Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults with diagnosed plaque psoriasis with mild-to-moderate disease suitable for topical therapy (targeting ≤2%–10% body surface area).
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with non-plaque psoriasis, extensive disease requiring systemic therapy, or prior intolerance to similar topical treatments may not benefit.

What this trial studies
This prospective interventional study will evaluate the safety and potential benefit of a topical XJH05 ointment in adults with mild-to-moderate plaque psoriasis. Participants will apply XJH05 or a calcipotriol ointment to affected skin, with outcomes focused on symptom changes and local tolerance. The investigation builds on preclinical data suggesting the XJH05 compound disrupts a signaling axis involved in skin inflammation and keratinocyte growth. Recruitment is limited to sites at Xijing Hospital in Xi’an, China, and follows standard topical-therapy washout and safety monitoring protocols.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, participants may experience improved skin plaques and reduced itching with a topical treatment.
How similar studies have gone: Previous topical agents have shown benefit in psoriasis; this study investigates a novel small-molecule ointment with preclinical signals of activity.
