  • Active PsA is defined as
  • TJC =4 and SJC =4 (66/68 joint count) and
  • DAS28 = 3,2
  • PsA according to CASPAR criteria
  • Presence of chest x-ray without signs of active or latent infection (esp. for tuberculosis) within the last 3 months prior to screening
  • Permitted pre-treatment of PsA with up to three biologic-agents, whereupon only one biologic agent must be withdrawn due to inadequate response.

  • Compliance of intake of MTX must be documented
  • For the group without MTX therapy: patients must be eligible for MTX treatment (according to SmPC) and have not failed prior MTX treatment for the treatment of PsA
