They must not have severe depression, active infections, inflammatory bowel disease, fibromyalgia, other types of arthritis diagnosed before age 17, uncontrolled diseases, TB or fungal infections in recent chest x-rays, HIV positive status or a history of cancer within the last five years.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing Izokibep's effectiveness for treating psoriatic arthritis compared to a placebo. Izokibep is designed to block interleukin (IL)-17A which plays a role in inflammation and is believed to contribute to PsA symptoms.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions related to immune system suppression such as increased risk of infection. Specific side effects are not listed but could be similar to those seen with other IL-17A inhibitors like injection site reactions or allergic responses.
