Sedillo of River Valley Behavioral Health is the physician conducting the study of a new investigational drug. Those who qualify will be asked to take a study medication and make office visits for medical evaluations for six months. Research is ongoing on new investigational medications that may help psoriasis sufferers. Pedia Research is looking for people over the age of 21 who suffer from psoriasis. Dr. Artis P. Truett III, of Owensboro Dermatology, is the physician conducting the study. Those who qualify will be asked to take study medications for three months. Participants will need to make office visits for medical evaluations for six months.
