The present invention relates to a method predictive of response to treatment with ustekinumab in a patient affected from psoriasis comprising detecting in the genome of the subject the association of the HLA-Cw* 0602 allele and a single nucleotide polymorphism predictive of response to said biological drug. The method according to the invention is indicative of greater likelihood of clinical response to treatment, speed of clinical response to treatment and better maintenance to the therapeutic effects dell'ustekinumab and/or drugs blocking the IL12/23-IL17 axis.

Abstract
The present invention relates to a method predictive of response to treatment with ustekinumab in a patient affected from psoriasis comprising detecting in the genome of the subject the association of the HLA-Cw* 0602 allele and a single nucleotide polymorphism predictive of response to said biological drug. The method according to the invention is indicative of greater likelihood of clinical response to treatment, speed of clinical response to treatment and better maintenance to the therapeutic effects dell'ustekinumab and/or drugs blocking the IL12/23-IL17 axis.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
