Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ustekinumab (CNTO 1275) compared with placebo in participants with moderate to severe plaque type psoriasis.

Detailed description

This is a multicenter (involving more than 1 study center), randomized (study medication assigned by chance), double-blind (neither the invesitigator nor the participant knows the identity of the study medication), placebo- controlled (1 of the study medications is inactive), parallel-group comparative study (different groups of participants will receive different treatments at the same time). The total duration of the study will be 78 weeks which will be comprised of: a screening period (6 weeks); an efficacy assessment period (64 weeks \[with a total of 7 treatments at Weeks 0, 4, 12, 16, 28, 40, and 52\]) and a follow-up assessment period (8 weeks). The efficacy assessment period will further include: a placebo-controlled treatment period (Weeks 0-12) and an active drug treatment period (Weeks 12-64). During the placebo-controlled treatment period, participants will receive ustekinumab (45 mg or 90 mg) subcutaneously (SC-into the muscles) or placebo SC. During the active drug treatment period, participants will continue treatment with 45 mg or 90 mg SC as assigned during the placebo-controlled treatment period; however, participants in the placebo group will be divided into 2 groups and will receive ustekinumab 45 mg (Placebo A) or 90 mg (Placebo B) SC. Efficacy will be evaluated primarily by analysis of psoriasis area and severity index (PASI) score. Participant safety will also be monitored.

PASI is a widely used tool for the measurement of severity of psoriasis. The combination of redness, scaling, and thickness, as well as overall body involvement determine the PASI score. The scale ranges from 0 (best) to 72 (worst). Baseline visit refers to Week 0.

Change From Baseline in Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) Score at Week 28, 40, 52 and 64Week 28, 40, 52 and 64The DLQI is a self-administered 10-item questionnaire that is used to assess 6 different aspects of quality of life: symptoms and feelings, daily activities, leisure, work or school performance, personal relationships, and treatment. Scores range from 0 (no impairment in quality of life) to 30 (most impairment in quality of life).
Change From Baseline in 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) at Week 12, 28, 40, 52 and 64Week 12, 28, 40, 52 and 64The SF-36 is a validated instrument measuring health-related quality of life across multiple disease states. It has 36 questions with 8 subscale scores and 2 summary scores: (1) physical component summary (PCS)=physical functioning, role-physical, bodily pain, and general health; (2) mental component summary (MCS)=vitality, social functioning, role-emotional, and mental health. There is no total overall score; scoring is done for both sub scores and summary scores. For sub scores and summary scores: 0=worst score and 100=best score.
Change From Baseline in Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) Score at Week 12Week 12The DLQI is a self-administered 10-item questionnaire that is used to assess 6 different aspects of quality of life: symptoms and feelings, daily activities, leisure, work or school performance, personal relationships, and treatment. Scores range from 0 (no impairment in quality of life) to 30 (most impairment in quality of life).
Treatment Response Based on Nail Psoriasis Severity Index (NAPSI) ScoreWeek 12, 28, 40,52 and 64The NAPSI score is used to evaluate the severity of nail bed psoriasis and nail matrix psoriasis. The nail is divided with into quadrants and given a score for nail bed psoriasis (0-4) and nail matrix psoriasis (0-4) depending on the presence of any of the features of nail psoriasis in that quadrant. Each nail is evaluated, and the sum of all the nails is the total NAPSI score. The sum of the scores from all nails ranges from 0 (no psoriasis) to 80 (psoriasis present in all 4 quadrants of all 10 nails).
Change From Baseline in the Number of Nails With Psoriasis Involvement at Week 12, 28, 40, 52 and 64Week 12, 28, 40, 52 and 64The number of nails with psoriasis involvement was assessed by a dermatologist.
Change From Baseline in Joint Symptoms Expressed on a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) at Week 12, 28, 40, 52 and 64Week 12, 28, 40, 52 and 64Each participant will assess his/her pain associated with joint symptoms on each assessment day using a 100 mm VAS ranging from 0 mm (no pain) to 100 mm (the worst pain imaginable).
Percentage of Participants With Cleared (0), Cleared or Minimal (0 or 1) and Mild (Less Than or Equal to 2) Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) Score at Week 12Week 12Percentage of participants with PGA score of cleared (0), cleared or minimal (0 or 1) and mild (less than or equal to 2) was reported. The PGA score is a numeric scale which is completed by the physician and is designed to evaluate the physician's overall assessment of the participant's psoriasis. Overall lesions will be graded for induration (I), erythema (E), and scaling (S) as: 0=cleared, 1=minimal, 2=mild, 3=moderate, 4=marked, and 5=severe. The sum of the 3 scores (I + E + S) will be divided by 3 to obtain a final PGA score ranging from 0 \[best\] to 5 \[worst\].

The sum of the 3 scores (I + E + S) will be divided by 3 to obtain a final PGA score ranging from 0 \[best\] to 5 \[worst\].
Change From Baseline in Psoriasis Disability Index (PDI) Score at Week 12, 28, 40, 52 and 64Week 12, 28, 40, 52 and 64The PDI questionnaire consists of 15 questions relating to the impact of psoriasis in terms of daily activities, work or school, personal relationships, leisure, and treatment. Each question is scored on a scale of 0 (no impact) to 3 (greatest impact). The PDI is calculated by summing the scores of the questions resulting in a maximum score of 45 (greatest impact) and a minimum score of 0 (no impact).

Percentage of Participants With Cleared (0), Cleared or Minimal (0 or 1) and Mild (Less Than or Equal to 2) Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) Score at Week 12

Percentage of participants with PGA score of cleared (0), cleared or minimal (0 or 1) and mild (less than or equal to 2) was reported. The PGA score is a numeric scale which is completed by the physician and is designed to evaluate the physician's overall assessment of the participant's psoriasis. Overall lesions will be graded for induration (I), erythema (E), and scaling (S) as: 0=cleared, 1=minimal, 2=mild, 3=moderate, 4=marked, and 5=severe. The sum of the 3 scores (I + E + S) will be divided by 3 to obtain a final PGA score ranging from 0 \[best\] to 5 \[worst\].

Percentage of participants with PGA score of cleared (0), cleared or minimal (0 or 1) and mild (less than or equal to 2) was reported. The PGA score is a numeric scale which is completed by the physician and is designed to evaluate the physician's overall assessment of the participant's psoriasis. Overall lesions will be graded for induration (I), erythema (E), and scaling (S) as: 0=cleared, 1=minimal, 2=mild, 3=moderate, 4=marked, and 5=severe. The sum of the 3 scores (I + E + S) will be divided by 3 to obtain a final PGA score ranging from 0 \[best\] to 5 \[worst\].

PASI is a widely used tool for the measurement of severity of psoriasis. The combination of redness, scaling, and thickness, as well as overall body involvement determine the PASI score. The scale ranges from 0 (best) to 72 (worst). Percentage of Treatment Response= (Baseline PASI score-PASI score after treatment)/Baseline PASI score x 100. Baseline visit refers to Week 0.

Treatment Response Based on Nail Psoriasis Severity Index (NAPSI) Score

The NAPSI score is used to evaluate the severity of nail bed psoriasis and nail matrix psoriasis. The nail is divided with into quadrants and given a score for nail bed psoriasis (0-4) and nail matrix psoriasis (0-4) depending on the presence of any of the features of nail psoriasis in that quadrant. Each nail is evaluated, and the sum of all the nails is the total NAPSI score. The sum of the scores from all nails ranges from 0 (no psoriasis) to 80 (psoriasis present in all 4 quadrants of all 10 nails).
