Brief summary

This is a phase 4, multicenter, randomized, non-therapeutic interventional trial in subjects with psoriasis looking for the prevalence of psoriatic arthritis. Subjects will be seen and evaluated by a dermatologist at visit 1 and by a rheumatologist at visit 2. A subset of subjects will then go on to visit 3 for imaging procedures (x-ray, MRI, and ultrasound).

Interventions

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Participants With Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) Based on Physical Examination, Medical History and Laboratory ResultsWeek 0 through Week 8PsA: inflammatory arthritis associated with psoriasis that can have an indolent and progressive course. Percentage of participants with PsA was calculated by dividing the number of participants who were classified as positive by the rheumatologist and the total number of participants evaluated using medical history, physical examination and laboratory results as the basis for the diagnosis.

Secondary PsA diagnosis made by rheumatologist based on physical examination and medical history only. For both, numerator was number of participants with No answer to question concerning previous diagnosis of PsA at Visit 1 (dermatology visit) and were subsequently classified as positive by rheumatologist; denominator was total number of participants evaluated for PsA.

Percentage of Participants With Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) Based on Physical Examination, Medical History and Laboratory Results

PsA: inflammatory arthritis associated with psoriasis that can have an indolent and progressive course. Percentage of participants with PsA was calculated by dividing the number of participants who were classified as positive by the rheumatologist and the total number of participants evaluated using medical history, physical examination and laboratory results as the basis for the diagnosis.

Time frame: Week 0 through Week 8

Population: Full analysis set (FAS) population included all randomized participants with an answer to the question at Visit 1 (dermatology visit) about previous diagnosis of PsA by a rheumatologist and had an assessment of PsA during the study by a rheumatologist based on medical history, physical examination and laboratory results.
