On-label persistence in psoriasis after switching to guselkumab, tumor necrosis factor inhibitors, interleukin-17 inhibitors, or apremilast from other advanced therapies. (PubMed, J Dermatolog Treat)
At 12, 18, and 24 months after the start of the maintenance phase, respectively, on-label persistence was 190%, 180%, and 179% more likely on guselkumab versus SC TNFi; 78%, 87%, and 91% more likely on guselkumab versus SC IL-17i; and 187%, 199%, and 193% more likely on guselkumab versus apremilast (all p < 0.001). Patients experiencing suboptimal outcomes with other psoriasis-indicated advanced therapies achieved higher on-label persistence after switching to guselkumab, raising the potential for improved disease control relative to other treatment options.
