Gold et al. showed that icotrokinra showed superior clinical response rates versus PBO and deucravacitinib in Phase 3 moderate-to-severe plaque PsO trials. Authors evaluated the efficacy and safety of icotrokinra, a targeted oral peptide that selectively binds the IL-23 receptor, compared with both PBO and deucravacitinib in adults with moderate-to-severe plaque PsO.

Guselkumab demonstrated superiority to adalimumab and placebo in treating PsO in this Phase 3 study. Improvements in IGA and PASI scores were observed as early as Week 16 and were maintained up to Week 48. Incidence of adverse events was similar across both treatment groups.

Patients treated with guselkumab showed an improved and sustained clinical response compared to both adalimumab and placebo, without compromising safety profile. The Phase 3 VOYAGE 2 trial by Reich et al focused on treatment interruption and withdrawal, as well as treatment switching from adalimumab to guselkumab.
