NCT ID NCT05670821
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study monitored 52 Japanese patients with generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) who received spesolimab for acute symptoms. Researchers tracked side effects and disease activity in everyday clinical settings, not a controlled lab environment. The goal was to see how well the drug works and how safe it is when used in real-world practice.
