    Abstract Aims: To compare the efficacy and safety of abobotulinumtoxinA (aboBoNT-A) and onabotulinumtoxinA (onaBoNT-A) for the treatment of refractory neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO), using an indirect treatment comparison (ITC).
    Materials and methods: A systematic literature review was used to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that evaluated botulinum toxin type A for the treatment of refractory NDO. Treatments were compared using a Bucher ITC approach. Efficacy outcomes were reduction in number of weekly urinary incontinence (UI) episodes at 6, 12, and 24 weeks of follow-up. The safety outcome was the proportion of patients with treatment-emergent urinary tract infections (TE-UTIs) during follow-up. Subgroup/sensitivity analyses were performed to investigate the impact of heterogeneity.
    Results: Fifteen studies of botulinum toxin type A were identified. Among these, onaBoNT-A 200 U was the only botulinum toxin type A considered an appropriate comparator for aboBoNT-A 600 U and 800 U. As such, six RCTs that evaluated onaBoNT-A or aboBoNT-A were included in the ITC. In base-case analyses, there were no statistically significant differences between aboBoNT-A and onaBoNT-A in terms of UI episodes or TE-UTIs. Numerically, the trend favored aboBoNT-A (either dose) for all endpoints and time points. At 12 and 24 weeks, the difference in reduction of UI episodes per week was considered clinically relevant when comparing aboBoNT-A 800 U with onaBoNT-A 200 U, but not when comparing the lower dose of aboBoNT-A (600 U) with onaBoNT-A 200 U. Results from subgroup/sensitivity analyses were consistent with the base case.
    Limitations: Heterogeneity across studies was observed; however, strong consistency of trends across analyses suggests the impact of heterogeneity is low.
    Conclusions: There may be potential advantages of aboBoNT-A over onaBoNT-A, in terms of UI reduction, in patients with refractory NDO. More confirmatory studies are needed owing to the sparsity of current evidence.

    Abstract Objective: Network meta-analysis was used to derive estimates of the relative efficacy of inclisiran, evolocumab, alirocumab, bempedoic acid, and ezetimibe in patients with hypercholesterolemia and/or at increased cardiovascular risk due to elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol taking maximum tolerated dose statins.
    Methods: Clinical trials published through February 2021 comparing percent change from baseline in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol were identified
    Results: Results from the base-case analyses demonstrated that inclisiran, evolocumab, and alirocumab provide superior efficacy over placebo, bempedoic acid, and ezetimibe in terms of reduction in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Inclisiran was also comparable to alirocumab (mean difference: 0.78% [95% CrI: -8.35, 9.88]) and evolocumab (8.16%, [95% CrI: -1.82, 18.49]). Findings of a scenario which also included trials conducted in patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia were consistent with the base case. There was evidence of statistical heterogeneity across the included trials, roughly equivalent to variation of 5-10% change in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, suggesting that any differences between treatments that were greater than 5-10% are generalizable.
    Conclusions: This study provides insight regarding the comparative efficacy of drugs for which no head-to-head trials exist and suggests that inclisiran, alirocumab, and evolocumab are expected to provide similar clinically meaningful improvements in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol in patients with hypercholesterolemia on maximally tolerated statins who are at increased cardiovascular risk.

    Abstract Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a rare disease associated with vascular inflammation and multisystem organ damage. The literature reporting EGPA incidence or prevalence is limited. We performed a systematic literature review and meta-analysis to describe the incidence, prevalence, and disease burden associated with EGPA. Real-world, observational, English-language studies in MEDLINE, MEDLINE In-Process, and Embase up to 6 June, 2019, were included. A single investigator screened all identified titles/abstracts and extracted data; an additional, independent investigator repeated the screening and validated the extracted data. A random-effects meta-analysis was conducted to generate pooled estimates for EGPA incidence and prevalence. Data from 100 eligible publications were extracted (32 with incidence/prevalence data, 65 with morbidity/healthcare resource data; 3 with both types of data). Significant evidence of between-study heterogeneity for reported incidence (p = 0.0013-0.0016) and prevalence (p = 0.0001-0.0006) estimates was observed. Global and European pooled estimates (95% confidence interval) of EGPA incidence were 1.22 (0.93, 1.60) and 1.07 (0.94, 1.35) cases per million person-years, respectively; global and European pooled estimates (95% confidence interval) for EGPA prevalence were 15.27 (11.89, 19.61) and 12.13 (6.98, 21.06) cases per million individuals, respectively. The proportions of patients experiencing relapses, or who had nasal polyps or severe asthma, varied considerably across studies. EGPA healthcare resource use was high, with inpatient admissions and emergency department visits reported for 17-42% and 25-42% of patients, respectively. Our results indicate that although global and European EGPA incidence and prevalence is low, the associated disease burden is substantial. Key points • We performed a systematic literature review and meta-analysis of real-world, observational studies describing the incidence, prevalence, and disease burden associated with eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA). • Based on meta-analysis data from 35 eligible studies reporting incidence and prevalence, the incidence and prevalence of EGPA were low (globally 1.22 cases per million person-years and 15.27 cases per million individuals, respectively). • Among the 49 studies with morbidity and/or healthcare resource data, most reported a large proportion of patients with EGPA relapses and comorbidities of nasal polyps and severe asthma. • Healthcare resource use was also high among patients with EGPA in these studies, with inpatient admissions and emergency department visits reported for 17-42% and 25-42% of patients, respectively. Taken together, these data indicate the substantial disease burden associated with EGPA.

    Abstract Introduction: There is a need to compare efficacy and safety profiles of crisaborole ointment, 2%, versus other topical treatments across randomized clinical trials (RCTs). We performed this review/network meta-analysis to evaluate the comparative efficacy and safety of crisaborole versus other topical pharmacologic therapies for mild-to-moderate atopic dermatitis (AD) among patients aged ≥ 2 years.
    Methods: Searches were conducted in MEDLINE, Embase, the Cochrane Collection Central Register of Clinical Trials, and the Database of Abstracts of Reviews of Effects using Ovid to identify English language articles reporting RCTs of topical anti-inflammatory agents in patients aged ≥ 2 years with mild-to-moderate AD published between inception and 10 March 2020. This review used a prespecified protocol with eligibility criteria for population, interventions, comparisons, outcomes, and study design. Efficacy was evaluated using the Investigator's Static Global Assessment (ISGA) of clear (0) or almost clear (1) and expressed by hazard ratios (HR) with 95% credible intervals.
    Results: Patients treated with crisaborole or tacrolimus ointment, 0.1% or 0.03%, versus vehicle alone were significantly more likely to achieve ISGA 0/1 at 28-42 days, with the greatest point estimate observed for the crisaborole comparison (hazard ratio: 2.07; 95% credible interval 1.76 to - 2.36; probability HR above 1 [p better]: 100.0%). Patients were also more likely to achieve ISGA 0/1 with crisaborole than with pimecrolimus cream, 1% (HR: 1.62; 95% credible interval 1.04-2.48; p better: 98.3%). While network meta-analysis for safety was not feasible because of data limitations, crisaborole pivotal studies (AD-301/AD-302) showed crisaborole was well tolerated.
    Conclusions: Crisaborole was shown to be superior to vehicle and pimecrolimus and comparable to tacrolimus, 0.1% or 0.03%, with respect to ISGA 0/1 at 28-42 days in patients aged ≥ 2 years with mild-to-moderate AD. This evaluation of comparative efficacy of crisaborole further supports use of crisaborole as an effective therapeutic option in this population.
