Filter by:Psoriatic Arthritis is an inflammatory condition that typically affects joints and soft tissues such as tendons. Poorly controlled or untreated psoriatic arthritis can lead to joint damage, disability and poor physical and mental wellbeing. Evidence suggests that early diagnosis and treatment of psoriatic arthritis can minimise adverse health outcomes. Musculoskeletal ultrasound has become an extremely useful tool in aiding rheumatologists to diagnose inflammatory joint conditions particularly at an early stage in the course of a disease. Psoriatic arthritis is known to affect up to 30% of patients with skin psoriasis. Therefore, national dermatology guidelines advise that patients with skin psoriasis should be asked about any joint symptoms at least every year. This study investigates whether skin psoriasis patients who are not on biologic treatment are indeed being asked about any joint symptoms and we subsequently invite patients for a musculoskeletal ultrasound scan to see if they have features of early psoriatic arthritis on ultrasound. Those who do are then invited for a thorough rheumatology clinical assessment.
The objective of this registry is to compare outcomes of risankizumab-exposed pregnancies with those of pregnancies that were not exposed to risankizumab among women with plaque psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis (PsA), Crohn's disease (CD), or other conditions for which risankizumab is an FDA-approved treatment. The registry is designed to estimate the association between risankizumab and maternal, fetal, and infant outcomes by comparing the prevalence rates of these outcomes in the exposed and unexposed populations. Approximately 818 female participants with pregnancy will be enrolled (409 participants exposed to risankizumab and 409 without exposure) at multiple sites across the United States. Participants will not receive risankizumab as part of this study. Maternal and fetal outcomes during pregnancy for female participants who received risankizumab or other treatment will be followed for and up to 1 year after delivery There may be a higher burden for participants in this study compared to standard of care. Participants will attend visits determined by HCPs during the study at a hospital or clinic. The pregnancy outcomes including side effects will be collected during routine clinical care.
Inflamed joints in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis are characterized by low oxygen levels and inflammation. We propose to investigate whether tiny bubbles (nanobubbles) when given in a drink can alter oxygen level in joints. These nanobubbles are so small that they can enter the bloodstream when given as a drink. This information will give new information on the role of oxygen in joint inflammation and could possibly lead to new treatment approaches in the future.
The research is being done to study the immune responses to COVID-19 vaccination in patients with rheumatic diseases.
This prospective, non-interventional, research registry is designed to study the comparative safety and comparative effectiveness of approved Jak Inhibitors treatment for RA-PsA-SpA in a cohort of patients and theirs controls cared for by rheumatologists across Latin América (LA).
The study will aim to estimate the efficacy of apremilast compared with placebo in the treatment of juvenile psoriatic arthritis (JPsA) in pediatric participants 5 to less than 18 years of age.
Inflammatory arthritis such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) are characterized by synovial inflammation of joints, potentially leading to joint destruction and functional disability. Inflamed joints have lower oxygen levels. Studying how oxygen level within the joint affect inflammation may lead to new treatments for patients with arthritis. Anti-inflammatory corticosteroid injection into the joint is well tolerated and widely used in clinical practice but its effects on oxygen level within joints is unknown. Therefore, patients who require corticosteroid injection into the joint as routine clinical care will have biological samples collected before and after the injection. This will give new information to put into context the biological effects within the joint, and accelerate development of new treatment approaches in the future.
Current increase in the number of multidisciplinary consultations, but little documentation on their impact on patient management. More specifically, in the context of psoriatic arthritis, we are seeking to investigate the interest for the patient, through his or her satisfaction and the evolution of the activity of his or her pathology, of a global, joint management in Rheumatology and Dermatology.
The purpose of this study is to assess the strength and duration of the immunological response to COVID-19 vaccines in patients treated with immunosuppressive and/or immunomodulating medication for immune-mediated inflammatory diseases in rheumatology and gastroenterology and after a liver transplantation.
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a type of arthritis (swelling and stiffness in the joints) that is frequently seen in trial participants who also have the skin condition psoriasis. It is caused by the body's immune system mistakenly attacking healthy joint tissue causing inflammation, joint damage, disability, and a reduced life expectancy. The main objective of this study is to characterize attainment of minimal disease activity (MDA) at week 24 under continuous treatment with upadacitinib in participants with oligo- or polyarticular PsA as part of real-world practice. Upadacitinib is a drug approved for the treatment of Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) in Germany and Canada. Approximately 380 adult participants with PsA at multiple sites in Germany and Canada. Participants will receive oral Upadacitinib tablets per current local label, according to local standard of care and international guidelines. There may be a higher burden for participants in this study compared to standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits per routine clinical practice. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, checking for side effects, and by questionnaire.
