About this study

Official title: Body Composition and Bone Mineral Density in Patients With Psoriatic Arthritis and Changes After 6 Months of Treatment With Ustekinumab

There is not much body composition and bone mineral density data available for patients with psoriatic arthritis (rheumatoid arthritis) compared to control subjects.

The evaluation of the total fat mass and in particular of its abdominal distribution (visceral adiposity) is important because an excessive adiposity generates adverse effects on the health (hypertension, dyslipidemia, cardiovascular risk and resistance to the insulin).

Read more

In addition, data on changes in body composition and bone mineral density were not available under a new psA treatment, namely ustekinumab (anti-IL12 / 23 antibody).

It is proposed to conduct a pilot study to evaluate body composition, distribution (visceral adiposity) and bone mineral density in patients with psoriatic arthritis (versus control subjects) and their changes after 6 months of treatment with ustekinumab

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Bone mineral density (BMD)Procedure or surgery

    The bone mineral density (BMD) performed by DXA, which will allow the analysis of bone density (mg / cm²) at the lumbar spine (BMD L1 to L4) and the total hip (non-dominant).

    This examination will also allow an analysis of the body composition at the same time (lean mass, fat mass and bone mass for the whole body).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Visceral adiposity (VAT)

    Comparison at baseline of visceral adiposity (VAT) in cm² between PsA (n = 30) and healthy volunteers (n = 30) matched on age (± 5 years, ≥ 18 years), sex, menopausal status for women and body mass index (BMI, ± 3 kg / m²).

    Measured: At baseline

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Total lean mass

    Comparison at baseline of total lean mass (TLM, kg), between PsA (n = 30) and healthy volunteers (n = 30) matched on age (± 5 years, ≥ 18 years), sex, menopausal status for women and body mass index (BMI, ± 3 kg / m²).

    Measured: At baseline

  2. Total fat mass

    Comparison at baseline of total fat mass (TBF, %) between PsA (n = 30) and healthy volunteers (n = 30) matched on age (± 5 years, ≥ 18 years), sex, menopausal status for women and body mass index (BMI, ± 3 kg / m²).

    Measured: At baseline

  3. Bone mineral density

    Comparison at baseline of bone mineral density (BMD, g/cm²) between PsA (n = 30) and healthy volunteers (n = 30) matched on age (± 5 years, ≥ 18 years), sex, menopausal status for women and body mass index (BMI, ± 3 kg / m²).

    Measured: At baseline

  4. Change in total fat mass (TBF, %) under ustekinumab in PsA

    Measured: at baseline and at 6 months (± 2 months)

  5. Change in total lean mass (TLM, kg) under ustekinumab in PsA

    Measured: at baseline and at 6 months (± 2 months)

  6. Change in visceral adiposity (cm²) under ustekinumab in PsA

    Measured: at baseline and at 6 months (± 2 months)

  7. Change in bone mineral density (BMD, g/cm²) under ustekinumab in PsA

    Measured: at baseline and at 6 months (± 2 months)

  8. Change in makers of bone remodeling under ustekinumab in PsA

    C-telopeptide (Ctx), Procollagen type 1 amino-terminal propeptide (P1NP)

    Measured: at baseline and at 6 months (± 2 months)

  9. Change in leptin under ustekinumab in PsA

    Measured: at baseline and at 6 months (± 2 months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Psoriatic Arthritis, run by University Hospital, Lille at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Oct 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: logistic problems). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Visceral adiposity (VAT) (time frame: At baseline). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Oct 2022.
