Summary
In the TOGETHER-PsA trial (n=271), combining tirzepatide with ixekizumab achieved ACR50 + ≥10% weight loss in 31.7% of patients versus 0.8% with ixekizumab alone (p<0.001) at 36 weeks. The combination also significantly improved ACR50 (33.5% vs 20.4%), minimal disease activity, and patient-reported outcomes including disability and fatigue.
Clinical Significance
This trial provides the first evidence that adding tirzepatide to biologic therapy in psoriatic arthritis patients with obesity delivers dual metabolic and rheumatologic benefits. It supports a paradigm shift toward integrated inflammatory-metabolic treatment approaches, as 72-82% of PsA patients have overweight/obesity.
