About this study

Official title: A Double-Blind, Randomized Bilateral Study of the Safety and Efficacy of AN2728 Ointment, 5%, Versus Ointment Vehicle in the Treatment of Patients With Plaque Type Psoriasis

The purpose of the study is to determine the safety and efficacy of AN2728 Ointment, 5%, compared to Ointment Vehicle in the treatment of plaque type psoriasis.

Read the detailed description

This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind bilateral design. Patients will apply the test articles, AN2728 Ointment, 5%, and Ointment Vehicle twice daily. The assigned study medication will be applied to two comparable treatment targeted plaques identified at baseline. One test article will be applied to one plaque and the other test article to an anatomically distinct plaque. All efficacy evaluations will be measured from only the two plaques identified at the baseline visit.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Greater Decrease in Overall Target Plaque Severity Score (OTPSS) at Day 28

    OTPSS is a scale to assess plaque severity. Each target plaque was scored on a severity rating scale ranging from 0 (no plaque) to 8 (very severe plaque), where higher score indicated more severity of a plaque. In this outcome measure, percentage of participants with reduced OTPSS at Day 28 were reported and comparison of ointment and vehicle treated plaque was given as 'Ointment treated plaque versus (vs.) vehicle treated plaque' and 'Vehicle treated plaque vs. ointment treated plaque'.

    Measured: Day 28

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Change From Baseline in Overall Target Plaque Severity Score (OTPSS) at Day 7,14, 21, 28 and 35

    OTPSS is a scale to assess plaque severity. Each target plaque was scored on a severity scale ranging from 0 (no plaque) to 8 (very severe plaque), where higher score indicated more severity of a plaque.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1), Day 7,14, 21, 28, 35

  2. Change From Baseline in Erythema at Day 7,14, 21, 28 and 35

    Erythema is used to assess plaque severity. Investigator rated the clinical appearance of erythema on a severity scale, ranging from 0 (no color on plaque, no erythema) to 8 (extreme red color on plaque, severe erythema), where higher score indicated more severe condition.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1), Day 7,14, 21, 28, 35

  3. Change From Baseline in Scaling at Day 7,14, 21, 28 and 35

    Scaling is a scale to assess plaque severity. Investigator rated the clinical appearance of scaling on a severity scale, ranging from 0 (no scaling on plaque) to 8 (very thick scales on plaque), where higher score indicated more severe condition.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1), Day 7,14, 21, 28, 35

  4. Change From Baseline in Plaque Elevation at Day 7,14, 21, 28 and 35

    Plaque elevation is a scale to assess plaque severity. Investigator rated presence of plaque elevation on a severity scale ranging, from 0 (no plaque elevation) to 8 (very marked plaque elevation), where higher score indicated more severe condition.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1), Day 7,14, 21, 28, 35

  5. Percentage of Participants With Greater Decrease in Overall Target Plaque Severity Score (OTPSS) at Day 7,14, 21 and 35

    OTPSS is a scale to assess plaque severity. Each target plaque was scored on a severity rating scale ranging from 0 (no plaque) to 8 (very severe plaque), where higher score indicated more severity of a plaque. In this outcome measure, percentage of participants with reduced OTPSS at Day 7, 14, 21 and 35 were reported and comparison of ointment and vehicle treated plaque was given as 'Ointment treated plaque vs. vehicle treated plaque' and 'Vehicle treated plaque vs. ointment treated plaque'.

    Measured: Day 7,14, 21, 35

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing AN2728 in people with Psoriasis, run by Pfizer at 1 site in Mexico.

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 9 inclusion and 17 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 Mar 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Mexico. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 6 Mar 2017). 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?

Percentage of Participants With Greater Decrease in Overall Target Plaque Severity Score (OTPSS) at Day 28 (time frame: Day 28). 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 Mar 2017.
