Abstract

Interleukin (IL)-23 inhibitors, guselkumab, risankizumab, and tildrakizumab, represent the latest class of biologics approved for the treatment of moderate-to-severe psoriasis. Since their approval numerous real-life studies were published on anti-IL-23 use in routine clinical practice. Indeed, real-life data are important to improve the dermatological decision-making process, including patients who are typically excluded from clinical trials, such as subjects suffering from several comorbidities, subjects on polypharmacy, as well as multifailure patients. Herein, we performed a comprehensive literature review about real-life data available on guselkumab, risankizumab, and tildrakizumab. Real-life data of anti-IL-23 seem to confirm the promising results of IL-23 shown by clinical trials, highlighting the efficacy and safety profiles of this new class of biologics also in clinical practice.
