No clear winner here. The majority would use #IL23 inhibitors as either 2nd or 3rd line bDMARDs and for #psoriaticarthritis with severe #psoriasis. Thank you for participating in the polls #EULAR2021 @RheumNow https://t.co/b8wzaRVTqw

HUR-BIO real life data, PsA pts started bDMARDs w/in 18 mo of dx vs almost 3x later in RA pts (tended to remain on csDMARDs.) This distinction may be explained by synthetic DMARDs on activity differences between the RA & PsA. Abstract #POS0633 #EULAR2021 https://t.co/VkkF28jm2f https://t.co/IkfGdZYNY3
