A Randomised, Multicentre, Investigator-Blind, Parallel-Group Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of MC2-01 Cream Compared to Vehicle and Active Comparator in Subjects With Mild-to-Moderate Psoriasis Vulgaris

This trial is a randomized, investigator-blind, multicentre, vehicle- and comparator-controlled, parallel-group trial with the purpose of evaluating the efficacy, safety and convenience of the MC2-01 cream.

The MC2-01 Cream is designed for optimal patient satisfaction - it quickly absorbs into the skin leaving it nicely moisturized allowing patients to move on in daily routines. In this trial, the MC2-01 cream will be compared to a marketed product CAL/BDP combination and vehicle. The purpose of the trial is to compare the clinical efficacy, safety, and convenience of this cream to the marketed product. The trial will include a 8-week treatment period.
