Primary AnalysisWeek 12 (Day 84)
Placebo (n = 187)
Raptiva 1 mg/kg (n = 369)
Entrance criteria• Plaque psoriasis ≥ 6 months• BSA ≥ 10%• PASI ≥ 12• Candidate for, or history of, systemic therapy
5C-EFF-
Study 2390: Primary Efficacy Variable, the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index
• Physician-performed assessment • Extent of psoriasis and the degree of plaque
erythema, thickness, and scaling• Index ranges from 0 to 72, higher scores worse
Primary analysis based on rate of PASI-75 response
• PASI-75 responder: A patient with a PASI percent improvement from baseline of ≥ 75%
• PASI-75 nonresponder: A patient with a PASI percent improvement from baseline of < 75%
6C-EFF-
Study 2390: Secondary Efficacy Endpoints
• Physician-derived assessments– PASI-50– PASI % improvement from baseline– Physician’s Global Assessments as given in
briefing book• Patient-reported assessments
– DLQI: Dermatology Life Quality Index• 10 items, each rated 0=Not at All, 1=A Little,
2=A Lot, 3=Very Much, or Not Relevant – Others as given in briefing book
