Learning Objectives Describe the etiology and socioeconomic and psychosocial burden of PsA and the importance of early detection and treatment Incorporate classification criteria into assessment of suspected PsA cases Identify PsA-associated comorbidities, such as CVD, obesity, and IBD, as well as their implication on the choice of treatment options

Learning Objectives continued Increase clinician communication to minimize differences in the assessment of PsA-disease severity and to improve understanding of patient satisfaction with current treatment options Apply an integrated approach to therapeutic intervention, incorporating patient-centric evidence and best practice recommendations for each treatment domain of PsA Describe the mechanisms and latest safety and efficacy evidence for approved and emerging biologic and non-biologic DMARDs for the treatment of patients with PsA

Module 1: Prevalence and Burden of Disease; Importance of Early Screening and Classification Criteria In this module, we address the prevalence and psychosocial burden of psoriatic arthritis (PsA), as well as the ongoing clinical challenges of underdiagnosed patients suffering with PsA. We discuss the importance of early detection and will review available screening questionnaires that can help provide an earlier diagnosis.

Prevalence and Psychosocial Burden of PsA Manifestations of arthritis in majority of patients (~85%) may not emerge until several years following evidence of skin disease Peak age of onset between 30 and 55 years More than 30% of psoriasis patients will develop PsA More men present with axial disease and radiographic damage Women exhibit worse functional outcomes compared to men Psychological burden and worse quality of life [than patients with psoriasis alone] Chronic conditions of psoriasis and arthritis “affect both the skin and joints, and can result in both functional and cosmetic concerns.”—Husni, Merola, et al. 2017 Sources: American Academy of Dermatology Work Group, Menter A, Korman NJ, et al.

Disease Burden of PsA Higher risk of developing PsA with presence of scalp psoriasis, nail lesions, inverse/intertriginous disease, extent of psoriasis and specific genetic markers1–3  Most patients (40–60%) suffer progressive, erosive, and potentially deforming joint disease resulting in decreased quality of life, comorbidities, disabilities, and extra-articular manifestations3,4 Economic burden of underdiagnosed and undertreated PsA: ~$35.2 billion annual healthcare burden5 $10,754 per individual (2013 prices) annual indirect costs of work disability6 Sources: Gladman DD.

Challenges with Underdiagnosed PsA MAPP study reports average delay in diagnosis of 5 years1 Diagnosis often missed due to low level of awareness by clinical training with failure to connect skin and joint symptoms, primarily PCPs and dermatologists2 Results in progressive joint damage, deformities, disabilities, and reduced quality of life3,4 Dermatologists play pivotal role in the diagnosis of PsA Skin manifestations typically present before joint signs and symptoms5  Failure to recognize connection between skin and joint symptoms6 Mease et al—41% of PsO patients with PsA were not previously diagnosed7 Even 6-month diagnostic delay of effective treatment results in long-term poor radiographic and functional outcomes, such as bone erosion2,8 Sources: Kavanaugh A, Helliwell P, Ritchlin CT.

Module 2: Comorbidities In this module, we will discuss common comorbidities and risk factors associated with psoriatic arthritis and implications to disease management.

Addressing Co-Morbidities Increased prevalence and incidence of CVD, diabetes, obesity, depression, and anxiety in patients with active PsA Comorbidities 50% of patients with PsA have at least 1 comorbidity Results in decreased quality of life Implications to disease management Review patient satisfaction with current treatment options Source: Husni ME, Merola JF, Davin S.

Comorbidities associated with PsA Patients with PsA have more comorbidities than the general population Greater risk for IBD in patients with psoriasis and PsA Higher risk for cardiovascular disease1, 2 Leading cause of death (20-56%) in patients with PsA1 Identify high-risk CVD patients who may need more aggressive intervention Higher risk for depression (than patients with psoriasis alone) Presence of comorbid depression may affect adherence to treatment Sources: Husni ME, Merola JF, Davin S.

Why Are Comorbidities Important to Recognize? Allows comprehensive evaluation and management of the patient, and manifestations of disease May affect choice of therapeutic agents CAD Risk benefit of anti-osteoblastic activity of NSAIDs need to be balanced by risk of CAD, exacerbation of HTN Goodson et al—Use of NSAIDs associated with reduced CV mortality (Trelle et al—doubling of risk of CVD with NSAIDs in general population) IBD May be exacerbated by NSAIDs (Sandborn WJ et al—not Celecoxib?)

Module 5: Therapeutic Management (Treat to Target) In this module, we review treatment objectives, including treat-to-target strategy and treatment management, which includes continued assessment of musculoskeletal disease, skin disease, and health‐related quality of life. We also share highlights from upcoming 2018 ACR guidelines, and review the latest data from emerging treatments. Coates LC, et al. Arthritis Rheumatol. 2018;70(3):345-355.

DPSA Remission Criteria DAPSA: Disease Activity and Psoriatic Arthritis Score Validated treatment target in daily practice <4 is remission cutoff PASDAS, remission cutoff <1.9

Treatment Objective Treat-to-target strategy to optimize patient care Use quantitative measures (e.g., PASDAS) of disease activity to maximize achieving very low-disease activity or remission An integrated approach to therapeutic intervention Remission The absence of clinical and laboratory evidence of significant inflammation or minimal-disease activity Source: Coates L, Gladman D, Nash P, et al.

Take Aways for PsA Early diagnosis and early, aggressive treatment should aim to halt or minimize joint damage and clearing skin psoriasis Treat key clinical domains (i.e., arthritis, spondylitis, enthesitis, dactylitis, skin, and nail disease) Be aware of comorbidities and their implication to treatment approaches Collaborate with an interdisciplinary approach to screening and managing patients Apply treat-to-target strategies to improve patient outcomes Educate patients on range of available treatments and new options Help patients gain a better understanding of their condition and how to manage it Source: Husni ME, Merola JF, Davin S.
