About

This study will provide data on sasety and efficacy of Ustekinumab in patients suffering from Palmo-Plantar Pustular Psoriasis (PPPP) or Palmo-Plantar Pustulosis(PPP)

Full description

Twenty patients with active Palmo-Plantar Pustular Psoriasis (cohort A) and twenty patients with active Palmo-Plantar Pustulosis (cohort B) will be included in this placebo-controlled double-blind study.Patients in each cohort will be randomized (1:1) to receive either ustekinumab S/C (Sub-Cutaneous) (45 mg for patients weighting 100 kg or less, and 90 mg for patients weighting more than 100 kg) or placebo.

Patients randomized to ustekinumab (10 with PPPP and 10 with PPP) will receive ustekinumab at Day 0, Weeks 4 and 16 and placebo at Week 20 whereas patients randomized to placebo (10 with PPPP and 10 with PPP) will receive placebo at Weeks 0 and 4 and ustekinumab at Weeks 16 and 20.

Patients will be seen at screening, Day 0, Weeks 4, 8, 16, 20, 24 and 28. The PPPASI (Palmo-Plantar Pustular Area and Severity Index), PPPGA (Palmo-Plantar Physician Global Assessment), PPSA (Palmo-Plantar Surface Area) will be used to evaluate severity and DLQI (Dermatology Life Quality Index), WPAI:PSO (Work Productivity and Activity Impairement Questionnaire:Psoriasis) and PPQoLI (Palmo-Plantar Quality of Life Index)will be used to evaluate quality of life. Safety will be assessed by physical examinations, evaluation of adverse events and laboratory analyses.

High quality digital medical photographs of palms and soles will be taken at Day 0, Weeks 4, 16 and 28. In addition, one optional skin biopsy from a palm or a sole will be performed at Day 0 and Week 16 and pus will be collected from pustules on palms and/or soles at Day 0 and Week 16. Finally, blood will be collected at Day 0 for genetic analysis from every patient who consents to DNA blood sampling.

Inclusion criteria

  • Have had for at least 6 months either:

    • Palmo-plantar pustular psoriasis defined as active palmo-plantar disease morphology suggestive of psoriasis with at least one plaque of typical psoriasis outside the palms and soles or a history of typical plaque psoriasis outside the palms and soles (cohort A) OR
    • Palmo-plantar pustulosis defined as active palmo-plantar morphology suggestive of palmo-plantar pustulosis without lesions of psoriasis outside palms and soles and without a history of psoriasis (cohort B).
  • PPPASI score of at least 8 on hands and/or feet and a PPPGA score of 3 (moderate) or 4 (severe) at Day 0

  • Stable palmo-plantar pustular psoriasis or palmo-plantar pustulosis for the past 4 weeks

  • Men or women 18 years of age or older at time of consent

  • Must be candidate for phototherapy and systemic therapy

  • Unless surgically sterile (or at least 1 year post-menopausal for women), or abstinent, patient (male or female) is willing to use an effective method of contraception for at least 30 days before Day 0 and until at least 12 months after the last drug administration. Effective method of contraception are:

    • Condom with spermicide, sponge with spermicide, foams with spermicide, jellies with spermicide, diaphragm with spermicide
    • Intra uterine device (IUD)
    • Contraceptives (oral or parenteral)
    • Nuvaring
    • Vasectomy or vasectomised partner
    • Surgically sterile or post-menopausal partner
    • Same-sex partner
  • Capable of giving informed consent and the consent must be obtained prior to any study related procedures

  • Are considered eligible according to the following TB (Tuberculosis) screening criteria:

    • Have no history of latent or active TB prior to screening Patients with latent TB discovered at screening are not eligible for this study, even if they receive isoniazide or rifampin prophylaxis.
    • No signs or symptoms suggestive of active TB upon medical history and/or physical examination.
    • No recent close contact with a person with active TB or, if there was such contact, have a negative QuantiFERON-TB Gold test (or a negative tuberculin (less than 5mm) skin test when QuantiFERON-TB Gold is not available) and have been referred to a physician specializing in TB to undergo additional evaluation to rule out TB infection.
    • Within 6 weeks prior to the first administration of study agent, have a negative QuantiFERON-TB Gold test. For patients enrolled at sites that where QuantiFERON-TB Gold test is not available, have a negative tuberculin (less than 5mm) skin test.
    • A chest radiograph (posterior-anterior as defined by site-specific requirements), taken within 3 months prior to the first administration of study agent and read by a qualified radiologist, with no evidence of current active TB or old inactive TB
  • Female patients of childbearing potential have had a negative serum pregnancy test at the screening visit

Exclusion criteria

  • Have used topical steroids, topical tar preparations or other topical anti-psoriatic preparations within 2 weeks preceding Day 0 except for the following which is allowed- mild to moderate potency topical corticosteroids for the face, groin, axilla, genitalia and scalp as long as they are applied with gloves: hydrocortisone, desonide, hydrocortisone valerate
  • Have presence of erythrodermic or generalized pustular psoriasis
  • Have presence of acute forms of tinea pedis and other causes of pustular eruptions of palms and soles apart from PPPP or PPP based on clinical evaluation or evidence of any skin condition that would interfere with the evaluation of PPPP or PPP
  • Have had, based on investigator's judgment, any significant infection within 30 days preceding Day 0
  • Have used any investigational drugs within 4 weeks of Day 0 or 5 times the half-life of the investigational agent prior to the first administration of study agent, whichever is longer
