The effect of etanercept on CRP psoriasis has not been previously examined.The primary objective was to examine the levels from baseline week 12 compared with placebo. Secondary objectives included assessment relationships between body mass index (BMI), statin drug use, Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) scores.A retrospective analysis conducted patients who participated a...
Patients with psoriasis value rapid and complete skin clearance. No head‐to‐head studies have focused on early responses to interleukin (IL)‐17 vs. IL‐23 inhibitors. To compare clearance by the IL‐17A inhibitor ixekizumab IL‐23p19 guselkumab. IXORA‐R, a 24‐week, randomized, double‐blinded study, enrolled adults moderate‐to‐severe plaque [static Physician's Global Assessment of Disease (sPGA) score ≥ 3, Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) 12, 10% body surface area]. were randomized (1 : 1)...
