TARGET AUDIENCE

The educational design of this activity addresses the needs of dermatologists, clinical immunologists, and other clinicians involved in the treatment and management of patients with pustular psoriasis.

EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES PREAMBLE

After completing this activity, the participant should be better able to: • Describe the genetic and pathophysiologic mechanisms that contribute to the development of pustular psoriasis, including factors that have informed the development of new therapies • Comprehensively assess patients with suspected pustular psoriasis based on clinical manifestations, diagnostic criteria, and disease severity • Describe the mechanistic rationales and clinical evidence for current and emerging biologic therapies for the treatment of generalized pustular psoriasis and palmoplantar pustulosis • Individualize therapeutic regimens for pustular psoriasis, with a focus on generalized disease subtypes and palmoplantar pustulosis

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Pustular psoriasis is a relatively rare form of psoriasis and has historically been classified into generalized and localized forms of the disease.1 Generalized pustular psoriasis is characterized by widespread sterile pustules on erythematous skin, recurrent fever, and systemic flushing and malaise.1,2 Palmoplantar pustulosis, a localized form, is characterized by erythema, pruritis, burning, and pain on the palms of the hands and soles of the feet. Recent evidence suggests that IL36RN mutations are the most common genetic aberration linked to pustular psoriasis, with the allelic frequency distinguishing generalized pustular psoriasis and palmoplantar pustulosis; the former shows a 4 to 1 increase versus the latter.3 Whether pustular psoriasis presents as localized or generalized, patients are subject to significant health risks and poor quality of life outcomes due to both skin and systemic manifestations. Patients may be subject to delays in diagnosis, in part because the disease states are relatively rare and there 6

are little solid epidemiologic data.4 Dermatologists are faced with limited guidance on selecting therapies for patients with any of the pustular psoriasis subtypes.1 Biologic agents for pustular psoriasis and palmoplantar pustulosis are being examined in clinical trials. These include some biologics approved for psoriasis as well as agents with novel therapeutic targets, such as an anti-interleukin (IL)-36 receptor antibody.5 This Clinical Issues symposium will use both lecture and faculty discussion among leading dermatology experts to explore many of these issues, with an emphasis on evolving diagnostic and management strategies for generalized pustular psoriasis and palmoplantar pustulosis.
