Summary

This study tested an oral medication called deucravacitinib against a placebo in 154 adults with moderate-to-severe scalp psoriasis. The main goal was to see if more people achieved clear or almost clear scalp skin after 16 weeks of treatment. This is a disease-control study, meaning the treatment aims to manage symptoms rather than cure the condition.
