologist how the rheumatologists suggestion of methotrexate had scared me off, and she listened patiently to my concerns.

I was in my early 40s and I was worried about starting a medication that I might have to continue for the rest of my life. Plus, the idea of suppressing my immune system, on purpose, was deeply unsettling.

What my doctor explained to me, however, was that my relative youth was itself an argument for addressing not just my symptoms, but the progression of the disease.

While I may have felt the discomfort was manageable at the time, eventually, PsA was likely to cause irreversible joint damage. This could lead to increasing levels of disability.

Still relatively young and mobile, I had the opportunity to stop or slow the disease before that damage occurred. This was the argument that finally convinced me.

Once Id decided to go on biologics, however, I had to confront the delivery method.

One of the drawbacks of biologics, for many, is that they are delivered via injection and most people self-inject at home. This prospect was daunting to me, to say the least.

Thankfully, I was able to enroll in a patient support program run by the pharmaceutical company, and a nurse came to my house and taught me how to do the injections.

At first, I felt a lot of anxiety leading up to injection day. Over time, through some trial and error, Ive found a routine that works for me.

I make sure to remove the injection pens from the fridge at least 15 minutes before administering. I use ice to numb the area and squeeze (or chunk up) the injection site with my other hand.

With my current medication, I have a choice between the front of my thighs or my abdomen as injection sites. Ive found injecting into the abdomen to be significantly less painful because the tissue there is fattier. Ive never been so grateful for a soft belly!

Ive now been on biologic treatment for over 4 years and have a wonderful rheumatologist who works with my dermatologist to coordinate treatment.

My doctors check my blood work every few months, and so far I havent had any negative side effects.

There have, however, been some benefits I wasnt expecting.

Until I started using biologics, I didnt realize that the fatigue I was experiencing, which worsened considerably during flares of my joint symptoms, was related to my PsA.

It was something I had gotten so used to, I didnt notice until it was gone.

This is often the case for people with chronic illnesses. We become accustomed to feeling a certain way and forget what normal even felt like.

If you look closely while Im standing in the sunlight, you may notice a slight difference in the pigmentation of my arms and legs in the places once covered by large psoriasis plaques. There is no other visual clue that I am a person with psoriasis.

As for the PsA, my hands are sometimes still stiff in the morning, and the joints in my toes ache a bit during cold and rainy weather.

In addition to my medication, I try to keep my joints limber and muscles strong with yoga and other weight-bearing exercises.

A recent set of X-rays confirmed that my primary goal of treatment has been successful: There was no indication of joint damage whatsoever.

In the end, Im glad I found a team of doctors who listened to my concerns and took me seriously.

Im also glad I was able to overcome my fears and begin treatment, improving my quality of life both today and, hopefully, for decades to come.

If You See This on Your Skin, Your Heart Attack Risk Is Higher, Study Says – Best Life

Posted: at 6:48 am

You can't see any of your organs with your own eyes, except for your largest one: your skin. The good news is, while you can't check to make sure your liver or kidney are in good working order by looking at them on a daily basis, your skin may help give you insight into what else is going on inside your body. It can even hint at how healthy (or not) your heart is, according to a new study. The research has found that a common skin condition raises your risk of having a heart attack. Read on to find out more on the connection between your skin and your heart, and for more heart health indicators to be aware of, If You Can't Do This in 90 Seconds, Your Heart Is in Danger, Study Says.

Psoriasis is a skin condition that, as it turns out, also has a connection to cardiovascular health. According to a study published March 5 in the Chinese Medical Journal, psoriasis is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and is associated with an increased risk of major adverse cardiovascular events, like heart attacks.

An earlier 2006 study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association identified that patients with psoriasis were up to three times more likely to have a heart attack than people without the skin condition. This was after researchers analyzed five years' worth of data from around 700,000 people.

And for more on how to tell whether or not your heart is healthy, If You See This in Your Mouth, Your Heart Attack Risk Is High, Study Says.

Psoriasis causes your immune system to overreact and triggers inflammation in your body, according to Healthline. Unfortunately, this inflammation is what can affect your heart.

"Chronic inflammation has long been associated with an increased risk of heart attack and stroke," Kevin R. Campbell, MD, an internist and cardiologist with Cano Health, told Everyday Health. According to Campbell, inflammation can damage the arteries, which results in blockages or plaque buildup inside the blood vessels that supply blood to the heart. And when the flow of blood to your heart is slowed or interrupted, it heightens your risk of heart attack.

And for more up-to-date health news delivered right to your inbox, sign up for our daily newsletter.

