T Cells and TNF: The Impact of TNF Blockade on Effector T Cell Populations in Rheumatoid Arthritis and Other Conditions Treated With Anti-TNFalpha Agents
In Brief
An observational study evaluating anti-TNF therapy (etanercept or adalimumab) for Rheumatoid Arthritis and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 48 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
We aim to translate these findings into patients with rheumatoid arthritis and other conditions treated with anti-TNF (anti-tumor necrosis factor) therapy, such as psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis. Patients from rheumatology clinics within NHS (National Health Service) trusts will be recruited. We will correlate disease activity assessed by clinical parameters, ultrasonography, and questionnaires with biomarkers in the blood and target tissues, such as synovium and skin.
