About this study

This study is health economic analysis of medicinal treatment options for moderate-to-severe psoriasis vulgaris from the societal perspective. Efficacy data and other clinical outcomes will be derived from an up-to-date meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials (RCTs) for moderate-to-severe psoriasis. Direct and indirect costs will be extracted from various different sources, including summary of product characteristics (SPCs) and the German S3 guideline on psoriasis care, health care utilization data and official statistics.

The study aims to investigate the comparative cost-effectiveness of biologic and conventional systemic treatments currently (as of June 1st, 2012) approved for moderate-to-severe plaque-type psoriasis in Germany. Effectiveness will be measured by means of the pooled (Psoriasis Area and Severity Index) PASI-75 response rates as reported in RCTs Direct cost as well as indirect cost will be considered.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Aug 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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?

Cost per quality-adjusted life year (QALY) gained through treatment with each individual agent compared to supportive care as well as compared to placebo (time frame: 1 year). 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?
