Popis: The goal of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) therapy is to achieve remission or minimal disease activity (MDA). According to the EULAR guidelines, synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (sDMARDs), methotrexate (MTX) in particular, are first-line therapy for PsA.Objective: to study the rate of MDA achievement after initiation of sDMARD therapy in patients with early- and late-stage PsA and the efficacy of oral and parenteral MTX.Patients and methods. The investigation enrolled 253 patients (93 men and 160 women) diagnosed with PsA who met the appropriate 2006 CASPAR (ClASsification criteria for Psoriatic ARthritis) criteria and were recorded in the All-Russian PsA Registry. The median (Me) age was 47 (Min 20 – Max 82) years. All the patients took sDMARDs: MTX (n=211) that was received orally (as tablets) (n=102) and parenterally (n=109); leflunomide (n=7); sulfasalazine (n=24); apremilast (n=10); and tofacitinib (n=1). According to the disease duration at sDMARD treatment initiation, the patients were divided into two groups. Group 1 included 165 patients with an early PsA duration of less than 2 years and Group 2 consisted of 88 patients with a disease duration of >2 years. The efficiency of oral and parenteral MTX was evaluated in 182 patients (68 men and 114 women). Every 6 months, the patients underwent a standard rheumatology examination that included PsA activity assessment. The efficiency of MTX therapy was evaluated from MDA achievement (5 out of the 7 criteria) in the patients.Results and discussion. After sDMARD prescription, MDA was achieved in 39 (24%) of the 165 patients with early PsA and in 4 (5%) of the 88 long-term patients. The patients who started sDMARD at an early stage of the disease were significantly more likely to achieve MDA than those with late-stage PsA (odds ratio (OR) 6.5; 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.2–18.9). At 11 years after sDMARD therapy initiation, the cumulative MDA achievement rate in the patients with late-stage disease was 5% (p
