To date, there have been few direct real-world comparisons of the efficacy of different biologics in patients with moderate to severe psoriasis.

This is an ongoing study, with evaluations of partial samples currently available.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<!--more-->\n\n<p>Although randomized controlled clinical trials (RCTs) are considered the gold standard for assessing the efficacy and safety of potential therapies, real-world data is also needed to reflect the heterogeneous patient population in everyday practice [2]. The PSoHo cohort study included patients from 23 countries who had been diagnosed with moderate to severe psoriasis at least 6 months before baseline and who either started biologic therapy or switched to another biologic agent as part of routine clinical care [5]. Patients were grouped into a cohort that received anti-IL-17A antibodies (ixekizumab, secukinumab) and a cohort that was treated with other biologics (brodalumab, adalimumab, certolizumab pegol, etanercept, infliximab, ustekinumab, guselkumab, risankizumab and tildrakizumab).  <\/p>\n\n<h3 id=\"subgroup-specific-efficacy-comparisons-at-week-12\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Subgroup-specific efficacy comparisons at week 12  <\/h3>\n\n<p>In a publication published in the journal <em>Advances in Therapy 2023 <\/em>, analyses of a subsample of the PSoHo data set are reported.

Treatment groups or biologics cohorts with fewer than 100 patients were not included [2]. In addition to the proportion of patients who achieved <em>Psoriasis Area and Severity Index<\/em> (PASI) 90 and\/or <em>static Physician Global Assessment<\/em> (sPGA) 0\/1, the subgroup-specific PASI100 and PASI90 response rates at week 12 were calculated.  <\/p>\n\n<h3 id=\"psa-subgroup-comparatively-high-response-rates-to-anti-il-17-ak\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">PsA subgroup: comparatively high response rates to anti-IL-17-Ak  <\/h3>\n\n<p>As shown in <strong>Table 2 <\/strong>, patients in the anti-IL-17A cohort were significantly more likely to reach the primary endpoint (sPGA 0\/1 and\/or PASI90) at week 12 compared to the other biologics cohorts [2]. This also applies to the other subgroups, with the exception of the ethnicity category. With regard to the subgroup of patients with comorbid psoriatic arthritis (PsA), the anti-IL-17A-Ak showed a 4-fold and 3-fold increased probability for PASI100 and PASI90, respectively. This indicates that psoriasis patients with joint involvement particularly benefit from treatment with IL-17A inhibitors. With regard to the other subgroups, any differences across all clinical outcome parameters were far less striking. For example, there were no significant gender-related differences in efficacy, which is consistent with a Spanish registry study [6]. Various biologics also showed similar efficacy between the age groups of &lt;65- and \u226565-year-olds in the present subgroup analysis, although the proportion of patients aged \u226565 was relatively low [2]. The study situation is heterogeneous regarding the extent to which age influences the treatment effects of biologic therapy for psoriasis [7,8].  <\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/tab2_DP5_s47.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1469\" height=\"2257\" data-src=\"https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/tab2_DP5_s47.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-368793 lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1469px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1469\/2257;width:500px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/tab2_DP5_s47.png 1469w, https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/tab2_DP5_s47-800x1229.png 800w, https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/tab2_DP5_s47-1160x1782.png 1160w, https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/tab2_DP5_s47-1333x2048.png 1333w, https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/tab2_DP5_s47-120x184.png 120w, https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/tab2_DP5_s47-90x138.png 90w, https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/tab2_DP5_s47-320x492.png 320w, https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/tab2_DP5_s47-560x860.png 560w, https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/tab2_DP5_s47-240x369.png 240w, https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/tab2_DP5_s47-180x277.png 180w, https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/tab2_DP5_s47-640x983.png 640w, https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/tab2_DP5_s47-1120x1721.png 1120w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1469px) 100vw, 1469px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>The question of how a BMI &gt;30 <sup>kg\/m2<\/sup> influences the efficacy of biologics is also controversially discussed in the specialist literature. In the present PSoHo subsample, treatment with secukinumab or ixekizumab proved to be similarly effective to risankizumab in obese patients. The findings are also inconsistent regarding the extent to which a longer duration of illness influences clinical outcomes [7,9,10]. In the previous subsample, it had no major influence on the response rates whether the duration of the disease was less or more than 15 years. Patients with a longer duration of disease have often already undergone several biologic therapies and other systemic treatments [3]. The treatment of biologics-experienced patients remains a challenge [2]. It has been shown that the treatment discontinuation rate tends to be higher than in biologics-na\u00efve patients [2,4,10].<\/p>\n\n<p>Literature:<\/p>\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Masson RM, et al: Users of biologics in clinical practice: would they be eligible for phase III clinical studies?
