Objectives: Scanty data on the anti- SARS-CoV-2 IgG level decay after two-dose BNT162b2 vaccination have been published in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) on TNF inhibitors (TNFi). Similarly, no reports on the immunogenicity of a booster dose in such patients have been provided yet.We aimed to investigate the IgG level decay after two-dose BNT162b2 vaccination and the immunogenicity and safety of the booster dose in PsA patients on TNFi.
