Filter by:Infliximab and other TNF-inhibitors have revolutionised the treatment of several immunological inflammatory diseases. Still, more than half of the patients either do not respond sufficiently to infliximab therapy or loose efficacy over time. The large individual variation in the serum drug concentrations on standard doses and the development of anti-drug antibodies are thought to be main reasons for these treatment failures. An individualised treatment strategy based on systematic assessments of serum drug concentrations, therapeutic drug monitoring, has been proposed as a clinical tool to optimise efficacy of infliximab treatment. Therapeutic drug monitoring seems reasonable both from a clinical and an economical point of view, but the effectiveness of this treatment strategy still remain to be shown. The NOR-DRUM study is planned as a national, randomised controlled multicentre trial in two parts aiming to assess the effectiveness of therapeutic drug monitoring in order to achieve remission in patients with immunological inflammatory diseases starting infliximab treatment (part A) and in order to maintain disease control in patients on maintenance infliximab treatment (part B). The results of the NOR-DRUM study will hopefully contribute to an implementation of a personalised medicine approach to treatment with infliximab and other biological drugs.
This is a study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of different doses of bimekizumab in subjects with active Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS).
National, prospective, multicentre observational study designed for eligible patients treated with Inflectra. Its objectives are to describe under real conditions of use, the profile of patients treated with Inflectra and the response to treatment.
Purpose: With the existing biologic anti-inflammatory product patents expiring and the FDA approval of new biosimilar and innovator biologics, patients with rheumatologic (RA), psoriatic (PsO-PsA-AS), and gastrointestinal (GI) conditions will have additional therapeutic options. This observational study will describe the patient characteristics of new users of Tumor Necrosis Factor-α (TNF) antagonists, non-TNF- α antagonists, oral DMARD, and non-biologic agents. It will describe in the treatment cohorts outcomes of serious infections that require hospitalization. The BBCIC will use the findings from this descriptive analysis to design a comparative study evaluating the real-world effectiveness and safety of biosimilar and innovator anti-inflammatory biologics.
Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a rheumatoid disease affecting all segments of the axial skeleton, leading to the complete fusion of all spinal segments - the bamboo-spine. During the last decade biological disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (bDMARD) have been successfully introduced to reduce the disease activity. It is unclear whether bDMARD treatment had an effect on spinal fracture risk related to AS. This national registry study will investigate the effect of bDMARD treatment on spinal fracture risk in a national cohort of patients with AS.
BCD-085-3 is a next step in clinical investigation of BCD-085. BCD-085 is a monoclonal antibody to interleukin 17. During the trial patients with active ankylosing spondylitis will receive 40, 80 or 120 mg of BCD-085 subcutaneously at weeks 0, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12. Efficacy and safety parameters will be evaluated.
This study assessed the clinical Assessment of SpondyloArthritis international Society (ASAS) 20 response to secukinumab and evaluated to which extent concomitant nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) treatment can be reduced in patients treated with secukinumab or placebo following an initial run-in phase of stable NSAID therapy.
BCD-055-2 is international multi-center comparative double-blind randomized clinical trial to evaluate efficacy and safety of BCD-055 (JSC "BIOCAD", Russia) and Remicade® in patients with ankylosing spondylitis. BCD-055 is biosimilar of infliximab (JSC "BIOCAD", Russia)
To evaluate the impact of treatment with a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) - Celecoxib - when added to anti-tumour necrosis factor (TNF) therapy - Golimumab - as compared to anti-TNF therapy (Golimumab) alone on progression of structural damage in the spine over two years in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS).
The objective of this post-marketing observational study (PMOS) was to evaluate the effectiveness of adalimumab plus the AbbVie Care 2.0 patient support program in participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), ankylosing spondylitis (AS), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), psoriasis (Ps), Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC) in the routine clinical setting in Hungary.
