Dosing with Enbrel® can be individualised based on the needs of each patient.1
The recommended dose of Enbrel® for paediatric patients with plaque PsO is based on weight1:
Treatment should be discontinued in paediatric patients with PsO who show no response after 12 weeks. If re-treatment with Enbrel® is indicated, the above guidance on dosage and treatment duration should be followed.1
Enbrel® Significantly Improves Clinical Outcomes in Pediatric Patients With Plaque PsO2,3
Enbrel® Improves the severity of plaque PsO in children and adolescents as early as Week 2.2
Adapted from Paller AS, et al. 2008.
Paller AS. 2008. Methods: In this 48-week study, 211 patients with PsO (4-17 years of age) were initially randomly assigned to a double-blind trial of 12 QW subcutaneous injections of placebo or 0.8 mg of etanercept per kilogram of body weight (to a maximum of 50 mg), followed by 24 weeks of QW open-label etanercept. At Week 36, 138 patients underwent a second randomisation to placebo or etanercept to investigate the effects of withdrawal and retreatment. The primary endpoint was 75% or greater improvement from baseline in the PASI 75 at Week 12. Secondary endpoints included PASI 50, PASI 90, PGA of clear or almost clear of disease and safety assessments.
Enbrel® Helps Paediatric Patients With Plaque PsO Achieve Sustained Clinical Response3
PASI 50, PASI 75* and PASI* 90 responses compared with baseline throughout first 96 weeks of extension study (observed cases)3
Adapted from Paller AS, et al. 2010.
Paller AS. 2010: Methods: Patients who completed or received substantial treatment benefit in a 48-week, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study (N=211) evaluating the efficacy and safety of QW etanercept (0.8 mg/kg) were enrolled in this 264-week OLE study.2
The primary endpoint was the occurrence of AEs. Secondary endpoints included PASI 50%, 75% and 90% responses compared with baseline; static PGA; and clear and clear/almost clear static PGA status. Results from a 96-week interim analysis are presented.2
PASI 75* at Week 96 (61%) was similar to the report at Week 12 for patients initially randomised to Enbrel® in the Paller clinical trial (57%)3
*Improvements in PASI 75, 50 and 90 over baseline in PASI.3
AE, adverse event; OLE, open-label extension; PASI, Psoriasis Area and Severity Index; PGA, physician global assessment; PsO, psoriasis; QW, once a week; TNFR, tumour necrosis factor receptor.
