IXORA-S 1 Ixekizumab provides superior efficacy compared to u stekinumab over 52-weeks of 1 treatment : results from IXORA-S , a phase 3 study 2

78 Background: Biologics targeting interleukin (IL)-17A allow for rapid clearance of psoriatic 79 plaques, with a clinically favorable safety profile. 80 Objectives: To compare the safety and efficacy of ixekizumab, an IL-17A antagonist, versus 81 the IL-12/23 inhibitor, ustekinumab, through 52 weeks of treatment in the head-to-head trial, 82
