Summary

Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is a group of inflammatory rheumatic conditions with inflammatory back pain caused by inflammation in the sacroiliac joints (SIJ) and back as hallmark.

Currently, no laboratory test or biomarker is cable of differentiating between patients with early-stage axSpA and persisting low back pain of other causes.

The objective of this study is to investigate the predictive value of baseline levels of the biomarkers Complement C3d and high-sensitive C-reactive protein (HsCRP) identifying bone marrow oedema (BME) at MRI of the SIJ at baseline.
