Management of Concomitant Inflammatory Bowel Disease or Uveitis in Patients With Psoriatic Arthritis: An Updated Review Informing the 2021 GRAPPA Treatment Recommendations

J RheumatolPublished Systematic review of randomised controlled trials

Authors' conclusion

Advanced therapies are not equally efficacious across these related conditions, with dosing regimens and safety varying.

Study context

Population
Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of advanced therapies in Crohn disease (CD), ulcerative colitis (UC) and noninfectious uveitis, related conditions in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA); MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Library, February 2013 to August 202032 RCTs
Comparison
Advanced therapies (tumor necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi), IL-12/23i, Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi), IL-23i, IL-17i) for concomitant CD, UC or noninfectious uveitis in PsA
Outcome
Efficacy and safety of advanced therapies for CD, UC and noninfectious uveitis
Methodological detailsupdated systematic literature review, Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) quality assessment
  • Updated systematic literature review
  • GRADE quality assessment

Pooled result

As reported in the abstract

Efficacy and safety of advanced therapies in CD, UC and uveitis
  • Eligible RCTs: 12 for CD, 15 for UC, 5 for uveitis
  • TNFi class appears efficacious and safe across CD, UC and uveitis, with the exception of etanercept
  • IL-12/23i efficacious for CD and UC
  • Phase II and III RCTs of JAKi and IL-23i in CD and UC promising in efficacy and safety
  • IL-17i must be used with great caution in PsA at high risk of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)
  • RCTs in uveitis mainly studied adalimumab
