Head-to-head evidence
picankibart vs risankizumab
Same mechanism, same race: design-graded trial evidence for both assets, with the grading rationale shown. Grades describe the quality of the evidence, never the merits of either security.
Psoriasis

picankibart
Developed by Innovent Biologics
NCT05645627 · Phase 3 · completed
This was a randomized, quadruple-blind, placebo-controlled trial with 500 participants. The sponsor reports that picankibart met its co-primary endpoints, with 80.3% of picankibart patients reaching PASI90 (at least 90% skin clearance) at week 16, compared with 2.0% of placebo patients, a highly significant difference.
Caveat: this result is taken from a company announcement or a news report of one, not from the trial registry or a peer-reviewed publication. Treat the figures as the sponsor's own statement, not as independently verified evidence.
risankizumab · Skyrizi
Marketed by AbbVie
NCT02684370 · Phase 3 · completed
This randomized, triple-blind, placebo- and active-controlled trial used validated skin-clearance measures as its primary endpoints, and risankizumab achieved a highly statistically significant improvement over placebo on both: 75.3% vs 4.9% achieving PASI90, and 87.8% vs 7.8% achieving clear-or-almost-clear skin at Week 16.

picankibart
Developed by Innovent Biologics
NCT05377580 · Phase 2 · completed
This trial randomized 150 patients with moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis to picankibart at several doses or placebo under double-blind conditions, with clinical remission at Week 12 as the primary measure. Registry results were not posted at the time of grading; the key result shown was recovered from the cited external source.
Caveat: this result is taken from a company announcement or a news report of one, not from the trial registry or a peer-reviewed publication. Treat the figures as the sponsor's own statement, not as independently verified evidence.
risankizumab · Skyrizi
Marketed by AbbVie
NCT03398148 · Phase 2/3 · completed
Design meets the 'strong' test: randomized, double-blind (participant and investigator masked), placebo-controlled, large adequately powered sample (n=1555 treated), hard clinical/endoscopic composite endpoint (Adapted Mayo Score remission including endoscopic subscore), and the primary comparison was statistically significant in the favorable direction for all randomized dose arms in both substudies.
Next expected readout: August 2027 · NCT06880744 (registry estimate)
