About this study

The Biorepository is a prospective observational cohort study for patients under the care of a licensed physician or qualified physician extender. Target minimum enrollment is approximately 3,000 patients within the first 5 years of the study with no defined upper limit of enrollment. Sites from Corrona's current North America network will be asked to participate.

Participating sites and subjects will not receive results from any laboratory testing conducted on the Samples. Personal identifying information will not be collected along with the Samples.

Subjects will provide informed consent to contribute Samples to include blood (serum, plasma, whole blood) to the Biorepository. In the future, Subjects may be asked to contribute other samples (i.e. saliva, urine, stool) and an additional informed consent will be obtained. Subjects will retain the right to withdraw their consent for use of their Samples at any time. In such case, Corrona will destroy any unused/remaining Samples in its possession.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of the study is to develop a biorepository of biological samples ("Samples") from eligible patients enrolled in the Corrona Rheumatology Registries (each, a "Registry", together the "Registries"), including but not limited to registries related to rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis and spondyloarthritis (PsA/SpA), osteoarthritis, and lupus (the "Biorepository"). Collected Samples will be biobanked for immediate or future analysis.

The Biorepository will be used for various purposes, including to support identification and validation of biomarkers predictive of drug toxicities, safety outcomes (e.g. infections, malignancies, autoimmunity, venous thromboembolism), or response to specific therapies used for the diseases studied in the Registries. Other objectives may include research on biomarkers that describe disease activity or phenotypic disease subsets, and research to understand mechanism of disease or comorbidities.

A wide array of testing methods may be used, such as DNA and RNA sequencing, targeted analysis to analyze protein, lipid, metabolite, small molecule or biologic assays, and/or other studies. Analysis of Samples may include testing for existing and commercially available laboratory measures or experimental analysis. Samples will be selected for testing depending on factors such as: the disease under study, qualifying treatment and/or cohort, patient characteristics, risk factors or disease activity indicators, and research questions.

The Biorepository study will seek to support research in various rheumatologic disease states through Sample analyses.

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Rheumatoid Arthritis, run by CorEvitas at 1 site in United States.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

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: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Feb 2026. 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 United States. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

1. Biospecimen (blood) Collection (time frame: every 6 months for 10 years). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 9 Feb 2026.
