Official Title: Efficacy and Safety of Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT) in Patients With Peripheral Psoriatic Arthritis: A 6-month, Double-Blinded, Randomized Placebo-Controlled Tri

Brief Summary: An abnormal intestinal microbiota may be the mediator of the common inflammatory pathways seen in psoriatic arthritis. This study will explore clinical aspects associated with modifying the intestinal microbiota by infusing fecal donor microbiota into the small intestine of psoriatic arthritis patients with a minimum of three swollen joints despite at least three months of methotrexate treatment.
