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.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |

| Evaluate the impact of tildrakizumab on the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI and DLQI-R) in patients of Fitzpatrick skin type III and above to 16 weeks | DLQI consists of 10 items designed to assess multiple domains, including symptoms and feelings, daily activities, leisure, work and school, personal relationships, and treatment. Patients respond to each item based on their experiences over the past week, using a four-point scale that ranges from: 0 (not at all or not relevant), 1 (a little), 2 (a lot), 3 (very much). Total DLQI score is calculated by summing the scores for all 10 items, resulting in a possible range from 0 to 30, where higher scores indicate greater impairment in QoL due to the skin condition. DLQI-Relevant adjusted for non-relevant answers | 16 weeks |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |

| Evaluate the impact of tildrakizumab on DLQI and DLQI-R in patients of Fitzpatrick skin type III and above to 52 weeks | Evaluated using DLQI questionnaire; DLQI-Relevant adjusted for non-relevant answers | 52 weeks |
| Evaluate efficacy of tildrakizumab using Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) in patients with Fitzpatrick skin types III and above |

Absolute and percent change from baseline to Week 16 and 52. Number and percent of patients achieving PASI 75, PASI 90, PASI 100 at Week 16 and 52 |
| Week 16, Week 52 |
| Evaluate efficacy of tildrakizumab using Body Surface Area (BSA) in patients with Fitzpatrick skin types III and above | Absolute and percent change from baseline to Week 16 and 52 | Week 16, Week 52 |
| Evaluate efficacy of tildrakizumab using static Physician Global Assessment (sPGA) in patients with Fitzpatrick skin types III and above | Absolute and percent change from baseline to Week 16 and 52. Number and percent of participants achieving score 0 or 1 with at least a 2-grade reduction from baseline at Week 16 and 52 | Week 16, Week 52 |
| Impact of tildrakizumab treatment on quality of life | Measured using Skindex-16 patient questionnaire. It consists of 16 items that assess three key domains affected by skin disease: symptoms, emotional impact, and functioning. Patients are asked to rate how often they experienced various impacts from their skin condition over the last seven days, using a seven-point response scale (0-6) that ranges from: 0 (never bothered) to 6 (always bothered). Absolute and percent change from baseline to Week 16 and 52 are calculated. | Week 16, Week 52 |
| Impact of tildrakizumab treatment on sleep | Measured using Medical Outcomes Study Sleep Scale (MOS-Sleep) patient questionnaire. Absolute and percent change from baseline to Week 16 and 52. Consisting of 12 items, MOS-Sleep measures subjective experiences of sleep across several different domains. Question 1 is a numerical scale 1-5, where 5 indicates most difficulty to fall asleep; question 2 asks average number of hours slept per night in last 4 weeks; questions 3-12 are numerical scale 1-6, where 1 is "all of the time" and 6 is "none of the time". | Week 16, Week 52 |
| Impact of tildrakizumab treatment on discomfort | Measured using Worst Itch Numerical Rating Scale (WI-NRS). Participants will use the NRS to rate their itch and skin pain, separately, on a scale ranging from 0 to 10, where: 0 indicates no skin pain or no itch, and 10 indicates the worst imaginable pain or itch. A 24-hour recall period will be applied. Absolute and percent change from baseline to Week 16 and 52 are calculated. | Week 16, Week 52 |
| Impact of tildrakizumab on skin pain | Measured using Skin Pain Numerical Rating Scale (SP-NRS) . Participants will use the NRS to rate their itch and skin pain, separately, on a scale ranging from 0 to 10, where: 0 indicates no skin pain or no itch, and 10 indicates the worst imaginable pain or itch. A 24-hour recall period will be applied. Absolute and percent change from baseline to Week 16 and Week 52 are calculated. | Week 16, Week 52 |
| Evaluate the correlation between clinical improvement (PASI, BSA, sPGA) and QoL outcomes, identifying how improvements in disease severity align with enhancements in QoL measures. | Change from baseline to Week 16 and 52 on PASI, BSA, sPGA vs. Change from baseline at Week 16 and 52 on DLQI, DLQI-R, Skindex-16, and MOS-Sleep | Week 16, Week 52 |
| Evaluate the safety of tildrakizumab over the course of the study | Number and percent of treatment emergent Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events over time. Number of events of unusual failure in efficacy over course of study. | Baseline to Week 52 |
| Assess patient adherence and satisfaction with tildrakizumab treatment | Treatment satisfaction questionnaire for medication (TSQM-9) score at Week 16 and 52. The TSQM-9 measures satisfaction across four key domains: a) Effectiveness: How well the treatment controls symptoms b) Side Effects: The patient's experience of side effects, if any, c) Convenience: How easy it is to use the treatment, d) Global Satisfaction: The overall satisfaction with the medication. Participants will rate individual items using a 7-point Likert scale ranging from "Extremely Dissatisfied" to "Extremely Satisfied." Number and type of participant withdrawals. Number of missed tildrakizumab treatments (self-report) | Baseline to Week 52 |
