Abstract
Ixekizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody that specifically inhibits IL-17A. It has been approved for the treatment of adult and pediatric psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis and axial spondyloarthropathies by the US FDA and the EMA. Phase III trials, post hoc analyses and real-life data have reported its efficacy, effectiveness and safety. This review summarizes the latest evidence on the clinical efficacy, pharmacology and safety profile of ixekizumab for the treatment of moderate-to-severe psoriasis. A literature search was performed for articles published through December 2022. Ixekizumab is one of the most efficacious biologics for psoriasis, with a rapid onset of response, favorable long-term outcomes and an adequate safety profile.
