Psoriatic Arthritis | Patient Profiler | US | 2017

The algorithms for treating psoriatic arthritis (PsA) are unique among rheumatic diseases because most PsA patients receive prior treatment by dermatologists for psoriasis, with many of the same therapies that are frequently used for PsA. Therefore, biologic and targeted synthetic DMARDs are more frequently used as early-line therapies after the diagnosis of PsA. Understanding the use of non-TNF inhibitors, namely, IL-12/23 inhibitors, IL-17 inhibitors, and PDE-4 inhibitors, is crucial for pharmaceutical companies to properly manage their brands in the PsA market. Analysis of claims data and electronic health records provides an objective lens to see how physicians prescribe therapies and what the clinic profiles of treated patients are.
