Drug Survival Associated With Effectiveness and Safety of Treatment With Guselkumab, Ixekizumab, Secukinumab, Ustekinumab, and Adalimumab in Patients With Psoriasis

The results of this cohort study suggest that guselkumab had the highest drug survival in BADBIR of the included biologics for treatment persistence that was associated with effectiveness, and guselkumab had highest drug survival for safety compared with other biologics except ustekinumab. Psoriatic arthritis, nail involvement, previous biologic exposure, and ethnicity were effect modifiers for biologics and their survival in association with treatment effectiveness. This information on longer-term treatment persistence, safety, and tolerability may help patients and their clinicians make an informed decision to initiate treatment with a biologic therapy.
