  • The improvement of psoriasis

    The severity of psoriasis will be graded with modified PASI score, and the improvement will be assessed as % from baseline by using a computer program.

    Baseline, 1 week, 2 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • The adverse effects of microneedle patch

    Baseline, 1 week, 2 weeks

Study Arms (3)

Control group

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

All lesions were treated with topical calcipotriol - betamethasone dipropionate ointment only.

Other: Control

Patch group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

All lesions were treated with topical calcipotriol - betamethasone dipropionate ointment with patches.

Device: Patch

Microneedle patch group

EXPERIMENTAL

All lesions were treated with topical calcipotriol - betamethasone dipropionate ointment with microneedle HA patches.

Device: Microneedle HA patch

Interventions

The microneedle HA patch were made of hyaluronic acid with microneedles which can enhance the drug permeation. All lesions were treated with topical calcipotriol - betamethasone dipropionate ointment with microneedle HA patches. Microneedle HA patch (Therapass®, RMD-6.5A) was prepared at Raphas Co., Ltd. (Cheonan, South Korea). Daivobet® containing the active ingredients calcipotriol - betamethasone dipropionate was applied.

Microneedle patch group
PatchDEVICE

The patch were made of hyaluronic acid with no microneedles to rule out the occlusion effect of microneedle HA patch. All lesions were treated with topical calcipotriol - betamethasone dipropionate ointment with patches. Daivobet® containing the active ingredients calcipotriol - betamethasone dipropionate was applied. The hyaluronic acid patch was prepared at Raphas Co., Ltd. (Cheonan, South Korea) for this clinical trial, not for sale.
