The Group for Research and Assessment of Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis (GRAPPA) leadership congregated for a strategic planning meeting before the 2022 GRAPPA annual meeting in New York, USA. Meeting aims were to review GRAPPA's performance in relation to its 2016 goals and identify successes and areas for further improvement, identify key GRAPPA priorities and activities for the next 5 years, and explore committee structures to best support these aims.

How to Involve Patients in GRAPPA Research as Partners.

S.M. Grieb, PhD, GRAPPA Patient Research Partner, USA.

Patient research partners (PRPs) have been actively participating in the Group for Research and Assessment of Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis (GRAPPA) annual meetings, working groups, and research activities since 2013. As they have evolved, the PRPs operate as a cohesive group supported by their GRAPPA-approved handbook and policy documents. The number of involved PRPs has increased, allowing more opportunity for the incorporation of the patient voice and experience in GRAPPA activities.

At the 2021 Group for Research and Assessment of Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis (GRAPPA)-Collaborative Research Network (CRN) annual meeting, the GRAPPA-CRN group presented a number of project updates, including a pilot investigator-initiated study to evaluate liquid and tissue biomarkers associated with axial involvement in psoriatic arthritis (PsA). The GRAPPA-CRN session updated progress made with 3 parallel international research initiatives based on 3 previously defined unmet needs in PsA. The Health Initiatives in Psoriasis and PsOriatic arthritis ConsoRTium European States (HIPPOCRATES) is a European research consortium formed to address unmet clinical needs in PsA.

At the 2020 Group for Research and Assessment of Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis (GRAPPA)-Collaborative Research Network (CRN) annual meeting, the GRAPPA-CRN group presented a pilot investigator-initiated study protocol to test electronic case report forms (eCRFs) and proposed Standardized Operating Procedures (SOPs) to evaluate biomarkers of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) associated with axial disease. The progress on 3 studies was also presented: BioDAM PsA (Biomarkers as Predictors of structural DAMage in PsA; to validate soluble biomarkers as predictors of structural damage in PsA), PreventPsA (examining the development of PsA and risk factors among patients with psoriasis and no arthritis), and PredictORPsA (Predicting Treatment respOnse in patients with eaRly PsA; in collaboration with Pfizer using samples from the Oral Psoriatic Arthritis TriaL [OPAL], to identify biomarkers of treatment response). GRAPPA-CRN funding partnerships and applications are also underway with both the Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI) in Europe and Accelerating Medicines Partnerships (AMP) 2.
