Psoriatic Arthritis Research Collaborative: Biologic Sub-Study

Study Purpose

Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is an inflammatory arthritis with substantial variation in clinical features. We propose a multicenter collaborative approach to better understand the phenotypes and current management of PsA in the United States.The central goal of this proposal is to obtain the data necessary to design a pragmatic trial in PsA.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

Unknown
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Eligible Ages 18 Years - 89 Years

More Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • - Age 18-89.
  • - Active PsA (at least one swollen joint or enthesitis) -Meet CASPAR criteria (Table 2) (103) -Initiation of TNFi (etanercept, adalimumab, infliximab, certolizumab, golimumab) (At the time of the submission, TNFi biosimilars have been approved by the FDA but are not available on the US market.
Once available, patients starting TNFi biosimilars will similarly be eligible for participation. Patients may have been on the medication in the past but must have had greater than 2 months off the medication.Patients may be taking other traditional DMARDs. A washout period is not required.)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • - Unable to give informed consent.
  • - Out of the age range.
  • - Switching therapies for skin psoriasis in the setting of well controlled joint and enthesis symptoms.
- Patients with only active PsA

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT03378336
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Psoriatic Arthritis
Additional Details

Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic inflammatory arthritis that can be associated with devastating outcomes including irreversible joint damage. The management of a patient with PsA is extremely challenging due to the high degree of phenotypic heterogeneity. The ultimate goal of this proposal is to prepare pragmatic trials in PsA trials that will encompass all relevant subgroups of patients. The aims of this study specifically focus on responses to biologic therapy among patients with PsA and determining the optimal set of outcome measures for PsA trials.
