2013 - sluttrapport
Leddgikt og beslektede sykdommer rammer 1-2 prosent av befolkningen og fører blant annet til smerter og progredierende funksjonstap. Heldigvis er det de siste årene kommet bedre evidensbaserte behandlingsstrategier. Forskningsgruppen i revmatologi har fremskaffet nye forskningsresultater som kommer pasientbehandlingen til gode. Forskningsgruppe i revmatologi har brukt forskningsmidlene i 2012 til å lønne stipendiater, styrke infrastruktur (statistiker, forskningssykepleiere, forskningskoordinator) og til drift (reagenser knyttet til translasjonsforskning, utstyr til å måle surrogatmarkører for kardiovaskulære endepunkter). Forskningsproduksjonen er omfattende og samtidig medvirker en rekke av forskningsgruppens deltakere i store internasjonale prosjekter. Fokus for forskningsgruppen er klinisk forskning på leddgikt og beslektede sykdommer som kan bidra til ny kunnskap av betydning for pasientbehandlingen. Følgende områder har hatt sterkest fokus: Tidlig artritt: Mer enn 1500 pasienter er inkludert og følges longitudinelt. Dette forskningsområdet er nå også integrert i regionalt forskningsnettverk (NOR-VEAC). Revmatoid artritt: Kliniske data fra ulike kohorter har gitt ny kunnskap om prediktorer for sykdomsforløp og remisjon som behandlingsmål. NOR-DMARD: Longitudinell multisenter observasjonsstudie av mer enn 12000 pasienter som starter sykdomsmodifiserende legemidler og som har resultert i flere viktige publikasjoner om behandlingseffekt, men også med relevans for helseøkonomi. En PhD stipendiat lønnes fra forskningsgruppemidlene leverer sitt PhD arbeid tidlig 2014. Fokus har vært bruk av biologiske legemidler ved psoriasisartritt og ankyloserende spondylitt. BEKHAM og SPACE: Pasienter med ankyloserende spondylitt følges longitudinelt i BEKHAM prosjektet med et økende fokus på kardiovaskulære endepunkter. En PhD stipendiat lønnet fra forskningsgruppemidlene leverer sitt PhD arbeid høsten 2014. Fokus har vært bruk av kardiovaskulær morbiditet hos pasienter med ankyloserende spondylitt. SPACE har fokus på tidlig diagnose inkludert ikke-radiografisk aksial spondyloartritt. Kardiovaskulære utfall: Pasienter er undersøkt med tanke på surrogatmarkører for kardiovaskulære endepunkter og flere nye prosjekter er startet, inkludert en intervensjonsstudie med statiner og en klinikk med fokus på forebygging kardiovaskulær sykdom. Genetiske markører og løselige biomarkører: Er undersøkt med tanke på sykdomsassosiasjon og prediktorer for sykdomsprogresjon og sykdomsutfall. Billedmodaliteter: Ultralyd og MR brukes som utfallsvariabler og prediktorer for sykdomsforløp, både ved artritt sykdommer og håndartrose. Rehabilitering og kliniske utfallsmål: Flere studier er gjennomført med fokus på kartlegging av pasienters funksjonsnivå innenfor ulike dimensjoner av helse, og kontrollerte intervensjonsstudier er gjennomført for bl.a. å undersøke effekt av livsstyrketrening. En stor multisenter RCT – ARCTIC – er startet og sammenlikner et klinisk og et ultralyd styrt behandlingsmål (to strategier) med tanke på senere progresjon av beindestruksjon (inklusjon fullført med 11 deltakende sentra i Norge). En nedtrappingsstudie for biologiske legemidler hos pasienter i remisjon er også startet (ARCTIC-REWIND). Prosjektene som gjennomføres har generelt gitt ny kunnskap om prediktorer for ulike typer sykdomsforløp og styrket muligheter for individualisert behandling. I tidlig artritt prosjektet og i rehabiliteringsprosjekter har man etablert et samarbeid med primærhelsetjenesten og med brukere som kan ha overføringsverdi til andre deler av helsevesenet. Ny kunnskap fra NOR-DMARD når det gjelder betydning av tidlig behandling og på lavere sykdomsaktivitetsnivå har betydning fordi man oppnår bedre resultater (høyere remisjonsrate). Disse funnene har overføringsverdi til andre miljøer både nasjonalt og internasjonalt. Innenfor billeddiagnostikk er det utviklet nye validerte skåringssystemer som er av betydning for ulike intervensjonsstudier. Den opprettede forebyggende hjerte-revma klinikken har vist at det er mulig å fokusere på inflammasjon og dessuten konvensjonelle risikofaktorer for kardiovaskulær sykdom hos pasienter med leddgikt og beslektede sykdommer, og etablere forebyggingstiltak knyttet til lipider, blodtrykk og livsstil. Vi mener at flere av prosjektene har ført til bedre behandlings rutiner som derfor kommer inn under innovasjonsbegrepet. Det gjelder for eksempel prosjekter innenfor tidlig artritt, rehabilitering, billedmodaliteter, kardiovaskulære komplikasjoner, ARCTIC, ARCTIC-REWIND og NOR-DMARD. Imidlertid har ikke prosjektene ført til innovasjonsrealisering som er nevnt nedenfor.
