Active clinical trials for "Arthritis, Psoriatic"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of risankizumab in adults with moderately to severely active psoriatic arthritis (PsA).

An open label phase 3 study

The study objectives of Period 1 are to compare the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of upadacitinib 15 mg once daily (QD) and 30 mg QD versus placebo for the treatment of signs and symptoms in adults with moderately to severely active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) who have had an inadequate response or intolerance to biologic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug (bDMARD). The objective of Period 2 is to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability and efficacy of upadacitinib 15 mg QD and 30 mg QD in participants who have completed Period 1.

The overarching goal of this study is to develop a direct-to-patient screening approach that will improve early Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) detection in patients with psoriasis. Previously developed screening questionnaires were intended for use in the setting of a doctor's office to assist providers with referral decisions. However, these screening questionnaires are infrequently used in routine practice because of limitations with time and resources. The study will aim to develop a practical screening strategy that does not require involvement from dermatologists (or other non-rheumatology providers) and can systematically reach a broad range of psoriasis patients, including patients not attending dermatology clinics. The researchers hypothesize that disseminating questionnaires directly to patients outside of a clinic setting (direct-to-patient approach) will educate patients about their PsA risk and improve early PsA diagnoses.

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.

This is a patient research registry aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of a comprehensive, root-cause medical approach ("AndHealth program") for autoimmune disorders. This approach involves a combination of pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapies offered under the care of a licensed physician with the support of health coaches. While protocol guidance is provided, the therapeutic approach is personalized to the individual needs of patients. The autoimmune disorders of focus in this registry include rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, psoriasis and ankylosing spondylitis. A variety of validated labs, patient-reported outcomes, and medication usage will be assessed among participating patients over a period of up to five years to evaluate the long-term effectiveness of this approach.

Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a type of arthritis that happens when the body's immune system attacks healthy cells and tissues causing joint pain, stiffness, and swelling. Symptoms can get worse and go away for periods of time. PsA that begins before a patient's 16th birthday is called juvenile PsA (jPsA).This study will evaluate how safe risankizumab is for the treatment of psoriatic arthritis and to assess change in disease symptoms. Risankizumab is being studied for the treatment of jPsA and adalimumab is approved for the treatment of jPsA. Participants are placed in 1 of 2 groups, called treatment arms. Each group receives a different treatment. There is a 1 in 4 chance that participants will be assigned to receive adalimumab. Approximately 40 juvenile participants with jPsA will be enrolled at approximately 30 sites worldwide. Participants will receive risankizumab and adalimumab as subcutaneous (SC) injections based on body weight. At the start of Period 1, participants are randomized to receive risankizumab or adalimumab for 24 weeks. Participants who respond to the study treatment received in Period 1, will continue to receive the same treatment in Period 2 for another 100 weeks. Those with worsening jPsA symptoms in Period 2 will be withdrawn from the study. Participants who receive adalimumab are followed for safety for 70 days after the last study treatment. Participants who receive risankizumab are followed for 140 days after the last study treatment. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care (due to study procedures). 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.

TNFα inhibitors have revolutionized the management of patients suffering from inflammatory diseases in the field of rheumatology. Infliximab remains widely used in France, and infliximab biosimilars have been routinely used since 2015 in Cochin Hospital with an interchangeability strategy validated by two real life studies. REMSIMA® 120 mg is the first authorized subcutaneous (SC) form of infliximab to be administered at a fixed dose of 120 mg every 2 weeks. Scarce information is available regarding the safety and efficacy of proposing a switch from IV infliximab to SC REMSIMA® in the subsets of patients suffering from different rheumatic diseases in daily care. The primary objective of the SIC2 study will be determine the retention rate of Remsima SC at 6 months. The investigators will recruit adult patients with rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthritis, psoriatic arthritis.

The purpose of this study is to create and test a patient decision aid that facilitates the shared decision-making process when patients with psoriasis and/or psoriatic arthritis are starting or switching to a new therapy.

Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic inflammatory rheumatic disease, belonging to the wide spectrum of spondyloarthritis, but with the particularity to be associated with personal psoriasis or familial psoriasis. PsA can be a very disabling disease through progressive and irreversible joint damage. Long-term functional prognosis of patients with PsA is correlated with the presence and severity of the radiographic joint lesions of the disease. However, the proportion of patients who will develop those peripheral joint damages is not yet known and less over the factors which are associated/involved in such an aggressive pattern of the disease. Early identification of this subgroup of patients is particularly important for determining early "intensive" treatment, strict management with a Treat To Target approach, and identification of new treatments with a stronger structural effect. The main objective of this prospective 10 years cohort is to describe the 5 years structural (radiographic) severity of recent PsA with recent peripheral arthritis.Some of the secondary objectives are to describe the 10 years structural severity within those patients, and to determine the predictive factors of those 5 and 10 years radiographic lesions (genetic, environmental, clinic, therapeutic factors). APACHE will provide a unique longitudinal standardized database concerning patients with PsA with very recent peripheral arthritis. Research projects which will based on those collected data should allow to identify the mechanisms of aggressive joint damage, to highlight mew treatments targets, to better describe the burden of the disease, to test previous or develop new assessments tolls, to develop early diagnostic criteria
