TRANSIT - A Safety and Efficacy Study of Ustekinumab in Patients With Plaque Psoriasis Who Have Had an Inadequate Response to Methotrexate [Recruiting]
This purpose of this study is to assess the safety of ustekinumab in psoriasis patients who
receive ustekinumab following an inadequate response to methotrexate therapy. The study
will provide information for doctors on how to manage the transfer from methotrexate to the
biologic agent ustekinumab. The study is designed to compare two methods of transferring
patients from methotrexate to ustekinumab. The two methods being compared are
discontinuation of methotrexate with immediate initiation of ustekinumab versus initiation
of ustekinumab with overlap and gradual dose reduction of methotrexate over 4 weeks.
