Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 Inhibition and Narrow-band Ultraviolet-B Light in Psoriasis (DINUP)
PsoriasisThe primary purpose of this study is to determine if sitagliptin (Januvia®) improves psoriasis severity after 24 weeks of treatment in 60 participants with psoriasis who do not have type 2 diabetes mellitus, and who are due to receive a course of narrowband ultraviolet-B phototherapy (NB-UVB). The investigators will compare the change in psoriasis severity in 60 participants treated with both sitagliptin and NB-UVB to 60 participants treated with NB-UVB alone. Participants will be recruited from two centres and after a 3 week run-in period will be followed prospectively for 36 weeks. Participants will be stratified by centre, plasma glycated haemoglobin level (HbA1c), obesity status and previous response to NB-UVB, after which they will be randomly allocated to Arm A or Arm B. Participants will be treated with either sitagliptin for 24 weeks and NB-UVB (Arm A), or NB-UVB alone (Arm B). Both the research participants and the investigators will be aware of the trial arm to which the research participant has been allocated randomly (open-label study). Research participants are prohibited from using systemic psoriasis therapy for the duration of their trial involvement. Participants will be assessed at 8 study visits over 39 weeks. Participants will complete questionnaires, have a medical history recorded and physical examination, blood sampling and skin biopsies taken (in a small number of willing participants at 2 visits). The following endpoints will be analysed: Changes in psoriasis severity at 24 and 36 weeks; changes in validated quality of life scores; incidence of adverse events; incidence of discontinuation of one of the study IMPs, time to relapse of psoriasis; changes in cardiovascular disease risk factor profiles; changes in cytokines, hormones, expression of immune proteins in blood and skin biopsies; and genetic profiles that predicts best response to sitagliptin therapy. The investigators hypothesize that sitagliptin therapy decreases psoriasis severity.
