What is the primary intent of this medical experiment?

"This clinical trial, monitored over 16 weeks, aims to gauge the frequency of Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) from Week 0 until Week 16. Auxiliary objectives include: establishing the proportion of patients achieving 75% reduction in their Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI75), measuring changes in Short Form Health Survey - 36 items' (SF-36's) physical component score (PCS) at Week 16, and assessing the number of participants reaching American College of Rheumatology criteria ACR50 by week sixteen."

Answered by AI

What criteria must potential participants meet to be eligible for this research initiative?

"This clinical trial is accepting 195 participants who are between 18 and 75 years old, diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis for at least 6 months, present active signs of plaque psoriasis or nail changes related to psoriasis, have 3 swollen joints and 3 tender joints upon screening as well as day one. Women must not be able to conceive or use highly effective contraception during the study and 30 days after the last dose while men in relationships with women capable of becoming pregnant must wear condoms throughout the duration of the experiment plus an additional 90 days following their final dose."
