  • COLIPSO –Co-prevalence of liver disease in psoriatic disease

    Organisation or institution: University of Oxford.

    Main study contact: Lija James

    or  through QR code registration

    Description of activity: We are looking for people to join our patient partner group for the COLIPSO study. This study will investigate the extent of liver disease in psoriatic disease. Patients with psoriatic disease have a much higher risk of developing non-alcoholic liver disease. 

    This causes significant impact on their life and is a difficult clinical problem as some therapies for psoriasis and arthritis may worsen the liver disease.  Previously the only tests available have been blood tests (which are often normal until the liver is quite damaged) or a liver biopsy (an invasive and risky procedure which only takes a very small sample of the liver).

    Our colleagues have developed and tested a new type of MRI scan which can measure inflammation and scarring in the liver allowing us to study liver disease in detail.

    We want to use this new technology to study the proportion of people with psoriasis who also have associated liver disease and measure how severe this is.  We will use blood and stool samples to study why and how the liver disease develops in many people with psoriatic disease. 

    We will repeat the scans and research samples after 6 months on a new treatment to see how common psoriasis treatments affect both inflammation and scarring in liver disease.

    Recruit criteria: Individuals with a diagnosis of psoriatic arthritis.

    Main study contact: Dr. Marleen van de Sande

    Public contact details: kir@amsterdamumc.nl

    Description of activity: Up to 1 in 3 people who have psoriasis can go on to develop a related arthritis causing joint pain and disability.

    Researchers are exploring whether it might be possible to treat people who have psoriasis to reduce their risk of developing psoriatic arthritis.

    This survey aims to understand what medications or lifestyle changes would be acceptable to people with psoriasis to reduce their chances of developing psoriatic arthritis in the future.

    Understanding patients’ preferences is important to ensure future treatments of this kind are efficient and acceptable to patients. This survey is a one-time questionnaire that should not take longer than 20 minutes to complete. Participation is voluntary, and all responses to the survey will remain confidential and anonymous.

    This study is in collaboration with Dr. Laura Coates (Principal investigator, Associate Professor, rheumatologist Oxford), Dr. Marie Falahee (Lecturer in Behavioral Rheumatology, University of Birmingham), Dr. Jorien Veldwijk (Assistant-professor, Erasmus School of Health Policy & Management), Prof. Stephen Pennington (Professor Of Proteomics, University College Dublin) and Prof. Oliver FitzGerald (Newman Clinical Research Professor, University College Dublin).
