Psoriatic Arthritis – Emerging Therapies – Xeljanz (tofacitinib) PSA – Wave 3 (US)
Xeljanz is the first-in-class JAK inhibitor approved for psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and the only other oral targeted therapy besides Celgene’s PDE-4 inhibitor, Otezla, approved for this indication. In recent years, multiple new therapies have been approved for the treatment of PsA. However, Xeljanz’s unique MOA, oral administration, and strong efficacy warrant the attention of both rheumatologists and dermatologists. The Emerging Therapy series in psoriatic arthritis includes three waves that will track the awareness, trial, and usage of Xeljanz since its approval in December 2017 for the treatment of PsA. In addition, the series will examine physician-anticipated future trends in PsA treatment, particularly Xeljanz’s uptake, as well as assess Pfizer’s promotional efforts.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Emerging Therapies captures U.S. physicians’ awareness, perceptions, and usage of the launched product at one, six, and twelve months postlaunch, as well as the current and future impact on competitor therapies and the overall market.
