Study design details

Main study objective

To compare the proportion of patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis treated in clinical practice with ixekizumab or secukinumab (the anti IL 17A cohort) relative to other biologic treatments who achieve clear or almost clear skin (equivalent to PASI 90 or higher and/or sPGA 0/1) at 12±4 weeks following initiation of or switching to a new biologic

Outcomes

PASI, sPGA, BSA, DLQI

Data analysis plan

Logistic regression will be used to analyze the proportions of the primary endpoint for assigned anti IL 17A and other biologic treatments. In addition to the treatment groups, the propensity scores derived during baseline interim analyses will be included as covariates into the model.
