简要总结
Psoriasis is a non-communicable chronic immune-mediated disease. Psoriatic skin is characterized by excessive proliferation of skin cells and infiltration of immune cells. The cause of psoriasis is so far unknown.
Established therapeutics include topical, oral-systemic, biologic, narrow-band ultraviolet B (NB-UVB). A persistent antipsoriatic effect by the newest biologic therapies has been demonstrated after treatment discontinuation. However, the remittive hallmark of psoriasis suggests the existence of a molecular scar, a kind of disease memory, in clinically healed skin. It has been suggested that this disease memory can be attributed to the tissue-resident memory T (TRM) cell.
The main purpose of the study is to investigate whether (NB-UVB) treatment and concomitant Enstilar® treatment can change the amount of TRMs in the skin as well as change the expression in the microenvironment around these cells in the skin from psoriasis patients. In addition, the investigators will investigate whether the treatment can change the quantity and types of other psoriasis-related cells in the skin. In addition to this, the investigators will also examine the effect of treatment on patient-related parameters.

Women who have had surgical sterilization (hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, or bilateral tubal ligation) iii.

研究组 & 干预措施
Enstilar
Participants will need to have two separate clinically healed psoriasis plaques. At baseline (visit 2), one target lesion (plaque # 1) will be actively treated with once-daily cutaneous application of Enstilar® foam and one target lesion (plaque # 2) will be treated with placebo-vehicle. Participants will then simultaneously be treated three-weekly with full-body NB-UVB for 8 weeks (or a minimum of 20 sessions in total). After 4 weeks of Enstilar® and emollient, treatment application will be changed to twice-weekly until EOT (visit 5). First dose of IMP will be administered by trained personal. Subsequent doses will be administered by the participant. Study visits will occur at Screening, Baseline (Week 0), Weeks 8, 13, and 18. At baseline, week 8, week 13, and week 18 two skin punch biopsies will be acquired from each target lesion.
干预措施: Enstilar (Drug)
Placebo-vehicle
Placebo-vehicle will be given as explained for the arm description under Enstilar.
