Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effect of a high-intensity Mediterranean diet intervention over 16 weeks in a group of patients with mild to moderate psoriasis in terms of skin improvement as measured by PASI. In addition, the aim of this study will be to gather the necessary information for a larger and more extended clinical trial in the future. Participants will be provided with dietary education for the implementation of the Mediterranean diet, supported by a monthly follow-up by nutritionists with experience in the field. Researchers will compare the effect of the Mediterranean diet on these patients to a control group provided with standard recommendations for a low-fat diet with no monitoring by nutritionists.
The main objective of this study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of si-544. Other objectives are to study the metabolism of si-544 in the body and to assess the effects of si-544 on cells of the body's immune system (immune cells) that have been chronically activated by the disease. Likewise, the effect of si-544 on inflammatory responses in the body triggered by the disease and other disease symptoms will be investigated.
This study aims to assess the effect of adding N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) alone or in combination with Vitamin E to conventional therapy in improving the clinical outcome, oxidative stress, and inflammation in patients with mild psoriasis vulgaris
Psoriasis presents an independent cardiovascular risk factor characterized by chronic low-grade systemic inflammation and oxidative stress which altogether might lead to endothelial dysfunction. It has been reported that increased oxidative stress has a pivotal role in high dietary sodium-induced endothelial dysfunction. Previous studies on sodium accumulation in psoriatic skin lesions and the sodium-induced augmentation in Th17 immune response, raise the question on the complex interplay between sodium and psoriasis, especially in the context of cardiovascular morbidity. This study aimed to investigate the effect of a 2-week low-salt diet on endothelium-dependent and endothelium-independent cutaneous microvascular vasodilation and Th17-Mediated Inflammation in patients with psoriasis vulgaris.
The METRED-P study will test the feasibility of implementing a Mediterranean style diet and/or time-restricted eating as dietary patterns in individuals with psoriasis. This study will address the following research questions: 1. Are participants' able to adhere to the allocated dietary intervention? 2. What is the participants' acceptability of the allocated dietary intervention? 3. What is the practicality (from a clinician's stand point) of delivering the dietary interventions? 4. When adhering to the allocated intervention, are there changes in psoriasis severity? 5. When adhering to the allocated intervention, are there changes in measures of body composition? 6. When adhering to the allocated intervention, are there changes in fasting blood measures? Participants will attend an initial clinic visit for a fasting blood sample, psoriasis examination, body composition measurements, and will complete short multiple-choice questionnaires on the severity of their psoriasis. A Research Nutritionist will deliver the diet interventions as diet consultation sessions. These sessions are reoccurring throughout the study as virtual consultation booster sessions, which are supplemented with wellbeing check-in calls. Participants will complete short questionnaires on the severity of their psoriasis and will record their dietary intake for 4 days, before the start of the study, and on week 1, week 6, and week 12 of the study. The allocated diet should be adhered to for 12 weeks until the end of the study, where participants will return and attend a final clinic visit to repeat the measures obtained during the initial clinic visit. Researchers will compare the feasibility of implementing a Mediterranean style diet and a Mediterranean style diet with time-restricted eating, with a UK diet with time-restricted eating.
Biologics such as risankizumab are currently the most effective treatment option for patients with moderate to severe psoriasis. But they are costly for healthcare systems and still described according to a 'one dose fits all' dosing regimen, leading to potential over-and undertreatment. In this study the investigators aim to investigate the predictive value of early serum trough levels of risankizumab and determine the therapeutic window of risankizumab in psoriasis patients.
Biologics such as tildrakizumab are currently the most effective treatment option for patients with moderate to severe psoriasis. But they are costly for healthcare systems and still described according to a 'one dose fits all' dosing regimen, leading to potential over-and undertreatment. In this study, the investigators aim to investigate the predictive value of early serum trough levels of tildrakizumab and determine the therapeutic window of tildrakizumab in psoriasis patients.
We are conducting a proof-of-concept trial to study the impact of HRV-biofeedback, a mind-body technique designed to improve stress resilience, on the quality of life, mood, and clinical skin severity of patients with psoriasis.
To evaluate SGX302 (topical hypericin ointment) with visible light in an initial 18-week treatment course for improving lesions in patients with mild-to-moderate psoriasis.
This study aims to assess cutaneous and blood immune cell function of patients with psoriasis before and after initiation of treatment with the IL23 blocker, tildrakizumab.
