- Conditions
- Psoriasis
- Interventions
- Drug: 2=Clobetasol propionate foamDrug: 1=Etanercept
- Registration Number
- NCT01235442
- Lead Sponsor
- Amgen
- Brief Summary
The primary hypothesis of this trial is that the addition of short courses of clobetasol propionate foam to etanercept monotherapy in subjects with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis will yield greater efficacy compared with etanercept monotherapy, as measured by PASI 75 at Week 12.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method PASI 75 at Week 12 Week 12 The percentage of participants with the Psoriasis Area and Severity Indexs (PASI) 75 responses at week 12. PASI is an assessment of psoriasis based on severity of erythema, infiltration, and desquamation as well as area of involvement. The PASI score ranges from 0 to 72. The higher score represents the worse symptom severity. A response was considered a 75% reduction in the PASI score from Baseline.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method sPGA (0,1) at Week 12 Week 12 The percentage of participants achieving sPGA 0 or 1 at week 12. Static physician global assessment of psoriasis (sPGA) is a physician's global assessment of the participant's psoriasis based on severity of induration, scaling, and erythema. The sPGA of psoriasis comprises a 6-point scale ranging from 0 (clear) to 5 with increasing severity.
sPGA (0,1) at Week 24 Week 24 The percentage of participants achieving sPGA 0 or 1 at week 24. Static physician global assessment of psoriasis (sPGA) is a physician's global assessment of the participant's psoriasis based on severity of induration, scaling, and erythema. The sPGA of psoriasis comprises a 6-point scale ranging from 0 (clear) to 5 with increasing severity.
Patient Satisfaction at Week 12 Week 12 Patient assessment of treatment satisfaction status at week 12. It is a measure of a participant's level of satisfaction with the medication's control of psoriasis, ranging from "very satisfied" to "very dissatisfied."
PASI 90 at Week 12 Week 12 The percentage of participants with the Psoriasis Area and Severity Indexs (PASI) 90 responses at week 12. PASI is an assessment of psoriasis based on severity of erythema, infiltration, and desquamation as well as area of involvement. The PASI score ranges from 0 to 72. The higher score represents the worse symptom severity. A response was considered a 90% reduction in the PASI score from Baseline.
Percent PASI Improvement From Baseline at Week 12 Week 12 The percentage of the improvement in PASI score at week 12 from baseline. PASI is an assessment of psoriasis based on severity of erythema, infiltration, and desquamation as well as area of involvement. The PASI score ranges from 0 to 72. The higher score represents the worse symptom severity.
PASI 75 at Week 24 Week 24 The percentage of participants with the Psoriasis Area and Severity Indexs (PASI) 75 responses at week 24. PASI is an assessment of psoriasis based on severity of erythema, infiltration, and desquamation as well as area of involvement. The PASI score ranges from 0 to 72. The higher score represents the worse symptom severity. A response was considered a 75% reduction in the PASI score from Baseline.
