About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Parallel Group Study to Assess the Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of CNTO 1959, a Human Anti-IL 23 Monoclonal Antibody, Following Subcutaneous Administration in Subjects With Palmoplantar Pustulosis

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of CNTO 1959 following subcutaneous administration in participants with palmoplantar pustulosis.

Read the detailed description

This will be a double-blind (participants and study personnel will not know the identity of the treatments given), multicenter study that is placebo-controlled (a placebo is identical to a study treatment, but has no active ingredients). Participants will be randomly assigned to 1 of 2 treatment groups (CNTO 1959 or placebo). The total duration of participation will be approximately 30 weeks, including a screening period of about 6 weeks before dosing. Participant safety will be monitored throughout the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change from baseline in PPSI total score at Week 16.

    The Palmoplantar Pustulosis Severity Index (PPSI) assesses the severity of palmoplantar pustulosis lesions and their response to therapy. Scores can range from 0 to 12, with higher scores indicating more severity.

    Measured: Baseline to Week 16

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Change from baseline in PPSI total score over time

    The Palmoplantar Pustulosis Severity Index (PPSI) assesses the severity of palmoplantar pustulosis lesions and their response to therapy. Scores can range from 0 to 12, with higher scores indicating more severity.

    Measured: Baseline up to 24 weeks

  2. Change from baseline in PPPASI total score

    The Palmoplantar Pustulosis Area and Severity Index (PPPASI) assesses the severity of palmoplantar pustulosis lesions and their response to therapy. Scores can range from 0 to 72, with higher scores indicating more severity.

    Measured: Baseline up to 24 weeks

  3. Proportion of participants who achieve a PPPASI-50

    PPPASI-50 is at least 50% reduction in the PPPASI score.

    Measured: Up to 24 weeks

  4. Proportion of participants who achieve a PGA score of 1 or less

    The Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) is used to determine the participant's overall palmoplantar pustulosis lesions, at a given time point. Scores can range from 0 (clear) to 5 (very severe).

    Measured: Up to 24 weeks

  5. Proportion of participants who achieve a PPPASI-75

    PPPASI-75 is at least 75% reduction in the PPPASI score.

    Measured: Up to 24 weeks

  6. Change from baseline in PA (each score)

    The Physician's Assessment (PA) is used to determine the participant's pustule, vesicle, and nail lesions at a given time point. Scores can range from 0 (clear) to 5 (very severe).

    Measured: Baseline up to 24 weeks

  7. Change from baseline in Patient's VAS-PPP severity

    The Patient's Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) assessment of palmoplantar pustulosis severity will be recorded on a 10-cm VAS.

    Measured: Baseline up to 24 weeks

  8. Change from baseline in Physician's VAS-PAO activity

    Physician's Visual Analogue Scale Assessment of Pustulotic Arthro-Osteitis Activity will be recorded on a 10-cm VAS.

    Measured: Baseline up to 24 weeks

  9. Change from baseline in Patient's VAS-PAO activity and pain

    Patient's Visual Analogue Scale Assessment of Pustulotic Arthro-Osteitis Activity and Pain will be recorded on each 10-cm VAS.

    Measured: Baseline up to 24 weeks

  10. Change from baseline in Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI)

    The DLQI is a 10-item questionnaire that in addition to evaluating overall quality of life (QOL), can be used to assess 6 different aspects that may affect QOL: symptoms and feelings, daily activities, leisure, work or school performance, personal relationships, and treatment.

    Measured: Baseline up to 24 weeks

  11. Change form baseline in SF-36 score

    The 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) consists of 8 multi-item scales: limitations in physical functioning due to health problems, limitations in usual role activities due to physical health problems, bodily pain, general mental health (psychological distress and well-being), limitations in usual role activities due to personal or emotional problems, limitations in social functioning due to physical or mental health problems, vitality (energy and fatigue), and general health perception.

    Measured: Baseline up to 24 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing CNTO 1959 in people with Palmoplantaris Pustulosis, run by Janssen Pharmaceutical K.K. at 8 sites in Japan.

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 5 inclusion and 5 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 20 Nov 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in Japan. 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 in PPSI total score at Week 16. (time frame: Baseline 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 NCT01845987, 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Nov 2015.