According to the National Psoriasis Foundation, 2 to 3 percent of the global population has the condition, including more than 8 million Americans. Unfortunately, as the experts at the Mayo Clinic note, "psoriasis is a common, long-term (chronic) disease with no cure."

It typically causes red, itchy scaly patches on the skin, most commonly affecting the lower back, elbows, knees, legs, soles of the feet, scalp, face, and palms, according to the Mayo Clinic. You could also experience dry, cracked skin that may bleed or itch. Psoriasis tends to come in cycles, with flare-ups triggered by infections, weather, stress, alcohol, and certain medications.

And for more signs of health conditions hiding in plain sight, here are 17 Things Your Nails Can Tell You About Your Health.

While there's no cure for psoriasis, it is something that can be managed, but it's important to research the side effects of potential treatments. Min Chen, PhD, an author for the new study and a professor at the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, says that considering the risk of cardiovascular disease and events is important when treating patients with psoriasis.

"Some of the drugs for psoriasis may increase the risks of these diseases, while some can reduce them," Chen explained in a statement.

According to the new study, some psoriasis treatments, such as tumor necrosis factor alpha inhibitors and methotrexate, may reduce a patient's long-term risk of having a heart attack. However, others, like some interleukin inhibitors, increase the risk. That's because, according to Healthline, some psoriasis treatments can cause irregular cholesterol levels, which can then "harden the arteries and make a heart attack even more likely."

And for more on medications to be careful with, If You're Taking Tylenol With This, Your Liver Is in Danger, Experts Say.

Guselkumab Benefits Observed Through 2 Years in Psoriatic Arthritis Trial – Dermatology Advisor

Posted: at 6:48 am

In adults with active psoriatic arthritis, continued treatment with guselkumab was associated with skin clearance and joint symptom improvement through 2 years, according to long-term data from the phase 3 DISCOVER-2 study.

In DISCOVER-2 (ClinicalTrials.gov:NCT03158285), patients with active psoriatic arthritis (N=739) were randomly assigned to guselkumab 100mg every 4 or every 8 weeks for 2 years, or to placebo with crossover to guselkumab every 4 weeks at week 24 through 2 years. The study aimed to evaluate multiple clinical outcomes including joint and skin symptoms and radiographic progression in patients with psoriatic arthritis.

Results at week 100 showed that 76% of patients receiving guselkumab every 4 weeks and 74% of patients receiving treatment every 8 weeks achieved at least 20 percent improvement in the American College of Rheumatology (ACR20) response criteria. Findings also revealed that 56% and 55% of patients treated with guselkumab every 4 weeks and 8 weeks, respectively, achieved at least 50 percent improvement in ACR score. Moreover, low rates of radiographic progression of joint damage were observed in patients receiving guselkumabfrom week 52-100.

Among patients who had clinically meaningful skin involvement at baseline, 59% and 53% of patients treated with guselkumab every 4 weeks and 8 weeks, respectively, achieved complete skin clearance (Psoriasis Area Severity Index [PASI] 100). Additionally, 62% and 55% of patients receiving guselkumab every 4 and 8 weeks, respectively, achieved complete skin clearance as measured by the Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) score of 0.

The safety of guselkumab in patients with active psoriatic arthritis through 2 years was found to be comparable to safety at 6 months and 1 year and was consistent with the safety profile seen in patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. No new safety signals were observed through week 112.

Full data from the DISCOVER-2 trial will be presented during the Innovations in Dermatology: Virtual Spring Conference, March 16 to 20, 2021.

Guselkumab, an interleukin-23 antagonist, is marketed under the trade nameTremfyaand is approved for the treatment of psoriatic arthritis and moderate to severe plaque psoriasis in adults who are candidates for systemic therapy or phototherapy.

New phase 3 data show first-in-class Tremfya(guselkumab) achieved complete skin clearance and favorable joint efficacy in adult patients with active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) through two years. [press release]. Spring House, PA: Janssen; March 16, 2021.

Drug Retention, Remission, and Response Rates of Secukinumab in Psoriatic Arthritis Analyzed in Europe – Rheumatology Advisor

Posted: at 6:48 am

In patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) receiving secukinumab, retention, remission, low disease activity (LDA), and response rates were significantly better for those who were bionaive after 6 and 12 months of treatment, according to study results published in Arthritis Care & Research (Hoboken). Researchers indicated high retention rates and good remission, LDA, and response rates of secukinumab, with overall effectiveness comparable to previous observational studies of tumor necrosis factor inhibitors.

Researchers sought to evaluate the overall real-life 12-month retention rates of secukinumab in European patients with PsA.

