Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus Disease Understanding and Treatment Algorithm

Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus Overview

Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus (CLE) is a chronic, autoimmune disease affecting the skin, which belongs to the family of lupus erythematosus, where the symptoms are restricted to the skin. Lupus Erythematosus (LE) is a chronic, autoimmune disease that affects multiple body organs and systems with a broad spectrum of symptoms. About the skin, there are lupus-specific skin lesions and non-specific skin lesions. Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus and severe systemic LE are on one end of the spectrum. Both of them can occur together and separately.

There are three broad types of cutaneous lupus: Acute, Subacute, and Chronic Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus. The prototypical example of acute cutaneous lupus is the malar rash. Subacute cutaneous lupus (SCLE) usually involves rashes in sun-exposed areas, and this generally does not lead to scarring. Chronic cutaneous lupus can be subdivided into several cutaneous findings, including discoid, tumidus, profundus, and chilblains. The hallmark condition of chronic cutaneous lupus is discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE).

Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus Diagnosis

To properly diagnose cutaneous manifestations of Lupus Erythematosus, the physician must first correctly classify the subtype and exclude systemic involvement of the disease. Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus diagnosis should be based on the findings of patient history, clinical exam, laboratory studies, serology, histology, and direct immunofluorescence (DIF) exam of skin biopsies. Serology is routinely obtained at baseline to assess systemic involvement as well as guidance among the subsets of Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus.

The histopathological picture for diagnosing Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus is the golden standard combined with clinical and serological pictures. A biopsy cannot confidently discriminate between the three main subsets of Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus since these will all show interface dermatitis.

A serological test of ANA and extractable nuclear antigens (ENAs) should be performed at baseline to assess possible systemic involvement. A routine blood and biochemistry test, including a urinalysis for proteinuria, should be performed. A visual check should also be performed before starting medication if antimalarial are considered.

Diagnosing Acute Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus requires proper sub-type classification through a combination of physical examination, laboratory studies, histology, and antibody serology. Also, direct immunofluorescence and photo-provocation may confirm the diagnosis in some specific cases to exclude systemic disease.

In the case of Sub-acute Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus, diagnosis is mainly based on clinical features and confirmed by histopathology. Severe systemic disease is less common in these patients. Also, for all the different Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus sub-types, a very detailed skin examination continues to be fundamental to properly diagnose all the cutaneous manifestations of LE and differentiate other skin conditions with skin biopsies.

Further details related to country-based variations are provided in the report.

Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus Treatment

According to current guidelines, management of cutaneous lupus erythematosus involves a combination of topical and systemic drugs, fairly similar for the different subtypes. Although consensus over the treatment and guidelines has succeeded over the years, no specific drugs have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Most of the medications for Cutaneous lupus erythematosushave been adapted from SLE treatment, but the existing literature is limited to small studies, and evidence often lacks. As drugs that have proven effective in systemic disease may not be effective in cutaneous disease, the treatment of refractory cutaneous lupus erythematosus is particularly challenging, as it is difficult to achieve a consensus on the appropriate progression of treatment beyond first- and second-line treatment options.

The available current treatments are immunosuppressants, with possible side effects; a thoughtful approach is mandatory to select the most appropriate drug better. General recommendations include sun protection, smoking cessation, vitamin D implementation, withdrawal of photosensitizing drugs, and avoidance of isomorphic trigger factors. Female patients are also recommended to avoid hormonal contraception containing estrogen and estrogen replacement therapies. These measures are crucial to prevent refractory cutaneous lupus erythematosus. Studies on the photo-protective habits of lupus patients have shown an increased frequency of sunscreen utilization over the years. However, not all patients with cutaneous lupus erythematosus use daily sun protection; not all apply the right dose, and not all re-apply sunscreen during the day.

Accordingly, active smoking has been associated with cutaneous lupus erythematosus severity, with a lower risk of long-term cutaneous lupus erythematosus remission. Although it is known that it decreases the efficacy of systemic treatment, the impact of tobacco on the efficacy of antimalarial may be caused by an increase in the severity of the disease more than by resistance in smokers.

Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus Epidemiology

Emerging Drugs

Litifilimab: Biogen

Litifilimab (known as BIIB059), discovered and developed in-house by Biogen scientists, is a humanized IgG1 monoclonal antibody targeting BDCA2 and is being investigated for the potential treatment of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus. BDCA2 is a receptor predominantly expressed on a subset of human immune cells called pDCs. The binding of litifilimab to BDCA2 has been shown to reduce the production of pro-inflammatory molecules by pDCs.

The drug is being evaluated in Phase II/III (NCT05531565, AMETHYST) in participants with active subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus and/or chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus with or without systemic manifestations and who are refractory and/or intolerant to antimalarial therapy. The study is anticipated to be complete by July 2026.

The drug is expected to launch by 2027 for Subacute Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus (SCLE) and/or Chronic Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus (CCLE) and would have first mover advantage. Moreover, it is expected to cater to the major cutaneous lupus erythematosus patient pool. A subgroup of patients with or without systemic manifestations and refractory and/or intolerant to antimalarial therapy are included in undergoing clinical trials. The overall drug could fetch the maximum market share in the cutaneous lupus erythematosus market space.

SOTYKTU (deucravacitinib): Bristol-Myers Squibb

SOTYKTU (deucravacitinib) is a selective, allosteric inhibitor of tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2). TYK2 is a member of the Janus kinase (JAK) family. It is in the Phase II trial (NCT04857034) in participants with active discoid and/or subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus with or without SLE that is not well-controlled with SOC. The drug is expected to be the second largest market share getter in the cutaneous lupus erythematosus treatment market space.

