  • Males and females 18 years or older with a clinical diagnosis of mild-to-moderate plaque-type psoriasis for ≥12 months prior to screening
  • Female participants postmenopausal >1 year or surgically sterile
  • Two representative and similar target lesions for the condition, each of 15-25 centimeters squared (cm^2), up to 50 cm^2 in surface area
  • Target lesion severity score of 4-8 on a scale of 0 to 12, where, in the opinion of the Investigator, 0 equals no evidence of disease and 12 equals severe induration, erythema, scaling, and pruritus
  • Prescription medications, if applicable, for chronic conditions allowed but must be on a stable regimen prior to and during the study; this is also applicable for dietary supplements and over-the-counter (OTC) drugs

  • Evidence of significant hepatic, gastrointestinal, renal, respiratory, endocrine, hematological, neurological, psychiatric, musculoskeletal, rheumatologic, or cardiovascular system abnormalities
  • Evidence of any clinically significant deviation from normal with respect to medical history, physical examination, vital signs, 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), or clinical laboratory determinations. If any participant has an abnormal clinical laboratory test finding that meets specified criteria, that participant will be re-tested by repeated blood draw and clinical laboratory assessment. If the abnormal test finding is confirmed, the participant will be excluded from the study.

E6201 0.005% BIDExperimentalParticipants applied E6201 0.005% cream to a pre-identified marker lesion twice a day (BID) for 8 weeks. Participants applied matching placebo cream to another pre-identified marker lesion at the same treatment regimen.
Receives: Drug: E6201 0.005%; Drug: Placebo
E6201 0.01% BIDExperimentalParticipants applied E6201 0.01% cream to a pre-identified marker lesion BID for 8 weeks. Participants applied matching placebo cream to another pre-identified marker lesion at the same treatment regimen.
Receives: Drug: E6201 0.01%; Drug: Placebo
E6201 0.03% BIDExperimentalParticipants applied E6201 0.03% cream to a pre-identified marker lesion BID for 8 weeks. Participants applied matching placebo cream to another pre-identified marker lesion at the same treatment regimen.
Receives: Drug: E6201 0.03%; Drug: Placebo
E6201 0.03% QDExperimentalParticipants applied E6201 0.03% cream to a pre-identified marker lesion once a day (QD) for 8 weeks. Participants applied matching placebo cream to another pre-identified marker lesion at the same treatment regimen.
Receives: Drug: E6201 0.03%; Drug: Placebo

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing E6201 0.005%, E6201 0.01% and E6201 0.03% in people with Chronic Plaque Psoriasis, run by Eisai Inc. at 12 sites in United States.

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 6 inclusion and 4 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 6 Feb 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Total Symptom Severity (TSS) at week 8. (time frame: 8 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 6 Feb 2017.
