About this study

Official title: A Phase 3, Multicenter, Randomized Study Comparing CNTO 1275 and Etanercept for the Treatment of Moderate to Severe Plaque Psoriasis

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of CNTO 1275 to etanercept in patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.

Read the detailed description

This is a multicenter, randomized (study medication assigned by chance), active-controlled, parallel, 3-arm study. Patients will be randomly (allocation to treatments available by chance) assigned in 3:5:5 ratio to receive one of three treatments groups. The three treatment groups are: Group 1 - CNTO 1275 45 mg dosing at weeks 0 and 4, Group 2 - CNTO 1275 90 mg dosing at weeks 0 and 4, Group 3 - Etanercept 50 mg two times per week through week 12. The total duration for each participant will be up to 64 weeks (approximately 16 months). The active-controlled portion of the study is from Week 0 to Week 12 during which the efficacy and safety of etanercept and 2 dose levels of CNTO 1275 will be evaluated. Treatment after Week 12 is dependent on Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) response at Week 12 and initial treatment assignment. Patients will receive 2 subcutaneous injections of CNTO 1275 (either 45 or 90 mg doses) or twice weekly injections of etanercept during the first twelve weeks of the study. Patients may receive two additional doses of CNTO 1275 (either 45 or 90 mg doses) up to week 44.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Participants Achieving a Greater Than or Equal to 75 Percentage Improvement From Baseline in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI 75) Score at Week 12

    Number of participants achieving greater than or equal to 75 percentage improvement from baseline in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) at Week 12. PASI is the widely used tool for the measurement of severity of psoriasis. This is a test of how bad a person's psoriasis is. The combination of redness, scaling, and thickness, as well as overall body involvement determine the PASI score. The scale ranges from 0 (best) -72 (worst). Baseline visit refers to Week 0.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 12

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of Participants With Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) of Cleared or Minimal at Week 12

    Number of participants achieving a physician global assessment (PGA) (0-5) of cleared or minimal at Week 12. The PGA is 7-point scale used in clinical trial of various diseases. In this the physician checks the state of the disease and gives them score from 0 (clear) to 5 (severe).

    Measured: Week 12

  2. Number of Participants Achieving a Greater Than or Equal to 90 Percentage Improvement From Baseline in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI 90) Score at Week 12

    Number of participants achieving greater than or equal to 90 percentage improvement from baseline in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) at Week 12. PASI is the widely used tool for the measurement of severity of psoriasis. This is a test of how bad a person's psoriasis is. The combination of redness, scaling, and thickness, as well as overall body involvement determine the PASI score. The scale ranges from 0 (best) -72 (worst).

    Measured: Baseline and Week 12

  3. Difference in Psoriasis Area Severity Index Between Week 12 and That Achieved 12 Weeks After Retreatment (Week R12)

    The difference between the PASI score at Week 12 and that achieved after 12 weeks of retreatment. The PASI is the widely used tool for the measurement of severity of psoriasis. This is a test of how bad a person's psoriasis is. The combination of redness, scaling, and thickness, as well as overall body involvement determine the PASI score. The scale ranges from 0 (best) -72 (worst).

    Measured: Up to Week 52. Retreatment may occur anytime between Week 16 and Week 40 depending on time of losing PGA response. Hence end of 12 weeks of retreatment would be between Week 28 and Week 52, inclusive.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing CNTO 1275 45 mg, CNTO 1275 90 mg and Etanercept 50 mg in people with Psoriasis, run by Centocor, Inc..

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Nov 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 21 Nov 2012). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Participants Achieving a Greater Than or Equal to 75 Percentage Improvement From Baseline in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI 75) Score at Week 12 (time frame: Baseline and Week 12). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00454584, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Nov 2012.
