Arm | Intervention/treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Group A
Patients with active stable plaque psoriasis treated with topical cream application on lesions involving a small percent BSA.
|
Drug: Ruxolitinib
Ruxolitinib 1.5% cream BID for 28 days
Other Name: INCB018424 |
Experimental: Group B
Patients with active stable plaque psoriasis treated with topical cream application on lesions involving a larger percent BSA than Cohort 1.
|
Drug: Ruxolitinib
Ruxolitinib 1.5% cream BID for 28 days
Other Name: INCB018424 |
Experimental: Group C
Patients with active stable plaque psoriasis treated with topical cream application on lesions involving a larger percent BSA than Cohort 2.
|
Drug: Ruxolitinib
Ruxolitinib 1.5% cream BID for 28 days
Other Name: INCB018424 |
- Safety and tolerability will be assessed by signs and symptoms of adverse experiences, measuring VS and ECGs, clinical laboratory blood and urine samples. The PK endpoints are planned to determine the ruxolitinib plasma concentrations. [ Time Frame: End of Study ]
- Pharmacodynamics and preliminary efficacy [ Time Frame: End of Study ]
