Population studied

Short description of the study population

Intervention group: Adult patients receiving TNFi for psoriasis (PsO), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), ankylosis spondylitis (AS), inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD)

Adults (18 to < 65 years)
Adults (18 to < 46 years)
Adults (46 to < 65 years)
Elderly (≥ 65 years)

Study design details

Study design

(1) Systematic review and network meta-analysis assessing the risk of Adverse events of interest in adult patients receiving biologics/targeted therapies for PsO, PsA, AS, or IBD comparing them against each other.
(2) Nationwide “exposed/unexposed” cohort study using the French health-insurance

Main study objective

The aim of SATURATIOn is to shorten the time to confirm adverse events of interest related to innovative therapies for immune-mediated inflammatory diseases using the French National health-insurance data.

Setting

France

Comparators

Comparator group: Patients receiving other biological/targeted therapies (listed above) or placebo (only for RCTs) for the same diseases, with the same severity as in the intervention group to avoid selection bias.
Details of the two groups and preliminary data are available in the protocol (Table 1).

Outcomes

Primary outcomes will be the following incident AEs of interest:
• Heart failures and Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events (MACEs) (including nonfatal stroke, nonfatal myocardial infarction or cardiovascular death),
• Serious infections (any infection meeting the regulatory definition of a serious adverse event, SAE)
• Malignancies excluding non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) and carcinoma in situ of the cervix,
• Psychiatric disorders (depression, suicidal ideation behaviour; neurotic, stress-related, or somatoform disorders; and personality and behavioural disorders)
Secondary outcomes
• NMSC and carcinoma in situ of the cervix,
• Demyelinating diseases and auto-immune diseases
• Pulmonary embolism and leg veinous thrombo-embolic events
• All reported events defined as SAEs.
