This is a multi-centre, non-interventional, open-label, prospective observational study that will be conducted across Canada over 52-week duration. Approximately 80 patients who are initiating tildrakizumab as part of their routine care through the ILUMYA SUPPORT® Program and meet the study's eligibility criteria will be enrolled. Specifically, the study will enroll patients with Fitzpatrick scale skin types III and above. The real-world impact, safety and effectiveness of tildrakizumab on patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis (PsO) remain largely undocumented in Canada, despite its approval in 2018. Given Canada's diverse population, this study presents an opportunity to evaluate tildrakizumab's quality of life, safety and effectiveness in specific demographic groups, particularly those patients with Fitzpatrick scale skin type III and above. The findings from this study will help optimize care, address unmet needs, and ensure that treatment outcomes are inclusive and reflective of Canada's diverse population.
