With WP1, we’re studying the long-term health outcomes of people living with multiorgan autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. By building on a cohort of patients with multiorgan inflammatory disorders anchored around skin diseases such as psoriasis and Hidrosadenitis Suppurativa established in 2019 to 2022, we want to better understand:
This research will help shape more personalised treatment strategies and guide future clinical care.
WP1 is creating a robust foundation for the DREAM Center.
By providing insights into and prognostic markers for long-term health outcomes, we will help:
Most importantly, this work ensures that patients with complex autoimmune and inflammatory diseases get the right care, at the right time, for better long-term health.
We will perform a clinical follow-up study on the patients from the 2019-2022 cohort. We will invite the patients to a clinical follow-up visit, where we will not only examine their present health but also ask for biosamples to be analysed in WP2.
Examination and biosampling will include:
Together, this forms the basis of a dedicated patient cohort for multiorgan autoinflammatory diseases (MAID). This cohort will not only strengthen current research but also serve as a foundation for future clinical trials.
Between 2019 and 2022, 213 patients took part in a clinical trial. They received either a multidisciplinary treatment protocol (MDT) or standard care. Clinical data, biological samples, and patient-reported outcomes were collected and stored in a secure database and biobank.
Now, by collecting new data from the same patients 3–6 years later, we can track:
