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   43857   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 purpose of the study was to compare the efficacy of Guselkumab with commercially available active comparator FAE initial/FAE tablets for the treatment of adult subjects with moderate to severe plaque-type psoriasis who had not yet received any systemic therapy; and to assess the safety and tolerability of guselkumab in systemic treatment-naïve subjects with moderate to severe plaque-type psoriasis.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in accordance with the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki and that are consistent with Good Clinical Practices and applicable regulatory requirements. Safety evaluations included monitoring of adverse events (AEs), infections, clinical laboratory parameters (chemistry, hematology, urinalysis), vital signs, and physical examination.

    Subjects received GUS 100 milligram (mg) administered as 100 mg per milliliter (mg/mL) solution subcutaneously (SC) at Weeks 0, 4, then every 8 weeks (at Week 12 and 20 - Part I). Subjects who completed Part I continued to receive GUS 100 mg at Week 28 and 32 - Part IIa. At Week 32, PASI 75 response was evaluated. PASI 75 responders and non-responders of GUS arm continued to receive GUS 100 mg SC every 8 weeks (weeks 36, 44 and 52). PASI 75 non-responders of FAE switched to 100 mg GUS SC at Week 32, continued at Week 36, 44 and 52. Safety follow-up was done at Week 32 (Part I), Week 64 (Part II) and up to 12 weeks after discontinuing drug. Subjects who received GUS in Part II (who started GUS at Week 0/ switched from FAE to GUS at Week 32), had no psoriatic arthritis at baseline and achieved PASI 90 response at end of Part II (Week 56), entered follow-up extension at Week 64 in Part III and were followed-up until loss of response/ until Week 100.

    Subjects received FAE tablets by self-administration at Week 0. Doses were up-titrated and were taken every day with different daily doses depending on optimal individual benefit risk ratio (maximum 6*120 mg/day) as per local prescribing information up to Week 24 (Part I). Subjects who completed Part I and consented for Part IIa continued to receive same treatment up to Week 32 (Part IIa). At Week 32, PASI 75 response was evaluated and PASI 75 responders of FAE arm continued to receive commercially available FAE tablets specifically labeled for study (Part IIb) up to Week 56. PASI 75 non-responders of FAE arm were switched to 100 mg GUS SC at Weeks 32 and received 100 mg GUS SC at Week 36, 44 and Week 52 (Part IIb). For subjects who discontinued study, a safety follow-up was done at Week 32 (Part I) or Week 64 (Part II) or 12 weeks after last treatment (whatever came first). For all subjects who continued study, safety was followed-up at every visit.

    End point description
    PASI is system used for assessing and grading severity of psoriatic lesions and their response to therapy. In PASI system, body is divided into 4 regions: head, trunk, upper extremities, lower extremities. Each area is assessed separately for percentage of area involved, which translates to numeric score from 0 (indicates no involvement) to 6 (90 percent [%] to 100% involvement), and for erythema, induration, and scaling, each rated on scale of 0 (none) to 4 (severe). PASI produces score range from 0 (no visible skin involvement) to 72 (maximal skin involvement of whole body). Higher score indicates more severe disease. PASI 90 response denotes subjects achieving 90% improvement from baseline in PASI score. Efficacy analysis set (EAS) included all subjects randomized to 1 of 2 treatments (GUS or FAE) at Week 0 regardless of treatment they received. Missing data was imputed by non-responder imputation (NRI) (subjects with missing data at Week 4,16 and 24 were non-responders).

Each question was evaluated on 4-point scale ranging from 0 (not at all) to 3 (very much); higher scores indicate more impact on quality of life. DLQI produces total numeric score ranging from 0 (not at all) to 30 (very much): 0-1=no effect at all on subject's life; 2-6=small effect 7-12=moderate effect; 13-18 =very large effect; 19-30 =extremely large effect. Higher score indicates low quality of life due to more severe disease.

