6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.

The safety of ICOTYDE was evaluated in two placebo-controlled trials (Trial PSO-3 and Trial PSO-4) and two placebo- and active-controlled trials (Trial PSO-1 and Trial PSO-2) [see Clinical Studies (14) ] .

A total of 2367 adults and pediatric subjects 12 years of age and older who weigh at least 40 kg with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis received ICOTYDE 200 mg orally once daily.

Of these, 648 subjects were treated with ICOTYDE for at least one year.

Data from these four trials were pooled to evaluate the safety of ICOTYDE compared to placebo for 16 weeks.

Adverse Reactions Weeks 0 to 16 Table 1: Adverse Reactions that Occurred in ≥1% of Subjects in the ICOTYDE Group and More Frequently than in the Placebo Group in Trials PSO-1, PSO-2, PSO-3, and PSO-4 through Week 16 percentages based on Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel (CMH) adjusted proportions.

Two subjects experienced more than 1 event.

A relationship of this event to ICOTYDE is not established.

Adverse Reactions in Pediatric Subjects 12 Years of Age and Older The safety of ICOTYDE was evaluated in pediatric subjects 12 years of age and older who weigh at least 40 kg with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis in two placebo-controlled trials (Trial PSO-3 and Trial PSO-4).

A total of 72 pediatric subjects were treated with ICOTYDE 200 mg orally once daily.

Of these, 45 subjects were treated with ICOTYDE for at least one year.

The adverse reactions observed in pediatric subjects were consistent with the most common adverse reactions (≥ 1%) observed in the overall population.
