Comment on “Real-world efficacy and retention of guselkumab in psoriatic arthritis: a 12-month multicenter study

This Letter to the Editor provides a constructive methodological commentary on the recently published article "Real-world efficacy and retention of guselkumab in psoriatic arthritis." We address issues related to the completers-only analysis, interpretation of axial domain outcomes, and absence of standardized response criteria such as ASAS20/40. Recommendations are proposed to improve the validity and comparability of real-world studies in psoriatic arthritis, with emphasis on axial disease assessment and time-to-event modeling.

Abstract

This Letter to the Editor provides a constructive methodological commentary on the recently published article "Real-world efficacy and retention of guselkumab in psoriatic arthritis." We address issues related to the completers-only analysis, interpretation of axial domain outcomes, and absence of standardized response criteria such as ASAS20/40. Recommendations are proposed to improve the validity and comparability of real-world studies in psoriatic arthritis, with emphasis on axial disease assessment and time-to-event modeling.
