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

  1. Subjects with adverse events

    Measured: From randomization through Day 57 (12 timepoints)

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Target lesion assessment

    Target lesion evaluated for erythema, induration, and scaling.

    Measured: From randomization to Day 57 (4 timepoints)

  2. Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) score

    Measured: From randomization to Day 57 (4 timepoints)

  4. Psoriasis Disability Index (PDI)

    Measured: From randomization to Day 57 (4 timepoints)

  5. Skin biomarker assessments

    Skin biopsy from psoriatic lesion collected for analysis of gene expression via qPCR and immune cell infiltration via histology and immunohistochemistry analysis.

    Measured: From randomaization to Day 32 (2 timepoints)

  6. Blood biomarker assessments

    Blood collected for analysis of gene and protein expression as well as immunophenotyping of T cell subsets.

    Measured: From randomizatoin to Day 57 (5 timepoints)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing dalazatide in people with Plaque Psoriasis, run by Kineta Inc. at 1 site in Canada.

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 7 inclusion and 22 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 6 May 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Canada. 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. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Subjects with adverse events (time frame: From randomization through Day 57 (12 timepoints)). 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 May 2015; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
