Background summary
Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease in which proinflammatory protein mediators,
released by skin cells and infiltrating cells, cause an abnormal cell division
and differentiation. It may be possible to treat psoriasis using drugs aimed at
preventing the synthesis of such mediators.
Study objective
The aim of the project is to study the effect of JW 1-3 test compounds on
typical skin features of psoriasis. This information can establish the most
effective compound, right formulation and dose for further clinical research.
Study design
Non-lesional skin biopsies of 6 mm in diameter will be treated with JW 1-3 test
compounds using the transplant model of psoriasis. By measuring the effect on
typical psoriasis skin features, it is possible to establish the most effective
compound, the right formulation and dose for further clinical research.
Study burden and risks
The health risks associated with taking blood & skin biopsies are small. It is
possible to obtain a slight scar formation and/or discolouration at the site of
the biopsy punch.
