Psoriasis | Treatment Algorithms: Claims Data Analysis | Adult Psoriasis | US | 2025

The treatment of adult psoriasis represents an increasingly lucrative market for nonconventional systemic therapies in the moderate to severe space, for which conventional systemic and topical treatments are insufficient. The launch of newer, more-effective biologics (e.g., Eli Lilly’s IL-17 inhibitor Taltz, AbbVie’s latest-in-class IL-23 inhibitor Skyrizi, UCB’s IL-17 A/F dual inhibitor Bimzelx) has eroded the market share of long-established biologics such as AbbVie’s TNF-alpha inhibitor Humira, Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine’s IL-12/23 inhibitor Stelara, and Novartis’s IL-17 inhibitor Cosentyx. The emergence of multiple biosimilars of adalimumab is also increasing the competition in this market. Amgen’s PDE-4 inhibitor Otezla, the only oral targeted therapy for many years, is firmly enduring the competition from Sotyktu, an oral TYK2 inhibitor that showed clinical superiority to Otezla in two head-to-head trials.
