Filter by:Tachyphylaxis occurs when a medication is applied multiple times and a decreased response takes place. Many dermatologists believe that tachyphylaxis to topical steroids commonly occur. Other believe that tachyphylaxis can be explain by patient non-compliance with topical medications. This study is looking to prove or disprove the phenomenon of tachyphylaxis by using topical steroids in the psoriasis patient population. The investigators are looking to enroll 10 patients with symmetric, bilateral, and small psoriasis plaques. The investigators will either apply a strong topical steroid or a vehicle ointment to the plaques, which is be occluded with a band aid for a one week period. Weekly, the investigators will inspect the plaques for tachyphylaxis. This regimen will be repeated during phase 2, to see if there is change in the time to tachyphylaxis. This regimen will be repeated during phase 3, however, both plaques will be treated with steroid in this phase, and time to tachyphylaxis will be measured.
Metabolomics of systemic psoriasis treatment
This multicenter, post marketing observational study (PMOS) was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of adalimumab over a period of 9 months as determined by the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) in participants with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis with distinct co-morbidities. Secondary objectives of this study were to measure changes in psychological health via the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI); changes in comorbidities with respect to gender; changes in quality of life using the Short Form Health Survey (SF-36); and evaluation of Minimal Clinically Important Differences (MCID).
This was a Canadian post-marketing observational study (PMOS) utilizing a prospective cohort design that compared the real - life effectiveness of adalimumab to topical and traditional systemic agents in the management of psoriasis and its impact on the patient's quality of life and societal burden of illness.
This is a 73-day phase II, open label trial of the true human monoclonal antibody RA-18C3 in subjects with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. Ten (10) subjects will receive 200 mg of RA-18C3 via subcutaneous injection. Subjects will receive injections at Days 0, 21, and 42 for a total of 3 injections. Study drug will be administered under close observation in a facility equipped to handle medical emergencies. Subjects will not be discharged from the facility until at least 1 hour following the end of the injection or 1 hour after their vital signs have stabilized. Safety will be assessed by pre- and post-treatment serial measurements of vital signs, clinical laboratory assessments, and the recording of adverse clinical events.
There is growing evidence that psoriasis is a systemic disorder which enhances atherosclerosis and the risk of cardiovascular disease. Epidemiological studies have shown an independent association between psoriasis and atherosclerosis, stroke and coronary artery disease. The main goal of this on-going study is to register data which will enable the identification of new markers of atherosclerosis activity and carotid plaque instability in patients with severe psoriasis.
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory hyperproliferative disease of the skin affecting approximately 2% of the world's population.This phase IV study is planned to monitor performance of Tinefcon in patients suffering from psoriasis under conditions of actual use and fulfill requirements to monitor all adverse drug reactions (ADRs) in psoriasis patients treated with Tinefcon. This study will add to literature on the risks and benefits of Tinefcon the novel oral TNF-alpha release inhibitor.
The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of DermiPsor's DPS-102 (test product) in patients with scalp Psoroasis. The study is also intended to assess the safety of the product.
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of secukinumab compared to placebo in patients that have moderate to severe, chronic, plaque-type psoriasis.
The aim of the exploratory study is to compare the dose-related efficacy of LAS41004 in a Psoriasis Plaque Test (PPT).
