Xu et al. showed that elevated BMI, BSA, body weight, and basal metabolic rate are associated with more severe PsO and diminished treatment efficacy, especially for those treated with biologics. Authors investigated the associations of BMI, basal metabolic rate, BSA, and body weight with baseline PsO severity and therapeutic response across different treatment modalities.

Cai et al. demonstrated that xeligekimab significantly improved the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) scores in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis, with 90.7% achieving PASI 75 at week 12. Xeligekimab was well-tolerated with no unexpected safety concerns.

Shu, et al. identified 37 preferred terms as unexpected AEs following risankizumab treatment, and found 48 AEs with an increased risk of risankizumab-induced AE severity. They also identified that risankizumab signal strengths were significantly higher in eight system organ classes.
