What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of patients with ≥ 75% improvement of Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score from baseline to 24 weeks
Time Frame: 24 weeks
The Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) is a measure of disease activity assessed using the degree of body surface area involvement, the severity of lesions, and assessment of lesional erythema, induration, and scaling. These calculations are combined into a single score that ranges from 0 (no skin disease) to 72 (near complete skin involvement).
24 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of patients with ≥ 90% improvement of Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score from baseline to 28 weeks
Time Frame: 28 weeks
The Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) is a measure of disease activity assessed using the degree of body surface area involvement, the severity of lesions, and assessment of lesional erythema, induration, and scaling. These calculations are combined into a single score that ranges from 0 (no skin disease) to 72 (near complete skin involvement).
28 weeks
Change in Physician Global Assessment (PGA) score
Time Frame: Baseline, 28 weeks
The Physician Global Assessment (PGA) is a clinician-reported 5 point sacle used to evaluate overall disease activity. Ratings range from 0=clear (no signs of PRP, post-inflammatory pigmentation may be present); 1=almost clear (minimal plaque elevation, scaling or erythema); 2 =mild (slight plaque elevation, scaling, erythema); 3=moderate (moderate plaque elevation, scaling, and erythema); 4 =severe (very marked plaque elevation, scaling, and erythema)
Baseline, 28 weeks
Change in Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) score
Time Frame: Baseline, 28 weeks
The Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) consists of 10 standardized items measuring impact of skin disease rated as 0=not at all/not relevant; 1=a little; 2=a lot; 3=very much
Baseline, 28 weeks
