Determinants of Chronic Inflammatory Skin Disease Trajectories
Official title: Determinants of Chronic Inflammatory Skin Disease Trajectories
Status: Recruiting now
Description:
Although it is well known that the clinical expression and course of chronic inflammatory skin diseases are highly variable, there are insufficient epidemiological data on this, and the factors that determine the manifestation, clinical features and course are also largely unknown. There are currently no reliable markers that could predict or delineate patient subgroups to support patient management. The aim of this project is to identify clinical and molecular factors that correlate with disease, disease subtypes and progression through in-depth long-term clinical characterization of patients with chronic inflammatory skin diseases and examination of individual biomaterials.
What is being studied: drug — Topical and systemic drugs.
Who can take part: ages 0 Years to 80 Years, 1000 participants planned.
Enrollment status: Open now. The study started 01 May 2023 and is expected to finish 31 December 2032.
