VIDEO: Risankizumab ‘easy drug to discuss’ with psoriasis patients

Fact checked byKristen Dowd

In this Healio exclusive video, Raj Chovatiya, MD, PhD, discussed research into the interleukin-23 inhibitor risankizumab from the Maui Derm 2024 meeting.

Chovatiya, assistant professor of dermatology at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, discussed long-term studies into the use of risankizumab (Skyrizi, AbbVie) to treat palmoplantar psoriasis, as well as a long-term safety analysis.

“That safety looks very, very encouraging and makes it a really easy drug to discuss with our patients,” Chovatiya said.
