PURPOSE: To compare PASI outcomes of approved biologics and apremilast after 1 year of treatment. METHODS: A systematic review identified RCTs and long-term extensions reporting PASI 75, 90, and 100 responses in adults with moderate-to-severe psoriasis. Data for analysis were modeled using a Bayesian multinomial likelihood model with probit link. RESULTS: Twenty-eight studies reporting PASI responses were included in the network meta-analysis. Differences in study design led to a stepwise approach to synthesis, consisting of two analyses. The primary analysis included nine RCTs investigating comparative efficacy at 1 year. Results indicated risankizumab, brodalumab, and guselkumab were the most effective therapies, followed by ixekizumab and secukinumab; all demonstrated superiority to ustekinumab and etanercept. The secondary analysis extended the primary analysis with 19 further studies comparing active interventions to placebo outcomes extrapolated from induction. The interventions generating the highest PASI response were the same as the primary analysis. These therapies were more effective than apremilast, ustekinumab, adalimumab, certolizumab, etanercept, and infliximab. CONCLUSIONS: This NMA demonstrated that evaluated IL-17 and IL-23 inhibitors outperformed other biological therapies after 1 year. Risankizumab had a higher probability of achieving PASI outcomes than all other biologics, except brodalumab and guselkumab, where no significant difference could be concluded.
