Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
-Integrative systems medicine profile will be derived from blood samples (RNA sequencing, micro RNA profiling, genome-wide methylation, flow-cytometry; same as in protocol 13-696), skin biopsies (immunohistochemistry and single cell sequencing), and microbiome (skin/gut 16S rRNA sequencing). -Established disease activity parameters will be assessed (e.g. joint count, enthesitis count, CRP) along with novel disease activity parameters aimed at detecting early (sub-clinical) changes in the joint/enthesis (i.e. MRI of the feet; whole body FDG-PET/CT). Group differences with respect to systems medicine profile and novel radiographic imaging will be compared between Pso and PsA (with AS serving as disease control group). The relationship between the early changes in the joint/enthesis (as detected with novel imaging) will be compared to the underlying molecular pathways (as detected by integrative systems medicine profile).

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The prospective value of integrative systems medicine profile and (novel) disease activity parameters on disease course and response to treatment will be evaluated. Novel imaging techniques (MRI of the feet; whole body FDG-PET/CT) will be compared to established disease activity parameters to evaluate their complementary/additional use as disease-activity parameters.