A longitudinal, observational study was conducted in 13 quality registries in rheumatology practices in the European Spondyloarthritis Research Collaboration Network (EuroSpA RCN).

The current study included data from patients with PsA who received secukinumab between May 2015 and December 2018 in 13 countries in EuroSpA RCN, including Sweden, Denmark, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, Czech Republic, Slovenia, Portugal, Norway, Finland, Iceland, Romania, and Turkey. Study inclusion criteria were participants aged at least 18 years at beginning of treatment, a PsA diagnosis according to a treating rheumatologist, and a registered start and, if relevant, stop date of receiving secukinumab.

The primary study outcome was overall 12-month secukinumab retention rates. Secondary study outcomes included overall 6-month retention rates, as well as remission, LDA, and response rates after 6 months and 12 months of treatment.

A total of 2017 patients with PsA who had received secukinumab for the first time were enrolled in the study. After 6 and 12 months of secukinumab, overall retention rates were 86% and 76%, respectively. Crude (LUNDEX-adjusted) 6-month remission/LDA rates for Disease Activity Index for Psoriatic Arthritis (DAPSA28), 28-joint Disease Activity Score with C-reactive protein (DAS28-CRP), and Simplified Disease Activity Index (SDAI) were 13%/46% (11%/39%), 36%/55% (30%/46%), and 13%/56% (11%/47%), respectively. At 12 months, crude (LUNDEX-adjusted) remission/LDA rates for DAPSA28, DAS28-CRP, and SDAI were 11%/46% (7%/31%), 39%/56% (26%/38%), and 16%/62% (10%/41%), respectively.

At 6 months, crude (LUNDEX-adjusted) American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 20/50/70 responses were 34%/19%/11% (29%/16%/9%), respectively. At 12 months, crude (LUNDEX-adjusted) ACR20/50/70 responses were 37%/21%/11% (24%/14%/7%). Further, the effectiveness of secukinumab was significantly better among biologic/targeted synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (b/ts DMARD)-naive patients and was similar over time since PsA diagnosis (<2 years, 2-4 years, and >4 years), varying significantly across the European registries.

Study limitations included lack of data on extra-articular inflammatory involvement, heterogeneity in baseline characteristics and secukinumab effectiveness across the registries, and missing data on disease states and response rates, which reduced generalizability of the findings.

Researchers concluded that the findings from this study may be taken into consideration when making treatment decisions in routine clinical care.

Brandi Glanville Burned Off Her Eyelashes After Accident With At-Home Psoriasis Treatment: Pic – Us Weekly

Posted: at 6:48 am

Brandi Glanville. MediaPunch/Shutterstock

Big misunderstanding. Brandi Glanvilles face looked noticeably different during an appearance on Australias The Morning Show on March 25. After many outlets called out that the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum was unrecognizable and must have gone under the knife.

Glanville put plastic surgery rumors to bed once for all via Twitter. She shared a shocking photo of half of her badly burned and scabbed face, with patches of redness and blisters.

So this happened to me in December 2nd degree burns all over my face from an accident with a psoriasis light I am still healing & really didnt want to share these photos but since @DailyMail is attacking my looks here is the 411, she captioned the throwback photo.

The Drinking and Tweeting: And Other Brandi Blunders author added she felt forced into sharing her painful experience. Honestly its not something I wanted out there or I wanted to share all and it was so depressing but I just feel like I have to defend myself, Im still healing.

Leah Van Bryan, who stars in The Internet Ruined My Life, commented on the jarring image, writing, Omg Brandi you poor woman I hope youre ok, thats disgraceful what theyre doing to you.

Glanville responded to the comment, providing more details about how the accident happened in the first place.

Im OK but you know it happened in December. Im still swollen and having people attack my looks just makes me feel like I never wanna leave my house and I just want to cry.

She continued to explain that her her retinas were burned and her eyelashes burned off. It was so painful that she couldnt even open her eyes for three whole days.

The burns occurred after a miscommunication between the reality star and her doctor. While she was supposed to hold the light over her face for 17.3 seconds, Glanville mistakenly left it there for 17.3 minutes. She adds that the burns were completely my fault, it was supposed to help the psoriasis that was overtaking my face from stress.

The fashion designer opened up about her struggle with psoriasis, which is a chronic skin condition, back in a November 2020 on Instagram. For Friday the 13th Im sharing something scary! Psoriasis taking over my face & Im depressed about it. Thank God for masks, she captioned the car selfie, showing a flare up by her nose.

Can CBD Shampoo Prevent Hair Loss And Treat Psoriasis? – The Fresh Toast

Posted: at 6:48 am

Theres so much to say about cannabis; from being a great treatment option for pain relief to its mood relaxation properties and lots more. Cannabis has been described as the new gold in the health and wellness sector because of its endless potentials. The potential has now extended to the prevention of hair loss and treatment of psoriasis.

