Adults with Pso, PsA, or SpA who initiated a bDMARD (tumor necrosis factor inhibitors [TNFi]; interleukin [IL] inhibitors: IL-12\/23i, IL-23i, IL-17i) between 1 July, 2016, and 31 July, 2023 were eligible for inclusion. The primary outcome was incident MACE, defined as cardiovascular death and\/or hospitalization for acute myocardial infarction or ischemic stroke. Inverse probability-weighted Cox models were used to estimate weighted hazard ratios and their confidence intervals. Models were further adjusted for time-varying concomitant treatments, treatment indication, year of initiation, and prior non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug use. An interaction term between bDMARD exposure and history of cardiovascular disease was included.\n<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n<details>\n<summary>Results<\/summary>\n<p>\nA total of 72,291 patients were included (mean age 46.1 \u00b1 14.2 years, 49.4% female): 10,703 IL-17i (14.8%), 7952 IL-23i (11.0%), 5962 IL-12\/23i (8.2%), and 47,674 TNFi (66.0%). Compared with initiators of other bDMARDs, TNFi initiators were younger and had fewer comorbidities and cardiovascular risk factors at baseline. During follow-up, 438 patients (0.6%) experienced a MACE, including 107 (0.1%) cardiovascular deaths. The median time to event was 13.5 months (interquartile range, 5.1\u201330.4). In crude analyses, initiation of IL-17i, IL-23i, and IL-12\/23i was associated with a higher risk of MACE compared with TNFi drugs. However, among patients without a history of cardiovascular disease, after inverse probability of treatment weighting and adjustment, no significant association was observed (weighted hazard ratio [95% confidence interval]: 0.90 [0.57\u20131.43] for IL-12\/23i, 1.12 [0.66\u20131.88] for IL-23i, and 1.07 [0.74\u20131.55] for IL-17i). Findings held across most sensitivity analyses, except for the short-term analysis restricted to the first 6 months after treatment initiation, in which a trend toward a higher MACE risk with IL-17i was observed. A trend toward a higher MACE risk with IL-17i was also observed among men, patients aged \u2265 50 years, and those with a history of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug use. However, the number of events was low, and the results did not reach statistical significance.\n<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n<details>\n<summary>Conclusions<\/summary>\n<p>\nNo significant increase in MACE risk was observed with IL-12\/23i, IL-23i, or IL-17i compared with tumor necrosis factor inhibitors. However, the study lacked sufficient power to draw definitive conclusions regarding a possible increased risk associated with IL-17i in patients with a high baseline cardiovascular risk profile, or the potentiation of this risk by non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug use.\n<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n<div class=\"epilogy-authors\">\n<div class=\"epilogy-authors-title\">Author from the Epilogy team<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"epilogy-authors-grid\">\n<div>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/epilogy.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/laietitia-penso-min.png\" alt=\"Laetitia Penso\">\n<span>Laetitia Penso<\/span>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"epilogy-highlight\">\n<h3>Risk of Major Cardiovascular Events in Patients with Psoriasis, Psoriatic Arthritis, and\/or Other Forms of Spondyloarthritis: A Cohort of 72,291 Biologic New Users<\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin:0;\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/s40259-026-00815-8\" target=\"_blank\">\nhttps:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/s40259-026-00815-8\n<\/a>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9907e4c e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"9907e4c\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3f3ec8c elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"3f3ec8c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<script>\ndocument.querySelectorAll('.epilogy-accordion details').forEach((detail) => {\n  detail.addEventListener('toggle', function() {\n    if (this.open) {\n      document.querySelectorAll('.epilogy-accordion details').forEach((other) => {\n        if (other !== this) {\n          other.removeAttribute('open');\n        }\n      });\n    }\n  });\n});\n<\/script>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Background The impact of biologic therapies (biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs [bDMARD]) used in psoriasis (Pso), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), and other forms of spondyloarthritis (SpA) on the risk of major cardiovascular events (MACE) remains controversial.
