Trial Outcomes & Findings for Nurse Education in Subjects With Psoriasis Undergoing Treatment With Adalimumab (NCT NCT01435265)

NCT ID: NCT01435265

Last Updated: 2018-08-29

Results Overview

The Psoriasis Area Severity Index measures severity of psoriasis on a 0-6 scale for head, trunk, upper extremities, and lower extremities and amount of erythema, infiltration, and desquamation for each area. An overall score of 0-72 for the whole body is calculated from the observed severity values. Outcomes will be reported in terms of PASI 75, or number of participants showing at least 75% reduction in PASI score from baseline. Only final PASI 75 will be reported.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months

Population: All participants who completed the study.

The Psoriasis Area Severity Index measures severity of psoriasis on a 0-6 scale for head, trunk, upper extremities, and lower extremities and amount of erythema, infiltration, and desquamation for each area. An overall score of 0-72 for the whole body is calculated from the observed severity values.
