Study Overview
Brief Summary
The primary efficacy objective in Period A is to demonstrate superiority of risankizumab to deucravacitinib in achieving a) PASI 90 (defined as ≥ 90% reduction from Baseline in PASI) and b) sPGA 0 or 1 with at least 2-grade improvement from Baseline after 16 weeks of treatment with risankizumab when compared to deucravacitinib.
The primary efficacy objective in Period B is to demonstrate superiority of switching to risankizumab to continuing deucravacitinib in achieving PASI 90 at Week 52 among subjects who fail to achieve PASI 90 at 16 weeks of deucravacitinib treatment.
