First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study follows about 200 children aged 6 to 17 with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis who are taking secukinumab (Cosentyx). Researchers want to see how long patients stay on the drug, how well it controls their psoriasis, and how tolerable it is. The study collects data from the past and tracks patients going forward to get a real-world picture of the treatment's effectiveness.

What this could lead to
