A Study to Assess the Efficacy of Risankizumab Compared to FUMADERM® in Subjects With Moderate to Severe Plaque Psoriasis Who Are Naïve to and Candidates for Systemic Therapy
- Registration Number
- NCT03255382
- Lead Sponsor
- AbbVie
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous (SC) risankizumab and oral FUMADERM provided as study medication in participants with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis who are naïve to and candidates for systemic therapy.
- Detailed Description
The efficacy analysis was performed in the Intent to Treat (ITT) set which included all participants who were randomized. The safety analysis was performed in the safety set which included all participants who received at least one dose of study drug. No participants were excluded from the efficacy analysis. Three participants in the FUMADERM® group discontinued after randomization prior to receiving any study drug and were thus not included in the safety set.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Percentage of Participants Achieving 90% Improvement in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI90) at Week 24 Week 24 The Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) is a composite score based on the degree of effect on body surface area of psoriasis and the extension of erythema (reddening), induration (thickness), desquamation (scaling) of the lesions and area affected as observed on the day of examination. The severity of each sign was assessed using a 5-point scale, where 0=no symptoms, 1=slight, 2=moderate, 3=marked, 4=very marked. The PASI score ranges from 0 to 72, where 0 indicates no psoriasis and 72 indicates very severe psoriasis. PASI90 is defined as at least a 90% reduction in PASI score compared with the Baseline PASI score. The percent reduction in score is calculated as (PASI score at Baseline - score at follow-up visit) / PASI score at Baseline \* 100. Non-responder imputation (NRI) was used for missing data.
