Overview

Brief Summary

This is a Phase 2b, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, dose ranging study to investigate the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of Bimekizumab compared with placebo in adult subjects with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis in order to guide the selection of doses and clinical indices in the Phase 3 development program.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Percentage of Participants Achieving a 90% or Higher Improvement From Baseline in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) Score at Week 12

Time Frame: Week 12

The PASI90 response assessments are based on at least 90% improvement in the PASI score from Baseline. This is a scoring system that averages the redness, thickness, and scaliness of the psoriatic lesions (on a 0-4 scale), and weights the resulting score by the area of skin involved. Body divided into 4 areas: head, arms, trunk to groin, and legs to top of buttocks. Assignment of an average score for the redness, thickness, and scaling for each of the 4 body areas with a score of 0 (clear) to 4 (very marked). Determining the percentage of skin covered with PSO for each of the body areas and converting to a 0 to 6 scale. Final PASI= average redness, thickness, and scaliness of the psoriatic skin lesions, multiplied by the involved psoriasis area score of the respective section, and weighted by the percentage of the person's affected skin for the respective section. The minimum possible PASI score is 0= no disease, the maximum score is 72= maximal disease.
