In a large pool of Phase 2b/3 trial data, the incidence rate of uveitis with bimekizumab over 2034.4 patient years (PYs) remained low at 1.2/100 PYs, suggesting bimekizumab may be an appropriate treatment option for patients with axSpA and uveitis. Compared with placebo, bimekizumab had a lower incidence rate of uveitis in patients with and without a history of uveitis.

Bimekizumab therapy was associated with a rapid and sustained improvement in PASI response and IGA score in patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. Dual inhibition of IL-17A/F with bimekizumab can affect a more durable response in PsO patients than sole IL-17A inhibition. Gordon et al. compared the safety and efficacy of two different maintenance dosing schedules, in addition to the effects of treatment withdrawal in the 52-week BE READY trial.

High levels of clinical responses were seen throughout the first 48 weeks with bimekizumab treatment. These were maintained to Week 96 in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque PsO.
