Description

Brodalumab is an anti-interleukin 17 receptor A antibody (IL-17RA) and blocks the inflammatory effects of different IL-17 cytokines (IL-17A, IL-17C, IL-17F, IL-17A/F heterodimer, and IL-17E) in the skin.

Brodalumab is an anti-interleukin 17 receptor A antibody (IL-17RA) and blocks the inflammatory effects of different IL-17 cytokines (IL-17A, IL-17C, IL-17F, IL-17A/F heterodimer, and IL-17E) in the skin. With increasing availability of novel biologics with new targets, the complexity of choosing the appropriate biologic treatment is ever more challenging for physicians. Therefore, the primary objective of this trial is to compare the efficacy of brodalumab versus guselkumab in adult participants with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis and inadequate response to ustekinumab, thereby providing new scientific information that could support decision making in the clinical setting. The study will run approximately 32 weeks for each participant (including a 2- to 4-weeks screening period and a 28-week treatment period), with the primary endpoint measurement at Week 16. Participants receive subcutaneous injections of brodalumab or guselkumab. Dummy injections are also given, so participants, assessors, and investigators are unaware of which treatment is given.
