About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Observational, Noninterventional, Narrative Study to Evaluate Patient-Reported Experiences of Living With Moderate-to-Severe Plaque Psoriasis

The purpose of the study is to develop a database containing patient-reported information that may be used to understand and to increase awareness of the impact that moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis can have on both daily life and life in general from a patient's perspective. The database will include self-reported patient narratives on the topic of the experience of having moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis and will include information on treatments received, as well as de-identified clinical photographs taken over the course of the disease.

Read the detailed description

This study is planned with the primary objective of developing a database containing patient-reported information that may be used to understand and increase awareness of the impact that moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis can have on both daily life and life in general from a patient's perspective. This is a multicenter observational (no drug given to the patient) patient narrative study. The duration of study is 16 weeks and includes adult patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis who are candidates for phototherapy or systemic therapy. The study investigators are dermatologists who treat patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. The study includes a screening visit 2 weeks before Week 0 (baseline). Patients will be evaluated at screening for current or peak historical physician's global assessment (PGA) response (range 0-5). Patients will provide narratives at the Week 0 (baseline) visit and may add additional information at an interval visit or at the end of the study on Week 16. Photography will be performed at Week 0 and at the end of study at Week 16. Additional photographs will be taken if there is any change in disease status (e.g., disease improvement or worsening, change in treatment) occurring prior to the end of the study. Between Week 0 and Week 16, patients may return to the study site for 1 interval visit at the first clinically significant change in disease status, if applicable. The Week 16 final assessment may be conducted as a telephone follow-up for patients who have had an interval visit between Week 0 and Week 16. If the patient did not return to the study site for an interval visit, the patient will return to the study site for a visit at Week 16. All assessments specified for the interval visit will be performed at Week 16. All patients will have the following data collected: PGA score, area of body involved, body surface area percent (BSA%, calculates percent of body surface area affected with psoriasis), Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) de-identified photographs, adverse events, and patient narratives. The information will be collected de-identified. Study materials (e.g., demographic and disease characteristic forms, narratives, and photographs) will be coded using a unique patient identification (ID) number. Only de-identified information will be available to the Sponsor and related study personnel.

What is being measured

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

  1. To develop a database for patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis containing patient-reported information

    The database will contain patient-reported information that may be used to understand and increase awareness of the impact that moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis can have on both daily life and life in general from a patient's perspective. The database will include self-reported patient narratives on the topic of the experience of having moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis, information on treatments received, and de-identified clinical photographs taken over the course of the disease.

    Measured: Week 0 to Week 16

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?

To develop a database for patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis containing patient-reported information (time frame: Week 0 to Week 16). 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 NCT01555606, 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?
