Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Change From Baseline on the Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) Physical Component Summary (PCS)
SF-36 is a patient-reported outcome (PRO) measure evaluating a participant's health status. It comprises 36 items covering 8 domains: physical functioning, role physical, role emotional, bodily pain, vitality, social functioning, mental health, and general health. Items are answered on Likert scales of varying lengths. Items from 8 domains contribute to the PCS. The summary scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better levels of function and/or better health.
24 Weeks
Change From Baseline on the Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) Mental Component Summary (MCS)

Interventions
The intervention in this trial consists of the combined efforts of the interdisciplinary team in the combined clinic arm. The interdisciplinary team consists of dermatologists, gastroenterologists, rheumatologists, nurses, psychologists, dieticians, social workers, physiotherapists, and secretaries. Treatment will be individualized based on clinical, biomarker, phenotypic, and psychosocial characteristics. The medical treatment will follow local, national and international guidelines.
Usual care will be carried out by HCPs that are not otherwise involved in the trial. In usual care the patients will not be offered an interdisciplinary patient-centered care as described, but only attend their usual disease-specific departments at the usual appointments.Treatment will be prescribed as felt appropriate according to local, national and international guidelines by the treating physicians with no set protocol and no restrictions.
