Description of activity: The BSR-PsA register is a long-term observational study which aims to investigate the impact of psoriatic arthritis on patients’ quality of life and to monitor the effectiveness and safety of treatments. There are two main forms of data collection: (1) Clinical data collected from a patient’s medical notes; and (2) Questionnaires completed by study participants. Some patients may also be asked to donate some blood and urine samples for storage in a biobank.
Recruit criteria: People with a diagnosis of PsA who meet the CASPAR criteria
Where? UK hospitals who are a participating centre. Please ask your local rheumatology team if they are a recruiting site.
Time commitment: Annual questionnaire completion, and at 3 and 6 months if a patient is starting a new biologic therapy.
Closing date: December 2025, but recruitment may be extended.
Other information: If your local rheumatology service is a recruiting site, they will assess whether you are eligible for the study. Please see the Patient Information Sheet for more information.
