Janssen’s Tremfya Approved for Active Psoriatic Arthritis

July 15, 2020

The FDA has approved Janssen’s Tremfya (guselkumab) for treatment of adults with active psoriatic arthritis.

The approval was based on the results of two phase 3 clinical trials, in which a significant percentage of patients treated with Tremfaya experienced improvement compared to those given a placebo.

Tremfya is the first treatment to selectively inhibit interleukin (IL)-23, which is involved in inflammatory and immune responses associated with active psoriatic arthritis.
