- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of Patients Who Achieved Psoriasis Area Severity Index Score (PASI) 75 at Week 12 Assesment at week 12 of treatment Number of patients who achieved Psoriasis Area Severity Index score (PASI) 75 at week 12. The PASI is a tool which provides a numeric scoring for patients overall psoriasis disease state, ranging from 0 to 72. It is a linear combination of percent of surface area of skin that is affected and the severity of erythema, infiltration, and desquamation over four body regions. Higher scores indicating higher severity, while a score of 0 indicates no disease.
PASI 75 is based on the percent reduction from baseline, generally summarized as a dichotomous outcome based on achieving over an 75% reduction.
No statistical comparisons were planned or carried out for Part 2 of the trial.Number of Patients Who Achieved a Static Physician's Global Assessment Score of 'Clear' or 'Almost Clear' (sPGA 0/1) at Week 12. Assesment at week 12 of treatment Number of patients who achieved a static Physician's Global Assessment score of 'clear' or 'almost clear' (sPGA 0/1) at Week 12. The sPGA used in this trial is a 5 point score ranging from 0 to 4, based on the physician's assessment of the average thickness, erythema, and scaling of all psoriatic lesions. The assessment is considered "static" which refers to the patients disease state at the time of the assessments, without comparison to any of the subject's previous disease states, whether at Baseline or at a previous visit. A lower score indicates less body coverage, with 0 being clear and 1 being almost clear.
No statistical comparisons were planned or carried out for Part 2 of the trial.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Overall Change From Baseline in Psoriasis Symptoms Evaluated Using the Total Score of the Psoriasis Symptoms Scale (PSS) at Week 12 Assesment at week 12 of treatment Overall change from baseline in psoriasis symptoms evaluated using the total score of the Psoriasis Symptoms Scale (PSS) at Week 12. The PSS is a four-item patient-reported outcome (PRO) instrument that assesses the severity of psoriasis symptoms in patients with moderate to severe psoriasis. The symptoms included are: pain, redness, itching and burning from psoriasis.
Current symptom severity is assessed for a 24 hour recall period using a 5-point verbal rating scale, the PSS score ranges from 0 (none) to 4 (very severe). The symptom scores are added to an unweighted total score (range: 0 to 16).
Presented 'Mean' values are actually 'Adjusted Mean'. No hypothesis testing was planned or carried out for Part II.Number of Patients Who Achieved a Dermatology Life Quality Index Score of 'no Effect on Patient's Life' (DLQI 0/1) at Week 12 Assesment at week 12 of treatment Number of patients who achieved a Dermatology Life Quality Index score of 'no effect on patient's life' (DLQI 0/1) at Week 12. The DLQI is a subject-administered, ten-question, quality of life questionnaire covering 6 domains including symptoms and feelings, daily activities, leisure, work and school, personal relationships and treatment. Item scores range from 0 (not relevant/not at all) to 3 (very much). Question 7 is a "yes"/ "no" question where "yes" is scored as 3. DLQI total score is calculated by summing the scores of each question resulting in a range of 0 to 30 where 0-1 = no effect on subject's life, 2-5 = small effect, 6-10 = moderate effect, 11-20 = very large effect, and 21-30 = extremely large effect on subject's life. The higher the score, the more the quality of life is impaired. A 4-point change from baseline is considered a clinically important difference. No hypothesis testing was planned or carried out for Part II.
Number of Patients Who Achieved Psoriasis Area Severity Index Score (PASI) 90 at Week 12 Assesment at week 12 of treatment Number of patients who achieved Psoriasis Area Severity Index score (PASI) 90 at week 12. The PASI is a tool which provides a numeric scoring for patients overall psoriasis disease state, ranging from 0 to 72. It is a linear combination of percent of surface area of skin that is affected and the severity of erythema, infiltration, and desquamation over four body regions. Higher scores indicating higher severity, while a score of 0 indicates no disease.
PASI 90 is based on the percent reduction from baseline, generally summarized as a dichotomous outcome based on achieving over an 90% reduction.
No statistical comparisons were planned or carried out for Part 2 of the trial. Statistical analysis could not be performed for arms with 0 participants reaching PASI 90.Number of Patients Who Achieved Psoriasis Area Severity Index Score (PASI) 100 at Week 12 Assesment at week 12 of treatment Number of patients who achieved Psoriasis Area Severity Index score (PASI) 100 at week 12. The PASI is a tool which provides a numeric scoring for patients overall psoriasis disease state, ranging from 0 to 72. It is a linear combination of percent of surface area of skin that is affected and the severity of erythema, infiltration, and desquamation over four body regions. Higher scores indicating higher severity, while a score of 0 indicates no disease.
PASI 100 is based on the percent reduction from baseline, generally summarized as a dichotomous outcome based on achieving over an 100% reduction.
No statistical comparisons were planned or carried out for Part 2 of the trial. Statistical analysis could not be performed for arms with 0 participants reaching PASI 100.Number of Patients Who Achieved Psoriasis Area Severity Index Score (PASI) 75 at Weeks 16, 20, and 24 Assesment at week 16, 20 and 24 of treatment Number of patients who achieved Psoriasis Area Severity Index score (PASI) 75 at weeks 16, 20 and 24. The PASI is a tool which provides a numeric scoring for patients overall psoriasis disease state, ranging from 0 to 72. It is a linear combination of percent of surface area of skin that is affected and the severity of erythema, infiltration, and desquamation over four body regions. Higher scores indicating higher severity, while a score of 0 indicates no disease.
PASI 75 is based on the percent reduction from baseline, generally summarized as a dichotomous outcome based on achieving over an 75% reduction.Number of Patients Who Achieved Psoriasis Area Severity Index Score (PASI) 50 at Week 12 Assesment at week 12 of treatment Number of patients who achieved Psoriasis Area Severity Index score (PASI) 50 at week 12. The PASI is a tool which provides a numeric scoring for patients overall psoriasis disease state, ranging from 0 to 72. It is a linear combination of percent of surface area of skin that is affected and the severity of erythema, infiltration, and desquamation over four body regions. Higher scores indicating higher severity, while a score of 0 indicates no disease.
PASI 50 is based on the percent reduction from baseline, generally summarized as a dichotomous outcome based on achieving over an 50% reduction.
No hypothesis testing was planned or carried out for Part II.Number of Patients Who Achieved a Static Physician's Global Assessment Score of 'Clear' (sPGA 0) at Week 12 Assesment at week 12 of treatment Number of patients who achieved a static Physician's Global Assessment score of 'clear' (sPGA 0) at Week 12. The sPGA used in this trial is a 5 point score ranging from 0 to 4, based on the physician's assessment of the average thickness, erythema, and scaling of all psoriatic lesions. The assessment is considered "static" which refers to the patients disease state at the time of the assessments, without comparison to any of the subject's previous disease states, whether at Baseline or at a previous visit. A lower score indicates less body coverage, with 0 being clear and 1 being almost clear.
