Research Review on Psoriasis [May]
A couple of papers in this research review on psoriasis highlight the increased risk of malignancy associated with the condition. The findings illustrate an increased risk of melanoma and haematological cancers in patients with psoriasis compared with the general population. Notably, this risk is not increased by systemic or biologic psoriasis therapies.
Featured in this issue:
- Safety data differ between RA and psoriasis
- Psoriasis marked by premature mortality
- Brodalumab in generalised pustular psoriasis + psoriatic erythroderma
- Increase skin cancer surveillance in biologics users?
- Psoriasis linked to melanoma and haematological cancers
- Guselkumab vs adalimumab in moderate-to-severe psoriasis
- Ixekizumab maintenance shows acceptable safety in psoriasis
- Few IBD cases with ixekizumab
- Calcipotriol/betamethasone dipropionate gel: maintenance regimens compared
- Apremilast improves PROs in moderate-to-severe psoriasis
