Clinical Trial Summary

Chronic plaque psoriasis is frequently associated with obesity and previous studies have shown that a calorie-controlled diet inducing body weight loss improves symptoms and increases the response to pharmacologic treatment. Besides, clinical improvement has been directly correlated with the amount of weight loss. Short-term very low-calorie ketogenic diets are responsible for substantial weight loss and attenuate systemic inflammation to a higher extent than moderately hypocaloric diets. This intervention has been recently demonstrated to restore, after only 4 week, the response to biological therapy in a patient suffering from relapsing moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis and obesity-related metabolic syndrome. We investigated the efficacy of an aggressive weight loss program with a ketogenic induction phase in a single-arm trial that could provide the rationale for a large randomized trial.
