Filter by:Background: Time-restricted feeding (TRF) means that a person eats only during certain hours of the day. In other studies, researchers have found that fasting can improve immune system function in healthy people. They want to see if TRF has the same effect on people with psoriasis. Objective: To test whether TRF can change metabolism and decrease some markers of inflammation in the blood of people with mild to moderate psoriasis. Eligibility: Males ages 18 to 80 with mild to moderate active psoriasis, and healthy volunteers Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history and medicine review. They will have a physical exam and blood tests. Their skin will be examined. They will have a nutritional evaluation. Their resting energy expenditure will be measured. For this, a clear plastic ventilation hood will be placed over the head for a short time. Participants will stay at the NIH Clinical Center for 4 1/2 days. They can watch TV, do work, do schoolwork, and other quiet activities. A small sensor will be placed under participants skin to measure blood glucose. For part of the study, participants will be housed in a small room called a metabolic chamber. They will wear a heart monitor. Participants will walk on a treadmill for 30 minutes each day at a comfortable speed. For 3 days, participants will eat all their daily calories between 8 am and 2 pm. They will fast for the other 18 hours of the day. They can drink water. Participants will complete mixed meal tests. They will drink a liquid meal for breakfast. Then they will give blood samples via intravenous (IV) catheter. Participation will last for 5 days....
Approximately 80 patients affected by moderate to severe psoriasis will be screened for the presence of LL37( and ADAMTSL5 autoreactive T-cells in their blood at Day 0. Patients whose lymphocytes reacted with proliferation to LL37 or ADAMTSL5 will receive SKYRIZI (Risakizumab) at Day 1, week 4, 16, 28, 40. LL37 and ADAMTSL5-specific T-cell responses will be evaluated at Day 0, week 16, week 28 and week 52. Each patient will be followed for 52 weeks.
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease with a multi-factorial etiology which affects the epidermis and dermis. It affects around 1-3% of the general population and its most frequent form is plaque psoriasis (around 80-90% of the overall psoriasis cases). Psoriasis severity and extension are usually measured through 2 scores: Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) and Body Surface Area (BSA). Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease mediated by the biofilm and with a multi-factorial etiology. Its manifestation entails the destruction of the periodontal tissues surrounding the teeth; the final stage of disease is characterised by tooth loss. Periodontitis severity and extension are usually evaluated through surrogate variables such as: BoP (Bleeding on Probing), PPD (Probing Pocket Depth) e REC (Recession). Both diseases present overlapping genetic and pathophysiologic features, as well as common risk factors (e.g. genetic polymorphisms, smoking habit, obesity, diabetes etc.). miRNAs are small non-coding molecules involved in the regulation of various biologic processes thanks to their interaction with mRNAs. Active inflammatory processes either in the oral cavity or at a systemic level tend to alter the concentration of salivary miRNAs. No study so far has ever profiled the levels of specific salivary miRNAs in patients with psoriasis and periodontitis. Some case-control studies highlighted a higher prevalence of periodontitis in patients with psoriasis when compared to healthy controls. Nonetheless, epidemiological data regarding periodontitis prevalence in patients with psoriasis are lacking; moreover, few data are available regarding the relationship between the severity of psoriasis and the severity of periodontitis, together with the effect of common risk factors (e.g. diet, obesity, physical activity, sleep quality etc.).
The purpose of this research study is to examine the effect of Duobrii® (halobetasol propionate 0.01%/tazarotene 0.045% lotion, HP/TAZ) on plaque type psoriasis of the hands and/or feet.
The purpose of the study is to assess th pharmacokinetics (PK) of bimekizumab administered subcutaneously (sc) in adolescents with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis (PSO).
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of a biologic drug targeting the Interleukin (IL)-17 pathway (secukinumab) on brain plasticity and examine whether the plastic changes correlate with the improvement of perception of well-being, itch, and pain in participants with psoriasis.
Plaque Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease in which skin cells build up and develop scaly red and white patches on the skin. It is caused by an overactive immune system where the body attacks healthy tissue by mistake. Palmoplantar (non-pustular) plaque psoriasis (PPPsO) represents a localized form of psoriasis in palms and soles. This study will evaluate how safe risankizumab is for the treatment of plaque psoriasis with palmoplantar involvement and to assess change in disease symptoms. Risankizumab is an approved drug for the treatment of psoriasis. Study doctors put the participants in 1 of 2 groups, called treatment arms. Each group receives a different treatment. There is a 1 in 2 chance that participants will be assigned to placebo in Period A. In Period B, all the participants will receive risankizumab. Around 168 adult participants with a moderate to severe plaque psoriasis will be enrolled in approximately 55 sites across the world. Participants will receive single subcutaneous (administered under the skin) risankizumab or placebo in period A (16 weeks). In period B (36 weeks), all participants will receive subcutaneous risankizumab once every 12 weeks. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
It is a randomized, double-blinded, single-dose, 3-arm parallel, comparative study to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety and immunogenicity of BAT2306 Injection vs Cosentyx® (EU-licensed and US-licensed) in healthy Chinese male subjects. A total of 216 healthy male subjects are planned to be included and randomized at a ratio of 1:1:1 to receive single 150mg BAT2306 Injection or Cosentyx® (EU-licensed and US-licensed).
This study evaluates the fingernail findings of the rheumatoid arthritis, spondylopathy and psoriatic arthritis patient groups with the fingernails of psoriasis patients clinically and dermatoscopically and investigates the benefit of dermoscopy in the differentiation of these patients.
Hashimoto's disease (HT) and psoriasis (PsO) have a significant impact on patient's quality of everyday life, and early diagnosis is critical for the symptoms management and prognosis. There is evidence that HT and PsO share common metabolic pathways that relate to their pathogenesis, and are affected by dietary and lifestyle factors. Previous studies have identified potential metabolic biomarkers, although the small number of studies hamper their validation. Of note, most studies are not longitudinal thus do not capture the metabolic fluctuations in response to disease progression or dietary changes. Thus, the purpose of this study is to identify metabolic biomarkers of HT and PsO and study the role of epigenetic factors (diet and lifestyle) on the involved metabolic pathways . In addition, a comparative analysis of the disease-related quality of life (QoL) will be performed in relation to dietary changes to unravel possible links between the QoL and the associated metabolic pathways in HT and PsO.
