Summary

This clinical trial with 348 patients with psoriasis aims to investigate the effectiveness of a self-guided online program for patients with psoriasis.

Patients will be randomized and allocated in a 1:1 ratio to either an intervention group, in which they will receive 12-month-access to an online program for psoriasis in addition to treatment as usual (TAU, n = 174), or to a control group, in which they will receive only TAU (n = 174). TAU is defined as any therapy prescribed or recommended by the GP or specialists (e.g. dermatologist, psychiatrist), which may include topical therapy, phototherapy, pharmacotherapy, psychosocial therapy, etc.
