A Study to Test How Well Different Doses of BI 765250 Are Tolerated by People With a Skin Disease Called Plaque Psoriasis
This study is open to adults with plaque psoriasis. The main purpose of this study is to find out whether people with plaque psoriasis can tolerate a medicine called BI 765250. Another purpose is to check whether BI 765250 can improve participants' skin condition. Participants are divided into 4 groups. Each group gets a different dose of BI 765250 or placebo as an infusion or injection. Placebo infusions and injections look like BI 765250 but do not contain any medicine. It is decided by chance, who gets BI 765250 and who gets placebo. During the first 2 weeks, participants get the study medicine as an infusion into a vein once a...

Augmenting Standard-of-care Treatment of Plaque Psoriasis by Neuromodulation
The human body responds to inflammation, such as psoriatic skin lesions, by activating the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway. In patients with plaque psoriasis, this pathway is not sufficient to clear the skin lesions. Importantly, the vagus nerve, that is part of the anti-inflammatory pathway, also innervates the ear where it can be activated through non-invasive transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS). This raises the research question if taVNS - added to standard of care - improves the symptoms of plaque psoriasis by augmenting the function of the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway. Thus, the aim of this...

Axial Involvement in Psoriatic Arthritis Cohort
This is a multinational multicenter cross-sectional study in patients with a definite diagnosis of PsA. The population of interest will consist of 400 adult patients diagnosed with PsA and fulfilling the classification criteria for PsA and not receiving biological or targeted synthetic disease modifying antirheumatic drugs (b or tsDMARDs). Participating rheumatologists are encouraged to include consecutive PsA patients not treated with biologic or a targeted synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drug because of their potential impact on active inflammatory changes in the axial skeleton, which will be the focus of the current...

Biobank for Inflammatory Chronic Diseases and Osteoporosis
The aim of this study is to constitute a biobank for patients followed in the Rheumatology center of Toulouse University Hospital for a chronic inflammatory rheumatism including rheumatoid arthritis (RA), spondyloarthritis(SpA), and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) or a chronic bone disease including osteoporosis in order to identify biomarkers associated with therapeutic response.

BIOTIPRA: BIOmarker-guided Treatment Decisions In Psoriatic and Rheumatoid Arthritis
TNFi drugs remain the most prescribed first-line biologics for patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, up to 40% of RA patients fail to respond to TNFi treatment. One explanation of non-response is the development of anti-drug antibodies and low drug levels. Studies have consistently shown that: 1. Serum drug levels of monoclonal antibodies (such as adalimumab, certolizumab, infliximab) and the presence of anti-drug antibodies in samples taken at 3 and 6 months correlate with subsequent response at 12 months. 2. Non-responders and those who develop anti-drug antibodies are less likely to receive ...

Brain Changes in Psoriasis After Secukinumab Treatment
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of a biologic drug targeting the Interleukin (IL)-17 pathway (secukinumab) on brain plasticity and examine whether the plastic changes correlate with the improvement of perception of well-being, itch, and pain in participants with psoriasis.

Canadian Real World Evidence Study of Brodalumab in Plaque Psoriasis to Understand the Impact on Quality of Life and Work Productivity
This is a phase IV, 12-month observational, prospective, open-label, multi-center study that will be conducted across approximately 50 sites in Canada for an estimated study duration of 32 months. All eligible adult participants who are enrolling into the SILIQ Patient Support Program (PSP) and initiating brodalumab as per routine care may be offered participation in the study. If the participant agrees, their verbal consent and details will be entered into the study platform by the enrolling physician so that the participant can access the electronic informed consent form. Participants who meet the eligibility criteria and provide ...
