Tildrakizumab versus placebo or etanercept for chronic plaque psoriasis (reSURFACE 1 and reSURFACE 2): results from two randomised controlled, phase 3 trials.

Background: Tildrakizumab is a high-affinity, humanised, IgG1 κ antibody targeting interleukin 23 p19 that represents an evolving treatment strategy in chronic plaque psoriasis. Previous research suggested clinical improvement with inhibition of interleukin 23 p19. We did two phase 3 trials to investigate whether tildrakizumab is superior to placebo and etanercept in the treatment of chronic plaque psoriasis.

Analgesic efficacy of etoricoxib in primary dysmenorrhea: results of a randomized, controlled trial.

Objective: To determine the efficacy of etoricoxib in the treatment of primary dysmenorrhea.

Methods: Seventy-three women were randomly assigned to receive single oral doses of etoricoxib 120 mg, placebo, or naproxen sodium 550 mg at the onset of moderate to severe pain associated with menses. During 3 consecutive menstrual cycles in this double-blind, 3-period, crossover study, pain intensity and pain relief were assessed over the 24-hour period following dosing, and global ratings of therapy were made at 8 and 24 h after dosing.