    The PASI is a system used for assessing and grading the severity of psoriatic lesions and their response to therapy. In the PASI system, the body is divided into 4 regions: the head, trunk, upper extremities, and lower extremities. Each of these areas is assessed separately for the percentage of the area involved, which translates to a numeric score that ranges from 0 (indicates no involvement) to 6 (90 percent [%] to 100% involvement), and for erythema, induration, and scaling, which are each rated on a scale of 0 (none) to 4 (severe). The PASI produces a numeric score that can range from 0 (no visible skin involvement) to 72 (maximal skin involvement of the whole body). A higher score indicates more severe disease. A PASI 100 response represents subjects who achieved a 100% improvement from baseline in the PASI score.

It consisted 11 items covering symptoms (itch, pain, stinging, burning, skin tightness) and signs (skin dryness, cracking, scaling, shedding/ flaking, redness, bleeding) with 0 (absent) to 10 (worst imaginable) scale for severity. Items averaged on daily symptom score and sign score when at least 3 items >= 50% of 5 items on these scales are answered. Average value converted into 0-100 scoring, such that Symptom [or Sign] score=average value*10, where, 0=least severe and 100=most severe, higher score indicates more severe disease. EAS included all subjects randomized to 1 of 2 groups (GUS or FAE) at Week 0 regardless of treatment received. Missing data imputed using last observed carried forward (LOCF) imputation method.

    End point description
    PASI is system used for assessing and grading severity of psoriatic lesions and their response to therapy. In PASI system, body is divided into 4 regions: head, trunk, upper extremities, lower extremities. Each areas is assessed separately for percentage of area involved, which translates to numeric score that ranges from 0 (indicates no involvement) to 6 (90% to 100% involvement), and for erythema, induration, and scaling, which are each rated on scale of 0 (none) to 4 (severe). PASI produces numeric score that range from 0 (no visible skin involvement) to 72 (maximal skin involvement of whole body). Higher score indicates more severe disease. Percentage of subjects who achieved absolute PASI score <=1 were assessed. EAS included all subjects randomized to 1 of 2 treatment groups (GUS or FAE) at Week 0 regardless of treatment they actually received. Missing data was imputed using NRI (subjects with missing data at Week 4,16 and 24 were considered non-responders).

    End point description
    The Investigator’s Global Assessment (IGA) documents the investigator’s assessment of the subject's psoriasis at a given time. Overall lesions are graded for induration, erythema, and scaling. The subject's psoriasis is assessed as cleared (0), minimal (1), mild (2), moderate (3), or severe (4). EAS included all subjects who were randomized to one of the two treatment groups (GUS or FAE) at Week 0 regardless of the treatment they actually received.

    Part I: Change from Baseline in Percent Body Surface Area (%BSA) Psoriatic Involvement at Week 24
    End point description
    BSA as physical measure to define disease severity is to determine how much of the Body Surface Area (BSA) is affected by psoriasis. Involved BSA is calculated by using the palm of the subject's hand as equivalent to 1% of the BSA (rule of palm). Psoriasis affected BSA under 5% suggests mild psoriasis, a BSA of 5% to 10% is considered moderate, and an involved BSA of over 10% indicates severe psoriasis. EAS included all subjects who were randomized to one of the two treatment groups (GUS or FAE) at Week 0 regardless of the treatment they actually received. Missing data was imputed using LOCF imputation method. Here N (number of subjects analysed) signifies number of subjects evaluable for this endpoint.

    SF-36 V2 is 36-item questionnaire measuring health-related quality of life (HRQL) covering 2 summary measures: physical component summary (PCS) and mental component summary (MCS). SF-36 consists of 8 subscales (physical function, role limitations due to physical problems, pain, general health perception, vitality, social function, role limitations due to emotional problems, and mental health). Subjects self-report on items in subscale that have between 2-6 choices per item using Likert-type responses (e.g. none of time, some of time, etc.). Summations of item scores of same subscale give subscale scores, which are transformed into range from 0 to 100; 0= worst HRQL, 100=best HRQL. Higher scores indicate better health status. EAS included all subjects randomized to 1 of 2 groups (GUS or FAE) at Week 0 regardless of treatment received. Missing data was imputed using LOCF.

