Filter by:The purpose of this study is to compare the safety, efficacy and calcium metabolism of up to 8 weeks of treatment with calcitriol 3 mcg/g ointment versus its vehicle, when used twice daily, without occlusion, to treat children aged 2 to 12 years, with plaque psoriasis.
Proof-of concept study to competitively investigate antipsoriatic efficacy and safety of a LAS41004 formulation vs active control No formal study hypothesis, but descriptive evaluation (PoC).
The study objectives are the following: 1. To evaluate the efficacy of 3 doses of XP23829 compared to placebo for the treatment of moderate-to-severe chronic plaque-type psoriasis. 2. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of XP23829 in subjects with psoriasis. 3. To evaluate the pharmacodynamics (PD) of XP23829 through immunological analysis of peripheral blood samples.
Psoriasis is a common skin disease, which affects 2-3% of the population. Up to two third of patients with psoriasis develop nail changes. These visible changes can be painful and disabling and are associated with social stigma. Most topical treatments are only partially effective. Systemic treatments can have serious side effects. Excimer laser is a form of targeted ultraviolet light therapy that has been successfully used to treat isolated psoriatic plaques on difficult to treat areas such as scalp or palms. The purpose of this study is to investigate efficacy of excimer laser for treatment of fingernail psoriasis. Sixteen patients with stable fairly symmetric fingernail psoriasis will be enrolled. After obtaining informed consent, an investigator will evaluate the severity of nail psoriasis in each hand using an objective score, called Modified Nail Psoriasis Severity Index (mNAPSI). In a random fashion, one hand will be treated with excimer laser and the other hand will receive sham treatment. During the treatments, patients will wear protective eyewear that does not permit them to see which hand receives active treatment and which hand receives sham treatment. Patients will be treated twice a week for 8 weeks. At weeks 8, 12, and16 the investigator who is blinded to the treatment assignments will re-evaluate the fingernails using mNAPSI score. Mean change from baseline mNAPSI score at weeks 8, 12, and 16 in hands treated with excimer compared to hands treated with sham will be measured. We will also measure patient's assessment of severity of nail disease and the pain or any adverse events associated with laser treatments. Given the slow growth rate of fingernails, the final evaluations will be performed at week 16. In summary, this is the first controlled study to evaluate efficacy of excimer laser in fingernail psoriasis. If found to be effective, excimer laser could be used as a safe, locally administered treatment for recalcitrant nail psoriasis.
Injectable biologic drugs are used as a treatment of psoriasis. These injections can sometimes be associated with pain. In this study the investigators aim to reduce the pain by applying heat or ice to the skin 2-3 minutes before injecting the drug, and to compare the pain to injection without any heat or ice.
The aim of this study is to determine if videocapillaroscopy could be used as an objective and reliable method to assess psoriasis severity and to document improvement during treatment by measuring changes in vascular features.
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy profiles of Tazarotene Cream, 0.05% and Tazorac® (Tazarotene) Cream, 0.05% in order to demonstrate bioequivalence and to demonstrate the superiority of the 2 active creams over that of the Vehicle (placebo) in the treatment of plaque psoriasis.
This is a multicenter, Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in subjects with moderate to severe psoriasis to assess the safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and efficacy of multiple subcutaneous ascending doses of MSB0010841 (Anti-interleukin-17A/F [Anti-IL-17A/F] Nanobody).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the association between genetic factors and response to treatment (guselkumab, ustekinumab, adalimumab, or etanercept) and psoriasis (scaly skin rash).
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of switching from Remicade to the biosimilar treatment Remsima in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease and chronic plaque psoriasis
