Long-term Drug Survival of Risankizumab in Psoriasis: Insights from a Real-Life Multicenter Study on Hard-to-treat Areas

Psoriasis, a chronic inflammatory condition, often presents challenges in treatment, particularly in areas such as nails, palms/soles, scalp/face, and genitalia. Monoclonal antibodies (mAb) like risankizumab targeting interleukin-23 (IL-23) have emerged as promising treatments, yet data on long-term efficacy remain limited. This multicenter retrospective study aimed to evaluate the drug survival at 12 and 36 months of 191 psoriasis patients treated with risankizumab, focusing on critical areas. Patients, previously unresponsive to first-line therapies, were treated according to Italian Guidelines. Survival analysis revealed a 97.6
