Horizon scan: State-of-the-art therapeutics for psoriatic arthritis.

Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a common immune-mediated inflammatory disease (IMID) that can present with a heterogenous clinical phenotype. The advent of advanced therapies has substantially improved patient outcomes, but many patients still have suboptimal or unsustained response, resulting in morbidity, structural damage and functional impairment. There remains a need for better therapeutic options and precision medicine approaches to improve outcomes for patients with PsA. This review synthesises recently approved the state-of-the-art therapeutics for PsA, including inhibitors of IL-23, Janus kinase (JAK), tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) and dual-target IL-17A/F. The evidence base for emerging therapeutics, including MK-2 inhibitors, nano-IL-17 inhibitors, nanobodies and other dual-target therapies for PsA is also reviewed. Potential future therapeutic strategies and unmet research needs are discussed.