In PASI system, body is divided into 4 regions: head, trunk, upper extremities, lower extremities. Each area is assessed separately for percentage of area involved, which translates to numeric score from 0 (indicates no involvement) to 6 (90 percent [%] to 100% involvement), and for erythema, induration, and scaling, each rated on scale of 0 (none) to 4 (severe). PASI produces numeric score range from 0 (no visible skin involvement) to 72 (maximal skin involvement of whole body). Higher score indicates more severe disease. PASI 90 response denotes subjects achieving 90% improvement from baseline in PASI score. Part III analysis set included all subjects who were treated with guselkumab during Part IIb (Weeks 32 to 64) and entered Part III. Missing data was imputed using NRI (subjects with missing data at Week 64,76,88 and 100 were considered non-responders).

    End point description
    PSSD (7-day version) is patient-reported outcome (PRO) questionnaire designed and validated to measure severity of psoriasis symptoms and signs for assessment of treatment benefit. It consisted of 11 items covering symptoms (itch, pain, stinging, burning, and skin tightness) and patient-observable signs (skin dryness, cracking, scaling, shedding or flaking, redness, and bleeding) using 0 (absent) to 10 (worst imaginable) numerical rating scales for severity. Items were averaged on daily symptom score and sign score when at least 3 items >= 50 percentage of 5 items on these scales are answered. The average value is converted into 0-100 scoring, such that Symptom [or Sign] score=average value*10, where, 0= least severe and 100=most severe and higher score indicates more severe disease. Part III analysis set included all subjects who were treated with guselkumab during Part IIb (Weeks 32 to 64) and entered Part III. Missing data was imputed using LOCF imputation method.

    BSA as physical measure to define disease severity is to determine how much of the Body Surface Area (BSA) is affected by psoriasis. Involved BSA is calculated by using the palm of the subject's hand as equivalent to 1% of the BSA (rule of palm). Psoriasis affected BSA under 5% suggests mild psoriasis, a BSA of 5% to 10% is considered moderate, and an involved BSA of over 10% indicates severe psoriasis.

    Part III: Change From Baseline (week 56) in 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey Version 2 (SF-36 V2) Physical Component Summary (PCS) and Mental Component Summary (MCS) Scores at Week 100
    End point description
    SF-36 V2 is generic 36-item questionnaire measuring health-related quality of life (HRQL) covering 2 summary measures: PCS and MCS. SF-36 consists of 8 subscales (physical function, role limitations due to physical problems, pain, general health perception, vitality, social function, role limitations due to emotional problems, and mental health). Subjects self-report on items in a subscale that have between 2-6 choices per item using Likert-type responses (e.g. none of time, some of time, etc.). Summations of item scores of same subscale give subscale scores, which are transformed into a range from 0 to 100; zero= worst HRQL, 100=best HRQL. Higher scores indicate better health status. Part III analysis set included all subjects who were treated with guselkumab during Part IIb (Weeks 32 to 64) and entered Part III. Missing data was imputed using LOCF method.

    Part I/IIa: Percentage of Subjects with Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) (up to Week 32) as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability
    End point description
    An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical event that occurs in a subject administered an investigational product, and it does not necessarily indicate only events with clear causal relationship with the relevant investigational product. Treatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs) were defined as AEs that occurred during active treatment period through Week 32 after the start of initial study drug administration or AEs that were present at Baseline but worsened in severity after the start of initial study drug administration. Safety analysis set included all randomized subjects treated with at least 1 dose of study drug (guselkumab or FAE). Here N (number of subjects analysed) signifies number of subjects evaluable for this endpoint. Safety reported collectively for Part I and Part IIa (that is from Week 0 to Week 32) per planned analysis.
