What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Primary efficacy endpoint

    The primary efficacy endpoint was percentage change from baseline in Palmoplantar Pustular Area and Severity Index (PPPASI) at W16.

    Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 16 weeks

Secondary outcomes

  1. Effect of Deucravacitinib on overall severity of palmoplantar pustulosis

    Mean change in erythema and pustules from Baseline to week 16 will be evaluated by Palmoplantar Pustular Physician's Global Assessment (PPPGA).

    Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 16 weeks

  2. Effect of Deucravacitinib on quality of life: Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI)

    Mean change in quality of life from Baseline to week 16 will be evaluated by Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI)

    Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 16 weeks

Other outcomes

  1. Tolerability of Deucravacitinib in patients with palmoplantar pustulosis

    To evaluate the tolerability of Deucravacitinib in patients with palmoplantar pustulosis through assessment of adverse events at every visit from Baseline to week 4, 8,12, 16.

    Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 16 weeks
