While many of the available agents have proven to be efficacious and safe for the treatment of axial spondyloarthritis, a remarkable percentage of patients either fail or cannot tolerate these medications. This has prompted researchers to look for new targets that would maximize efficacy and minimize toxicity. In this article, we review novel agents that were recently approved, in trials, and possible future targets or mechanisms. We also discuss their role as it pertains to the prevention of radiographic progression and the management of extra-musculoskeletal manifestations.
