Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

  • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).


    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   43861   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The main objectives of this study were to assess the efficacy and safety of risankizumab, compared to ustekinumab and placebo, in subjects with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis. In addition, this study was to assess pharmacokinetics (PK) and the emergence of anti-drug antibodies and their effect on efficacy and safety.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Only subjects that met all the study inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria were to be entered in the study. All subjects were informed that they were free to withdraw their consent at any time during the study without penalty or prejudice. The subjects were informed that their personal trial related data would be considered confidential and used by BI in accordance with the local data protection laws. The level of disclosure was explained to the subjects. The subjects were also informed that their medical records could be examined by Clinical Quality Assurance auditors appointed by BI, by members of the appropriate Independent Ethics Committee (IEC), and by inspectors from regulatory authorities. Confidentiality of subject data was ensured by the use of depersonalised subject identification codes (subject numbers). If a subject continued to take trial medication, close monitoring was adhered to and all adverse events recorded. The terms and conditions of the insurance cover were available to the investigator and the subjects in the Investigator Site File (ISF).

    Percentage of Participants Achieving 90% Improvement in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) Score (PASI90) at Week 16 in Participants Who Received Risankizumab Compared With Placebo (Part A). [1]
    End point description
    PASI is a composite score based on the degree of effect on body surface area of psoriasis and the extension of erythema (reddening), induration (thickness), desquamation (scaling) of the lesions and area affected as observed on the day of examination. The severity of each sign was assessed using a 5-point scale, where 0=no symptoms, 1=slight, 2=moderate, 3=marked, 4=very marked. The PASI score ranges from 0 to 72, where 0 indicates no psoriasis and 72 indicates very severe psoriasis. PASI90 is defined as at least a 90% reduction in PASI score compared with the Baseline PASI score. The percent reduction in score is calculated as (PASI score at Baseline - score at follow-up visit) / PASI score at Baseline * 100. Nonresponder imputation (NRI) was used for missing data. ITT population (Intent-to-treat (ITT): All participants who were randomized at Week 0) was used for this assessment.

    Percentage of Participants Achieving Static Physician Global Assessment (sPGA) Score of Clear or Almost Clear at Week 16 in Participants Who Received Risankizumab Compared With Placebo (Part A). [5]
    End point description
    The sPGA is an assessment by the investigator of the overall disease severity at the time of evaluation. Erythema (E), induration (I), and desquamation (D) are scored on a 5-point scale ranging from 0 (none) to 4 (severe). The sPGA ranges from 0 to 4, and is calculated as Clear (0) = 0 for all three; Almost clear (1) = mean >0, <1.5; Mild (2) = mean ≥1.5, <2.5; Moderate (3) = mean ≥2.5, <3.5; and Severe (4) = mean ≥3.5.

    End point description
    The sPGA is an assessment by the investigator of the overall disease severity at the time of evaluation. Erythema (E), induration (I), and desquamation (D) are scored on a 5-point scale ranging from 0 (none) to 4 (severe). The sPGA ranges from 0 to 4, and is calculated as Clear (0) = 0 for all three; Almost clear (1) = mean >0, <1.5; Mild (2) = mean ≥1.5, <2.5; Moderate (3) = mean ≥2.5, <3.5; and Severe (4) = mean ≥3.5.

    PASI is a composite score based on the degree of effect on body surface area of psoriasis and the extension of erythema (reddening), induration (thickness), desquamation (scaling) of the lesions and area affected as observed on the day of examination. The severity of each sign was assessed using a 5-point scale, where 0=no symptoms, 1=slight, 2=moderate, 3=marked, 4=very marked. The PASI score ranges from 0 to 72, where 0 indicates no psoriasis and 72 indicates very severe psoriasis. PASI100 is defined as a 100% reduction in PASI score compared with the Baseline PASI score. The percent reduction in score is calculated as (PASI score at Baseline - score at follow-up visit) / PASI score at Baseline * 100. NRI was used for missing data.

    Percentage of Participants Achieving Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) score of 0 or 1 at Week 16 in Participants Who Received Risankizumab Compared With Placebo (Part A) [17]
    End point description
    DLQI is a 10-question questionnaire that asks the participant to evaluate the degree that psoriasis has affected their quality of life in the last week and includes 6 domains (symptoms and feelings, daily activities, leisure, work and school, personal relationships, and treatment). Responses to each domain are not relevant (0), not at all (0), a little (1), a lot (2), and very much (3). The DLQI is calculated by summing the scores of the questions and ranges from 0 to 30, where 0-1 = no effect on patient’s life, 2-5 = small effect, 6-10 = moderate effect, 11-20 = very large effect, and 21-30 = extremely large effect on patient’s life. The higher the score, the more the quality of life is impaired.). A 5-point change from baseline is considered a clinically important difference. NRI was used for missing data. ITT population was used for this assessment.

    End point description
    PASI is a composite score based on the degree of effect on body surface area of psoriasis and the extension of erythema (reddening), induration (thickness), desquamation (scaling) of the lesions and area affected as observed on the day of examination. The severity of each sign was assessed using a 5-point scale, where 0=no symptoms, 1=slight, 2=moderate, 3=marked, 4=very marked. The PASI score ranges from 0 to 72, where 0 indicates no psoriasis and 72 indicates very severe psoriasis. PASI100 is defined as a 100% reduction in PASI score compared with the Baseline PASI score. The percent reduction in score is calculated as (PASI score at Baseline - score at follow-up visit) / PASI score at Baseline * 100. Nonresponder imputation (NRI) was used for missing data. ITT population was used for this assessment. Analysis performed on all participants randomized to ustekinumab or risankizumab treatment in Part A.

    Percentage of Participants Achieving DLQI score of 0 or 1 at Week 16 in Participants Who Received Risankizumab Compared With Ustekinumab (Part A) [58]
    End point description
    DLQI is a 10-question questionnaire that asks the participant to evaluate the degree that psoriasis has affected their quality of life in the last week and includes 6 domains (symptoms and feelings, daily activities, leisure, work and school, personal relationships, and treatment). Responses to each domain are not relevant (0), not at all (0), a little (1), a lot (2), and very much (3). The DLQI is calculated by summing the scores of the questions and ranges from 0 to 30, where 0-1 = no effect on patient’s life, 2-5 = small effect, 6-10 = moderate effect, 11-20 = very large effect, and 21-30 = extremely large effect on patient’s life. The higher the score, the more the quality of life is impaired.). A 5-point change from baseline is considered a clinically important difference. NRI was used for missing data. ITT population was used for this assessment.

    The PSS asks the participant to rate the severity of symptoms of psoriasis in the last 24 hours (pain, redness, itching, and burning) using a 5-point Likert –type scale ranging from 0 (none) to 4 (very severe). The PSS total score is calculated by summing the scores of the questions and ranges from 0 to 16, where the higher the score, the greater the severity of psoriasis symptoms. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement. Last observation carried forward (LOCF) imputation was used for missing data. ITT population was used for this assessment.
