Efficacy and Safety of HAT1 Compared to Calcipotriol in Patients With Mild to Moderate Chronic Plaque Psoriasis

• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2016-09-05
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

Psoriasis, the most prevalent autoimmune disease in the U.S., manifests with plaque type psoriasis vulgaris with lesions localized to the scalp, postauricular region, face, diaper area, elbows, and knees. Inadequately controlled disease is common and a significant cause of extensive psychological and clinical morbidity in children. In addition, the safety and tolerability issues of common treatments for psoriasis including topical corticosteroids, calcipotriol, oral cytotoxic drugs, and biologic agents are especially problematic in patients that limit their use. Identification of therapies with high efficacy and safety profiles suitable for patients with psoriasis is therefore an area of critical unmet need. Haus Bioceuticals has developed a topical treatment for psoriasis denoted HAT1 (based on ingredients that have established clinical benefit), and have demonstrated that HAT1 is safe and profoundly effective in the treatment of psoriasis. This study is aimed to further evaluate the efficacy and safety of HAT1 compared to commonly used calcipotriol in patients with mild to moderate chronic plaque psoriasis.
