Long-term effectiveness and safety of risankizumab in patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis with and without cardiometabolic comorbidities: a single-center retrospective study.

Psoriasis is a chronic skin disease driven by immune system dysfunction and associated with increased cardiovascular risk and metabolic disorders. Risankizumab is an anti-interleukin-23 humanized monoclonal antibody approved for the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. We conducted a 3-year retrospective study to evaluate the effectiveness and the safety of risankizumab in patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis, comparing those with and without the presence of at least one cardiometabolic comorbidity (CMD).

Effectiveness of risankizumab in plaque psoriasis with involvement of difficult-to-treat areas: a real-world experience from two referral centers.

The management of plaque psoriasis that affects difficult-to-treat areas can be challenging. Biologics have become the treatment of choice for moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. However, there are limited data on their efficacy in difficult-to-treat sites (including scalp, palms/soles, nails and genitalia).
