About this study

Official title: IDBV: Inflammation Digital Biomarker Validation Study

HIPPOCRATES is an Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI) funded EU Consortium established to address key unmet clinical needs in psoriatic disease. As part of the project, the HIPPOCRATES Prospective Observational Study (HPOS) is a study of patients with psoriasis which is recruiting across Europe. The study is led by a research team at University of Oxford and supported by a team at University College Dublin. This current study aims to identify people with psoriasis who are at risk of developing psoriatic arthritis. Up to one-third of patients with psoriasis will develop a related arthritis causing inflammation in the joints and tendons. The investigators want to identify which patients will develop arthritis with the long-term and ambitious aim of trying to prevent the development of arthritis before it occurs. The HPOS study is currently recruiting/approaching adults with psoriasis and asking study participants to complete questionnaires every 6 months via a dedicated study website. The questionnaires include a 'screening questionnaire' to try to identify arthritis.

Adults with psoriasis but without a pre-existing diagnosis of PsA are currently being recruited via clinics, national and international patient support organisations including those under the umbrella of EUROPSO, and media campaigns. Participants are recruited across Europe in the following countries: UK, Ireland, Italy, France, Spain, Denmark, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, Sweden, Portugal, Greece, Norway, Switzerland, Poland and Romania. The University of Oxford is the sponsor for the study across all countries, but local regulations will be followed, and local ethical approval has been sought for each different country. Data is requested from participants every 6 months and they will be prompted by email.

Likewise, the iPROLEPSIS consortium is a Horizon Europe funded consortium investigating digital biomarkers in PsA. In 2024, the consortium launched a study recruiting 600 patients with PsA across 4 counties, utilising digital biomarkers to identify disease flares. This includes the use of smartwatches, a mobile phone app and active video tests. This will allow us to develop algorithms to identify active disease.

Similar approaches are proposed for a study called the Inflammation Digital Biomarkers Study (IDBV) which will try to identify the onset of PsA in people living with psoriasis. Patients in HPOS who have given consent to be contacted about additional studies, will be offered the opportunity to join this study. They will complete an additional consent form and will download the miPROLEPSIS lite app to their mobile phone.

The Study app will passively collect data from the user's phone; participants do not need to perform any specific tasks apart from some initial configuration steps like logging in and connecting their wearables (Connecting a wearable is optional).

The investigators intend to run IDBV as a sub-study in HPOS and invite participants enrolled into the HPOS study who do not have a diagnosis of PsA.

What is being measured

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

  1. Presence of IMID-Specific Joint or Tendon Inflammation

    Presence of inflammation to evaluate the performance of smartphone-/smartwatch-based AI-driven digital biomarkers and predictive models (developed in PDPID study) in the detection of Immune Mediated Inflammatory Disease (IMID) specific joint or tendon inflammation

    Measured: From enrolment for 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Psoriatic Arthritis and Psoriasis (PsO), run by University of Oxford.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 May 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Contact Laura C Coates (+441865737838, laura.coates@ndorms.ox.ac.uk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Presence of IMID-Specific Joint or Tendon Inflammation (time frame: From enrolment for 12 months). 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 22 May 2026.
