Filter by:POISE is a two arm interventional trial nested within a cohort (Trials Within Cohorts or TWiCs design). This tests less aggressive early therapy in patients newly diagnosed with low impact oligoarticular PsA. Arm 1 will receive standard step up therapy in the cohort and act as the control group. Arm 2 will receive local steroid injections to active joints and will be able to use non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) only
This study is designed to assess the efficacy of apremilast, either in monotherapy or with stable methotrexate, on imaging outcomes in adults with active psoriatic arthritis with less than 5 years of disease duration (since diagnosis), and who are naïve to biologic therapies.
Title Safety and Efficacy of Tofacitinib vs Methotrexate in the treatment of Psoriatic Arthritis- An Open Label Randomized single center study Psoriatic arthritis is defined as an inflammatory arthropathy associated with skin psoriasis and usually negative for rheumatoid factor. Till date, many NSAIDs, corticosteroids, DMARDs have been used, but the safety and efficacy issues demands more researches. The prevalence of PsA worldwide is about 1%-2% and among patients with psoriasis ranges from 7% to 42%. The pathogenesis of PsA involves many cytokines. Tofacitinib is an oral Janus Kinase (JAK) inhibitor with immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory mechanism. It binds to JAK and prevents the activation of the JAK-signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT) signaling pathway which ultimately decreases the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and prevents both inflammatory response and the inflammation-induced damage. It has shown better efficacy in many diseases like Rheumatoid Arthritis, Axial spondyloarthropathies, Psoriasis, Psoriatic Arthritis, Alopecia areata, dry eye disease. This prospective, open label, randomized study will be conducted in inpatient and outpatient departments of Rheumatology, BSMMU, Dhaka, Bangladesh in 110 adult volunteers (>18 years) of both genders diagnosed as psoriatic arthritis. Patients will be divided equally into two groups, Group A will be put on Tofacitinib 5 mg twice daily and Group B will be put on Methotrexate weekly in increasing dose with maximum dose of 25 mg weekly. Groups will be divided on the basis of randomization by random number table. Patients with inadequate response to highest dose of MTX or Tofacitinib 5 mg BD at the end of 3 months will be put on Tofacitinib 5 mg BD or Tofacitinib 10 mg BD respectively. The patients not eligible for therapy will not be included in the study. Patients will be followed up at 1, 3 and 6 months. Baseline characteristics will be monitored and recorded at 3 and 6 months. The clinical information of the study subjects will be recorded in a structured history, clinical examination and questionnaire. All subjects will be enrolled after having informed written consent. The participants will enjoy every right to participate or withdraw from the study at any point of time. Response to Tofacitinib will be expressed in mean, standard deviation and percentage. Ethical clearance will be taken from the Institutional Review Board (IRB) of BSMMU.
A randomized, placebo-controlled trial with blinded outcome assessments will be conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CBD in patients with Hand-OA and PsA during a 12-week treatment period.
Psoriatic arthritis is related with chronic inflammation and progressive radiographic damages, and it in turn lead to disability and loss in function-ability. Recent advance in treatment pathway through anti IL-17 gives promising clinical improvement. Yet, its effect on radiographic progression remains uncertain. This study aimed to ascertain the effect of secukinumab on structural progression in PsA by evaluation through high resolution peripheral quantative computed tomography (HRpqCT).
The PaGoPsA study objective is to ascertain if guideline-based psoriatic arthritis clinical care achieves individual patient goals as articulated by patients, and to identify predictors of achieving individual patient goals from psoriatic arthritis treatment.
A long term study to demonstrate the safety of Tildrakizumab in Subjects with Psoriatic Arthritis who Have Previously Completed Study with Tildrakizumab
Background The risk for hospitalized infection (i.e. infection leading to hospitalization) in patients with inflammatory arthritis (rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA) or axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) treated with biological drugs is known to be increased compared to the background population. In daily clinical practice, there is a need for a simple way to assess the absolute risk for hospitalized infection in individual patients based on easily available information such as age, diagnosis, functional status, comorbidities and medication. This risk estimate will be useful in clinical decision making e.g. when advising patients on whether or not to initiate biologic therapy or when advising patients on influenza or pneumococcal vaccination. Objectives The objectives are 1) to assess the risk for hospitalized infection (infection leading to hospitalization) in patients with inflammatory arthritis during 12 months of follow-up after initiating treatment with their first biological drug (bDMARD) with the risk in the general population, and 2) to develop a simple, clinically useful algorithm that allows prediction of the risk of hospitalized infection in individual patients. Methods Observational cohort study based on existing data in: The Danish Rheumatology Register (DANBIO), The Danish National Patient Register, The Danish National Prescription Register and The Danish Register of Causes of Death. All patients registered in DANBIO with RA, PsA or axSpA who initiated treatment with their first biological drug between January 1, 2006 and December 31, 2016 will be identified. Baseline predictors and outcomes (hospitalized infection or death) during 12 months of follow-up are obtained. Logistic regression analysis and 10-fold cross-validation will be used to develop and internally validate the prediction model.
A randomised, within-participants cross-over design trial including 60 patients with rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis and axial spondyloarthritis. The participants will be randomised to data registration of patient reported outcome measures (PROM) through the DANBIO app on a smartphone first and thereafter via the touch screen solution at the rheumatology outpatient clinic or vice versa. Outcomes are the following PROM: HAQ, VAS pain, VAS fatigue, VAS global Health, BASDAI, BASFI, PASS, Anchoring question, DAS28crp and ASDAS.
This is a 6 month study investigating the effectiveness and safety of tofacitinib in treating signs and symptoms and improving physical function in Chinese patients with active psoriatic arthritis and had inadequate response to a conventional synthetic disease modifying anti-rheumatic drug. This is a China alone study.
