About this study
Official title: A Phase 3 Open-label Study to Assess the Efficacy, Safety, and Pharmacokinetics of Subcutaneously Administered Ustekinumab in the Treatment of Moderate to Severe Chronic Plaque Psoriasis in Pediatric Subjects Greater Than or Equal to 6 to Less Than 12 Years of Age
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ustekinumab in pediatric participants aged greater than or equal to (>=) 6 through less than (<) 12 years with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis
Read the detailed description
This is an open label (identity of study drug will be known to participant and study staff) and multicenter (when more than one hospital or medical school team work on a medical research study) study. The participant population will be comprised of boys and girls who have had a diagnosis of plaque psoriasis for at least 6 months prior to first study drug administration and who have moderate to severe disease defined by Psoriasis Area and Severity Index score (PASI) >=12, Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) >=3, and Body Surface Area (BSA) >=10 percent (%). The study consists of Screening Phase (up to 10 weeks before administration of the study drug), Treatment Period (Week 0 up to Week 52) and Safety follow up (Week 56). Participants will be primarily evaluated for efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety. Following completion of the Week 52 visit, participants who have had a beneficial response from ustekinumab treatment as determined by the investigator, and who have not yet reached the age of 12 years or older in countries where marketing authorization for ustekinumab has been granted for the treatment of psoriasis in adolescent participants (12-17 years), and are willing to continue ustekinumab treatment, may enter the long-term extension period (from Week 56 through Week 264) of the study.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Percentage of Participants With Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) Score of Cleared (0) or Minimal (1) at Week 12
The PGA is used to determine the participant's psoriasis at a given time point. Overall lesions are graded for induration, erythema, and scaling. The participant's psoriasis is assessed as cleared (0), minimal (1), mild (2), moderate (3), marked (4), or severe (5). Higher scores indicate worse disease. Treatment Failure (TF) criteria- discontinued study agent due to lack of efficacy or adverse event of psoriasis or who started protocol-prohibited medication/therapy.
Measured: Week 12
Secondary outcomes (12)
Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) 75 Response at Week 12
PASI is a system used for assessing and grading the severity of psoriatic lesions and their response to therapy. In the PASI system, the body is divided into 4 regions: the head, trunk, upper extremities, and lower extremities. Each of these areas is assessed separately for the percentage of the area involved, which translates to a numeric score that ranges from 0 (indicates no involvement) to 6 (90%-100% involvement), and for erythema, induration, and scaling, which are each rated on a scale of 0 to 4 that is none to maximum severity. The PASI produces a numeric score that can range from 0 (no psoriasis) to 72. A higher score indicates more severe disease. Participants with >=75% improvement in PASI from baseline were considered PASI 75 responders. TF criteria- discontinued study agent due to lack of efficacy or adverse event of psoriasis or who started protocol-prohibited medication/therapy.
Measured: Week 12
Change From Baseline in Children Dermatology Life Quality Index (CDLQI) Score at Week 12
CDLQI was used to assess the impact of psoriasis on subject health-related quality of life. The CDLQI has 10 items assessing health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in patients with skin disease each measured on a scale from 0 (Not at all) to 3 (Very much). The total score ranges from 0 to 30, with lower scores indicating better quality of life. The higher the score, the greater the impairment in quality of life (QoL). TF criteria- discontinued study agent due to lack of efficacy or adverse event of psoriasis or who started protocol-prohibited medication/therapy.
Measured: Baseline and Week 12
Percentage of Participants Who Achieved PASI 90 Response at Week 12
PASI is a system used for assessing and grading the severity of psoriatic lesions and their response to therapy. In the PASI system, the body is divided into 4 regions: the head, trunk, upper extremities, and lower extremities. Each of these areas is assessed separately for the percentage of the area involved, which translates to a numeric score that ranges from 0 (indicates no involvement) to 6 (90%-100% involvement), and for erythema, induration, and scaling, which are each rated on a scale of 0 to 4 that is none to maximum severity. The PASI produces a numeric score that can range from 0 (no psoriasis) to 72 (disease severity). A higher score indicates more severe disease. Participants with >=90% improvement in PASI from baseline were considered PASI 90 responders. TF criteria- discontinued study agent due to lack of efficacy or adverse event of psoriasis or who started protocol-prohibited medication/therapy.
Measured: Week 12
Percentage of Participants With a PGA Score of Cleared (0), Cleared (0) or Minimal (1), Mild (2) at Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 28, 40, and 52
The PGA is used to determine the participant's psoriasis at a given time point. Overall lesions are graded for induration, erythema, and scaling. The participant's psoriasis is assessed as cleared (0), minimal (1), mild (2), moderate (3), marked (4), or severe (5). Higher scores indicate worse disease. TF criteria- discontinued study agent due to lack of efficacy or adverse event of psoriasis or who started protocol-prohibited medication/therapy.
Measured: Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 28, 40, and 52
Percentage of Participants Who Achieved a PASI 50, PASI 75, PASI 90 and PASI 100 Response at Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 28, 40, and 52
The PASI is a system used for assessing and grading the severity of psoriatic lesions and their response to therapy. In the PASI system, the body is divided into 4 regions: the head, trunk, upper extremities, and lower extremities. Each of these areas is assessed separately for the percentage of the area involved, which translates to a numeric score that ranges from 0 (indicates no involvement) to 6 (90 percentage (%)-100% involvement), and for erythema, induration and scaling, which are each rated on a scale of 0 to 4 that is none to maximum severity. The PASI produces a numeric score that could range from 0 (no psoriasis) to 72 (disease severity). PASI 50, 75, 90, and 100 responders were defined as >=50%, >=75%, >=90%, and 100% improvement in PASI from Baseline respectively. TF criteria- discontinued study agent due to lack of efficacy or adverse event of psoriasis or who started protocol-prohibited medication/therapy.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ustekinumab in pediatric participants aged greater than or equal to (>=) 6 through less than (<) 12 years with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis
Detailed description
This is an open label (identity of study drug will be known to participant and study staff) and multicenter (when more than one hospital or medical school team work on a medical research study) study. The participant population will be comprised of boys and girls who have had a diagnosis of plaque psoriasis for at least 6 months prior to first study drug administration and who have moderate to severe disease defined by Psoriasis Area and Severity Index score (PASI) >=12, Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) >=3, and Body Surface Area (BSA) >=10 percent (%). The study consists of Screening Phase (up to 10 weeks before administration of the study drug), Treatment Period (Week 0 up to Week 52) and Safety follow up (Week 56). Participants will be primarily evaluated for efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety. Following completion of the Week 52 visit, participants who have had a beneficial response from ustekinumab treatment as determined by the investigator, and who have not yet reached the age of 12 years or older in countries where marketing authorization for ustekinumab has been granted for the treatment of psoriasis in adolescent participants (12-17 years), and are willing to continue ustekinumab treatment, may enter the long-term extension period (from Week 56 through Week 264) of the study.

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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 28 Aug 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?
Percentage of Participants With Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) Score of Cleared (0) or Minimal (1) at Week 12 (time frame: Week 12). 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 NCT02698475, 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?
