Summary

This study looked at 192 adults with newly diagnosed moderate to severe psoriatic arthritis to see if starting stronger treatment early works better than the usual step-up approach. Participants were split into three groups: standard care, early combination drugs, or early biologic therapy. The goal was to measure how well each approach controlled disease activity over time.
