Psoriasis pill tested for rare muscle disease

NCT ID NCT07012057

Summary

This study aimed to test if an oral medication called deucravacitinib, already approved for plaque psoriasis, could help adults with dermatomyositis or juvenile dermatomyositis who did not respond well to standard treatments. Participants would have taken the pill twice daily for 24 weeks while attending regular clinic visits to monitor their muscle strength, skin symptoms, and safety. The trial was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled.
