Filter by:This was a retrospective, observational study. The objective of the study is investigate the efficacy and safety of secukinumab without the initial weekly loading dose in patients with chronic plaque psoriasis. Patients were stratified in two groups, those receiving secukinumab at the dose 300 mg every 4 weeks from the beginning (cases) and those who received the initial label, weekly loading dose (controls). Efficacy was evaluated by comparing the proportion of patients achieving PASI75 responses at week 16, 32 and 48 between cases and controls. Safety was evaluated by reporting every adverse events up to week 48.
Rationale: Psoriasis (PsO) is a common inflammatory skin disease. Besides the skin, it is recognized that this disease can affect multiple domains such as nails, joints and entheses. About 30% of the patients with PsO will develop symptoms in the musculoskeletal domains. Untreated inflammation in psoriatic arthritis (PsA) can lead to irreversible joint damage and further reduces quality of life. Since musculoskeletal involvement is often preceded by the dermatological symptoms of PsO, patients with pure cutaneous psoriasis (PsC) should be routinely screened for joint involvement. Current screening questionnaires, like the often used Psoriasis Epidemiology Screening Tool (PEST), offer a moderate discrimination between patients with PsA and PsC at best. Our aim is to assert the prevalence of known and previously undiagnosed PsA in a PsC cohort. By comparing the gathered data of the PsA and PsC patients, we hope to improve the screening of PsC patients, and to reduce both undertreatment of locomotor symptoms as well as unnecessary diagnostic investigations. Objective: To ascertain the prevalence of PsA in a tertiary PsO cohort. Secondary objectives will be to ascertain the clinical features of these patients. With these features we want to find clinical, laboratory or genetic markers to predict the presence of PsA in PsO patients. Moreover, we wish to establish the added value of PsA screening for the quality of life (QoL) of PsO patients. Study design: Multicenter cross-sectional study with a single follow-up visit after 1 year. Patients will be screened at baseline for PsA symptoms by a rheumatology resident and referred to a rheumatology clinic if deemed necessary. At baseline, several clinical and sociodemographic parameters will be assessed. We will collect blood samples for diverse biochemical studies and genomic DNA. Patients will be followed for 1 year after active screening for PsA. Quality of life (QoL) and treatment change will be recorded after this period, to assess the effect of screening and referral.
A sterile swap specimen taken from the scalp of the patients with psoriasis vulgaris or seborrheic dermatitis and the volunteer control group will be examined in our study. The examples of the microbiota of the patients will be taken both the lesional scalp and the lesion-free part of the scalp. Then, the microbiota differences between the lesioned scalp and the lesion-free scalp of both groups, and the microbiome differences between the two groups and the control group will be evaluated.
Comparison of the efficacy of LEO 90100 foam with Dovobet® ointment in the treatment of psoriasis in Japanese subjects.
This trial is a randomized, investigator-blind, multicentre, vehicle- and comparator-controlled, parallel-group trial with the purpose of evaluating the efficacy, safety and convenience of the MC2-01 cream.
Single center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study to assess the safety and tolerability of PBF-1650 in order to obtain the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD).
The purpose of this study is to collect skin biopsies and non-invasive microneedle device samples from participants with mild chronic plaque psoriasis vulgaris to use for transcriptomics profiling for further investigation.
To evaluate efficacy, safety, and tolerability of spesolimab (BI 655130) compared to placebo in patients with Generalized Pustular Psoriasis (GPP) presenting with an acute flare of moderate to severe intensity.
This Phase 3 multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of apremilast in subjects with moderate to severe genital psoriasis (modified sPGA-G ≥3, moderate or severe). Approximately 286 subjects with moderate to severe genital psoriasis will be randomized 1:1 to receive either apremilast 30 mg BID or placebo for the first 16 weeks.
The primary objective of the study is to assess the impact of treatment with apremilast 30 mg twice daily for 16 weeks, compared to placebo, on health-related quality of life (QOL) in adults with manifestations of plaque psoriasis and impaired quality of life.
