Introduction: The efficacy and safety of tildrakizumab for the treatment of plaque psoriasis were demonstrated by randomized clinical studies, but the reappraisal of prolonged experiences in the clinical practice helps to optimize the use of this biologic drug. The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term efficacy of tildrakizumab in patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis in the real world.
Methods: This is a long-term retrospective observational study in a real-life setting. Overall, 136 adult patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis and treated with tildrakizumab were included.
Results: One hundred percent reduction of Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI100) was reached by 21.7% of patients at 4 weeks of therapy and by 51.2% at week 16, and the proportion of patients with this improvement was between 66.9% and 64.5% from 36 weeks to 3 years. The mean PASI of the cohort progressively improved from 12.6 at baseline to 1.8 at week 36 and was stable at 1 year, 2 years and 3 years. We could not confirm a previous observation that patients naïve to biologic had a better response, but we observed that those with a short history of psoriasis had a higher probability of 90% PASI reduction (PASI90) or PASI 100 within 36 weeks, suggesting that early treatment could be useful.
Conclusion: This long-term observation in the real life of patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis receiving tildrakizumab 100 mg showed that PASI100 can be obtained in a high proportion of patients by week 36 and be maintained for up to 3 years.

Generalized Pustular Psoriasis (GPP) is a rare, severe, life-threatening form of psoriasis and often resistant to conventional systemic therapy. It can be induced by deficiency of interleukin (IL)-36 receptor antagonist. Treatment of patients with GPP is often difficult, and there is no consensus on the best options available to date.

Background: Recurrent Non-Tuberculous Mycobacterial Pulmonary Disease (NTM-PD) related to treatment with Secukinumab has not been previously documented.
Case Presentation: Despite adherence to treatment and avoiding hot springs, a plaque psoriasis patient experienced persistent NTM-PD relapses.
Conclusions: There is potential association between Secukinumab, an IL-17A inhibitor, and NTM disease, echoing anti-TNF biologics' NTM risk, indicating the urgent need for further research on pathogenic mechanisms and risk factors.

Psoriasis is a prevalent, chronic inflammatory disease characterized by abnormal skin plaques. To date, physical therapy, topical therapy, systemic therapy and biologic drugs are the most commonly employed strategies for treating psoriasis. Recently, many agents have advanced to clinical trials, and some anti-psoriasis drugs have been approved, including antibody drugs and small-molecule drugs.

Seborrheic dermatitis (SD) is an inflammatory skin disease with multifactorial etiology, involving genetic and environmental factors. Many conventional therapies for SD (ie, topical antifungals, topical corticosteroids) are associated with incomplete efficacy, frequent and sometimes rapid disease recurrence, and restrictions on duration of therapy and anatomic sites of application. This may be because they cannot target multiple disease processes and/or are limited by safety considerations.
