Evolution of Treatment Strategies for Inflammatory Joint Diseases

Inflammatory joint diseases, such as psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), are associated with severe disability and increased mortality. Over the last several years, new immunotherapeutic targets have been recognized. Progress in treatment using biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) targeting interleukin (IL)-17 and, most recently, JAK inhibitors has improved the management of these diseases and made clinical remission a realistic target. This curriculum aims to educate clinicians about the latest clinical evidence and best practices regarding the treatment of patients with inflammatory joint diseases.
