RECRUITINGPhase 4INTERVENTIONAL

A Study of Guselkumab Administered Subcutaneously in Treatment of Indian Participants With Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA)

A Phase-IV, Multicenter, Non-Comparative, Open-Label Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Guselkumab Administered Subcutaneously in the Treatment of Indian Patients With Psoriatic Arthritis

A Study of Guselkumab Administered Subcutaneously in Treatment of Indian Participants With Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) (NCT07141004) is a Phase 4 interventional studying Arthritis, Psoriatic, sponsored by Johnson & Johnson Private Limited. RECRUITING as of the most recent ClinicalTrials.gov update. Talk to your doctor before contacting the trial site.

About This Trial

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and how well guselkumab treatment works (efficacy) in participants with psoriatic arthritis (PsA; a chronic, autoimmune form of arthritis that causes joint inflammation) who had inadequate response to standard therapies.

What Stage of Research Is This?

Phase 4 studies happen after a treatment has been approved by the FDA. They monitor long-term safety, real-world effectiveness, and any rare side effects that only emerge in larger populations over longer periods. Phase 4 results sometimes lead to label changes, additional warnings, or — rarely — withdrawal of approval.

This trial is currently recruiting participants. The sponsor has registered the study with ClinicalTrials.gov as actively enrolling, which means new applicants who meet the eligibility criteria can be considered for screening. Trial status can change between updates — confirm current recruiting status with the study contact before traveling for a screening visit.

Target enrollment of 100 participants puts this in the typical range for a Phase 2-style efficacy study or a moderate Phase 3 trial in a focused Arthritis, Psoriatic subpopulation. At this scale, the study has enough statistical power to detect a clear treatment effect but is not the largest cohort in the field.

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Who May Qualify: - Participants who have definite diagnosis of active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) (according to the ClASsification criteria for Psoriatic Arthritis \[CASPAR\]) prior to the first administration of study drug and have at least 1 of the PsA subsets: distal interphalangeal joint arthritis, polyarticular arthritis with the absence of rheumatoid nodules, arthritis mutilans, asymmetric peripheral arthritis, or spondylitis with peripheral arthritis - Participants who are negative for rheumatoid factors - Participants having inadequate response (defined by presence of active arthritis \[presence of any swollen or any tender joint\]) to standard therapies for 3 months at the highest recommended dose (e.g., conventional disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs \[DMARDs\] including methotrexate, apremilast, or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs \[NSAIDs\]), including biologics naïve patient or have failed, or were intolerant to one or more biological treatments \[anti-TNF/IL-17i\] - Participants are considered eligible per the following Tuberculosis (TB) screening criteria: 1. Have no history of TB prior to screening AND 2. Have no signs or symptoms suggestive of active TB upon medical history and/or physical examination AND 3. Have had no recent close contact with a person with active TB, or if there has been such contact, will be referred to a physician specializing in TB to undergo additional evaluation and, if warranted, receive appropriate treatment for latent TB prior to or simultaneously with the first administration of study drug AND ...See full criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.
