NCT01139918

Brief Summary

This exploratory study will be used to identify questions that will be part of a new QoL questionnaire for patients with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis and to determine the sample size needed for its validation. The new questionnaire will be a global QoL questionnaire which will take into account the impact of both psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis on QoL. STUDY OBJECTIVES

  • To evaluate the influence of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis on patient's answers to QoL questions from DLQI, HAQ, EQ-5D, FACIT-fatigue and SF-36.
  • To identify an equal number of questions from DLQI, HAQ, EQ-5D, FACIT-fatigue and SF-36 where answers are mostly influenced either by psoriatic arthritis or by psoriasis.

You may qualify if:

  • Patient with plaque psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis with either:
  • Moderate psoriatic arthritis and moderate psoriasis defined as: \[psoriatic arthritis with either 3-7 joints showing signs of synovitis OR a BASDAI of 2-4\] AND \[between 3 to less than 10% of the body surface area involved with psoriasis\] (COHORT A) OR
  • Mild psoriatic arthritis and Moderate psoriasis defined as: \[psoriatic arthritis with either 1-2 joints showing signs of synovitis OR a BASDAI greater than 0 but less than 2\] AND \[between 3 to less than 10% of the body surface area involved with psoriasis\] (COHORT B) OR
  • Moderate psoriatic arthritis and Mild psoriasis defined as: \[psoriatic arthritis with either 3-7 joints showing signs of synovitis OR a BASDAI of 2-4\] AND \[more than 0 but less than 3% of the body surface area involved with psoriasis\] (COHORT C)

  • Patient has had a significant flare-up of psoriasis or psoriatic arthritis within 90 days of Day 0
  • Patient has received investigational drugs within four weeks prior to Day 0
  • Patient has been treated with systemic anti-psoriatic drugs such as steroids, retinoids, cyclosporine, PUVA therapy within the four weeks prior to Day 0.
