Subjects who have been previously been treated with bDMARD or tsDMARD will be allowed entry into study after an appropriate wash-out period prior to baseline: bDMARDs: - Adalimumab: 6 weeks or longer (average half-life 2 weeks) - Certolizumab: 6 weeks or longer (half-life approx. 14 days) - Etanercept: 3 weeks or longer (half-life approx. 70 hours) - Golimumab: 6 weeks or longer (half-life 12 + 3 days) - Infliximab: 7 weeks or longer (half-life 8-9,5 days) - Secukinumab: 12 weeks or longer (average half-life 27 days) - Ustekinumab: 12 weeks or longer (half life up to 32 days) - Guselkumab: 6 weeks or longer (half life up to 18 days) tsDMARDs: - Tofacitinib: 1 week or longer (half-life 3 hours) - Apremilast: 1 week or longer (half life up to 9 hours) - Baricitinib: 1 week or longer (half life up to 12,5 hours) - Upadacitinib: 1 week or longer (half life upp to 14 hours) - For other bDMARD not mentioned above the wash-out period should be at least three times the half-life of the bDMARD concerned. Women of childbearing potential or men capable of fathering children must be using effective contraception during treatment with abatacept and up to 14 weeks after the last dose of abatacept treatment. Must understand and voluntarily sign an informed consent form including written consent for data protection Must be able to adhere to the study visit schedule and other protocol requirements Are the trial subjects under 18? no Number of subjects for this age range: F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range 15 F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 5

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To evaluate the effects of abatacept on erosive bone changes in patients with PsA for up to 24 weeks;Secondary Objective: To evaluate the effects of abatacept on signs of inflammation in patients with PsA from baseline compared to week 12 and week 24;Primary end point(s): Change in bone erosion volume at the second and third metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint measured by Hr-pQCT at week 24 compared to baseline ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Baseline, Week 24

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Number of new erosions at second and third MCP joint at week 24 using HR-pQCT Number of new osteophytes in MCP joints at week 24 using HR-pQCT Number of new bone erosions at week 12 and week 24 compared to baseline using Hand MRI Change in tenosynovitis score between baseline and week 12 and week 24 using Hand MRI Change in PsAMRIS between baseline and week 12 and week 24 using Hand MRI Change in synovitis between baseline and week 12 and week 24 using Hand MRI Change in DAS28 (ESR) between baseline and week 12 and week 24 Change in DAPSA between baseline and week 12 and week 24 Change in MDA between baseline and week 12 and week 24 Change in HAQ-DI between baseline and week 12 and week 24 Change in SPARCC between baseline and week 12 and week 24 Change in PSAID between baseline and week 12 and week 24 Change in PASI between screening, baseline, week 12 and week 24;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Baseline, Week 12, Week 24
