A new target for treatment in AxSpA is the dual inhibition of IL17A and IL17F (IL17A/F). IL17A is a key driver of the inflammation in the AxSpA and Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA). IL17A and its structurally related IL17F share biologic functional properties. Inhibition of both cytokines (IL17A/F) should result in a greater clinical benefit in AxSpA and PsA than IL17A inhibition alone.

Systemic Inflammation Index (neutrophils*platelet count/lymphocyte count)
predicts survival in RA in 1000+ pts
All cause mortality OR 2.64
CV-mortality OR 3.03
Another proof (if needed) of asso inflammation & mortality in RA
