Psoriasis treatments may impact bone health, new study finds

NCT ID NCT07140666

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This completed study looked at 100 adults with moderate-to-severe psoriasis to see how two common biologic drugs, Secukinumab and Adalimumab, affect bone density. Researchers measured bone mineral density in the spine and hip over time. The goal was to understand if these treatments help or harm bone health, since psoriasis itself may raise the risk of osteoporosis.
