Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic musculoskeletal inflammatory disease found in up to 30% of psoriasis patients. Prolargin-an extracellular matrix (ECM) protein present in cartilage and tendon-has been previously shown elevated in serum of patients with psoriasis. ECM protein fragments can reflect tissue turnover and pathological changes; thus, this study aimed to develop, validate and characterize a novel biomarker PROM targeting a matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-cleaved prolargin neo-epitope, and to evaluate it as a biomarker for PsA. A competitive ELISA was developed with a monoclonal mouse antibody; dilution- and spiking-recovery, inter- and intra-variation, and accuracy were evaluated. Serum levels were evaluated in 55 healthy individuals and 111 patients diagnosed with PsA by the CASPAR criteria. Results indicated that the PROM assay was specific for the neo-epitope. Inter- and intra- assay variations were 11% and 4%, respectively. PROM was elevated (p=0.0003) in patients with PsA (median: 0.24, IQR: 0.19-0.31) compared to healthy controls (0.18; 0.14-0.23) at baseline. AUROC for separation of healthy controls from PsA patients was 0.674 (95% CI 0.597-0.744, P
