ABOUT THE STUDY

ABOUT THE STUDY

HPOS is a study of patients with psoriasis running across Europe. We want to identify which patients will develop arthritis with the long-term aim of trying to prevent the development of arthritis before it occurs.


This study will inform wider research efforts to:


  • diagnose psoriatic arthritis earlier and predict disease progression

  • develop new diagnostic tests

  • pioneer personalised therapies to prevent permanent, disabling joint damage
