%X Background Janus kinase (JAK)/tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) inhibitors are novel treatments for moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. Objective To perform a network meta-analysis to compare the efficacy and safety of TYK2 inhibitors with other oral drugs in moderate-to-severe psoriasis. Methods Eligible randomised clinical trials (RCTs) were identified from public databases (published before November 2, 2023). Random-effect frequentist network meta-analysis was performed with ranking based on the surface under the cumulative ranking curve (SUCRA) of Physician's Global Assessment of "clear" or "almost clear" (PGA 0/1), 75% reduction from baseline in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI-75). Results Twenty RCTs containing 7,564 patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis were included. Deucravacitinib at all dose levels (except for 3 mg every other day) and tofacitinib (10 mg BID) ranked best in achieving PGA 0/1 and PASI-75 at 12- 16 weeks. Tofacitinib (10 mg BID) was considered the most unsafe. Analysis of Ranking according to efficacy and safety showed deucravacitinib (3 mg QD and 3 mg BID) was the best treatment. Analysis of Ranking according to efficacy and safety showed deucravacitinib (3 mg QD and 3 mg BID) was the best treatment. Limitations Insufficiency of eligible data and no long-term follow-up data. Conclusion Deucravacitinib showed superior efficacy and safety for treating moderate-to-severe psoriasis over other included drugs.
