sulfasalazine and Arthritis, Psoriatic

sulfasalazine has been researched along with Arthritis, Psoriatic in 62 studies

Sulfasalazine: A drug that is used in the management of inflammatory bowel diseases. Its activity is generally considered to lie in its metabolic breakdown product, 5-aminosalicylic acid (see MESALAMINE) released in the colon. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p907)
sulfasalazine : An azobenzene consisting of diphenyldiazene having a carboxy substituent at the 4-position, a hydroxy substituent at the 3-position and a 2-pyridylaminosulphonyl substituent at the 4'-position.

Arthritis, Psoriatic: A type of inflammatory arthritis associated with PSORIASIS, often involving the axial joints and the peripheral terminal interphalangeal joints. It is characterized by the presence of HLA-B27-associated SPONDYLARTHROPATHY, and the absence of rheumatoid factor.

Trial Overview

Trial Outcomes

Acute Phase C - Reactive Protein

"C-reactive protein (CRP) is a blood test marker for inflammation in the body. CRP is produced in the liver and its level is measured by testing the blood.~CRP is classified as an acute phase reactant, which means that its levels will rise in response to inflammation.~Change from Baseline in C-Reactive Protein." (NCT02980692)
Timeframe: Week 52

Change From Baseline in Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate

An erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) is a type of blood test that measures how quickly erythrocytes (red blood cells) settle at the bottom of a test tube that contains a blood sample. This test help determine if you have a condition that causes inflammation. (NCT02980692)
Timeframe: Week 52

Change From Baseline in Health Assessment Questionnaire- Disability Index

"eight categories assessed by the Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index 1) dressing and grooming, 2) arising, 3) eating, 4) walking, 5) hygiene, 6) reach, 7) grip and 8) common daily activities was scored as 0 (without any difficulty), 1 (with some difficulty), 2 (with much difficulty) or 3 (unable to do).~The score for the disability index is the mean of the 8 category scores. If more than 2 of the categories, or 25%, are missing, the scale is not scored. If fewer than 2 of the categories are missing, the sum of the categories is divided by the number of answered categories. A higher score indicates greater disability" (NCT02980692)
Timeframe: Week 52

Change From Baseline in Leeds Dactylitis Index (LDI)

"tenderness score (0 = no tenderness, 1 = tender, 2 = tender and wince, and 3 = tender and withdraw)~Total score= {[Circumference involved digit/ Circumference contralateral Digit (or Tables)] - 1x 100}x Tenderness score~Standard reference: Hands Digit Men Women Thumb 70 58 Index 63 54 Middle 63 54 Ring 59 50 Little 52 44 Standard reference: Feet Digit Men Women Great Toe 82 72 Second 52 46 Middle 50 44 Fourth 50 44 Little 52 45~The difference between circumference of affected finger and contralateral not affected digit cannot be defined for maximum value. Therefore, it is difficult to provide scale range for the final score. No theoretical range exists for the Leeds Dactylitis Index.~Lower Leeds Dactylitis Index score represent better outcome." (NCT02980692)
Timeframe: Week 52

Change From Baseline in Leeds Enthesitis Index (LEI)

"The LEI examines tenderness at 6 sites:~2 sites (left and right) at each of the lateral epicondyles of the humerus, medial condyles of the femur and the insertion of the Achilles tendon. For each entheseal site, assessment is made of the adjacent joint in terms of tenderness and soft-tissue swelling, with a score of 1 if present. The LEI score range is 0-6.~Lower the score better is the outcome" (NCT02980692)
Timeframe: Week 52
