This is a randomized, double-blind, multicentral clinical trial to investigate the efficacy and safety of Fengshigutong Capsule in the treatment of active ankylosing spondylitis(AS). The primary purpose is to assess the different maintaining treatment programme in AS patients with controlled inflammation by Imrecoxib. The trial will include 180 patients who will be divided into three group: Fengshigutong Capsule plus Imrecoxib group, Imrecoxib group and Fengshigutong Capsule group. Patients will complete the 4-week therapy.
The purpose of the study is to demonstrate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of bimekizumab administered subcutaneously (sc) compared to placebo in the treatment of subjects with active ankylosing spondylitis (AS).
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of filgotinib on semen parameters in adult males with active rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, or non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis. Results of this study may be pooled with the results of a separate study being conducted in participants with inflammatory bowel disease (Protocol GS-US-418-4279; NCT03201445) with the same objective.
Background: Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) is a chronic, inflammatory rheumatic disease that effects primarily axial-spine. Reduction of flexibility and mobility is important factors that can cause muscle weakness, impairment quality of life, reduction of exercise tolerance and pulmonary capacity with the progression of AS. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of pilates exercises on mobility, quality of life and respiratory muscle strength in patients with AS. Methods: Forty patients will be included who are aged between 18-55 years and got diagnosed according to Modified New York criterias.Patients will be divided into two groups randomly. Pilates training will be performed to the treatment group and conventional exercises will be performed to the control group during 8 weeks. Respiratory muscle strength, quality of life, spinal mobility, thorax expansion, respiratory functions, physical activity level, exercise capasity and disease activity will be evaluated at first session and at the end of the 8th week in this study.
Our clinical study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of osteoporosis (OP) in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and to investigate the relationship between clinical, disease activity, physical function and disease duration, and bone mineral density (BMD).
Patient Power is a patient research network and database (registry) to collect prospective information about demographics, self-reported diagnoses and medications, and willingness to participate in research from participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), spondyloarthritis (SpA), other musculoskeletal conditions, chronic neurological conditions like migraine, chronic pulmonary conditions like Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), asthma, autoimmune dermatological conditions such as psoriasis, and other chronic inflammatory or immune-mediated conditions. In addition, since patients with chronic conditions often have other co-morbidities like cardiovascular health and obesity-related metabolic disorders, these conditions will also be included. Participants will provide information from their smartphones or personal computers. The information will be used by researchers and clinicians to help patients and their providers make better, more informed decisions about treatment of chronic conditions.
This study evaluates the intestinal microbiome and disease activity in patients with spondyloarthropathies receiving immunosuppressive therapy. Patients will be analysed at two time points in reference to two predefined primary endpoints: - Changes in intestinal microbiome - Response to therapy The investigators want to evaluate if successful treatment of spondylarthropathy coincide with specific changes in the gut flora.
To assess the efficacy and safety of loxoprofen sodium hydrogel patch (LX-P) versus loxoprofen sodium tablet (LX-T) in patients with active ankylosing spondylitis(AS). The trial includes 70 patients who are randomly assigned to either the LX-P group (LX-P 100 mg per day) or LX-T group (LX-T 60 mg t.i.d.) for 4 weeks.
FoLoMI is a pilot study in which the investigators will seek to determine if gait spatio-temporal and kinematic parameters can explain the evolution of a functional score, the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI), at 18 months. The secondary objectives are: (1) to study the relationship between gait parameters measured at T0 and the BASFI at T0, (2) to study the relationship between gait parameters at T0 and the BASDAI at T0, (3) to assess general state of health of the patients and its evolution by appreciating: level of physical activity, state of fatigue, diurnal sleepiness and quality of life, and (4) to compare spatio-temporal gait parameters between patients and healthy controls.
