Active clinical trials for "Psoriasis"

To evaluate efficacy, safety, and tolerability of spesolimab (BI 655130) compared to placebo in patients with Generalized Pustular Psoriasis (GPP) presenting with an acute flare of moderate to severe intensity.

The primary objective of the study is to assess the impact of treatment with apremilast 30 mg twice daily for 16 weeks, compared to placebo, on health-related quality of life (QOL) in adults with manifestations of plaque psoriasis and impaired quality of life.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether early intervention with subcutaneous (s.c.) secukinumab 300 mg in patients with new-onset moderate to severe plaque psoriasis may lead to prolonged symptom free periods by preventing reactivation of old lesions or ultimately totally hindering the occurrence of new lesions, i.e., changing the natural course of the disease (Main Study).

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of Certolizumab Pegol (CZP) in the treatment of moderate to severe chronic plaque Psoriasis (PSO) in Japanese subjects.

Plaque psoriasis vulgaris is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder, affecting 1-3% of the population in Europe and the United States of America (USA) and represents one of the most prevalent immune inflammatory diseases. AZD0284 is a potent selective inverse agonist of RORg, which is being developed for the management of psoriasis. The current Phase 1 study investigates the safety, tolerability, food effect, pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) properties of single and repeated doses of AZD0284. The study will be conducted in healthy subjects. The study will be divided into 2 parts: Part 1 (SAD) and Part 2 (MAD), with Part 1 being split into 2 sub-parts: 1A (fasting) and 1B (fed). The results from this study will form the basis for decisions on future studies. The study will help to identify appropriate, well-tolerated doses that can be administered in subsequent studies in patients with psoriasis.

This trial will be a double-blind, multi-center, randomized, placebo controlled study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of SAN021 study drug when administered for up to 42 days to adults between the ages of 18 to 65 years who have a clinical diagnosis of mild-to-moderate plaque psoriasis.

GSK2981278 is an inverse agonist of retinoic acid receptor-related orphan receptor (ROR) gamma. The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, clinical effect, and systemic exposure potential of topically applied GSK2981278 ointment in subjects with plaque psoriasis by treating all plaques on the body for 8 weeks. This single-center study will be conducted in two parts. Part A will be an open-label, single arm study and part B will be a double-blind, randomized, 2-arm, parallel-group, vehicle-controlled study. In Part A, 8 adult subjects and in Part B, 18 adult subjects with chronic stable plaque psoriasis will be enrolled. Total duration of study will be approximately 14 weeks. The results of this study will provide preliminary information about safety and efficacy of the drug and will help in providing the guidance for further development strategy.

Infliximab and other TNF-inhibitors have revolutionised the treatment of several immunological inflammatory diseases. Still, more than half of the patients either do not respond sufficiently to infliximab therapy or loose efficacy over time. The large individual variation in the serum drug concentrations on standard doses and the development of anti-drug antibodies are thought to be main reasons for these treatment failures. An individualised treatment strategy based on systematic assessments of serum drug concentrations, therapeutic drug monitoring, has been proposed as a clinical tool to optimise efficacy of infliximab treatment. Therapeutic drug monitoring seems reasonable both from a clinical and an economical point of view, but the effectiveness of this treatment strategy still remain to be shown. The NOR-DRUM study is planned as a national, randomised controlled multicentre trial in two parts aiming to assess the effectiveness of therapeutic drug monitoring in order to achieve remission in patients with immunological inflammatory diseases starting infliximab treatment (part A) and in order to maintain disease control in patients on maintenance infliximab treatment (part B). The results of the NOR-DRUM study will hopefully contribute to an implementation of a personalised medicine approach to treatment with infliximab and other biological drugs.
