• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2019-09-25

Summary

This will be a single-center, randomized, double-blinded, vehicle-controlled clinical study to determine the efficacy of Enstilar® foam, a combination of calcipotriene and betamethasone dipropionate 0.005%/0.064%, in the treatment of psoriasis vulgaris in skin of color (FST IV-VI).
