Filter by:A study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of adalimumab in Chinese subjects with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.
This is a study of itacitinib in patients with chronic plaque psoriasis. This study will evaluate safety and efficacy parameters of itacitinib.
This is a double-blind, multicenter, vehicle-controlled, parallel group comparison study to determine and compare the efficacy and safety of HBP Lotion 0.05% and Vehicle Lotion applied twice daily for two weeks in subjects with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. Eligible subjects will be randomized (1:1) to one of two treatment groups - HBP Lotion 0.05% or Vehicle Lotion. The maximum amount of test article to be applied per week should not exceed 50 grams.
Investigation of EGF-Receptor Downregulation by topical EGF (dermal cream) exposition.
This is a single site, randomized, placebo-controlled, cross-over trial of sub-cutaneous injections of placebo and Stelara™ (ustekinumab) in subjects with scalp psoriasis.The purpose of the study is to assess the effectiveness of Stelara™ (ustekinumab)in the treatment of scalp psoriasis by determining the proportion of subjects who clear or almost clear in scalp specific physician assessments. The study will include approximately 30 subjects.
This study will determine the prevalence of small bowel lesions suggestive of Crohn's disease (CD) in patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis using capsule endoscopy. The study also aims to determine if the treatment of psoriasis with adalimumab will have an effect on the healing of the small bowel for patients who have lesions suggestive of CD. Patients with psoriasis are at increased risk of developing Crohn's disease (CD), but the exact prevalence of CD in patients with psoriasis at this time is unknown as many patients probably have undiagnosed disease as the early signs will often cause no symptoms. CD is therefore receiving very little attention from dermatologists who are treating patients with psoriasis. For example, very few dermatologists will actively question patients with psoriasis about symptoms of CD. This lack of knowledge may induce delays in diagnosis. By the time the diagnosis is made and patients receive their first treatment, they may already have significant fibrosis and stenosis of the intestine. Current treatments, including adalimumab, cannot reverse small bowel anomalies to normal in the presence of fibrosis. Therefore, many patients with a late diagnosis will still have symptoms or will eventually require surgery despite good control of the inflammation. Treatment of CD should start as early as possible, as early treatment has been associated with an increased rate of complete healing. Complete control of the disease at its early stages may prevent complications.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and efficacy of 12 weeks of treatment with Apo805K1 in subjects with moderate to severe chronic plaque 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 main objective of the study is to evaluate the additional effect of a narrow band Type B Ultraviolet (UVB) therapy on the treatment of severe plaque psoriasis with fumaric acid esters (FAE) in comparison to FAE monotherapy. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the effect of an additional narrow band UVB therapy on the cumulative FAE dose required to reach Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) 75 in comparison to FAE monotherapy and to evaluate whether a leukopenia and lymphopenia frequently occurring during the FAE treatment is a positive predictive factor for the treatment response.
IFN-gamma is a central player in the development of psoriasis lesions, which can be involved a variety of cellular processes in the skin. Dendritic cells are important cells in driving inflammation in psoriasis through the induction of T cells that produce IL-17 in psoriasis. Injecting IFN-g into the skin can increase the numbers of T cells and also inflammatory DCs that produce cytokines involved in IL-17 production. Thus, the investigators hypothesize that the dendritic cells present in the skin after IFN-g injection polarize IL-17-producing T cells.
