Filter by:The purpose of this study is to understand the safety and effectiveness of infliximab when used in clinical practice. This is a post-marketing surveillance study.
Long term disease management is essential for Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS), a chronic progressive systemic inflammatory disease of the axial skeleton. Extensive information about the disease is a necessary first step. An education program for AS was implemented to improve inpatient medical rehabilitation. In a controlled quasi-experimental multicentric study the efficacy of this program was analysed.
This is a randomised, controlled, multi-centre clinical trial on AS patients. Experimental intervention: continuous (daily) treatment with diclofenac cholestyramine 150 mg (Voltaren Resinate), divided into 75mg Voltaren twice dailyControl intervention: treatment on-demand (as needed) with diclofenac-cholestyramine 75 to 150 mg (Voltaren Resinate). The treatment strategy of the control intervention (on-demand) reflects current clinical practice in AS. Duration of intervention per patient: 2 years Follow-up per patient: safety assessment 3 months after termination of the trial.
To evaluate efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of adalimumab in Japanese subjects with active ankylosing spondylitis
Tramadol 37.5 mg/APAP 325 mg combination tablets (ULTRACET®) were effective and safe as addon therapy with COX-2 NSAID for treatment of osteoarthritis (5) and chronic low back pain (6).There is no clinical trial regarding tramadol usage in chronic inflammatory arthritis such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or ankylosing spondylitis. It would be important to do a pilot clinical trial on add-on effect of tramadol to NSAID in patients with AS or RA.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate how well the autoinjector works in a group of people who are likely to use the autoinjector for injecting their medicine in the future. However, no active medicine is given by the autoinjector.
To prove that the efficacy and safety of Mucosta® (Rebamipide) is non-inferior to those of Cytotec® (Misoprostol), in terms of prevention of NSAID-induced gastric ulcer.
This study aims to provide a holistic assessment of patients receiving etanercept in a real-world setting.
There is a great individual variability of pharmacokinetic of infliximab in patients treated for ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Moreover, some patients have a treatment with methotrexate (MTX), others have not. Thus, the aim of this study is to assess the effect of MTX on the pharmacokinetic properties of infliximab in 30 patients treated for AS, 15 with MTX, 15 without.
Due to the rigor of the clinical development program of adalimumab for the indication of AS, the population of subjects with active AS that could enroll in previous phase 3 studies was limited. Therefore, it is necessary to further evaluate the use of adalimumab in a setting that mimics day-to-day clinical practice to obtain further safety and efficacy data by allowing subjects meeting the characteristics noted below to enter this study: - Subjects who failed another TNF inhibitor (etanercept, infliximab) - Subjects with advanced spinal ankylosis - Subjects with AS associated disorders (i.e., uveitis, IBD, and psoriasis)
