Brief Summary  

·         This will be a Randomized, multicenter, double-blind, parallel group, three-arm, placebo-controlled trial with primary objective to determine the bioequivalence (with clinical endpoint) of Mylan’s Tapinarof cream, 1% with the reference listed drug, VTAMA (Tapinarof 1%, Dermavant Sciences Inc.), and superiority of the Test and RLD with placebo.

·         Sample size of the study will be approximately 450 participants; male or non-pregnant, non-lactating females aged between 18 to 75 years with a clinical diagnosis of stable (at least 6 months) plaque psoriasis involving 3 to 20% body surface area (BSA), not including the face, scalp, groin, palms, and soles in the BSA calculation for a period of 16 weeks.

·         Participants will receive either Mylan’s Tapinarof Cream (n = 180), RLD (VTAMA cream 1%; n = 180) or Placebo (n = 90), once daily for 84 days (12 weeks). Participants will take the trial drug home and self-administer trial drug or have caregiver apply, if necessary, to affected areas once daily. At clinic visits, trial drug will be applied after safety and efficacy assessments have been conducted.

·         At each contact with the participant, the investigator will seek information on adverse events by different safety assessments like physical examination, vital signs and clinical laboratory investigations etc.

·         Telephonic follow-ups are scheduled between visits to assess AEs and concomitant medications, to review trial drug application procedures, and to confirm participant’s continued participation in the trial.

End of the Study (EOS) and Follow-up safety assessment will be done two weeks post last dose of trial treatment received during the randomized treatment period.
