Ramiro et al. show that bimekizumab (BKZ) reduces enthesitis and peripheral arthritis in patients with nr-axSpA and r-axSpA up to 2 years. Authors assessed the effect of BKZ treatment on the main peripheral manifestations of axSpA, including enthesitis and peripheral arthritis, using a range of measures including DAPSA, to Week 104 in the BE MOBILE 1 and 2 studies.

Marzo-Ortega et al. report that dactylitis and enthesitis are associated with a greater disease burden and worse prognosis, highlighting the importance for physicians to identify these conditions and provide adequate treatment. Authors evaluated guselkumab’s efficacy on dactylitis resolution (DR) and enthesitis resolution (ER), and their impact on subsequent disease control, in patients with active PsA and prior inadequate response to tumour necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi-IR).

In this first global clinical study of a nanobody in inflammatory arthritis, sonelokimab, an
IL-17A- and IL-17F-inhibiting nanobody demonstrated strong efficacy across multiple domains including high-hurdle composite joint and skin responses. McInnes et al. reported on the Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, PBO-controlled ARGO trial which evaluated the efficacy and safety of sonelokimab in patients with active PsA.
