Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a phase Ⅲ, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel design, multicenter trial to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of subcutaneous Tildrakizumab in subjects with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis.
The trial was divided into two parts: the base study (Week 0- Week 12) and the extension study (Week 13- Week 54).

Phase 3 |
Detailed Description
Base Study： 220 subjects were randomized in a 1: 1 ratio into the trial, and the treatment group received 100 mg subcutaneous Tildrakizumab at Week 0 and Week 4, 100 mg subcutaneous placebo at Week 12, while the placebo group received 100 mg subcutaneous placebo at Week 0 and Week 4, and 100 mg subcutaneous Tildrakizumab at Week 12, and subjects will be evaluated for efficacy, safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity as specified in this protocol. At the end of the base study, procedures such as data cleaning, locking and unblinding of base study data were performed.
Extension Study： Subjects entered the extension study after completion of the base study and will receive 100 mg subcutaneous Tildrakizumab at Week 16, 28, 40, and 52, and will be evaluated for efficacy, safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity by the investigator according to the regulations of this study.
At the end of the extension study, all data from the extension study will be entered into the database, after the data is reviewed, cleaned, and locked, the entire trial will be analyzed.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- The proportion of subjects with at least 75% improvement in the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI 75) at Week 12 from baseline in each group. [Week 12]
The PASI is a measure of the average redness, thickness, and scaliness of lesions (each graded on a 0-4 scale), weighed by the area of involvement. Calculated PASI score ranges from 0 to 72, with higher score indicating more severe disease status.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- The proportion of subjects in each group with a Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) score of "clear" or "minimal" and at least a 2-grade reduction from baseline at Week 4, 8, and 12. [Week 4, 8, and 12]
The PGA is used to determine the overall severity of a participant's psoriasis lesions at a given time point. Overall lesions will be graded for thickness, erythema, and scaling on a scale from 0 to 5. The sum of the 3 scales will be divided by 3 to obtain the PGA score. PGA is assessed as: 0= Cleared, except for residual discoloration. 1= Minimal, majority of lesions have individual scores that average 1. 2 =Mild, majority of lesions have individual scores that average 2. 3= Moderate, majority of lesions have individual scores that average 3. 4= Marked, majority of lesions have individual scores that average 4. 5= Severe, majority of lesions have individual scores that average 5.
- Change from baseline in the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) at Week 12 in each group. [Week 12]
The DLQI questionnaire consists of 10 questions, where each question is scored from 0 (not affected at all) to 3 (very much affected). The DLQI score is the sum of the 10 individual question scores and ranges from 0 to 30, with lower scores indicating better quality of life.
- Change from baseline in PASI 75, 90, and 100 responses over time from Week 0 to Week 12 in each group. [Week 12]
The PASI is a measure of the average redness, thickness, and scaliness of lesions (each graded on a 0-4 scale), weighed by the area of involvement. Calculated PASI score ranges from 0 to 72, with higher score indicating more severe disease status.
Other Outcome Measures
- Work Productivity Loss Questionnaire (WPLQ) at Week 12, 28, 40, 52 in each group. [Week 12, 28, 40, 52]
The WPLQ provided information for evaluation of the impact of the subject's psoriasis on their work.
- Mean variations and change from baseline in PASI score over time from Week 0 to Week 52 in each group. [Week 0 to Week 52]
The PASI is a measure of the average redness, thickness, and scaliness of lesions (each graded on a 0-4 scale), weighed by the area of involvement. Calculated PASI score ranges from 0 to 72, with higher score indicating more severe disease status.
- Change from baseline in the proportion of subjects with a PGA score of "clear" or "minimal" and at least a 2-grade reduction from baseline at weeks 28, 40 and 52 in each group. [Week 28, 40, 52]
The PGA is used to determine the overall severity of a participant's psoriasis lesions at a given time point. Overall lesions will be graded for thickness, erythema, and scaling on a scale from 0 to 5. The sum of the 3 scales will be divided by 3 to obtain the PGA score. PGA is assessed as: 0= Cleared, except for residual discoloration. 1= Minimal, majority of lesions have individual scores that average 1. 2 =Mild, majority of lesions have individual scores that average 2. 3= Moderate, majority of lesions have individual scores that average 3. 4= Marked, majority of lesions have individual scores that average 4. 5= Severe, majority of lesions have individual scores that average 5.
- Change from baseline in DLQI at Week 28, 40, 52 in each group. [Week 28, 40, 52]
The DLQI questionnaire consists of 10 questions, where each question is scored from 0 (not affected at all) to 3 (very much affected). The DLQI score is the sum of the 10 individual question scores and ranges from 0 to 30, with lower scores indicating better quality of life.
- Change from baseline in PASI 75, 90, 100 response at Week 28, 40, 52 in each group. [Week 28, 40, 52]
The PASI is a measure of the average redness, thickness, and scaliness of lesions (each graded on a 0-4 scale), weighed by the area of involvement. Calculated PASI score ranges from 0 to 72, with higher score indicating more severe disease status.
- The positive rate and change of anti-drug antibodies in subjects treated with Tildrakizumab at Week 0, 4, 12, 28, 40 and 52 in each group. [Week 0, 4, 12, 28, 40 and 52]
Observe and evaluate the positive rate and change of anti-drug antibodies of Tildrakizumab in patients after treatment. Blood sampling point design: Anti-drug antibodies: Blood samples will be collected on Day 1 of Week 0, Day 1 (± 3 days) of Week 4 and Week 12, Day 1 (± 5 days) of Week 28, and Day 1 (± 7 days) of Week 40 and Week 52 prior to dosing or at the Early Withdrawal Visit, with 5 mL of whole blood collected each, divided into two tubes (test tube and backup tube) after centrifugation.

Observe and evaluate the positive rate and change of neutralizing antibodies of Tildrakizumab in patients after treatment. Blood sampling point design: neutralising antibodies (neutralising antibodies should be tested if anti-drug antibodies are positive): Blood samples will be collected on Day 1 of Week 0, Day 1 (± 3 days) of Week 4 and Week 12, Day 1 (± 5 days) of Week 28, and Day 1 (± 7 days) of Week 40 and Week 52 prior to dosing or at the Early Withdrawal Visit, with 5 mL of whole blood collected each, divided into two tubes (test tube and backup tube) after centrifugation.
