Deucravacitinib shows superior efficacy and safety in cutaneous lupus erythematosus compared to various biologics and small molecules - A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Novel therapies for cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) demonstrated efficacy and safety in previous trials. However, data on the comparison of these treatments is still lacking, limiting their integration into clinical practice. Therefore, our aim is to perform a systematic review and network meta-analysis to compare the efficacy and safety of novel systemic therapies in CLE.

Safety and Efficacy Analysis of Targeted and Immune Combination Therapy in Advanced Melanoma-A Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis.

The combinations of BRAF inhibitor-based targeted therapies with immune checkpoint inhibitors currently represent less common therapeutic approaches in advanced melanoma. The aim of this study was to assess the safety and efficacy of currently available melanoma treatments by conducting a systematic review and network meta-analysis. Four databases were systematically searched for randomized clinical studies that included patients with advanced/metastatic melanoma receiving chemotherapy, immune checkpoint inhibitors, BRAF/MEK inhibitor therapy, or combinations thereof.

Seroconversion after anti-SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccinations among moderate-to-severe psoriatic patients receiving systemic biologicals-Prospective observational cohort study.

It is unclear whether biological antipsoriatic therapies affect seroconversion after messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA)-based antisevere acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (anti-SARS-CoV-2) vaccinations. To assess antibody formation and the incidence of side effects after anti-SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccinations in psoriatic patients receiving different biologicals compared to healthy controls. 102 moderate-to-severe psoriatic patients (56.

Impact of Interleukin-17 Inhibitor Therapy on Arterial Intima-media Thickness among Severe Psoriatic Patients.

Background: Psoriasis is frequently accompanied by cardiovascular diseases based on the shared immunopathogenic pathway. Authors determined the effect of interleukin (IL)-17 inhibitor therapy on arterial intima-media thickness (IMT) among severe psoriatic patients.

Methods: Thirty-one severe psoriatic patients were enrolled.
