About this study

Official title: A Phase 2a, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-Controlled, Sequential Group, Multiple-Dose Escalation Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of ASP015K in Subjects With Moderate to Severe Plaque Psoriasis

The purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy and safety of multiple, escalating doses of ASP015K when compared to placebo in subjects with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.

Read the detailed description

Following completion of at least 1 week of study drug for all subjects in group 1, the Sponsor will review the safety information of these subjects prior to enrolling off-treatment subjects into the next dose group. Dose escalation will continue in this manner (unless stopping criteria are met) until all groups have completed the study.

    Measured: 6 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change from baseline to end of treatment in Physicians Static Global Assessment (PSGA)

    Measured: 6 weeks

  2. Change from baseline to end of treatment in percent body surface area (BSA)

    Measured: 6 weeks

  3. Success of the treatment of psoriasis as measured by a Physician's Static Global Assessment (PSGA) of Almost Clear or Clear

    Measured: 6 weeks

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 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. 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?

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?

Change from baseline to the end of treatment in Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) score (time frame: 6 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT01096862, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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?
