Switching biologics in the treatment of psoriatic arthritis

Switching bDMARD therapies is a recommended strategy for patients who experience treatment failure. Many factors must be considered for determining which agent to switch to including PsA disease characteristics, comorbidities, cardiometabolic risk factors, treatment history, and patient preference. Switching between TNFis can be effective for many patients, but bDMARDs with different mechanisms of action may be superior alternatives.
