Clinical Trial Summary

Th purpose of the study is to evaluate the dose response of JNJ-77242113 in efficacy at Week 16 in participants with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis.

Description:

The populations of people living with moderate to severe psoriasis is approximately 3.5 billion which are mostly managed with topical and conventional therapies. JNJ-77242113, investigational drug, targets the immune responses in the body and skin which impacts diseases, such as psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and this study evaluates JNJ-77242113 as options of advanced therapies in moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. The total duration of this study is up to 24 weeks which includes a screening period of less than or equal to (<=) 4 weeks, a 16-week treatment period, and a 4-week safety follow-up period. Safety will be assessed by adverse events (AEs), clinical safety laboratory assessments, electrocardiograms (ECGs), vital signs and physical examinations.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Percentage of Participants Achieving Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) 75 Score at Week 16	Percentage of participants achieving PASI 75 score (greater than or equal to [>=] 75 percentage [%] improvement from baseline in PASI) at Week 16 will be reported. The PASI is a system used for assessing and grading the severity of psoriatic lesions and their response to therapy. In the PASI system, the body is divided into 4 regions: the head, trunk, upper extremities, and lower extremities. Each of these areas is assessed and scored separately for erythema, induration, and scaling, which are each rated on a scale of 0 to 4 and extent of involvement on a scale of 0 to 6. The PASI produces a numeric score that can range from 0 to 72. A higher score indicates more severe disease.	Week 16
Secondary	Change from Baseline in PASI Total Score at Week 16	Change from baseline in PASI total score at Week 16 will be reported.	From baseline to Week 16
Secondary	Percentage of Participants Achieving PASI 90 Score at Week 16	Percentage of participants achieving PASI 90 score (>=90% improvement from baseline in PASI) at Week 16 will be reported.	Week 16
Secondary	Percentage of Participants Achieving PASI 100 Score at Week 16	Percentage of participants achieving PASI 100 score (100% improvement from baseline in PASI) at Week 16 will be reported.	Week 16
Secondary	Percentage of Participants Achieving an Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) Score of Cleared (0) or Minimal (1) at Week 16	Percentage of participants who achieve an IGA score of cleared (0) or minimal (1) at Week 16 will be reported. The IGA documents the investigator's assessment of the participants psoriasis at a given time point. Overall lesions are graded for induration, erythema, and scaling. The participant's psoriasis is assessed as cleared (0), minimal (1), mild (2), moderate (3), or severe (4).	Week 16
Secondary	Percentage of Participants Achieving an IGA Score of Cleared (0) at Week 16	Percentage of participants who achieve an IGA score of cleared (0) at Week 16 will be reported.	Week 16
Secondary	Change from Baseline in Body Surface Area (BSA) at Week 16	Change from baseline in BSA at Week 16 will be reported. Body Surface Area is a commonly used measure of severity of skin disease. It is defined as the percentage of surface area of the body involved with the condition being assessed, (that is, plaque psoriasis).	From baseline to Week 16
Secondary	Change from Baseline in Psoriasis Symptoms and Signs Diary (PSSD) Symptoms Scores at Week 16	Change from baseline in PSSD symptoms scores at Week 16 will be reported. The PSSD includes patient-reported outcome (PRO) questionnaire designed to measure the severity of psoriasis symptoms and signs over the previous 7 days for the assessment of treatment benefit. The PSSD is a self-administered PRO instrument that includes 11 items covering symptoms (itch, pain, stinging, burning, and skin tightness) and patient-observable signs (skin dryness, cracking, scaling, shedding or flaking, redness, and bleeding) using 0 to 10 numerical rating scales for severity. Two subscores will be derived each ranging from 0 to 100: the psoriasis symptom score and the psoriasis sign score. A higher score indicates more severe disease.	From baseline to Week 16
Secondary	Change from Baseline in PSSD Signs Score at Week 16	Change from baseline in PSSD signs score at Week 16 will be reported.	From baseline to Week 16
Secondary	Percentage of Participants Achieving PSSD Symptoms Score=0 at Week 16 in Participants with a Baseline Symptoms Score >=1	Percentage of participants achieving PSSD symptoms score=0 at Week 16 in participants with a baseline symptoms score >=1 will be reported.	Week 16
Secondary	Percentage of Participants Achieving PSSD Sign Score=0 at Week 16 in Participants with a Baseline Sign Score >=1	Percentage of participants achieving PSSD sign score=0 at Week 16 in participants with a baseline sign score >=1 will be reported.	Week 16
Secondary	Percentage of Participants Achieving a Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) of 0 or 1 at Week 16 in Participants with Baseline DLQI Score >1	The DLQI is a dermatology-specific health-related quality of life (HRQoL) instrument designed to assess the impact of the disease on a participant's HRQoL. It is a 10-item questionnaire that assesses HRQoL over the past 7 days and in addition to evaluating overall HRQoL, can be used to assess 6 different aspects that may affect quality of life: symptoms and feelings, daily activities, leisure, work or school performance, personal relationships, and treatment. The total score ranges from 0 to 30 with a higher score indicating greater impact on HRQoL.	Week 16
Secondary	Change from Baseline in Patient-reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS-29) Domain Score at Week 16	Change from baseline in PROMIS-29 domain scores at week 16 will be reported. The PROMIS-29 is a 29-item generic HRQoL instrument assessing 7 PROMIS domains (depression, anxiety, physical function, pain interference, fatigue, sleep disturbance, and ability to participate in social roles and activities) with 4 questions for each domain. These questions are ranked on a 5-point Likert scale. There is also a numerical rating scale that ranges from 0 (No pain) to 10 (Worst pain imaginable) for pain intensity. The raw domain scores are converted to standardized T-scores with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10. Higher scores on anxiety, depression, fatigue, sleep disturbance, and pain interference indicate more severe symptoms. Higher scores on physical function and social participation indicate better health outcomes.	From baseline to Week 16
Secondary	Percentage of Participants Who Achieve >= 5-Point Improvement from Baseline in PROMIS-29 Domain Score at Week 16	Percentage of participants who achieve >=5-point improvement from baseline in PROMIS-29 domain score at Week 16 will be reported.	Week 16
Secondary	Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs)	An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical event that occurs in a participant administered an investigational product, and it does not necessarily indicate only events with clear causal relationship with the relevant investigational product.	Up to 24 weeks
Secondary	Number of Participants with Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)	SAE is an adverse event resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly/birth defect; suspected transmission of any infectious agent via a medicinal product or medically important.	Up to 24 weeks
