Active clinical trials for "Psoriasis"

The human microbiota corresponds to an extremely rich and varied set of microorganisms that colonize our various epitheliums from birth, including the intestine, lungs and skin, where they interact continuously with our immune system. Changes in microbial composition and function, termed dysbiosis, have been linked to alterations in immune responses and to disease development, such as psoriasis. Recent research has shown that the gut microbiota can condition the therapeutic response to checkpoint inhibitors and that fecal microbiota transplant overcomes resistance to these therapy, suggesting a direct role for the microbiota in the ability to shape a therapeutic immune response. Antibiotic exposure during the course of cancer therapy negatively correlates with patients' response to anti-PD-1 treatment response, thus highlighting the link between the enrichment of specific microbial taxa in intestines and the response to immunotherapy. This observation suggests that treatments capable of modulating microbial networks and promoting specific bacterial clades may modulate the host's immune response. Hence, beyond their expected effect in the targeted tissue, part of the therapeutic effect of drugs could rely on this mechanism. In psoriasis patients, observational studies suggest that gut microbiome is altered differently after the use of anti-IL17 or anti-IL23 biologic agents. Main objective: To determine the evolution of microbial composition of fecal samples issued to patients who responded to a biologic agent (IL-17 inhibitors, IL-23 inhibitors) and have stopped their treatment for 2 to 4 weeks before the index date, at baseline and 6 months or clinical relapse after treatment discontinuation Design of the study: Prospective french multicentre observational cohort study Population of study participants: Patients with psoriasis in remission after IL23i or IL17inhibitor treatments and who have stopped their medication for 2 to 4 weeks. Number of participants included: 50 adult patients considered in remission and have stopped for at least 2 weeks and a maximum of 4 weeks, one of the following biologic agent: secukinumab, ixekizumab, brodalumab, bimekizumab, guselkumab, tildrakizumab, or risankizumab

CALYPSO clinical study is a phase 3 study which is carried out to establish the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetic equivalence of BCD-055 (adalimumab, manufactured by JSC BIOCAD, Russia) and Humira® when used in patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ixekizumab compared to fumaric acid esters (FAE) and methotrexate (MTX) in participants with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis who are naive to systemic treatment.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of guselkumab for the treatment of participants with palmoplantar pustulosis.

Rationale/hypothesis: Moderate-to-severe psoriasis can be treated with biologics. Objective To investigate whether the dose of biologics can be reduced in patients with psoriasis with stable disease. Study design: A pragmatic, multicentre, randomized, controlled, non-inferiority study with cost-effectiveness analysis. Study population: Patients with disease remission using normal dose of biologics. Intervention: 120 patients will be randomized into two groups: (1) dose reduction and (2) normal dose. Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary outcome is clinical effectiveness. Secondary outcomes are: health-related quality of life (HRQoL), number and time to disease flares, costs, health status, anti-drug antibody formation and serious adverse events

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of DSXS compared to a Placebo (vehicle) in patients with mild to moderate plaque psoriasis.

This is a Phase 2, multicenter, open-label study in subjects with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis aged 6 to 17 years, inclusive, intended to assess the safety, tolerability, and PK of apremilast with 2 weeks of oral apremilast treatment followed by a 48-week extension of apremilast treatment. Moderate to severe plaque psoriasis is defined as Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) ≥ 12, Body Surface Area (BSA) ≥ 10%, and static Physician Global Assessment (sPGA) of ≥ 3. The total study duration for each subject will last for up to a total of 107 weeks which includes screening, treatment (including the PK portion of the study and the extension treatment period), two short-term follow-up periods and a long-term follow-up period.

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of two concentrations (0.5 percent [%] and 1%) and two application frequencies (once a day and twice a day) of GSK2894512 cream for the topical treatment in subjects with plaque psoriasis. Results from this study will be considered when selecting the most appropriate concentration of GSK2894512 cream and dosing frequency in future clinical safety and efficacy studies. This is a multicenter (United States, Canada, and Japan), randomized, double-blind (sponsor-unblind), vehicle-controlled, 6-arm, parallel-group, dose-finding study. Two concentrations of GSK2894512 cream (0.5% and 1%) and a vehicle control cream will be equally randomized and evaluated following application to all psoriasis lesions (except on the scalp) once daily (evening) or twice daily (morning and evening) for 12 weeks. This study will consist of 3 periods: up to 4 weeks screening, 12 weeks double-blind treatment, and 4 weeks post-treatment follow-up. The total duration of subject participation will be approximately 16 to 20 weeks. Approximately 270 adult males and females subjects with plaque psoriasis will be screened in order to have at least 228 randomized subjects (38 subjects for each of the 6 treatment groups) and approximately 204 evaluable subjects overall. Approximately 30 subjects will be randomized in Japan to achieve at least 24 evaluable Japanese subjects.

This is a two-part, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in which VTP-43742 will be administered to normal healthy volunteers (NHV) and to moderate to severe psoriatic patients, both in sequential ascending dose panels.

The purpose of this study is to confirm the clinical efficacy and the safety of P-3073 in patients affected by isolated psoriatic nail(s) and/or those with psoriatic nails and concomitant mild to moderate plaque psoriasis.
