Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study seeks to show whether there is additional benefit of using Lexette and Sorilux in the beginning of the treatment, and then maintenance treatment of Sorilux alone in moderate plaque type psoriasis patients.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a single-center, double-blind study. Approximately 30 qualified subjects will be enrolled into a 8 weeks study.

The study drugs that will be used in this study are Lexette® (0.05% Halobetasol propionate foam) and Sorilux® (calcipotriene foam). Both Lexette and Sorilux are approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat psoriasis.

Subjects will be randomized to study treatment at a 1:1 ratio: of Lexette plus Sorilux for 2 weeks versus Lexette plus vehicle for 2 weeks. Those subjects who are clear or almost clear at the end of 2 weeks will be re-randomized into Sorilux for 6 weeks versus vehicle for 6 weeks at 1:1 ratio.

Subjects will attend a Screening Visit/Baseline visit and if found eligible will be randomized to study treatment. Total study period is 8 weeks. Study visits will be, screening/baseline, week 2 and week 8. Study assessments will be at each visit: BSA, PGA, Itch VAS, DLQI, and TLSS in addition to standard medical assessments. There will be a standard prohibited medication/treatment and washout periods.
