Filter by:This is a randomized double blind, double dummy, placebo controlled, parallel design study that is being performed to assess the safety and efficacy of BI 655066 (risankizumab).
The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility and safety of topical administration of etanercept via AFL micropores to psoriatic plaques in patients with mild to moderate plaque-type psoriasis. While a wide variety of therapeutic innovations to treat moderate-to-severe psoriasis (accounting for around 30% of the cases) become available each year, there are few innovations for topical therapies to treat mild/localized psoriasis (accounting for around 70% of the cases). Given that only about half of the patients respond adequately to the current standard of care, the topical application of a fixed combination of calcipotriole and betamethasone, there is a medical need for better topical therapies. Etanercept has been used successfully to treat moderate-to-severe plaque-type psoriasis in children and adults for more than a decade. Its standard route of application is through subcutaneous injections. Different dosing regimens have been used: 1 x 50 mg or 2 x 50 mg per week as well as 1 x 25 mg or 2 x 25 mg per week. Under these regimens, etanercept has a well-established favorable long-term safety record, with injection site reactions (pain, swelling) the most frequently reported side effects. However, rare but serious side effects such as serious opportunistic infections resulting from immune system inhibition common to anti-TNF agents limit its systemic use to these patients. For this reason, a localized topical alternative route of administration would be desirable. However, the large molecular size and chemical nature of etanercept prevent it from crossing the epidermal barrier. A CE certified ablative fractional laser (AFL) device with Er:YAG source will be used to create micropores in plaques to allow local delivery of etanercept directly into psoriatic plaques.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the psychological impact of psoriasis or hidradenitis suppurativa on patients, in order to compare both pathologies.
This study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of topical application of NP000888 ointment compared to vehicle in plaque and fingernail psoriasis subjects. Duration of administration: 24 weeks
This study is known as a "drug interaction study." The purpose is to learn about how ixekizumab may affect the blood levels of a mixture of commonly used drugs (caffeine, omeprazole, warfarin, dextromethorphan, and midazolam) that are metabolized by cytochrome P450. Each participant will complete two study periods. Participants will take the mixture of commonly used drugs (plus vitamin K) by mouth on 3 occasions (prior to treatment with ixekizumab and after 1 and 12 weeks of treatment with ixekizumab). The study will last about 17 weeks, including follow-up. Screening must be completed prior to study start.
This trial will be a double-blind, single-center, randomized, placebo controlled study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of SAN021 study drug when administered for up to 42 days to adults between the ages of 18 to 65 years who have a clinical diagnosis of mild-to-moderate plaque psoriasis.
Ultraviolet (UV) phototherapy is a standard treatment for many inflammatory dermatological diseases, including psoriasis. The systemic effects of UV phototherapy are still not well studied. There are several factors that may affect patient's cardiovascular (CV) risk during UV phototherapy. Atherosclerosis is now known to have an inflammatory origin and to be frequently associated with psoriasis. In this study the investigators aim at studying the effect of psoralen-UVA phototherapy on several biomarkers of CV risk in patients with psoriasis with or without atherosclerosis.
