Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Group A

Three microneedle device samples will be collected from a psoriasis lesion and from nonlesional (healthy) skin on Day 1. Two skin biopsies of 4 millimeter (mm) will be performed on Day 1. No investigational drug product will be administered during this study.

Device: Microneedle Device
Microneedle device will be used for collecting skin samples as a non-invasive method.

Group B

One microneedle device sample will be collected from a psoriasis lesion and from nonlesional (healthy) skin on Day 1 and at Weeks 2 and 4. Two skin biopsies of 4 mm will be performed on Day 1. No investigational drug product will be administered during this study.

Device: Microneedle Device
Microneedle device will be used for collecting skin samples as a non-invasive method.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Measurement of Expression by RNA-sequencing (RNAseq) of Extracted RNA Using Punch Biopsy Method Versus Microneedle Device Sampling Method [Up to 28 days]

    Measurement of expression by ribonucleic acid (RNA)-sequencing of extracted RNA by the frequently used punch biopsy method and the microneedle device will be performed to have a comparison between both the methods.

Eligibility Criteria

Criteria

Ages Eligible for Study:
18 Years and Older
Sexes Eligible for Study:
All
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
No
Inclusion Criteria:
  • Participant has a history of chronic plaque psoriasis vulgaris for at least 6 months prior to the screening visit

  • Participant has had stable psoriasis conditions for at least 3 months before screening (information obtained from medical chart or participant's physician, or directly from the participant)

  • Participant has plaque psoriasis covering >= 1% but < 10% of his total BSA on Day 1

  • For Group A: Participant has one psoriasis target lesion or individual lesions within the same anatomical region (excluding palms, soles, face, scalp, and genitals), with a target lesion severity score (TLSS) score of >= 6 on Day 1 allowing the collection of three microneedle device samples and one biopsy sample

  • For Group B: Participant has one psoriasis target lesion or individual lesions within the same anatomical region (excluding palms, soles, face, scalp, and genitals), with a TLSS score of >= 6 on Day 1 allowing the collection of one microneedle device sample per visit (replicating the extraction on the same area at each visit) and one biopsy sample

Exclusion Criteria:
  • Participant is a female who is breastfeeding, pregnant, or who is planning to become pregnant during the study

  • Participant has evidence of erythrodermic, pustular, predominantly guttate psoriasis, or drug-induced psoriasis

  • Participant has a history of skin disease or presence of skin condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would interfere with the sample collection or interpretation

  • Participant is known to have immune deficiency or is immunocompromised

  • Participant has a history of cancer or lymphoproliferative disease within 5 years prior to Day 1. Participants with successfully treated nonmetastatic cutaneous squamous cell or basal cell carcinoma and/or localized carcinoma in situ of the cervix are not to be excluded
