Integrated Safety Analysis on Skin Cancers among Patients with Psoriasis Receiving Ixekizumab in Clinical Trials.

Incidence of skin neoplasms in patients with psoriasis treated with ixekizumab for ≤ 5 years was low, and among those events, NMSC was most common. Limitations included that longer exposure may be required to confirm risk of skin cancer and that the study exclusion criteria of several studies, which excluded patients with skin cancer events within 5 years prior to baseline, might limit interpretation of skin cancer risk in this cohort. These findings support the safety profile of ixekizumab for patients requiring long-term psoriasis control.
