Retrospective Analysis in Patients With Moderate to Severe Plaque Psoriasis Treated With Tildrakizumab: Real-Life Clinical Data

: Interleukin (IL)-23 antagonists have shown great efficacy with minimal side effect profile in clinical trial data for the treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. As of yet, there have been no published data regarding real-world patients who have received tildrakizumab therapy. : To analyze real-world efficacy and safety of tildrakizumab in patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. : A retrospective chart review was performed at a large urban academic medical center for all patients treated with tildrakizumab for moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. Demographic information, Psoriasis Area and Severity Indexs(PASIs) from initial presentation and 12-month follow-up, comorbidities, and any possible adverse events were collected and analyzed statistically. : 30 patients on tildrakizumab therapy were included in the analysis. Overall, the mean ± standard deviation of the PASIs was 15.8 ± 11.8 at initial visit and 1.5 ± 2.9 at 12-month follow-up (P < .001). No serious adverse events were reported. : Tildrakizumab has shown efficacy in clinical trials and this real-world cohort for the treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis with a good safety profile. Future studies should be done to assess the efficacy of tildrakizumab compared with other IL-23 inhibitors.
