Brief Summary
Biologics such as anti-Tumor Necrosis Factor or TNF inhibitor (TNFi) for treatment of Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) has greatly reduced bone damage. This collaborative study will provide insights into key mechanisms that underlie inflammatory arthritis and bone damage in psoriatic joints and will catalyze biomarker discovery, identifying early biologic responders to facilitate optimization of therapy.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Examination of molecular mechanisms underlying DC-STAMP and TRAF3 mediated osteoclastogenesis
Investigators will analyze TRAF3 and DC-STAMP expression in monocytes from PsA patients cross-sectionally by flow cytometry. Disease Activity Score 66/68 (DAS66/68), TRAF3 levels and the change in DC-STAMP+CD14+ will be observed to see if they correlate with standard of care treatment.
week 0 to week 16
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Assessment of DC-STAMP and TRAF3 as biologic predictor and treatment response markers in PsA
week 0 to week 16
Study Arms (2)
Stable PsA response to treatment
Individuals with psoriatic arthritis who are being treated standard of care with a stable DMARD or a biologic
PsA inadequate response to DMARD
Individuals with psoriatic arthritis who have had an inadequate response to a DMARD and are being treated standard of care with a biologic.
Eligibility Criteria
Male and female subjects that are 18 years old and older. Due to the demographic distribution of the disease we expect all or nearly all subjects to be caucasian, however no subjects will be excluded based on race or ethnic origin.
You may qualify if:
- All Subjects
- Ability to provide written informed consent.
- Subjects can be of either gender but must be at least 18 years old.
- Subjects with PsA should fulfill CASPAR criteria
- Longitudinal
- \. Patients with active PsA starting standard of care biologic treatment.
- Additional Blood Draw
- \. Positive DC-STAMP signal at baseline
- Cross-Sectional 1. Patients on stable DMARDS or biologics for more than 16 weeks.
You may not qualify if:
- \. Unable to donate blood because of poor venous access or intolerance of phlebotomy.

Data Sharing
- IPD Sharing
- Will share
- Time Frame
- Once a subject signs the consent form to allow for sharing, If any samples remain after all tests are completed, the samples will be stored for future research indefinitely or until the subject cancels consent to share.
- Access Criteria
- Only investigators that the study team collaborates with will have access to samples. Data will not include any information that is identifying.
Information of any type may be shared with researchers at other institutions. Subjects will be made aware of this in the informed consent form.
