Filter by:The goal of this study is to collect more information from people with plaque psoriasis and to determine if insulin plays a role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. The main question it aims to answer is if insulin action is preserved or even enhanced in psoriatic lesions despite insulin resistance elsewhere. Participants with plaque psoriasis will have punch biopsies taken of lesional and non-lesional skin after an overnight fast and then during an oral glucose tolerance test. Biopsy specimens will then be assessed for markers of insulin action.
This is a phase II, multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo parallel-controlled clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of HB0034 in patients with generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) presenting with an acute flare of moderate to severe intensity.
This study was divided into three parts: single and multiple dosing and food effect study, which were designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of TQH3906 capsules administered in single or multiple dose escalation in healthy adult subjects.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate how effective JNJ-77242113 is in participants with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis compared to placebo and deucravacitinib.
A single arm, pilot study in which all eligible participants will be enrolled in an 8-week coach-guided smartphone delivered CBT program. The full duration of the program, with follow-up interview, will be 9 weeks.
Introduction Pollution is a significant public health issue. Research has shown a positive correlation between air pollution and chronic inflammatory dermatoses, including psoriasis and eczema. The incidence of these diseases has been steadily increasing since the beginning of industrialization. The mechanism behind this association involves the activation of the aromatic hydrocarbon receptor (AhR). The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) plays a role in regulating the balance between T helper 17 (TH17) and regulatory T cells (TREG), as well as in generating oxidative stress and producing pro-inflammatory cytokines. Studies in cultured keratinocytes have shown that a non-competitive antagonist that modulates AhR activity can reduce cutaneous inflammatory processes induced by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Objectives: It has been suggested that activation of the AhR by PAHs and dioxins may be related to the pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis and psoriasis. The main objective is to compare the levels of AhR pathway activation markers between cases and controls. Secondary objectives include correlating environmental exposure to AhR ligands with disease severity in patients. Finally, we will compare the expression of inflammatory and AhR activation markers in cultured peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) after in vitro stimulation with benzo(a)pyrene. Material and methods: The study will measure exposure to pollutants by determining blood dioxins and urinary PAH metabolites. Pro-inflammatory cytokines IL1β, TNFα, IL23, IL17 and IFNγ and Malondialdehyde (MDA) serum concentrations will be measured by ELISA. The TREG and TH17 lymphocyte population ratio will be evaluated by flow cytometry on isolated PBMCs. Additionally, the level of expression of CYP 1A1 and 1B1, pollutant-metabolizing enzymes induced by AhR, will be assessed on isolated PBMCs. The expression levels of the AhR and NfkB active fractions will be determined by immunofluorescence. Subsequently, levels of AhR activation markers will be compared after stimulation of PBMCs with benzo(a)pyrene.
Psoriasis is a systemic chronic relapsing immune-mediated disease which often requires a long-term therapy. Psoriasis occurs in around 2-3% of the total global population. In Egypt, the prevalence of psoriasis ranges between 0.19% and 3%. Besides, it could have profound implications on the patients' psychological state and quality of life. It is presented by erythematous, scaly plaques over the preferred sites. The pathogenesis of this highly complex disease is still far from being fully understood. Keratinocytes' hyperproliferation and immune system dysfunctions are well recognized contributors, with numerous treatments targeting these unique immunologic dysfunctions.
The main objective of this study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of si-544. Other objectives are to study the metabolism of si-544 in the body and to assess the effects of si-544 on cells of the body's immune system (immune cells) that have been chronically activated by the disease. Likewise, the effect of si-544 on inflammatory responses in the body triggered by the disease and other disease symptoms will be investigated.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of SHR-1314 injection in healthy subjects at different specifications devices.
The primary objective is to assess with the PPQ questionnaire the patient preference for Wynzora compared with therapy carried out previously with Enstilar spray foam. Secondary objectives Assess satisfaction with the treatment. Assess adherence to therapy. Evaluate the impact of various clinical and demographic factors on treatment adherence. Evaluate the efficacy of Wynzora cream therapy.
