Target Audience
This initiative has been designed to address the educational needs of dermatology clinicians. It may also be of benefit to rheumatology and primary care clinicians, as well as other healthcare providers (HCPs) involved with or interested in the management of patients with psoriasis.
Statement of Need
Psoriasis is a common autoimmune disorder with associated comorbidities that are more than skin deep. Patients with psoriasis are at increased risk for cardiovascular and metabolic disease, malignancies, and anxiety/depression. This activity will provide clinicians with a solid foundation for understanding the pathophysiology of psoriasis along with other autoimmune diseases, how this pathophysiology informs treatment options, and the most recent clinical trial data for current and emerging agents and management recommendations available to guide therapy selection.
Learning Objectives
Upon proper completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:
- Identify the JAK/TYK2-STAT–mediated pathways involved in the pathophysiology of psoriasis
- Summarize evidence for the efficacy, safety, and mechanisms of action for new and emerging agents in psoriasis, and the implications for treatment
- Apply current research findings and recommendations to the treatment of psoriasis and comorbidities
Agenda
- Pathophysiology of Psoriasis
- JAK/TYK2 Inhibitors in Psoriasis Data
- Psoriasis Treatment Guidelines
- New Directions in Psoriasis Therapy: The Role of Emerging JAK/TYK2 Inhibitors in Psoriasis
