Objectives

Understand how new biologic therapies will dramatically change dermatology.

Understand how the MOA of the biologic determines which Derm diseases will be successfully treated

ARS: Which Disease has the Highest Need for a Biologic?1. Severe Atopic Dermatitis2. Hidradenitis Suppurativa3. Plaque Psoriasis4. Pemphigus Vulgaris5. Pyoderma Gangrenosa6. Chronic Urticaria

Our Current Biologics Anti-TNF

Receptor: Etanercept Antibody: Adalimumab, Infliximab, Certolizumab

Anti-IL-12/23: Ustekinumab Anti-IL-17: Secukinumab, Ixekizumab Anti-IL-17RA: Brodalumab Anti-IL-23: Guselkumab, Tildrakizumab IL-1 RA: Anakinra Anti-IL-1B: Canakinumab Anti-IgE: Omalizumab Anti-CD20: Rituximab Anti-IL-4/13: Dupilumab

Tumor Necrosis Factor(TNF)

TNF has myriad upstream and effector roles in TH1 inflammation

Receptor binds free TNF Antibodies bind free and bound TNF Both approved for PSO, PSA, RA, AS Antibodies approved for Crohns, UC and

Adalimumab is approved for HS

Key Takeaways

We have several Biologic Medications that target specific parts of the immune system

In addition to the FDA approved indications (Psoriasis and HS), the anti-TNF antibodies (Adalimumab and Infliximab) work well for Pyoderma Gangrenosa, PRP, Granuloma Annulare and Cutaneous Sarcoid

Rituximab targets B cells and is the first line agent for pemphigus vulgaris and other AIBD’s
