Brief Summary
This is a phase IV, 12-month observational, prospective, open-label, multi-center study that will be conducted across approximately 50 sites in Canada for an estimated study duration of 32 months. All eligible adult participants who are enrolling into the SILIQ Patient Support Program (PSP) and initiating brodalumab as per routine care may be offered participation in the study. If the participant agrees, their verbal consent and details will be entered into the study platform by the enrolling physician so that the participant can access the electronic informed consent form. Participants who meet the eligibility criteria and provide electronic informed consent will be enrolled in the study. The study observation period will be 12 months (±15 days). Data will be collected on approximately 500 participants across academic and community centers.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (4)
The percentage change from baseline of the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) at 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months post-brodalumab initiation.
The Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) measure is self administered and includes domains of daily activities, leisure, personal relationships, symptoms and feelings, treatment, and work/school. Each item has four response categories, ranging from 0 (not at all or not relevant) to 3 (very much) assessing the impact of the disease over the last week. The DLQI total score is a sum of the 10 questions. Scores range from 0 to 30 and higher scores indicate greater health-related quality-of-life impairment.
baseline, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months
The percentage change from baseline of the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment: Psoriasis (WPAI:PSO) component scores at 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months post-brodalumab initiation.
The Work Productivity and Activity Impairment: Psoriasis (WPAI:PSO) is a validated self-reported 6-item questionnaire that allows quantitative assessment of the effects of PsO on work productivity, daily activities, and classroom impairment. Scores are calculated as percentages of hours worked and percentages of productivity at work on workdays for respondents who are employed at the time of questionnaire completion.
baseline, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months
The percentage change from baseline of the Health Utility Index (HUI2) at 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months post-brodalumab initiation.
The Health Utility Index (HUI2) is a 15-item questionnaire that allows researchers to classify the health status of patients and consists of seven attributes (sensation, mobility, emotion, cognition, self-care, pain, and fertility). Health state levels for descriptive responses are converted to health utilities scores using single- and multi-attribute utility functions that consist of look-up tables and mathematical formulae. Utility values for HUI2 range from -0.03 to 1.00, where a value of 1.00 indicates perfect health and a score of 0.00 corresponds to death. Negative scores represent health states considered to be worse than death.
baseline, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months
The mean Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication (TSQM) domain scores at baseline, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months post-brodalumab initiation.
The self-administered Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication (TSQM) questionnaire is along 4 dimensions: medication effectiveness, side effects of use, convenience of use, and global/overall satisfaction. The scale for TSQM scores ranges from 0 (extremely dissatisfied) to 100 (extremely satisfied).
baseline, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months
Secondary Outcomes (25)
The number and percentage of patients on brodalumab at baseline, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months post-initiation by key patient demographics and clinical characteristics.
baseline, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months
The number and percentage of patients that initiated brodalumab achieving a Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) response of 75, 90 or 100 at 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months post-brodalumab initiation.
baseline, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months
The number and percentage of patients that initiated brodalumab achieving an Static Physicians Global Assessment (sPGA) score of 0 or 1 at 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months post-brodalumab initiation.
baseline, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months
The number and percentage of patients that initiated brodalumab achieving a 2 grade or more improvement compared to baseline of the Static Physicians Global Assessment (sPGA) score at 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months post-brodalumab initiation.
baseline, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months
The percentage change from baseline of the Psoriasis Symptom Inventory (PSI) at 3, 6, and 12 months post-brodalumab initiation.
baseline, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months

Study Arms (2)
Brodalumab initiator
Eligible adult participants who are enrolling into the SILIQ (brodalumab) Patient Support Program (PSP) and initiating brodalumab as per routine care.
Matched cohort
Participants treated with other therapies, with similar characteristics as the subgroup (participants who can be linked to an administrative health services database) of brodalumab treated participants such as age, gender/sex, comorbidities, and prior biologic experience.
Interventions
Eligibility Criteria
Participants initiating brodalumab as part of routine clinical care and who meet all of the inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria are eligible to participate in the study.
You may qualify if:
- Aged ≥ 18 years old at the time of verbal consent to participate in the study.
- Initiating brodalumab as part of routine clinical care through the SILIQ (brodalumab) Patient Support Program (PSP) for the treatment of plaque psoriasis but has not yet received their first dose. Decision to treat with brodalumab must have been reached prior to and independently of recruitment in the study.
- Must be able to read, understand, and communicate in English or French.
- Willing and able to provide informed consent on an online platform using an Independent Ethics Committee (IEC) or Institutional Review Board (IRB) approved electronic Informed Consent Form (ICF) in English or French.
You may not qualify if:
- Not willing or able to complete ePROs (electronic Patient Reported Outcomes) on an online platform (using a computer or mobile device).
- Participation in brodalumab phase IV study (NCT04149587).
- Participation in an interventional clinical trial concurrently or within the last 30 days prior to providing verbal consent to participate in this study.
- Patient with Crohn's disease or with clinically significant hypersensitivity to brodalumab or to any of the excipients or component of the container (contraindications as per the Product Monograph).
- Presence of any other serious and/or uncontrolled medical condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, prohibits the patient from participating in the study.
