The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of deucravacitinib versus placebo for the treatment of participants with active PsA who are naïve to biologic disease modifying antirheumatic drugs or had previously received TNFα inhibitor treatment.The long term extension period will provide additional long-term safety and efficacy information.
Phase 3 trials are pivotal studies with large patient populations (hundreds to thousands) designed to prove efficacy and safety for FDA submission. A successful Phase 3 readout is typically the last major hurdle before a New Drug Application (NDA) or BLA filing.
Enrollment is complete. The trial is in its follow-up or data collection phase — a readout may occur on or near the primary completion date.
Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMY) is the sponsoring company for this trial. BiotechSign currently grades this company F (27/100) based on composite catalyst signals across its full pipeline. This trial is one data point in that overall catalyst picture.
