Active clinical trials for "Psoriasis"

The study was conducted to describe the demographics, disease characteristics, disease severity, comorbidities and patient reported outcomes at baseline and follow-up periods among adult patients diagnosed with PsO in CorEvitas' PsO Registry under routine medical care initiating secukinumab (SEC).

Weight loss may help psoriasis. Phototherapy helps psoriasis. Combining the two treatments may help even more. Determining if a high protein diet vs a low protein diet results in improving psoriais may help lead to future dietary effects on psoriasis therapy

For public health purposes disability is becoming increasingly important as an outcome measure. Despite this, there are few data on the effectiveness of adalimumab on disability outcomes in patients with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs), particularly in the Phase IV setting. There are even less data available in New Zealand, which did not have the opportunity to participate to a major extent in large, multinational, Phase III pivotal studies of adalimumab in IMIDs. The World Health Organisation Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS) 2.0 is a simple, validated, free and easy-to-use generic assessment instrument for health and disability. It is applicable across cultures, in all adult populations. It is a responsive measure that can show what difference a treatment makes. Results from study of effect of adalimumab on WHODAS scores and other patient-reported outcomes (PROs) of work activity and well-being will be of interest to a variety of stakeholders in the healthcare system including patients, healthcare practitioners and payers.

This study is conducted to assess the relative bioavailability of MTX administered subcutaneously via a prefilled pen (50mg/mL) compared with MTX administered via IM injection (25mg/mL).

The main goal of this study is to determine optimal cut-off values of adalimumab trough levels corresponding to good clinical response. Determination of these values is necessary to compose a therapeutic algorithm, in which the dosing schedule can be adjusted according to serum trough levels of adalimumab and AAA (anti-adalimumab antibodies). A secondary objective of this study is to further detect and quantify AAA and to correlate them with adalimumab and clinical response in a real life setting cohort of psoriatic patients.

Evaluate the 3-year survival of etanercept in patients over 60 years with psoriasis in moderate / severe plaque and the reasons that led to the abandonment. Besides factors that might have had a positive or negative influence on adherence to treatment and analysis of efficacy (PASI 75) and safety will be identified. All variables were collected through retrospective review of medical records of patients dermatology unit are made.

It is known from the COMET-trial that patients who start Enbrel treatment early have a great chance of reaching clinical remission and radiographic nonprogression. It is still unclear, however, how many patients with early arthritis achieve remission and radiographic nonprogression under the conditions of routine rheumatologic care and the local recommendations of Enbrel treatment (pre-treatment of at least 2 DMARDs, one of them MTX). Therefore, no robust x-ray data are available to show/demonstrate the average extent of x-ray damage in routine patients on Enbrel outside clinical studies. if the outstanding effect on structural damage of Enbrel can be reproduced in routine practice. that the 'Silent Progressor' is an issue relevant not only in clinical trials, but also for day-to-day decision making. the optimal onset of Enbrel treatment in the course of the disease to prevent radiographic damage

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory cutaneous disease, affecting 3% of the French population. Among psoriatic patients, 80% feel pain or cutaneous discomfort related to their pathology. Neurogenic inflammation's role in psoriasis has recently been put forward by a study showing that TRPV1 ion channels are necessary to establish psoriasiform inflammation in mice. The investigators hypothesize that there is a link between cutaneous sensory neuropathies and altered cutaneous microcirculation during psoriasis. In order to test this hypothesis, local vasodilators will be delivered to patients by iontophoresis and their skin blood flow in response to these molecules will be followed by laser Doppler recordings. Two recordings will be performed for each patient, both on a psoriasis plaque and on uninvolved skin, in order for the patient to be his own internal control.

This is a multicenter, prospective, non-interventional, observational single arm study. Two-hundred patients will be recruited in the Netherlands over a one year period. In all cases, the decision to treat the patient with apremilast will be made prior to the decision to enter the subject into this study. Treatment will be according to routine clinical practice and based on recommendations as per the SPC of apremilast (Otezla®). Recruitment will continue until 200 patients have entered the study. Each patient will be followed for 12 months.

• Assessment of tissue level of resolvin D1 in psoriasis in comparison to its level in healthy controls in order to verify its role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis.
