The well-documented efficacy of biologic therapies has made them an increasingly popular choice for the treatment of psoriasis since the earliest agent was approved in 2003.
Since then, a range of different biologics targeting various cytokines involved in the development and maintenance of psoriasis have become available, but their introduction has brought new challenges. In the following videos Professor Diamant Tha, Professor Stefano Piaserico and Professor Ulrich Mrowietz reflect on what can be done to overcome these challenges and maximise the potential of these game-changing drugs.

In the “age of biologics”, is there still a place for non-biologic systemic therapies? Professor Wolf-Henning Boehncke and Dr Deepak Balak discuss the appropriate use of conventional treatments for patients with psoriasis, particularly those presenting with comorbidities, as well as information on their long-term safety and efficacy.
Managing psoriasis patients with non-biologic systemic therapies – Professor Wolf-Henning Boehncke (Switzerland)
The efficacy of biologics in the treatment of psoriasis is well-documented yet use of conventional treatments remains common in clinical practice, but why is this the case?

Severity definitions in psoriasis drive the clinical decision-making process but lack consistency across the field. Professor Peter van de Kerkhof, Professor Ulrich Mrowietz and Professor Luigi Naldi discuss the importance of establishing internationally agreed psoriasis severity definitions, and what is being done to ensure that this is achieved in the future.

Optimisation of psoriasis treatment strategies requires careful consideration of a number of patient specific factors, from co-morbidities to what really matters to the patient. Dr Esteban Daudén and Professor Matthias delve deep into how building a comprehensive patient profile can help inform treatment decisions and ultimately lead to improved patient outcomes. Meanwhile, Professor Wolf-Henning Boehncke conducts a workshop that puts this principle into practice.
