Summary

Rationale/hypothesis: Moderate-to-severe psoriasis can be treated with biologics.

Objective To investigate whether the dose of biologics can be reduced in patients with psoriasis with stable disease.

Study design: A pragmatic, multicentre, randomized, controlled, non-inferiority study with cost-effectiveness analysis.

Study population: Patients with disease remission using normal dose of biologics.

Intervention: 120 patients will be randomized into two groups: (1) dose reduction and (2) normal dose.

Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary outcome is clinical effectiveness. Secondary outcomes are: health-related quality of life (HRQoL), number and time to disease flares, costs, health status, anti-drug antibody formation and serious adverse events
