OBJECTIVE: We aimed to investigate the effect of targeted therapies on cardiovascular risk in psoriasis (PsO) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) via a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs).

METHODS: Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Scopus were searched for RCTs reporting targeted therapies in patients with PsO/PsA published until 28 October 2021. The primary and secondary outcomes included the relationship between targeted therapies and all cardiovascular events (CVEs), major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), myocardial infarction (MI), heart failure, and stroke in PsO/PsA. The outcome risk ratios (RRs) were calculated using the Mantel-Haenszel fixed-effect method.

RESULTS: A total of 81 articles involving 88 RCTs were included. There was no statistically significant difference regarding the occurrence of all CVEs for all targeted therapies (RR = 1.03, 95% CI 0.74-1.43, P = .85) compared to placebo in PsO/PsA. No statistically significant difference existed between drugs and placebo in patients with PsA on all CVEs (RR = 0.81, 95% CI 0.48-1.36, P = .43). Surprisingly, the incidence of all CVEs was higher in the low dosage group compared to the high dosage group of all targeted therapies (RR = 1.97, 95% CI 1.19-3.27, P = .008) and prominently anti-interleukin-17 agent (RR = 2.20, 95% CI 1.05-4.58, P = .04).

CONCLUSION: Current targeted therapies are not associated with the risk of CVEs. Based on the existing evidence, we reported here that a dosage reduction of targeted therapies was not recommended.
