The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.

Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study tested whether a higher dose of the drug brodalumab works better than the standard dose for people with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis who weigh at least 120 kg. The trial involved 385 adults and lasted 52 weeks. The main goal was to see if more patients on the higher dose achieved at least 90% clearer skin by week 40.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
brodalumab (a biologic drug that blocks inflammation in the skin)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a better dosing strategy for psoriasis patients who weigh over 120 kg, helping more of them achieve clear or nearly clear skin.
What could go wrong
This is a Phase 4 study, so the drug is already approved. However, the adjusted dose may not work better than the standard dose, and higher doses could increase side effects like infections.

Key Inclusion Criteria: * Signed and dated informed consent has been obtained prior to any protocol-related procedures. * Age ≥18 to \<75 years at the time of screening. * Diagnosed with chronic plaque psoriasis at least 6 months before randomisation. * Body weight ≥120 kg at the time of screening. * Moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis as defined by: BSA ≥10% and PASI ≥12 at screening and baseline. * No evidence of active or latent tuberculosis according to local standard of care. Key Exclusion Criteria: * Diagnosed with erythrodermic psoriasis, pustular psoriasis, guttate psoriasis, medication-induced psoriasis, or other skin conditions (e.g., eczema) that would interfere with evaluations of the effect of the investigational medicinal product (IMP) on participants with plaque psoriasis. * Clinically important active infections or infestations, chronic, recurrent or latent infections or infestations, or is immunocompromised (e.g., human immunodeficiency virus, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C). * Any systemic disease considered by the investigator to be uncontrolled and either immunocompromising the participants and/or placing the participant at undue risk of intercurrent diseases (including, but not limited to, renal failure, heart failure, liver disease, diabetes, and anaemia). * History of Crohn's disease. * Myocardial infarction or stroke, or unstable angina pectoris within the past 12 months. * Any active malignancy. * History of malignancy within 5 years, except for treated and considered cured cutaneous squamous or basal cell carcinoma, in situ cervical cancer, or in situ breast ductal carcinoma. * History of suicidal behaviour (i.e., 'actual suicide attempt', 'interrupted attempt', 'aborted attempt', or 'preparatory acts or behaviour') based on the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) questionnaire at screening or at baseline. * Any suicidal ideation of category 4 or 5 ('active suicidal ideation with some intent to act, without specific plan' or ' active suicidal ideation with specific plan and intent') based on the C-SSRS questionnaire at screening or at baseline. * A Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ)-8 score of ≥10 corresponding to moderate-to-severe depression at screening or at baseline.
