About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Novel Drug-combinations for Relief of Psoriasis (ENDURE)

ENDURE is a prospective, observational study aimed to document clinical response and side effects associated with compounded psoriasis medications when prescribed as routine care. As a secondary initiative, this study will assess methotrexate systemic absorption and toxicity in patients prescribed a methotrexate-containing compounded formulation.

Read the detailed description

In this prospective, observational study, change in psoriasis plaque appearance, per the Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) tool, will be evaluated after using a topical psoriasis cream containing at least 3 of the following: corticosteroid, methotrexate, vitamin D3 or synthetic analog, retinoid acid, or urea, or a topical shampoo or spray containing a corticosteroid and vitamin D3 or synthetic analog. The change in quality of life will be assessed during all visits using the Skindex-16 assessment tool. In patients receiving a methotrexate-containing formulation, a sub-study will be available as an option, where laboratory values (methotrexate levels, complete blood count, liver function tests, etc.) will be obtained to confirm that methotrexate absorption is negligible.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) Score

    To evaluate the change in psoriasis plaque resolution, the PASI tool will be utilized. The psoriasis plaques will be evaluated by the overseeing study investigator as part of the normal evaluation of the area.

    Measured: 12 Week Study [Baseline, 2, 4, 8, and 12 week evaluation]

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Quality of Life

    To assess change in quality of life, the Skindex-16 assessment tool will be used at all study visits.

    Measured: 12 Weeks [Baseline, 2, 4, 8, and 12 week evaluation]

  2. Methotrexate absorption

    To assess changes in serum methotrexate concentration, methotrexate serum levels and other associated laboratory values (complete blood count, serum creatinine, alanine transaminase, aspartate aminotransferase, C-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, glucose, and insulin levels) will be monitored in patients that agree to participate in the sub-study who are prescribed a methotrexate-containing compounded psoriasis formulation (maximum 25 patients). This outcome measure is a composite.

    Measured: 12 Weeks [Baseline, 4, 12 week evaluation]
