干预措施: Placebo cream (Other)
结局指标
主要结局
Change from baseline in EGFR density in epidermis of psoriasis lesion
时间窗: Day 66
Punch biopsies of the treated psoriasis lesion will be performed before study treatment start (day 7) and at the end of the treatment, which is on day 66. EGFR immunohistochemistry will be performed with a murine antibody directed against the extracellular domain of human EGFR. A pathologist blinded to the patient's characteristics and treatment modalities assesses the immunohistochemistry staining in three epidermal layers. A score ranging form 0 (no staining) to 3 (intense staining) is applied, resulting in a total score ranging form 0 (3x0) to 9 (3x3).
次要结局
- Change to baseline in target lesion severity score (PASI)(Day 80)
- Change to baseline in histological feature: thickness of the epidermis(Day 66)
- Number of participants with adverse events(Day 80)
- Change to baseline in the histological feature: acanthosis(Day 66)
- Change to baseline in histological feature: epidermal/dermal lymphocytic infiltrates(Day 66)
