Filter by:HIPPOCRATES is an Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI) funded EU Consortium established to address key unmet clinical needs in psoriatic disease. As part of the project, the HIPPOCRATES Prospective Observational Study (HPOS) is a study of patients with psoriasis which will run across Europe. The study will be led by a research team at University of Oxford and supported by a team at University College Dublin. We are aiming to identify people with psoriasis who are at risk of developing psoriatic arthritis. Up to one-third of patients with psoriasis will develop a related arthritis causing inflammation in the joints and tendons. We want to identify which patients will develop arthritis with the long-term and ambitious aim of trying to prevent the development of arthritis before it occurs. We are recruiting/approaching adults with psoriasis and asking study participants to complete questionnaires every 6 months via a dedicated study website. The questionnaires will include a 'screening questionnaire' to try to identify arthritis. If participants are identified by the 'screening questionnaire' as having possible arthritis, they will be advised to seek local medical help. We will follow up with them to see if they are diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis. Alongside the questionnaire information from participants, we will ask some participants to provide a blood fingerprick sample using an easy to use at home sampling kit. The blood sample will be posted to a central location (University College Dublin) where it will be stored and then studied in the laboratory to look for markers that may predict the onset of arthritis. As many (most) participants will not develop arthritis, we are also studying the impact of psoriasis on the participants to learn more about how psoriasis affects people's daily lives across Europe.
A randomized controlled study comparing brief dietary intervention with a personal, tailored dietary advice (60 min) on change in LDL-c and change in diet.
Different classes of biological targeted therapies (b-DMARDs) are available for psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and seronegative rheumatoid arthritis (RA) (TNF inhibitors, anti-IL23, anti-IL17). A variable percentage of subjects, however, does not respond the first b-DMARD. Musculoskeletal ultrasound (US) and synovial tissue analysis could provide useful information on the top of clinical variables to predict response. The primary aim of this project is to create a global single-cell RNA sequencing atlas of PsA synovitis and to evaluate the predictive value of clinical, US and synovial variables (inflammatory cells and synovial tissue-single cell signature) on disease trajectory outcome and treatment response. Patients with PsA or seronegative RA at different disease stages will be enrolled. Clinical and US examination will be performed at baseline, 3, 6 and 12 months, while synovial biopsy at baseline and 6 months. The optimal combination of clinical, US and synovial variables to stratify treatment response will be developed. The sensitivity to change of US and synovial variables and their evaluation in patients achieving clinical remission will also be considered as secondary aims. The expected results will help the optimisation of treatment strategies in patients with PsA and seronegative RA.
Social determinants of health (SDoH), defined by the World Health Organization as "the conditions in which people are born, grow, work, live and age and the wider set of forces and systems shaping the conditions of daily life" are estimated to be responsible for nearly 90 percent of a person's health outcomes. SDoH are key contributors to racial, ethnic and socioeconomic disparities in care healthcare access and health outcomes. The goal of this clinical trial is to identify patients with inflammatory arthritis or with a systemic rheumatic condition with arthritis who may respond to the simplest and least expensive intervention to address their SDoH-related needs- a tailored list of resources, those who benefit from a community-based resource specialist to help address specific needs, and those who require a nurse-trained navigator to help both coordinate the services provided by the community-based specialist, and their medical and mental health care and needs. The main questions the clinical trial aims to answer are: 1. To test the efficacy of a rheumatology clinic-based nurse navigator and community resource specialist to reduce appointment no-shows and same-day cancellations in patients with systemic rheumatic conditions with arthritis. 2. To examine the cost-effectiveness of each of the different study interventions for individuals with systemic rheumatic conditions with arthritis with SDoH-related needs using questionnaires and cost-related care metrics. Participants will be randomly assigned to 1 of 3 arms. In Arm 1, patients will receive a cultivated list of resources related to the needs that patients indicate on the social determinants of health questionnaire. Arm 1 is the control arm which receives the current standard of care. In Arm 2, patients will receive the assistance of a community resource specialist (CRS) - an individual without formal medical training with community-based expertise. In Arm 3, patients will receive the assistance of a nurse patient navigator with additional systemic rheumatic condition-specific training who will work with the CRS. After 6 months, patients who do not respond to Arm 1 will move to Arm 2. Patients who do not respond to Arm 2, will move to Arm 3. Patients who do not respond to Arm 3 will remain in Arm 3. Patients who respond to any arm will graduate the program at 6 months. The patients who do not respond be in their new arm for 6 months. At 12 months, all patients remaining in the study will graduate.
68Ga-FAPI has been developed as a tumor-targeting agent as fibroblast activation protein is overexpressed in cancer-associated fibroblasts and some inflammation, such as IgG4-related disease. Therefore, this prospective study is going to investigate whether 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT may be superior for disease activity assessment and follow-up of psoriatic arthritis than 18F-NAF PET/CT.
The trial is a double-blinded randomized study that will examine whether switching to a selective IL23 inhibitor (guselkumab) is more effective than switching to a second TNFi (golimumab) among patients with PsA who have an inadequate response to a TNFi.
Patients diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) confront decisions about how to treat their disease, interact with their health care providers, and modify lifestyle choices that may improve treatment outcomes. With sponsorship support from Janssen and in partnership with the Cleveland Clinic, this survey study will seek to understand and examine whether people living with PsA are interested in and motivated to participate in wellness activities. This cross-sectional observational survey study will help researchers and clinicians to better understand what some of the barriers and facilitators experienced by patients are when considering participation in guided online wellness activities. People that qualify for the study and complete a 10-minute survey will be invited to participate in Immune Strength, an online wellness program developed by the Cleveland Clinic. Immune Strength is a free 10-week program for creating better habits for a more resilient immune system. By following this program, participants will have the opportunity to learn about how to develop strategies and implement behavior changes for healthier immune functioning. Participants will be recruited by the Global Healthy Living Foundation (GHLF). GHLF is the parent organization of the CreakyJoints® (CJ) arthritis patient community and primary site for the PCORI-funded Arthritis Patient Partnership with Comparative Effectiveness Researchers (AR-PoWER) Patient Powered Research Network (PPRN), known as ArthritisPower®. ArthritisPower is a subset of CreakyJoints members who have expressed interest in participating in research and signed an informed consent form to participate in the PPRN and its associated research. Any individuals recruited from CreakyJoints or Facebook, who are not already members of ArthritisPower will be encouraged to join the ArthritisPower registry research app, but will not be required to do so in order to participate in the study.
This will be a single-arm interventional study to test the acceptability, feasibility, and effectiveness of structured telemedicine visits to encourage lifestyle changes that will improve quality of life, disease impact, and disease activity in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA).
The purpose of this study is to understand variation in the symptoms of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis using simple, scalable smartphone-based measurements. This study uses an iPhone app to record these symptoms through questionnaires and sensors.
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic, immune-mediated, systemic disease affecting less than 1% of people with variations by parts of the world, and around 20%-30% of participants with psoriasis. Upadacitinib (RINVOQ) is approved drug for the treatment of adult participants with active PsA in Europe. Approximately 450 adult participants who are prescribed Upadacitinib by their physician in accordance with local label will be enrolled in 4 countries in Europe: France, Germany, Greece and Italy. Participants will receive upadacitinib as prescribed by their physician according to their routine clinical practice and local label. Participants will be followed for up to 24 months. There is expected to be no additional burden for participants in this trial. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic according to their routine clinical practice.
