研究概览

简要总结

To determine if bexarotene gel with NBUVB phototherapy is more effective than placebo plus NBUVB for moderate to severe plaque-type psoriasis.

详细描述

Subjects will be applying active gel or placebo to target lesions to each side of the body in a blinded manner. They will start at three times a week and increase to daily or even twice a day regimen if tolerated. After 2 weeks of application, NBUVB will be added to treatment regimen (whole body, three times a week). Total study time is 10 weeks.
