The treatment landscape for psoriasis (PsO) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is evolving, yet many novel approaches have limitations. Several Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKis) have indications for only one of the two conditions; others carry black box warnings from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of which patients remain wary. Biologics are a safe and efficacious treatment option despite diversity in mechanisms of action (MOAs), though only some have indications for both PsO and PsA. Biosimilars present another approved option for PsO/PsA treatment, yet clinicians lack understanding of their role and development. PsA prevention in patients with PsO is another area of consideration for clinicians, particularly for nurse practitioners (NPs) and physician associates (PAs) involved in treatment decision-making. Clinicians collaborating with a multidisciplinary care team require dedicated education on all applicable treatment options to provide the best possible standard of care for patients with PsO and/or PsA. In the third activity of this CME Outfitters BriefCase series, expert faculty utilize case-based learning to instruct learners on incorporating efficacy and safety data for biologics indicated for PsO and PsA in patients as part of treatment decision-making.
