Psoriatic Arthritis
An Introduction to Psoriatic Arthritis
Psoriatic arthritis is a chronic, progressive, inflammatory form of arthritis, which develops in up to 30% of people with psoriasis and is associated with increased risk of systemic inflammatory disease. Treatment options include nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), corticosteroid injections, disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) and biologic therapies, including inhibitors of tumour necrosis factor (TNF) α, interleukin (IL)-12, IL-23 and IL-17. Recently approved therapies include the Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors, and other promising agents in development include tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Future challenges include personalised medicine, earlier diagnosis and achieving a low-level of disease activity.
