- The review published in JAMA Dermatology analyzed GLP-1 data from people with psoriasis and found the greatest improvements among those with obesity or type 2 diabetes.
- Most included studies were small, short-term, and lacked control groups, making larger clinical trials necessary.
- Experts cite reduced inflammation and IL-17, along with effects on metabolic conditions and body weight linked to psoriasis, as possible explanations.
- The findings do not yet support recommending these drugs for psoriasis treatment, but study author Samip Sheth said they could eventually serve as an adjunctive option, particularly for patients with obesity or type 2 diabetes.
GLP-1 medications may have a role beyond their approved uses and could become an important adjunctive option for psoriasis, especially in patients with obesity or type 2 diabetes,— Dr. Samip Sheth, lead study author in the Departments of Dermatology and Internal Medicine at the University of Minnesota
