This study systematically reviews existing data on the efficacy of Tyrosine Kinase 2 (TYK2) inhibitors in comparison to placebo or standard treatments for therapeutic benefit and improving quality of life in dermatological diseases. Seventeen records representing 13 clinical trials, one matching-adjusted indirect comparison, and one case study were included. Results indicate that Deucravacitinib is superior to placebo, Apremilast and Adalimumab in treating adult patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis and superior to placebo in the treatment of adults with systemic lupus erythematosus.

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is an autoinflammatory condition characterized by abscesses, inflammatory nodules, and tunnels in intertriginous sites of the body. The pathogenesis of HS involves follicular occlusion in combination with environmental, genetic, hormonal, and metabolic factors. HS lesions are characterized by an influx of neutrophils, histiocytes, B and T cells, and upregulation of proinflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1, interleukin-17, and interferons.
