About this study

Official title: A Multicenter Head-to-head Comparison of Ixekizumab Vs. Secukizumab in Over 70-year-old Patients with Moderate-to-severe Plaque Psoriasis

Currently, the main systemic drug therapies in China include methotrexate (MTX), cyclosporine A, retinoids, and biologics. In recent years, monoclonal antibody biologics targeting cellular inflammatory factors have been used in the treatment of severe psoriasis, which is poorly treated with conventional systemic medications, severely affects the quality of life, and is accompanied by significant arthritic symptoms, including tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) antagonists (etanercept, infliximab, adalimumab); IL-12/23 antagonists (ursodiol, ibuprofen); and IL-12/23 antagonists (ubuntu, ubiquinone). IL-12/23 antagonists (ustekinumab) and IL-17A antagonists (skutecimab). Among them, ezekizumab and stuccizumab are more widely used at present. However, the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ezekizumab and stuclizumab in the treatment of plaque psoriasis in elderly patients over 70 years of age are not known.

Primary objective:

Read more

To evaluate the efficacy of ezekizumab versus secukizumab in patients over 70 years of age with plaque psoriasis.

Secondary objectives:

  1. To assess the safety of ezekizumab versus secukizumab in the treatment of patients over 70 years of age with plaque psoriasis;
  2. To evaluate the tolerability of ezekizumab versus secukizumab in patients over 70 years of age with plaque psoriasis

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Proportion of subjects who improved their PASI score by 90% (PASI 90) or more from baseline or achieved an sPGA score of 0 or 1 at Week 16. (time frame: Week 16). 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 Feb 2025.
