Introduction: Too many patients with moderate to severe psoriasis do not receive adequate treatment. This means a vast undersupply in the treatment of patients with psoriasis. Only biologics fulfill the whole range of the treatment of psoriasis – psoriasis does not affect only skin but the whole organism: It is a systemic disease! Between the biologics are evident differences concerning the effect. Discussion: Based on broad personal experience in the management of patients with moderate to severe psoriasis new data from clinical studies with ixekizumab are examined. This contains new data on long-term-efficacy of ixekizumab, effectiveness in special localizations (scalp psoriasis, nail psoriasis, palmoplantar psoriasis, genital psoriasis) as well as safely data and experience on patients switched to ixekizumab from other biologics. Personal clinical experience is based on >300 non-selected outpatients with moderate to severe psoriasis, >250 patients on biological therapies, > 50 patients with ixekizumab. Conclusions: Focusing on a relevant number of patients switched from secukinumab to ixekizumab due to first or secondary loss of efficacy significant differences between both IL-17A-inhibitors mainly in terms of efficacy and speed of therapeutic response are shown. Finally the correlation between PASI-90-/PASI-100 response and significant changes in DLQI are highlighted.

Research conducted to develop drama text teaching materials based on the experience of the author of the drama script aims to make it easier for students to understand drama text material. In addition, based on the author's experience students are expected to emulate the author's creative process in writing a paper. The research method used in this research is the research and development method. Based on the results of the interview it can be concluded that the ability to write drama is determined based on mastery of the elements of drama and the ability to develop stories based on the author's experience. The process of writing drama is done in several steps: (1) searching for ideas based on personal experience, other people, or the surrounding environment; (2) processing ideas to find plots (characters), characters or characters that vary with their inner conflicts, settings and dialogues, interesting conflicts, and messages to be conveyed; (3) starts the process of writing drama with stages and elements of drama; (4) revision of drama products. Teaching material developed is presented from basic competencies of knowledge and basic competencies of learning skills. Based on experiments on developed teaching materials it is known that the average value of the ability to write plays gets a score exceeding the minimum criteria, so that the teaching materials used are effective. Based on observations it is known that teaching materials can help students in learning and student activities become more independent, and active.
