Quantitative Fluorescence Molecular Imaging of Ustekinumab-800CW to Elucidate the Drug Distribution Throughout Inflamed Tissue in Crohn's Disease and Psoriasis.
Crohn's Disease (CD) and psoriasis are chronic inflammatory diseases. Ustekinumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody. Ustekinumab is expensive and primary non-response is high in both CD and psoriasis. Currently, there are no predictors of response to ustekinumab and the actual mechanism of action has not yet been elucidated. To clarify the mechanism of action and gain a better understanding of the high primary non-response rates, the University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG) developed a tracer fluorescently labeling ustekinumab. This study aims to gain insight into ustekinumab distribution and concentrations in the gut. The current...

Safety and Effectiveness of Combined LED Light for the Treatment of Mild to Moderate Plaque Type Psoriasis Vulgaris
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether light therapy can help improve plaque psoriasis. This is a study based on a new medical device. The device produces its light from light emitting diodes. This type of technology has been used for several years in the treatment of other skin conditions. However, the investigators want to study the effect of a combination of very specific wavelengths of light on reducing the signs and symptoms of plaque psoriasis. The Investigators are looking to recruit 25 volunteers from the general population between the ages of 18 and 65 years old with mild to moderate plaque psoriasis and who...

Safety and Efficacy of Capsule FMT in Treatment-naïve Patients With Newly Diagnosed Chronic Inflammatory Diseases
PURPOSE: The main purpose is to explore clinical efficacy and safety associated with capsule FMT (cFMT) performed in newly diagnosed, untreated patients with rheumatic and gastrointestinal chronic inflammatory diseases (CIDs). DESIGN AND METHODS: In this 1:1 double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomised, 12-month exploratory trial, 200 patients with at least one of 6 different diagnoses of CIDs fulfilling the study criteria will be enrolled at time of diagnosis. The patient groups are: rheumatoid arthritis (RA), ankylosing spondylitis (AS), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), pulmonary sarcoidosis (PSar), Crohn's disease (CD), and ulcerative...

Shortening Treatments Of Chronic Inflammatory Conditions
Background Psoriasis is a common disease which is a source of major distress for patients and costs for the society. Treatments are effective but temporary and relapses occur, preferentially at sites previously involved. Locally, tissue resident memory T cells (TRM) cells prone to produce pathogenic cytokines accumulate in the outer layers of the resolved skin of psoriasis patients under treatment, and can trigger strong inflammatory responses upon reactivation, thus starting the cascade of the relapse. We have recently shown that the skin transcriptional responses after TRM cell activation in healed skin biopsies of patients could...

Shuiniujiao Dihuang Decoction With Variation for the Treatment of Psoriasis
Psoriasis is an inflammatory skin disease with huge negative impact on the quality of life of the patients, and has an overall prevalence of 2% to 3% in the general population. Plaques psoriasis is the most common type of the disease and presents red, well demarcated, and silvery plaques mainly localized in the umbilical and lumbosacral area as well as in the elbows, knees, and scalp. Currently, pharmacological treatments such as retinoids, corticosteroids, vitamin D analogs and biologics remain the main options for most psoriasis patients. However, side effect and high cost barred many ordinary psoriasis patients from benefiting...
