We understand your stress and fear about psoriasis, and how debilitating this and other immune-mediated diseases can be. That’s why we’re fully committed to pursuing transformational treatments to help you and the millions of other sufferers around the world.
Our main focus is psoriasis, a chronic disease affecting the skin for which there is no cure.[1] The most common form of psoriasis is plaque psoriasis, which usually results in patches of thick, red or inflamed skin covered with silvery scales, which are called plaques.[2]
The unpredictable nature of these plaques means that many patients fear they will return even when their condition has been brought under control.
