a

Total number of patients originally included in the study (n = 1048); for the primary outcome of risk difference at 6 months (n = 942); and for the secondary outcome of risk difference at 3 months (n = 1027).

b

Calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared.

c

Week 28 data provided by the authors.

d

In the randomized clinical trials used for this study, patients were randomized to ustekinumab vs placebo (PHOENIX-1 and PHOENIX-2) or to ustekinumab vs etanercept (ACCEPT). Patients were not stratified according to genotype before randomization. Of those patients randomized to receive ustekinumab, a subset of patients was later included for pharmacogenetic study of HLA-C*06:02.

e

HLA-C*06:02–positive patients: 44 (13); HLA-C*06:02–negative patients: 50 (12).

f

HLA-C*06:02–positive patients: 16 (7); HLA-C*06:02–negative patients: 17 (9).

g

HLA-C*06:02–positive patients: 26 (4); HLA-C*06:02–negative patients: 27 (5).
