Our study aims to determine whether intermittent fasting (IMF) is a valid method to improve psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) disease severity and quality of life. Patients within OSU Dermatology with psoriasis and/or psoriatic arthritis will be enrolled in a dietary intervention for a 24-week period. A prospective, single-blind parallel group randomized control trial will include an IMF dietary intervention group and a standard routine diet group for a duration of 24 weeks. After the initial 12 weeks of the dietary intervention, patients will be followed for an additional 12 weeks to assess changes in their disease state and quality of life after returning to their initial dietary routines. In total, the study will be 24 weeks. Baseline assessment will consist of standard psoriasis and PsA clinical parameters; evaluation will be performed by a blinded physician. These parameters will be reassessed every 4 weeks via video visit for the three month duration of the study, and then again at the 24-week conclusion of the study. In addition, each visit will assess patient-reported outcomes using dermatology-specific quality of life indices. Biometric measurements of weight, height, BMI, and waist-to-hip ratio will be recorded at baseline and all subsequent visits. Dietary adherence will be assessed by virtual check-in visits, and dietary guidance will be provided and reviewed at each visit by the research coordinator. A physician or the research coordinator will be available for questions between times of data collection. The primary outcome measure will be feasibility of a larger study, which will be determined at the initial 12-week timepoint. This data is vital to determine effect size and dropout frequency for future studies. Secondary outcomes will include changes in clinical indices, biometric measurements, and quality of life indices at 12 weeks after randomization and at the end of the 24-week study. Achievement of a 5% weight reduction at 12 weeks, and a 10-15% weight reduction at 24 weeks will be additional secondary endpoints. Data for each patient will be stored in a password-protected and encrypted REDCAP database on a secure OSU server.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate pharmacokinetics (PK) of ustekinumab in juvenile psoriatic arthritis (jPsA) and pediatric psoriasis (PsO).
The overarching goal of this study is to develop a direct-to-patient screening approach that will improve early Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) detection in patients with psoriasis. Previously developed screening questionnaires were intended for use in the setting of a doctor's office to assist providers with referral decisions. However, these screening questionnaires are infrequently used in routine practice because of limitations with time and resources. The study will aim to develop a practical screening strategy that does not require involvement from dermatologists (or other non-rheumatology providers) and can systematically reach a broad range of psoriasis patients, including patients not attending dermatology clinics. The researchers hypothesize that disseminating questionnaires directly to patients outside of a clinic setting (direct-to-patient approach) will educate patients about their PsA risk and improve early PsA diagnoses.
The purpose of this study is to create and test a patient decision aid that facilitates the shared decision-making process when patients with psoriasis and/or psoriatic arthritis are starting or switching to a new therapy.
This is a proof-of-principle, placebo-controlled, open label study to assess the improvement in the Treg counts and PASI Scores with PEVCO given at 1000 mg four times daily in patients with PsO (subjects may or may not have PsA) , who have active disease and are not currently receiving other therapy (as defined by the inclusion/exclusion criteria) compared to healthy subjects. The patients and healthy controls will receive placebo or PEVCO for a total of 9 weeks (3 weeks for placebo, followed by 6 weeks for PEVCO). No topical or systemic medications will be used during this period.

Randomized, double-blind, 24-week study of patients with psoriatic arthritis comparing alefacept + methotrexate (MTX) vs. placebo + MTX followed by a 24-week open-label extension with only alefacept + MTX treatment.
This study will examine the genetic basis of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. It is known that genes play an important role in determining who gets psoriasis or psoriatic arthritis. This study will look for specific gene variants (alleles) that run in families with these conditions, or are found more often in people with these conditions than in those without them. Participants for this study were identified through the dermatology services of the University of Michigan Medical Center, the Ann Arbor Veterans Affairs Medical Center, the University of Kiel, and Henry Ford Hospital. Additional families were provided by the National Psoriasis Foundation Tissue Bank. They include people with psoriasis or psoriatic arthritis, or both, in addition to some family members of patients. Only families in which the age of the patient at disease onset was below 40 years are included. Patients were included if they had lesions covering more than 1 percent of their total body surface area or if at least two skin, scalp, nail, or joint lesions were diagnosed as psoriasis. Healthy volunteers are also enrolled as control subjects. Participants undergo the following procedures, as follows: Patients with psoriasis and people without psoriasis who have multiple family members with the disease * Skin evaluation * Photographs of lesions for documentation Patients with psoriatic arthritis and people without psoriatic arthritis who have multiple family members with the disease * Joint evaluation and possibly ultrasound * Joint X-rays or review of existing X-rays Patients with psoriasis only, with psoriatic arthritis, and healthy volunteers * Blood draw of 30 milliliters. Some of the blood collected will be used to test for rheumatoid factor and C-reactive protein in patients with psoriatic arthritis. * Periodic questionnaires to update health status information
This is a placebo controlled study evaluating the role of fludarabine (a nucleoside analog targeting both resting and proliferating lymphocytes) in the treatment of moderate to severe psoriotic arthritis. Patients should have failed at least one disease modifying antirheumatic drug.
This study will examine the genetic and immune factors involved in the cause and development of psoriatic arthritis-a disease of both the skin and joints. It will describe the medical features and natural course of the disease and determine participants' eligibility for experimental treatment protocols. Patients with known or suspected psoriatic arthritis 5 years of age and older and their relatives may enroll in this study. Patients will be evaluated with a medical history and physical examination, electrocardiogram, blood tests and X-rays. Additional procedures may include: 1. Leukapheresis-Collection of white blood cells for genetic analysis. Whole blood is collected through a needle placed in an arm vein. The blood circulates through a machine that separates it into its components. The plasma is removed and the cells are returned to the body through a second needle placed in the other arm. 2. Skin biopsy-Removal of a small skin sample for microscopic analysis. An area of skin is numbed with an anesthetic and one to three small circular portions (about 1/4 inch in diameter) are cut and removed. 3. Joint aspiration-Removal of a small sample of synovial fluid (lubricating joint fluid). An area of skin around the biopsy site is numbed with an anesthetic, and a needle is inserted into the joint to pull out a small fluid sample. 4. Synovial needle biopsy-Removal of a small sample of synovial tissue (tissue lining the joint). An area of skin around the biopsy site is numbed with an anesthetic and a large needle is inserted into the joint. A smaller needle attached to a syringe is then placed inside the larger needle and small pieces of synovial tissue are removed. 5. Genetic studies-Saliva and blood samples will be collected for gene testing. Saliva is collected by rinsing the mouth with a tablespoon of salt water and spitting into a test tube. Patients will be followed once or twice a year and may be evaluated for participation in an experimental treatment study. Participating relatives of patients will fill out a brief medical history questionnaire and provide a DNA sample (blood sample or tissue swab from the inside of the cheek).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the drug levels, efficacy, and safety of Deucravacitinib (BMS-986165) in pediatric participants with juvenile psoriatic arthritis.
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a type of arthritis that happens when the body's immune system attacks healthy cells and tissues causing joint pain, stiffness, and swelling. Symptoms can get worse and go away for periods of time. This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of targeted therapies through a series of substudies, for the treatment of active psoriatic arthritis and to assess the changes in disease symptoms. The therapies being assessed in this sub-study are risankizumab and lutikizumab. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to one of the three treatment arms: lutikizumab monotherapy, risankizumab monotherapy or a combination therapy of lutikizumab and risankizumab. Around 120 participants will be enrolled in the study at approximately 40 sites worldwide. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care (due to study procedures). Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
