Psoriasis Market Outlook: Targeted Innovation Amidst Growing Competitive Pressure

The psoriasis treatment landscape is evolving rapidly, with interleukin inhibitors—particularly IL-17 and IL-23 agents—driving market growth. Despite biosimilar erosion of legacy anti-TNF therapies like Humira and Stelara, the market is forecast to grow to $18.8bn by 2031 across the US, EU5, and Japan, fueled by rising prevalence, new oral therapies, and pipeline innovation.

Skyrizi has emerged as a market leader, with blockbuster sales expected to exceed $7bn annually by the end of the forecast period. Meanwhile, Sotyktu, a novel oral TYK2 inhibitor, is poised to challenge Otezla and expand the market by offering a more efficacious oral option.

In this report we cover: 

  • Key growth drivers: Uptake of IL-17 and IL-23 inhibitors, biosimilar launches, and increasing prevalence across major markets.
  • Promising therapies: Skyrizi, Tremfya, Bimzelx, Sotyktu, and biosimilars to Humira and Stelara.
  • Novel modalities: TYK2 inhibitors, IL-36 receptor blockers for GPP, and next-gen topicals like Zoryve and Vtama.

Frequently Asked Questions

The market is driven by the rapid uptake of IL-17 and IL-23 inhibitors, the launch of efficacious oral therapies like Sotyktu, and increasing disease prevalence. Biosimilar competition is reshaping the pricing and access landscape.

Skyrizi is expected to become the top-selling psoriasis drug, with strong competition from Tremfya, Bimzelx, and Sotyktu. Biosimilars to Humira and Stelara are also gaining traction.

New classes such as TYK2 inhibitors and IL-36 receptor blockers are expanding treatment options, particularly for underserved subtypes like generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP). Topical innovation is also revitalizing the mild-to-moderate segment.

Biosimilar erosion, payer-driven access restrictions, and competition among highly efficacious biologics are key challenges. Safety concerns and differentiation among IL-17 and IL-23 inhibitors also influence prescribing behavior. 

Sotyktu is expected to outperform Otezla due to superior efficacy, offering a compelling option for patients averse to injectables and expanding the addressable market.
