It provides an alternative option for patients who have had an inadequate response and tolerance to other disease modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs). It has demonstrated comparable efficacy to biologics, is effective in the management of treatment resistant disease, and is reported to improve enthesitis, dactylitis, and radiographic progression. Tofacitinib is also associated with an increased risk of serious infections, malignancy, and laboratory abnormalities. There is currently a large armamentarium of therapies for psoriatic arthritis, and choosing among treatments can be challenging. Due to this wide selection, a thorough assessment of psoriatic disease phenotype, patient preference, disease presentation, and comorbidities is critical. This review addresses key considerations in patient selection for the treatment of PsA with tofacitinib.Keywords: tofacitinib, psoriatic arthritis, janus kinase, kinase inhibitorsLy KBeck KMSmith MPOrbai AMLiao WDove Medical PressarticleTofacitinibpsoriatic arthritisjanus kinasekinase inhibitorsDermatologyRL1-803ENPsoriasis: Targets and Therapy, Vol Volume 9, Pp 97-107 (2019)
