Poster presented at BRITISH ASSOCIATION OF DERMATOLOGISTS 99TH ANNUAL MEETING, LIVERPOOL, U.K

Biological therapies are used in the treatment of immunemediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs), including moderateto-severe psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis
(PsA) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Melanoma is a

Real-world discontinuation of ACI, CsA, FAE and MTX in patients with moderate-severe psoriasis is poorly characterised. The aim of this study was to determine whether treatment history affects the discontinuation rates of these therapies. The British...

Journal Article
Dand, N., Duckworth, M., Baudry, D., Russell, A., Curtis, C. J., Hyuck Lee, S., …Study Group, B. (2019). HLA-C*06:02 genotype is a predictive biomarker of biologic treatment response in psoriasis. Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 143(6), 2120-2130. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jaci.2018.11.038

BACKGROUND: Biologic therapies can be highly effective for the treatment of severe psoriasis, but response for individual patients can vary according to drug. Predictive biomarkers to guide treatment selection could improve patient outcomes and treat...
