New data show TREMFYA® (guselkumab) is the only IL-23 inhibitor proven to significantly inhibit progression of joint structural damage in active psoriatic arthritis

TREMFYA ® demonstrated two and a half times greater ability to inhibit joint structural damage versus placebo in the Phase 3b APEX study More than 40% of TREMFYA®-treated patients across both dose groups achieved ACR50 at Week 24 Improvement in both joint and skin symptoms reinforce TREMFYA® as a first-line treatment option with a proven safety profile for adults with active psoriatic arthritis BARCELONA, June 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ) today announced findings from the Phase 3b APEX study showing that TREMFYA® (guselkumab) significantly reduced both signs and symptoms of active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and inhibited progression of joint structural damage at 24 weeks compared to placebo.1 These data from a late-breaking abstract are among the 30 oral and poster presentations Johnson & Johnson is highlighting at the European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR) 2025 Congress. In the Phase 3b APEX study, TREMFYA® significantly inhibited progression of joint structural damage, including joint erosions and space narrowing, in patients with active PsA at Week 24 as assessed by the PsA modified van der Heijde-Sharp (vdH-S) score. The mean change from baseline to Week 24 in the modified van der Heijde-Sharp (vdH-S) score was 0.55 and 0.54 for patients receiving TREMFYA® every four weeks (Q4W) and every eight weeks (Q8W) respectively, compared with 1.35 in the placebo group (p=0.002 for Q4W and p<0.001 for Q8W dosing versus placebo, respectively). In the two TREMFYA® dose groups, 67% (Q4W) and 63% (Q8W) of patients experienced no radiographic progression, versus 53% in the placebo group.a,1 'In psoriatic arthritis, joint damage can begin early and progress quickly if left untreated, significantly impacting a patient's ability to move, work and maintain independence,' said Philip J. Mease, MD, Director of Rheumatology Research at the Swedish Medical Center and study investigator.b 'The results of the APEX study are promising as the data show guselkumab to be the only IL-23 inhibitor in its class that has inhibited the progression of structural damage in patients, providing new clinical insights for the psoriatic community and underscoring the need for safe, effective options that address the full burden of disease.' TREMFYA® also improved both joint and skin symptoms in patients with active PsA. The data from the APEX study were consistent with the well-established safety profile of TREMFYA®, with no new safety signals identified.1 'With these results from the APEX study, TREMFYA has set a new bar for joint preservation as the only IL-23 inhibitor proven to significantly inhibit structural damage in active psoriatic arthritis, an inflammatory arthritis that can develop in up to 30% of people living with psoriasis,' said Terence Rooney, Vice President, Rheumatology Disease Area Leader, Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine. 'The efficacy and safety profile of TREMFYA offers psoriatic healthcare providers and patients an innovative option for disease control.' TREMFYA® is the first and only fully-human, dual-acting monoclonal antibody approved to treat PsA that blocks IL-23 while also binding to CD64, a receptor on cells that produce IL-23. IL-23 is a cytokine secreted by activated monocyte/macrophages and dendritic cells that is known to be a driver of immune-mediated diseases including active psoriatic arthritis.2,3,4,5,6 Editor's notes: a. TREMFYA is not approved for Q4W dosing in the U.S. b. Dr. Philip J. Mease is a paid consultant for Johnson & Johnson. He has not been compensated for any media work. c. ACR20/50 response is defined as both at least 20/50 percent improvement from baseline in the number of tender and number of swollen joints, and a 20/50 percent improvement from baseline in three of the following five criteria: patient GA, physician GA, functional ability measure (HAQ-DI), patient-reported pain using a visual analog scale, and erythrocyte sedimentation rate or C-reactive protein.7 d. The IGA is a five-point scale with a severity score ranging from 0 to 4, where 0 indicates clear, 1 is minimal, 2 is mild, 3 is moderate and 4 indicates severe disease.8 ABOUT THE APEX STUDY ( NCT04882098 ) APEX is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in patients with active PsA who are biologic naïve and have had an inadequate response to standard therapies (e.g., csDMARDs, apremilast, and/or NSAIDs). The treatment duration includes a 24-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled period, followed by a 24-week active treatment period, followed by a 12-week safety follow-up period. For patients who agree to enter the long-term extension, an additional 2 years of active treatment period is scheduled prior to the final safety follow-up.9 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).10,11,12 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.13 Nearly half of patients with PsA experience moderate fatigue and about one-third suffer from severe fatigue as measured by the modified fatigue severity scale.14 In patients with PsA, comorbidities such as obesity, cardiovascular disease, anxiety and depression are often present.15 Studies show up to 30% of people with plaque PsO also develop PsA.11 ABOUT TREMFYA® (guselkumab) Developed by Johnson & Johnson, TREMFYA® is the first approved fully-human, dual-acting monoclonal antibody designed to neutralize inflammation at the cellular source by blocking IL-23 and binding to CD64 (a receptor on cells that produce IL-23). 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. TREMFYA® is a prescription medicine approved in the U.S. to treat: TREMFYA® is approved in Europe, Canada, Japan, and a number of other countries for the treatment of adults with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis and for the treatment of adults with active psoriatic arthritis. Johnson & Johnson maintains exclusive worldwide marketing rights to TREMFYA®.

Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ) Increases Dividend and Reports Strong Q1 Earnings Growth

Johnson & Johnson recently announced a 4.8% increase in its quarterly dividend and released positive Phase 3 clinical data for icotrokinra, an oral treatment for plaque psoriasis. These events occurred alongside solid earnings reports, with a significant rise in net income and earnings per share compared to the previous year. While the company's stock price increased by 6.64% over the last quarter, the broader market also trended upward, climbing 5.9% in the past year. These company developments likely complemented the overall market movements and investor sentiment, rather than diverging from broader trends. You should learn about the 1 warning sign we've spotted with Johnson & Johnson. Outshine the giants: these 25 early-stage AI stocks could fund your retirement. Johnson & Johnson's recent dividend increase and positive Phase 3 clinical data for icotrokinra could significantly bolster investor confidence by enhancing perceptions of future earnings potential and revenue growth. The company's total return, including dividends, was 17.11% over the past five years, indicating steady but moderate financial performance. This is set against the backdrop of a one-year underperformance relative to the US Pharmaceuticals industry's 7% decline. Looking forward, these announcements could positively influence earnings forecasts, especially with expected boosts from TREMFYA and RYBREVANT within the Innovative Medicine segment. This aligns with strategic acquisitions and product launches that have been projected to grow revenue and expand market footprint. Despite these gains, competition and economic pressures remain considerations, particularly in international markets like China. Currently trading at US$150, the share price reflects a modest discount to the analyst consensus price target of US$171.11. This implies potential upside and suggests market expectations are still reconciling with Johnson & Johnson's future growth prospects. Revenue and earnings forecasts will likely incorporate these developments, while still being mindful of existing risks such as biosimilar competition and macroeconomic pressures.

Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ) Presents Promising Nipocalimab Data At AAN Annual Meeting

Johnson & Johnson experienced an 11% price increase over the last quarter. This movement coincided with several corporate developments, including the presentation of breakthrough research on nipocalimab at the American Academy of Neurology meeting, and the announcement of FDA fast track designations for its treatments. Additionally, the potential acquisition talks of Intra-Cellular Therapies and strong sales figures in Q4 2024 were pivotal in maintaining investor interest. Launches of new data concerning products like RYBREVANT and TREMFYA underscore the company's ongoing innovation amid fluctuating market conditions, evidenced by tariff uncertainties impacting broader indexes like the Dow Jones and S&P 500. Buy, Hold or Sell Johnson & Johnson? View our complete analysis and fair value estimate and you decide. Find companies with promising cash flow potential yet trading below their fair value. Over the past five years, Johnson & Johnson's total shareholder returns reached 44.46%, demonstrating substantial growth through a combination of share price appreciation and dividends. During this period, a series of strategic initiatives played a crucial role in this performance. Notable among these were key acquisitions in the MedTech and Innovative Medicine sectors, which expanded their market presence and product lines. The launch of promising treatments like TREMFYA for inflammatory diseases and RYBREVANT for lung cancer further fueled revenue growth. Additionally, consistent product launches, such as the COVID-19 vaccine, significantly contributed to their health sector's expansion and market resilience. Moreover, Johnson & Johnson's focus on innovation through research and development led to new FDA approvals, such as RYBREVANT for non-small cell lung cancer. Despite these achievements, challenges such as biosimilar competition and macroeconomic pressures in international markets like China remain. However, the company's strong dividend policy, marked by a recent US$1.24 per share payout, provided steady income to investors, reinforcing its robust long-term returns compared to market averages.
