Brief Summary:
A Phase II, Multicenter, Double-blind, Double-dummy, Placebo controlled, Randomized Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of AUR101 in patients with Moderate-to-Severe Psoriasis (INDUS-3)
| Condition or disease | Intervention/treatment | Phase |
|---|---|---|
| Plaque Psoriasis | Drug: AUR101 Drug: Placebo | Phase 2 |
This will be a multicenter, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo controlled, randomized study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AUR101 in patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis.
Approximately 128 patients with chronic moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis (defined as Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) ≥12 and Body Surface Area (BSA) involved ≥10%) will be randomized to four groups (three dose groups of AUR101 and one placebo group) in the ratio of 1:1:1:1.
The patients in each arm will receive AUR101 of 200 mg twice daily, 400 mg twice daily, 400 mg once daily or matching placebo for 12 weeks in a double blind, double dummy fashion. All patients will be followed up for 14 ± 2 days of their last dose for safety assessment.
