Our results suggest that obesity and hypertriglyceridemia still existed in patients despite the improved disease activity after secukinumab treatment. Higher baseline hs-CRP level and PASI-90 non-response were predictors for elevated triglyceride levels after treatment. Therefore, patient education, regular screening of the lipid profile, and weight control are recommended during the treatment of secukinumab.
