New pill shows promise for clearing stubborn scalp psoriasis

NCT ID NCT05478499

Summary

This study tested whether an oral medication called deucravacitinib could clear or nearly clear scalp psoriasis better than a placebo. It involved 154 adults with moderate-to-severe scalp psoriasis who had not gotten enough relief from topical creams. Researchers measured how well the drug reduced scalp redness, thickness, scaliness, and itch over 16 weeks.
