Psoriasis is a chronic skin condition that can have a significant impact on patient's physical and mental well being. The most common form of psoriasis is plaque psoriasis. Targeted treatments in psoriasis have been reported recently, yet cyclosporine, a calcineurin inhibitor (CNi) remains one of the treatments which has the greatest efficacy. Voclosporin represents the possibility of a calcineurin inhibitor which is not only as efficacious as cyclosporine A, but also has an improved toxicity profile.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of voclosporin in patients with plaque psoriasis.
