SPRING HOUSE, Pa. (June 4, 2024) – Johnson & Johnson announced today new clinical and investigational data will be featured across 30 abstracts at the European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR) 2024 Congress (Vienna, Austria, June 12-15). Among the accepted data, 21 abstracts and presentations will feature TREMFYA® (guselkumab) and nine will feature nipocalimab, including a late-breaking abstract on new positive Phase 2 data in Sjögren’s disease.

“It is estimated that one in 10 individuals are living with an immune-mediated rheumatic disease. There is a clear need for additional treatment options that deliver sustained remission for patients,” said Terence Rooney, Vice President, Rheumatology Disease Area Leader, Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine.1 “The breadth of data to be presented at EULAR underscores our unwavering commitment to advance science and deliver transformational therapies for patients with rheumatic disease.”

With a nearly 30-year legacy pioneering the science of immunology, Johnson & Johnson continues to build upon its commitment to advance the field of rheumatology and is proud to present the latest data from the portfolio and pipeline at EULAR, which include:

About Psoriatic Arthritis

Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic, immune-mediated, inflammatory disease characterized by peripheral joint inflammation, enthesitis (pain where the bone, tendon and ligament meet), dactylitis (a type of inflammation in the fingers and toes that can result in a swollen, sausage-like appearance), axial disease and the skin lesions associated with plaque psoriasis (PsO).2,3,4 The disease causes pain, stiffness and swelling in and around the joints; it commonly appears between the ages of 30 and 50, but can develop at any age.5 Nearly half of patients with PsA experience moderate fatigue and about 30 percent suffer from severe fatigue as measured by the modified fatigue severity scale.6 In patients with PsA, comorbidities such as obesity, cardiovascular disease, anxiety and depression are often present.7 Studies show up to 30 percent of people with plaque PsO also develop PsA.4 Although the exact cause of PsA is unknown, genes, the immune system and environmental factors are all believed to play a role in disease onset.8

About Plaque Psoriasis

Plaque psoriasis (PsO) is an immune-mediated disease resulting in overproduction of skin cells, which causes inflamed, scaly plaques that may be itchy or painful.9 It is estimated that eight million Americans and more than 125 million people worldwide live with the disease.10 Nearly one-quarter of all people with plaque PsO have cases that are considered moderate to severe.9 Living with plaque PsO can be a challenge and impact life beyond a person’s physical health, including emotional health, relationships, and handling the stressors of life.11

About Ulcerative Colitis

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic disease of the large intestine, also known as the colon, in which the lining of the colon becomes inflamed and develops tiny open sores, or ulcers, that produce pus and mucus. It is the result of the immune system’s overactive response.12 Symptoms vary but may typically include loose and more urgent bowel movements, rectal bleeding or bloody stool, persistent diarrhea, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, weight loss, and fatigue. UC patients also have increased rates of depression.11

About Sjögren’s Disease (SjD)

Sjögren’s disease (SjD) is an autoantibody-driven disease for which no therapies are currently approved that treat the underlying and systemic nature of the disease.13 It is a chronic autoimmune disease that is estimated to impact as many as four million people worldwide, and it is nine times more common in women than men.14 SjD is characterized by autoantibody production, chronic inflammation, and lymphocytic infiltration of exocrine glandular systems. Most patients are affected by mucosal dryness (eyes, mouth, vagina), joint pain, and fatigue. Extraglandular manifestations are common and may impact multiple organ systems, including joints, lungs, kidneys, and the nervous system. Patients with SjD have a high risk of developing numerous associated conditions, including up to 20 times higher risk of developing B-cell lymphomas when compared to the general population. Disease burden can be as high as that of rheumatoid arthritis or systemic lupus erythematosus. It is usually associated with impaired quality of life and functional capacity.15,16

About Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathies

Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM), generally referred to as myositis, are a heterogeneous group of rare, chronic, autoimmune diseases that are characterized by progressive muscle weakness and damage to joints and major organs.17 It is thought to be caused by an overactive immune system that attacks the body’s own muscles, skin and other organs, but the specific cause of the disease is unknown.17 The most common symptom of IIM is muscle weakness in the large muscles of the shoulders, neck or hips and can result in difficulty performing typical daily-life activities such as swallowing, walking, driving, climbing stairs, rising from a seated position, turning over in bed and raising arms overhead.17 It is currently estimated that 5-10 people per million are diagnosed with a type of IIM each year.17

About Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Lupus is a chronic, inflammatory autoimmune disorder that can affect many different body systems, including joints, skin, heart, lungs, kidneys and brain.18 Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), the most common form of lupus, can range from mild to severe and is characterized by inflammation of any organ system including kidneys, nervous system, brain or brain vasculature, as well as potential hardening of the arteries or coronary artery disease.19 The disease most often affects women and disproportionately affects women of African American, Hispanic, Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (AAHPI) and Native American descent compared to Caucasian women.20 Lupus is estimated to affect at least 5 million people worldwide.21

About TREMFYA® (guselkumab)

Developed by Johnson & Johnson, TREMFYA® is the first approved fully-human dual-acting monoclonal antibody that blocks IL-23 by binding to the p19 subunit of IL-23 and binding to CD64, a receptor on cells that produce IL-23.22 IL-23 is an important driver of the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases.22 Findings for dual acting are limited to in vitro studies that demonstrate guselkumab binds to CD64, which is expressed on the surface of IL-23 producing cells in an inflammatory monocyte model. The clinical significance of this finding is not known.23,24,25,26

TREMFYA® is approved in the U.S.,22,27 and a number of other countries for the treatment of adults with moderate to severe plaque PsO who are candidates for injections or pills (systemic therapy) or phototherapy (treatment using ultraviolet light) and for the treatment of adult patients with active PsA.22 It is also approved in the EU for the treatment of moderate to severe plaque PsO in adults who are candidates for systemic therapy and for the treatment of active PsA in adult patients who have had an inadequate response or who have been intolerant to a prior disease-modifying antirheumatic drug therapy.28

Johnson & Johnson maintains exclusive worldwide marketing rights to TREMFYA®.

About Nipocalimab

Nipocalimab is an investigational, high-affinity, fully human, aglycosylated, effectorless, monoclonal antibody that aims to selectively block FcRn to reduce levels of circulating immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies, including autoantibodies and alloantibodies that underlie multiple conditions.29 Nipocalimab is the only FcRn blocker being studied across three key segments in the autoantibody space: Rare Autoantibody diseases (e.g., generalized myasthenia gravis in adults and children, chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy, warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia, and idiopathic inflammatory myopathies); Maternal Fetal diseases mediated by maternal alloantibodies (e.g., hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn and fetal and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia); and Prevalent Rheumatology (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögren’s disease, and systemic lupus erythematosus).30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38 Blockade of FcRn has the potential to reduce overall IgG including pathogenic alloantibody levels while preserving immune function without causing broad immunosuppression. Blockade of IgG binding to FcRn in the placenta is also believed to prevent transplacental transfer of maternal alloantibodies to the fetus.39,40
