Brief Summary

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

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, proof-of-concept study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of ORKA-001 in adult participants with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis.

Detailed Description

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

This is a proof-of-concept study evaluating ORKA-001 in patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis with study drug administration divided into an Induction period followed by a Maintenance period. Following completion of the Maintenance period at Week 52, participants will have the option to enter into the open-label extension (OLE) study.
