Clinical Pharmacology Study Group (CPSG) Announces Open Enrollment for Psoriatic Arthritis

Worcester, MA, July 31, 2010 --(PR.com)-- The Clinical Pharmacology Study Group (CPSG) is currently participating in several clinical trials for psoriatic arthritis in its Worcester, MA facility.

Subjects who enroll in a clinical trial are carefully selected from a list of inclusion and exclusion criteria designed to ensure safety for the subject. Patients’ selected to participate in this study are followed by a team of experts in psoriatic arthritis. All study related medications and care are at no cost to the patient. The study group works closely with the patient care provider (PCP), or other specialist, to ensure that all the medical professionals are involved in the treatment of the patient.

Psoriatic arthritis is an arthritis that is often associated with psoriasis of the skin but can occur without psoriasis. The main symptoms are stiffness, pain in the joints, skin rash or redness that is itchy, cracking and often times skin lesions. Psoriatic arthritis affects men, women and children. This study is designed for adults and addresses three types of joint pain associated with psoriatic arthritis: asymmetrical, symmetrical and distal interphalangial.

“Total patient care is our top priority at CPSG. We educate and treat the individual about the disease and the study. If our medical team concludes that the patient would be better served with an alternative medical treatment, we will help coordinate that care for patients. We pride ourselves in offering superior patient care throughout the study,” stated Mary Coughlin, RN and Partner of CPSG.

About Clinical Pharmacology Study Group
The Clinical Pharmacology Study Group (CPSG) was established in 1989 in Worcester, Massachusetts by Doctor Birbara and Mary Coughlin, RN. The group has been involved in the field of rheumatology study since 1975. The practice has worked with traditional anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs) in conjunction with stomach protecting agents. The group has a history of working with Celebrex, Vioxx, Bextra, and other COX II inhibitors. In the late 1990's, we entered the era of biologicals for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

CPSG is continuing to expand work with biologicals in the areas of rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis and Chrohn's disease. CPSG is also participating in many new trials for fibromyalgia, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, gout, and lower back pain.