Before getting to the solutions, we must talk about the problem and try to understand why it happens. For anyone to fully appreciate the value of CBD shampoo and other CBD products, one must understand the problem.

When people grow older, they experience a natural change with their hair that leads to hair loss. While some lose hair at a slower pace, others lose hair much faster (this happens for different reasons).

Hair loss cab also be hereditary, if older members of your family also lose hair, there is a greater chance that the same will happen to you. Stress and hormonal deficiencies are also major causes of hair loss. If you are experiencing hair loss you will agree that it is the most worrisome experience. If you havent experienced hair loss, you should actively think about how to prevent it from happening.

While there are numerous solutions for hair loss, CBD shampoo is taking the lead for many reasons. Firstly, due to the anti-anxiety properties in CBD, you will learn to relax your mind and body thus reducing stress that can cause hair loss.

CBD shampoo also contains anti-inflammatory properties that protects the base of your hair from hair loss. Now there are numerous remedies for hair loss available on the market but some of them are proven to be ineffective.

However with CBD shampoo you have a tested product that offers consistent hair treatment which protects your hair from the scalp to the tips. You can trust CBD shampoo because of its natural components which nourish the hair elements and strengthens it.

CBD contains different amino and fatty acids which are crucial nutrients for hair protection. With the shampoo made from CBD you will also get other minerals in large quantities that keep your hair healthy, lush and strong. But please remember that shampoo products are not meant to be used on a one-off basis as it is important that your hair feeds on CBD regularly. You want the hair to get used to the CBD nutrients and you want to use just enough to ensure that there are no subsequent breakages which will lead to hair loss again.

Psoriasis is referred to as an autoimmune disease that causes a persons skin to appear red, dry and scaly. You will find these red patches mostly on the elbows, knees and scalp (your hair region).

Some of the symptoms of psoriasis includes uncomfortable itchy sensations caused by skin irritation and a burning feeling on the skin that degenerates into sores. If left untreated, these issues may worsen and cause a bigger problem for the individual that leads to unpleasant looking skin.

RELATED: Could Cannabis Eliminate The High-Cost And High-Stakes Of Current Psoriasis Medicines?

However, these symptoms can gradually fade away with the application of CBD shampoo on the affected scalp areas. It is easier to apply he CBD shampoo on the scalp than it is to use CBD oils and other topical creams on your hair and head.

The CBD shampoo works effectively by renewing your scalp and restoring balance to your skins life cycle. Once the life cycle of your skin is balanced, you will start to observe improvements and healing from the scalp to the hair.

While there is no cure for psoriasis, CBD shampoo does help to minimize the severe effects it has on your skin. You will see symptoms reduce and with support from CBD, your immune system will receive a boost thus preventing further outbreak.

If you have been diagnosed with psoriasis on your scalp then you need CBD shampoo for relief. But it is not enough just to have CBD shampoo as there are some things to consider which can either improve the CBD usage or impede it.

If you have a lot of thick hair on your head, it might cause the shampoo to settle on the hair and not get to the scalp (which is your skin area). This fact is the reason why those with little or no hair tend to enjoy the benefits of CBD shampoo for psoriasis more than those with full and thick hair.

RELATED: Is CBD The Secret Ingredient To A Perfect Hair Day?

Now if you have a thick hair, all hope is not lost. You just need to ensure that when applying the shampoo, it gets to the scalp and settles in there for a while.

If you are worried that the CBD shampoo will not be enough for the hair volume youve got then its okay to mix the shampoo with coconut oil. A mix of CBD shampoo and coconut oil is a viable treatment for psoriasis on the scalp.

You can also achieve greater results with CBD shampoo for psoriasis or hair loss by taking additional CBD supplements so the healing also starts from the inside out.

CBD shampoo is packed with anti-inflammatory properties that strengthens and revitalizes damaged hair. With this shampoo your hair gets all the necessary vitamins, proteins and amino acids needed to make your scalp stronger thus stimulating hair growth.

It should be noted that CBD shampoo also offers a wide range of benefits for those who suffer from psoriasis. The application of CBD shampoo on the skin gives the user an invigorating feeling that makes both hair and skin come alive again.

Traditional shampoo contains additives and fragrances that leaves your skin feeling dry and damaged. However with CBD shampoo, you get an effective yet gentle product that repairs your hair and revives your skin follicles. If you desire that supple moisturizing effect that comes with using a good shampoo, get CBD shampoo today!
