Sequential Treatment of Psoriasis With Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine

Study Purpose

The purpose of this study is to objectively and standardly evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of sequential treatment of psoriasis with traditional Chinese and Western medicine through a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

Yes
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT05042635
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Plaque Psoriasis
Additional Details

Psoriasis is a chronic, recurrent, inflammatory disease. The incidence of this disease is increasing year by year, seriously affecting people's quality of life. Biologic agents have the advantages of rapid and efficient treatment of moderate and severe psoriasis, but their safety and recurrence are still seriously affect the application. Traditional Chinese medicine treatment of psoriasis has the advantages of fewer adverse reactions, low recurrence rate and improvement of patients' systemic symptoms while exerting the curative effect. The prevention and treatment of psoriasis by combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine has become the academic consensus. The sequential treatment of psoriasis with biological agents combined with Traditional Chinese medicine has a better therapeutic effect than that of single therapy. At present, the sequential treatment of psoriasis with targeted biological agents combined with traditional Chinese medicine has not been reported in the literature, and there is a lack of high-level clinical evidence to support it. Therefore, this project aims to provide evidence support for the clinical efficacy and safety of sequential treatment of psoriasis by traditional Chinese and Western medicine through a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.

Arms & Interventions

Arms

Experimental: Ixekizumab (4 weeks) + Jueyin Granules (12 weeks)

Subjects received Ixekizumab in the first 4 weeks (biologic treatment period); After the cessation of biologic treatment, only Jueyin Granules was used in the 12-week traditional Chinese medicine treatment period.

Placebo Comparator: Ixekizumab (4 weeks) + Jueyin placebo Granules(12 weeks)

Subjects received Ixekizumab in the first 4 weeks (biologic treatment period); After the cessation of biologic treatment, only Jueyin placebo Granules was used in the 12-week traditional Chinese medicine treatment period.

Interventions

Drug: - Ixekizumab+Jueyin Granules

Ixekizumab:160mg was injected subcutaneously at week 0 (80mg twice), then 80mg at week 2 and 4 (once). Jueyin Granules:Put each bag of daily dose into the same container, pour about 50ml warm water into it, stir until the particles are basically dissolved, then add proper amount of boiling water to dilute it, take it warm in two times.

Drug: - Ixekizumab+Jueyin placebo Granules
