NCT02028169 Key Points • Psoriatic arthritis (PsA), with debilitating effects on quality of life, occurs mostly in young adults and has negative impacts on employment status and work productivity. • Early PsA diagnosis and treat-to-target treatment strategies aim to reduce pain and joint damage, as well as improve work productivity. • Real-world data on the impact of treatment with anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) agents on work productivity in PsA in the literature is scarce. • Our study of real-world data in patients with PsA receiving anti-TNF treatment showed improvement in work productivity, as well as in clinical and patient-reported outcomes.
