Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Percentage of Participants Achieving a Static Physician's Global Assessment (sPGA) of Clear (0) or Almost Clear (1) With a ≥2-Point Decrease from Baseline at Week 16 Comparing TAK-279 Against Placebo | Baseline, Week 16 | The sPGA is a 5-point scale of an average assessment of all psoriatic lesions based on erythema, scaling, and induration. The average of the 3 scales, rounded to the nearest whole number, is the final sPGA score. The sPGA score ranges from 0 to 4 (0 = Clear; 1 = Almost clear; 2 = Mild; 3 = Moderate; 4 = Severe). Higher scores indicate more severe disease activity. 'Clear' and 'Almost clear' will include all participants who score a 0 or 1. |
| Primary | Percentage of Participants Achieving ≥75% Improvement from Baseline in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) Score at Week 16 Comparing TAK-279 Against Placebo | Baseline, Week 16 | PASI is a measure of the average redness, thickness, and scaliness of psoriatic skin lesions (each graded on a 0 to 4 scale; 0 = none to 4 = very severe), weighted by the area of involvement (head, upper extremities, trunk, and lower extremities). The PASI produces a numeric score that can range from 0 to 72, with higher PASI scores denoting more severe disease activity. Percentage of participants showing at least 75% improvement in PASI score relative to baseline PASI score will be reported. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants Achieving 90% Improvement from Baseline in PASI (PASI-90) at Week 16 Comparing TAK-279 Against Placebo | Baseline, Week 16 | PASI is a measure of the average redness, thickness, and scaliness of psoriatic skin lesions (each graded on a 0 to 4 scale; 0 = none to 4 = very severe), weighted by the area of involvement (head, upper extremities, trunk, and lower extremities). The PASI produces a numeric score that can range from 0 to 72, with higher PASI scores denoting more severe disease activity. Percentage of participants showing at least 90% improvement in PASI score relative to baseline PASI score will be reported. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants Achieving an sPGA of Clear (0) at Week 16 Comparing TAK-279 Against Placebo | Week 16 | The sPGA is a 5-point scale of an average assessment of all psoriatic lesions based on erythema, scaling, and induration. The average of the 3 scales, rounded to the nearest whole number, is the final sPGA score. The sPGA score ranges from 0 to 4 (0 = Clear; 1 = Almost clear; 2 = Mild; 3 = Moderate; 4 = Severe). Higher scores indicate more severe disease activity. Higher scores indicate worsening. 'Clear' will include all participants who score a 0. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants Achieving PASI-100 at Week 16 Comparing TAK-279 Against Placebo | Week 16 | PASI is a measure of the average redness, thickness, and scaliness of psoriatic skin lesions (each graded on a 0 to 4 scale; 0 = none to 4 = very severe), weighted by the area of involvement (head, upper extremities, trunk, and lower extremities). The PASI produces a numeric score that can range from 0 to 72, with higher PASI scores denoting more severe disease activity. Percentage of participants showing 100% improvement in PASI score relative to baseline PASI score will be reported. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants Achieving a Scalp-specific Physician's Global Assessment (ssPGA) of Clear (0) or Almost Clear (1) With a ≥2-Point Decrease from Baseline at Week 16 Comparing TAK-279 Against Placebo | Baseline, Week 16 | ssPGA assesses the overall severity of active psoriasis on the participant's scalp. Scalp lesions will be evaluated in terms of clinical signs of erythema, induration, and scaling and scored on 5-point ssPGA scale where 0=absence of disease and 4=severe disease. Higher scores indicate worsening. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants Achieving PASI-75 at Week 4 Comparing TAK-279 Against Placebo | Week 4 | PASI is a measure of the average redness, thickness, and scaliness of psoriatic skin lesions (each graded on a 0 to 4 scale; 0 = none to 4 = very severe), weighted by the area of involvement (head, upper extremities, trunk, and lower extremities). The PASI produces a numeric score that can range from 0 to 72, with higher PASI scores denoting more severe disease activity. Percentage of participants showing 75% improvement in PASI score relative to baseline PASI score will be reported. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants with a Baseline Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) Score ≥2 who Achieve DLQI Score of 0 or 1 at Week 16 Comparing TAK-279 Against Placebo | Week 16 | The DLQI is a 10-item validated questionnaire completed by the participant or caregiver used to assess the impact of skin disease on the participant's quality of life (QoL) during the previous week. The 10 questions cover the following topics: symptoms, embarrassment, shopping and home care, clothes, social and leisure, sport, work or study, close relationships, sex, and treatment. Each question is scored from 0=not at all, 1=a little, 2=a lot, and 3=very much, giving a total score ranging from 0 to 30. A high score is indicative of a poor QoL. DLQI scores indicate: 0-1 (no effect on participant's life), 2-5 (small effect on participant's life), 6-10 (moderate effect on participant's life), 11-20 (very large effect on participant's life), 21-30 (extremely large effect on participant's life). |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With a Baseline Psoriasis Symptoms and Signs Diary (PSSD) ≥1 who Achieve Weekly Mean PSSD Symptom Score of 0 at Week 16 Comparing TAK-279 Against Placebo | Week 16 | The PSSD is an 11-item validated questionnaire that assesses symptoms (itch, pain, stinging, burning, and skin tightness) and participant-observable signs (skin dryness, cracking, scaling, shedding/flaking, redness, and bleeding) of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. These symptoms and signs will be evaluated by asking participants to assign a numerical score representing of worst intensity over the last 24-hour on a scale from 0 to 10, with 0 indicating absence of symptoms or signs and 10 indicating worst imaginable symptoms or signs. The PSSD is a composite score calculated based on the scores for each question that can range between 0 and 100. A higher score indicates more severe disease. |
| Secondary | Change from Baseline in Nail Psoriasis Severity Index (NAPSI) at Week 16 Among Participants With Nail Involvement at Baseline Comparing TAK-279 Against Placebo | Baseline, Week 16 | The NAPSI quantifies severity of nail psoriasis by evaluating the presence or absence of psoriatic manifestations on the nail matrix (pitting, leukonychia, red spots on lunula, crumbling) and nail bed (onycholysis, splinter hemorrhages, subungual hyperkeratosis, oil drop \[salmon patch dyschromia\]). Each nail will be scored for both nail matrix and nail bed psoriasis for each quadrant (ranging from 0 \[absence of psoriasis\] to 4 \[presence of psoriasis in all 4 quadrants\]). The total NAPSI score equals the sum of scores for all of the finger nails evaluated and ranges from 0 to 80. Higher scores indicate more severe psoriasis. |
