This study by Lee et al. is the first to evaluate the association between adalimumab dosing intervals and uveitis recurrence in patients with AS. Authors investigated whether extending the dosing interval of adalimumab influences the recurrence of uveitis in AS patients with a history of AU who are on adalimumab therapy.

This study by Olivares-Guerrero et al. provides comparative safety data from a clinical practice point of view, potentially contributing to facilitate the drug selection process for clinicians. New biologic treatments have a superior safety profile in real-world practice compared to adalimumab and its biosimilars. Olivares-Guerrero et al. used data from the BIOBADADERM registry of AEs to analyse the long-term safety profile of systemic treatments, including biological agents as well as new small oral molecules approved for the treatment of moderate-to-severe PsO, using adalimumab and its biosimilars as comparators.

This study by Lluch-Galcerá et al. provides valuable RWE to inform personalized clinical decision-making in the treatment of PsO. Authors evaluated the incidence of MACE associated with each systemic treatment used for patients with PsO and compared these rates to those observed with MTX.
Alimentary Pharmacology & Therapeutics 2025;62:483–492 Doi: 10.1111/apt.70264
Danese et al. showed that patients who achieved disease clearance 8 weeks after ustekinumab induction were more likely to be in long-term clinical, symptomatic and quality of life remission with ustekinumab maintenance treatment than patients who did not. Authors evaluated disease clearance in the Phase 3 UNIFI program and its association with long-term outcomes.

In patients with UC and refractory spondyloarthritis (SpA)—many of whom had previously failed multiple biologic therapies—TOF demonstrated effectiveness, particularly in those with peripheral SpA. Macaluso et al. assessed the effectiveness of TOF in UC-associated SpA. Articular responses were evaluated using rheumatologic scores.

Results from the Phase 3 GRAVTI study by Hart et al. showed that SC induction followed by SC maintenance treatment with guselkumab resulted in superior clinical and endoscopic improvements in participants with moderately to severely active CD through 48 weeks compared with placebo. Hart et al. evaluated efficacy and safety of guselkumab SC induction followed by SC maintenance in participants with moderately to severely active CD in a treat-through design.

This study by Sobotkova et al. confirmed the similar efficacy and overall safety of biological treatment for psoriasis in older and younger adult patients. Authors compared a large cohort of older adults during the first year of biological treatment for psoriasis to younger adult patients with similar characteristics to advance knowledge about the biologic treatment of psoriasis in older patients.
Clin Exp Dermatol 2025;50:1786–1794 Doi: 10.1093/ced/llaf172
This study by Mortato et al. enhanced the limited safety data on guselkumab in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis who have clinically relevant infectious and oncological comorbidities as well as concomitant heart disease. Authors assessed clinical outcomes and safety of guselkumab in a large cohort of patients with concomitant chronic infection, cancer or heart disease over a long follow-up period, addressing critical gaps in clinical evidence.

In this nationwide observational study, ixekuzumab was mainly used in patients with axSpA and PsA who had previously failed multiple b/tsDMARDs, including other IL-17 inhibitors. Although prior IL-17 treatment was associated with increased risk of withdrawal in both groups, the relatively high retention rates and improvements in all disease outcomes suggest ixekizumab as a viable option for challenging patients with multiple b/tsDMARD failures.

UPA has shown effectiveness in treating IMIDs like RA, axSpA, PsA, CD, and UC. Chai et al. evaluated evidence from a synthesis of RCTs and provided insights that may guide clinical decision-making and improve treatment outcomes for IMIDs. UPA effectively alleviated symptoms, reduced disease activity, and showed notable benefits in improving quality of life.
