Full Description

This is a single-center, double-blind study. Approximately 30 qualified subjects will be enrolled into a 8 weeks study.

The study drugs that will be used in this study are Lexette® (0.05% Halobetasol propionate foam) and Sorilux® (calcipotriene foam). Both Lexette and Sorilux are approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat psoriasis.

Subjects will be randomized to study treatment at a 1:1 ratio: of Lexette plus Sorilux for 2 weeks versus Lexette plus vehicle for 2 weeks. Those subjects who are clear or almost clear at the end of 2 weeks will be re-randomized into Sorilux for 6 weeks versus vehicle for 6 weeks at 1:1 ratio.

Subjects will attend a Screening Visit/Baseline visit and if found eligible will be randomized to study treatment. Total study period is 8 weeks. Study visits will be, screening/baseline, week 2 and week 8. Study assessments will be at each visit: BSA, PGA, Itch VAS, DLQI, and TLSS in addition to standard medical assessments. There will be a standard prohibited medication/treatment and washout periods.
