Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Proportion of participants with ≥75% improvement in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score 12 weeks after retreatment with Benvitimod cream or placebo
The PASI scoring system is a widely-used standard clinical tool for assessing the severity of psoriasis that takes into account the overall severity of erythema (redness), induration (plaque thickness), and scale, and the extent of %Body Surface Area (BSA) affected with psoriasis. The 3 clinical signs are each graded on a 5-point scale (0 to 4) and the %BSA affected is scored on a 7-point scale (0 to 6) for each of the 4 specified body regions (head, upper extremities, trunk, and lower extremities). The individual scores are multiplied by a weighted factor for each body region; the sum of these scores gives the overall PASI score. Higher scores indicate more severe disease. PASI is a static assessment made without reference to previous scores.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Proportion of participants with ≥90% improvement in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score 12 weeks after retreatment with Benvitimod cream or placebo
The PASI scoring system is a widely-used standard clinical tool for assessing the severity of psoriasis that takes into account the overall severity of erythema (redness), induration (plaque thickness), and scale, and the extent of %Body Surface Area (BSA) affected with psoriasis. The 3 clinical signs are each graded on a 5-point scale (0 to 4) and the %BSA affected is scored on a 7-point scale (0 to 6) for each of the 4 specified body regions (head, upper extremities, trunk, and lower extremities). The individual scores are multiplied by a weighted factor for each body region; the sum of these scores gives the overall PASI score. Higher scores indicate more severe disease. PASI is a static assessment made without reference to previous scores.
Proportion of participants who Physician Global Assessment (PGA) score achieved 0 or 1 12 weeks after retreatment with Benvitimod cream or placebo
The PGA is a clinical tool for assessing the current state/severity of a participant's psoriasis at a given timepoint. It is a static 6-point (0-5) morphological assessment of overall disease severity, as determined by the investigator, using the clinical characteristics of erythema, scaling, and plaque thickness/elevation as guidelines. Higher PGA scores represent more severe disease.
Change of Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score over time after retreatment with Benvitimod cream or placebo
The PASI scoring system is a widely-used standard clinical tool for assessing the severity of psoriasis that takes into account the overall severity of erythema (redness), induration (plaque thickness), and scale, and the extent of %Body Surface Area (BSA) affected with psoriasis. The 3 clinical signs are each graded on a 5-point scale (0 to 4) and the %BSA affected is scored on a 7-point scale (0 to 6) for each of the 4 specified body regions (head, upper extremities, trunk, and lower extremities). The individual scores are multiplied by a weighted factor for each body region; the sum of these scores gives the overall PASI score. Higher scores indicate more severe disease. PASI is a static assessment made without reference to previous scores.
Change of erythema (redness), induration (plaque thickness), and scale score in the skin lesions over time after retreatment with Benvitimod cream or placebo
Change of erythema (redness), induration (plaque thickness), and scale score in the skin lesions over time after retreatment with Benvitimod cream or placebo
Duration of remission after treatment response
Duration of remission after treatment response
The Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) total and individual dimension scores
The DLQI is a simple dermatology-specific 10-question validated questionnaire to assess the impact of the disease on a participant's quality of life. DLQI scores range from 0 to 30, with a higher score indicating a more impaired quality of life.
European Questionnaires Five Dimensions Five Levels (EQ-5D-5L) scores
EQ-5D-5L is a standardized instrument for measuring generic health status. Rated level can be coded as a number 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5, which indicates having no problems for 1, having some problems for 2, having moderate problems for 3, having serious problems for 4 and having extreme problems for 5.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This is a retreatment, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Benvitimod cream, 1% twice daily for the retreatment of mild to moderate stable psoriasis vulgaris in adults. Approximately 390 participants with mild to moderate stable psoriasis vulgaris will be enrolled and randomly divided into two groups in a 2:1 ratio. They will use either the Benvitimod cream or placebo at the skin with psoriasis vulgaris for 12 weeks.
Detailed Description
This is a retreatment, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Benvitimod cream, 1% twice daily for the retreatment of mild to moderate stable psoriasis vulgaris in adults. Approximately 390 participants with mild to moderate stable psoriasis vulgaris will be enrolled and randomly divided into two groups in a 2:1 ratio. They will use either the Benvitimod cream or placebo at the skin with psoriasis vulgaris for 12 weeks. The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Benvitimod cream in the long-term (intermittent) treatment of mild to moderate psoriasis vulgaris. The primary endpoint is proportion of participants with ≥75% improvement in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score 12 weeks after retreatment with Benvitimod cream or placebo. The study is anticipated to last from April 2022 to August 2023 with 390 participants recruited form about 20 centers in China. All the related investigative organization and individuals will obey the Declaration of Helsinki and Chinese Good Clinical Practice standard. The study has been approved by Institutional Review Board (IRB) and Ethics Committee (EC) in Peking University People's Hospital.