Note: Detailed emerging therapies assessment will be provided in the final report.

Drug Class Insights

Antimalarials mainly dominate the existing Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus treatment. Other classes (off-label), such as glucocorticoids, systemic immunomodulators (MTX, Belimumab, and others), biologics (rituximab, IVIG), etc., have an impressive presence.

Moreover, the upcoming treatment landscape is poised to expand further after new classes emerge, such as biologics, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, and other agents.

Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus Market Outlook

Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus treatment in the US is entering a new era with changing dynamics. Apart from antimalarial, no targeted drugs have been approved by the US FDA to treat Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus. The current treatment approach is concentrated on symptomatic management of the disease burden with off-label therapies and considering recommended general protective agents.

It is worth mentioning that the 2021 British Association of Dermatologists Guidelines for the Management of People with Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus presently recommends the treatment for moderate-severe Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus includes starting treatment with topical glucocorticoids and calcineurin inhibitors for the mild Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus. For moderate-severe Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus patients, recommended therapies include systemic glucocorticoids, systemic immunomodulators, biologics, and others. Moreover, antimalarials will be added as approved treatment agents.

The current market has been segmented into different commonly used drugs based on the prevailing treatment pattern across the 7MM and China, presenting minor variations in the overall prescription pattern. Glucocorticoids, Immunomodulators, biologics, etc., are the major drugs covered in the forecast model.

The expected launch of upcoming therapies and greater integration of early patient screening, medication in secondary care and other clinical settings, research on best methods for implementation, and an upsurge in awareness will eventually facilitate the development of effective treatment options. However, there are a few roadblocks regarding the timely diagnosis and treatment of these patients; for instance, generics dominate a major share of the market being used as off-label therapy. These factors often become a hindrance when adopting newer therapies.

Key players, such as new therapies, are in development for cutaneous lupus erythematosus, including Biogen (litifilimab), Horizon Therapeutics (daxdilimab), and Bristol-Myers Squibb (deucravacitinib).
  • The total market size of cutaneous lupus erythematosus in the 7MM and China is approximately USD 580 million in 2022 and is projected to increase during the forecast period (2023-2032).
  • The market size in the 7MM and China will increase at a CAGR of 7.2% due to the increasing treated pool of the cutaneous lupus erythematosus and the launch of the emerging therapy.
  • Among EU4 countries, the UK accounts for the maximum market size in 2022, while Spain occupied the bottom of the ladder in 2022.
  • By 2032, among all the emerging therapies, the highest revenue is expected to be generated by litifilimab followed by deucravacitinib in the 7MM and China.

Qualitative Analysis

The publisher performs qualitative and market Intelligence analysis using various approaches, such as SWOT and Conjoint Analysis. In the SWOT analysis, strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats in terms of disease diagnosis, patient awareness, patient burden, competitive landscape, cost-effectiveness, and geographical accessibility of therapies are provided. These pointers are based on the analyst's discretion and assessment of the patient burden, cost analysis, and existing and evolving treatment landscape.

Conjoint analysis analyzes multiple approved and emerging therapies based on relevant attributes such as safety, efficacy, administration frequency, administration route, and order of entry. Scoring is given based on these parameters to analyze the effectiveness of therapy.

In efficacy, the trial's primary and secondary outcome measures are evaluated; for instance, in Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus, one of the most important primary outcome measures is the Cutaneous lupus disease area and severity index (CLASI), which measures mainly disease activity and disease-induced damage. Additionally, cutaneous lupus activity-investigator global assessment (CLA-IGA) is also another measure, like many other outcome measures.

Both EMA and the FDA believe the endpoint in Phase II/III clinical trials should be tailored to the drug in question, and the benefit should outweigh the risk, allowing subsequent drug development. Given that Cutaneous lupus disease area and severity index (CLASI) is the preferred primary endpoint for Phase III clinical trials. Thus, Phase II trials should look for an early signal of finite treatment efficacy. A decrease in Cutaneous lupus disease area and severity index (CLASI) was proposed as a clinically meaningful endpoint for Phase II trials.

Further, the therapies' safety is evaluated wherein the acceptability, tolerability, and adverse events are majorly observed, and it sets a clear understanding of the side effects posed by the drug in the trials. In addition, the scoring is also based on the route of administration, order of entry and designation, probability of success, and the addressable patient pool for each therapy. According to these parameters, the final weightage score and the ranking of the emerging therapies are decided.

Market Access and Reimbursement

In the US healthcare system, both Public and Private health insurance coverage are included. Also, Medicare and Medicaid are the largest government-funded programs in the US. The major healthcare programs, including Medicare, Medicaid, the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP), and the state and federal health insurance marketplaces, are overseen by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). Other than these, Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs), third-party organizations that provide services, and educational programs to aid patients are also present.

HAS uses the ratings of ASMR for improvement in existing therapies and SMR for a new drug. An ASMR rating is assigned based on the drug's improvement of medical benefit compared to the current standard of care. ASMR I, II, and III mean faster market access with price notification instead of negotiation and consistent price all over Europe, ASMR IV means that the drug is to be priced equal to the comparator, and ASMR V rating means that the drug is to be priced lower than the comparator. However, an SMR rating is given on the product's medical benefit to determine whether the drug should be reimbursed. A 65-100%, 30%, 15%, and 0% reimbursement is given to drugs with SMR ratings of important, moderate, mild, and insufficient, respectively.

The report further provides detailed insights on the country-wise accessibility and reimbursement scenarios, cost-effectiveness scenario of approved therapies, programs making accessibility easier and out-of-pocket costs more affordable, insights on patients insured under federal or state government prescription drug programs, etc.
