Interventions

  • Guselkumab — DRUG
    Guselkumab 100 mg 1 mL liquid formulation in a single-dose pre-filled syringe administered by subcutaneous injection at Week 0, Week 4 and every 8 weeks thereafter (month 0 to month 24 for arm 1; week 24 to month 24 for arm 2).
  • Placebo — DRUG
    • Placebo to Guselkumab 1 mL liquid formulation in a single-dose pre-filled syringe administered by subcutaneous injection at Week 0, Week 4 and every 8 weeks thereafter (Month 0 to Week 20 for Arm 2).

Study Details

This is a multi-center (North-America), randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, wait-list, interventional, preventive trial of guselkumab in high-risk psoriasis patients compared to non-biologic standard of care. The primary objective of the proposed trial will be to test the hypothesis that a prolonged, unresolved skin inflammation coupled with musculoskeletal power-doppler ultrasound (MSKPDUS) abnormalities driven by IL-23 increase the risk for transition into PsA and that an intervention that targets one of these pivotal molecules (i.e., Guselkumab) will: 1. Diminish MSKPDUS findings at 24 weeks, and 2. Significantly reduce or prevent the emergence of synovio-enthesial phenotype at year 2.

Arms

  • Experimental: Guselkumab + Topicals (GUS)
  • Placebo Comparator: Placebo + Topicals (PBO)
  • No Intervention: Standard-of-Care Therapy (SOC)
    In this third, non-randomized arm, patients would continue treatment with topical therapy or UVB, as part of our ongoing natural history of disease registries. This arm will include participants fulfilling RM-PsASon criteria but also those that do not (to serve as "negative" controls).

Primary Outcome Measure

Change in Musculoskeletal, Power Doppler Ultrasound (MSK-PDUS) Composite Score [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 24 ]
