Efficacy Of Upadacitinib In Psoriatic Arthritis And Comparison To Rheumatoid Arthritis.

The general objective of the OPTIMA study is to assess the time course and interrelationship of imaging (ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging), clinical, laboratory, and Patient Reported Outcome variables in patients with active Psoriatic Arthritis (any subset) and Rheumatoid Arthritis starting therapy with a Jak-Inhibitor (Upadacitinib), during the first 6 months of follow-up. Participants will be evaluated at the start of therapy with upadacitinib and during the follow-up visits at 2 weeks, 1, 3, and 6 months post-treatment initiation. At each visit (with the exception of the 2-weeks visit), data relating to the clinical evaluation, laboratory tests, and ultrasound of the affected joints will be collected according to standard clinical practice; questionnaires on disease activity will also be completed. In the case of axial involvement, a magnetic resonance imaging will be performed at baseline and after 6 months of therapy, only if required by the standard of care.
