Purpose of Review: Psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis belong to a family of rheumatological diseases that lead to painful joint inflammation that impacts on patient function and quality of life. Recent studies have shown that the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-17 is involved in the inflammatory joint changes in spondyloarthritides. We will review the pathophysiology of IL-17 and review the biological therapies targeting IL-17. Recent Findings: IL-17 is produced and released from T cells and is dependent on multiple upstream cytokines, which include IL-23. There are six members of the IL-17 family that are secreted from multiple populations of T cells. The initial biologic medications have been developed against IL-17A, which is the best-studied member of this family. These medications appear to be effective in controlling joint inflammation, improving patient quality of life, and are generally well tolerated. More recently, medications have been developed that target both IL-17A and IL-17F. In addition, brodalumab, an antibody targeting the IL-17 receptor, has had a resurgence after initial concerns for an increased risk of suicide. Summary: IL-17 is an inflammatory cytokine that is critical in the pathobiology of axial spondyloarthritides. Recent biological therapies targeting IL-17A are effective and well tolerated in patients with axial spondyloarthritis. Specific targeting of the Il-17A/F heterodimer is also effective and provides another viable option in the clinician’s armamentarium.
