Abstract
- Background: Biologic switching is not uncommon in the treatment of psoriasis and is most often due to inadequate response of adverse events. Staying within or switching out of the class is still based on expert opinion but there are published data on intra-class switching with TNF-alpha and IL-17 inhibitors. Less is known about the IL-23 inhibitors because of their limited time in the market. We would like to present our experience with inadequate responders to tildrakizumab, a selective IL23 inhibitor, who were switched to an alternative IL-23 inhibitor. Case Description: This is a case series of 6 patients at a single institution considered inadequate responders to tildrakizumab, which included primary failures, secondary failures, and intermediate responders, who were subsequently switched to another IL-23 inhibitor. Conclusion: All 6 patients who were inadequate responders to tildrakizumab showed significant improvement after switching to another IL-23 inhibitor, with 5/6 reaching IGA 0/1 after 16 weeks of treatment.
