Overview
Brief Summary
The aim of the study is to demonstrate equivalent efficacy and similarity in the safety profile of GP2017 and Humira® in patients with moderate to severe chronic plaque-type psoriasis.
Detailed Description
The aim of this study (Treatment Period 1) was to demonstrate equivalent efficacy, primarily based on the PASI75 response rate at Week 16, and similar safety of the proposed biosimilar GP2017 and Humira in patients with moderate to severe chronic plaque-type psoriasis at the end of Treatment Period 1, after 17 weeks of study treatment. The subsequent Treatment Period 2 (Week 17 to Week 35) and the Extension Period (Week 35 to Week 51) were performed to evaluate long-term effects, including immunogenicity (i.e. ADAs), and the effects of repeated switching between GP2017 and Humira.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
PASI 75 Response Rate at Week 16 - GP2017 Adalimumab vs Humira ® Adalimumab
Time Frame: At Week 16 only
The primary variable was the PASI75 response rate at Week 16, defined as the proportion of patients achieving a reduction of 75% or more of the PASI score at Week 16 compared with baseline.
Secondary Outcomes
- Mean Percent Change From Baseline in PASI Score up to Week 16 (MMRM)(Baseline to Week 16)
- PASI 50, PASI 75, PASI 90 and PASI 100 Response Rates(At Week 17 only)
- Mean ATE of Percent Change From Baseline in PASI Score up to Week 16 (ANCOVA)(Baseline to Week 16)
- DLQI(At Week 51 only)
- PASI 50, PASI75, PASI 90 and PASI100 Response Rates(At Week 51 only)
- ADA Formation Against GP2017 Adalimumab and Humira® Adalimumab From Randomization Until Week 51(At Week 51 only)
- IGA Response Rate(At Week 51 only)
- ADA Formation Against GP2017 Adalimumab and Humira® Adalimumab From Randomization Until Week 17(At Week 17 only)
