Protocol summary
Study aim
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of tofacitinib versus adalimumab in treating nail, joint, and skin involvement in psoriatic arthritis patients.

Patients are randomly assigned to receive tofacitinib (5 mg tablets, every two weeks) or adalimumab (40 mg injections, every two weeks) for 12 weeks. Clinical assessments are performed at weeks 0, 8, and 12 using the NAPSI and Lesion Quadrant indices. Blinding is not implemented.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria: Diagnosis of psoriatic arthritis per CASPAR criteria confirmed by a rheumatologist and a dermatologist; nail involvement; prior use of disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs).
Exclusion Criteria: History of hypersensitivity to study drugs; severe infections or concurrent malignancies; pregnancy or breastfeeding; other rheumatologic diseases; fungal or infectious nail diseases; history of deep vein thrombosis (DVT); cardiovascular diseases; smoking.
