Key clinical point: Interleukin-17 (IL-17) inhibitors were associated with higher treatment persistence than tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors or IL-12/23 inhibitors in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) who initiated treatment with biologics.
Major finding: Treatment persistence was higher with IL-17 inhibitors than TNF inhibitors (weighted hazard ratio [HR] 0.70; P < .001) or IL-12/23 inhibitor (weighted HR 0.69; P < .001); however, IL-12/23 and TNF inhibitors showed similar persistence (P = .70).
Study details: This nationwide cohort study included 16,892 adults with psoriasis and 6531 adults with PsA who initiated first-line treatment with TNF, IL-12/23, or IL-17 inhibitors.
Disclosures: The study did not report any source of funding. P Claudepierre reported receiving consulting fees and serving as an investigator for several pharmaceutical companies.
