While doing some research, I found a nice write up about PsA...

Quote: PsA Q4: In patients with psoriatic arthritis, is there a difference between biologic monotherapy and combination biologic-nonbiologic therapy in terms of efficacy, effectiveness, safety, or tolerability?

Recent evidence suggests that methotrexate is not efficacious and is not a DMARD in PsA (3 RCTs).

There is insufficient evidence to determine the efficacy and safety of biologic-nonbiologic combination therapy relative to biologic monotherapy.
