GRAPPA Treatment Recommendations: 2021 Update (3rd edition) - now publishedIntroduction to the GRAPPA treatment recommendations

GRAPPA; the Group for Research and Assessment of Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis and is a global association of more than 500 rheumatologists, dermatologists, and patient research partners.

The GRAPPA treatment recommendations are developed to assist clinicians in managing patients with PsA. To remain clinically relevant, these recommendations must be dynamic, and so require regular updates to include new evidence. An update of the GRAPPA recommendations for PsA, last completed in 2015, was required to include novel therapeutic approaches in the field. Updates are developed by utilising the most current approaches to guideline formation and ethical standards, analysing the best available evidence, and involving diverse stakeholders in the process. The result is relevant, patient centric treatment recommendations. The goal of this update was the same as in 2009: to develop treatment recommendations based on the best available evidence for the management of patients with PsA. See a short summary video outlining the updates immediately below or watch the full interactive version later on this page.
