Trial summary

Objectives: To identify a candidate set of biomarkers specific to AxPsA. Overview: Clinical and imaging characterization of PsA patients will be combined with extensive molecular assessment of both liquid and tissue compartments to identify biomarkers which differentiate PsA patients with and without axial involvement Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 80 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Adult persons with diagnosed active PsA including psoriatic lesions, naive to biologic or tsDMARD therapies

Who may be able to join

  • Persons with PsA diagnosed by a consultant Rheumatologist with disease duration of > 3 months but < 10 years with or without IBP.
  • Adults between the ages 18 and 80 years, with joint disease onset after 16 years of age
  • Patients able to understand and complete consent procedures
  • Study participants must have PsA, meet CASPAR criteria, and must have active disease as defined by the treating rheumatologist, including an evaluable psoriatic skin lesion amenable to 6mm punch skin biopsy.
  • o Psoriasis should be diagnosed by a consultant rheumatologist or dermatologist.
  • Study participants must have been on consistent therapy for their PsA for the past 90 days
  • Study participants must be naïve to biological treatment and targeted synthetic DMARD treatment (examples: JAK inhibitors, apremilast)

Who cannot join

  • • Persons with musculoskeletal (peripheral or axial) symptoms for >10 years
  • Persons with planned major surgery (e.g., joint replacement) within the duration of the collection of data for the study
  • Persons with a history of chemotherapy, radiation therapy or immunotherapy for cancer in the preceding 5 years.
  • Persons with ongoing cancer (not excluding non-melanoma skin, cervical/breast in-situ carcinoma) but those fully recovered from an episode of cancer (in remission for more than 5 years) may be included at the discretion of the patient's treating rheumatologist.
  • Persons with an active severe or serious infection
  • Patients with non-severe infection at the discretion of the Investigator
  • Persons with other concomitant disorders incompatible with study (at discretion of Investigator).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Psoriatic Arthritis, run by Group for Research and Assessment of Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis at 2 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Jun 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Target biomarker identification (time frame: 18 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Jun 2023.
