Biologics for pityriasis rubra pilaris treatment: a review of the literature

Pityriasis rubra pilaris (PRP) is a rare inflammatory papulosquamous skin disease, often refractory to conventional therapies. The off-label use of biologics, such as anti-TNF, -IL-12/IL-23, -IL-17 agents, has been proven successful, in the last two decades, in PRP treatment.Our aim was to analyse the literature for the use of biologics in PRP treatment. We conducted a review by "Pubmed" and "clinicaltrial.gov" searches. 68 articles met our selection criteria and were herein discussed. Out of 86 PRP patients, the vast majority of which treated with anti-TNF, -IL-12/IL-23, and -IL-17 biologics, either alone or in combination therapy, a marked-to-complete response (50-78%), a partial response (11-25%) or no/poor response (11-25%) was observed.
