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.
