Filter by:This is a study which will look at safety, feasibility and acceptability of a new therapy called tolerogenic dendritic cells (TolDC), derived from the patient's own white blood cells, which will be injected into the knee joints of rheumatoid arthritis patients, using a procedure called arthroscopy (a camera examination of a joint). The investigators are also looking to see if the drug has any effect on the disease activity (if it can help in RA) and whether the drug can affect the immune system. The investigators aim to treat 12 patients in total, 9 with TolDC and 3 with a control treatment. Three doses of TolDC will be tested, 3 patients per dose. Subjects will have RA and at least one swollen knee joint. They will undergo a knee ultrasound scan, fill in a series of questionnaires, have their knee aspirated (fluid taken out) and finally undergo a procedure called leukapheresis (removal of white blood cells) from which the treatment will be manufactured. Subsequently they will undergo 3 arthroscopies (camera examination of the knee joint) over a period of about 12 weeks. On the first arthroscopy they will have the TolDC injected into their knee joint. They will then spend the night at the Clinical Research facility for observation. Over the next 5 days they will be telephoned daily by the study doctor to check how they are, and will be reassessed if needed. About 2 weeks later they will have their second arthroscopy to look for effects of treatment, and the third will take place at 13 weeks (end of study) or sooner if the knee appears to get worse.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of sub-cutaneous (SC) abatacept provides any structural benefit in patients with rheumatoid arthritis who have failed prior use of TNF therapy.
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of secukinumab when added to a background therapy in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis who are intolerant to or have had an inadequate response to anti-TNF-α agents.
24 week open-labeled extension study to continue monitoring the same group of patients in the previous MRA230TW phase IIIb trial in order to evaluate the long term efficacy and safety of tocilizumab.
The main objective of this study was to determine the ability to maintain response after discontinuation of adalimumab treatment and the secondary objective was to determine radiographic progression in participants participating in the study, including the percentage who displayed minimal progression.
Study Objectives As special investigation (PMOS/non-mandatory) of HUMIRA® subcutaneous injection 40 mg syringe 0.8 mL (generic name: Adalimumab) will be performed to examine the following (1) and (2) for correlation between baseline and follow-up by clinical observation 48 weeks (planned visit time; before the start of treatment, and at 12, 24, 36, and 48 weeks, 4 data collection points) in Japanese rheumatoid arthritis patients who are engaged in paid work and home work. 1. The primary objective; Situation of work productivity using the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment/General Health questionnaire and functional impairment (daily life activity) using the Modified Health Assessment Questionnaire when HUMIRA® treatment. 2. The secondary objective; Clinical observation and rate of improvement of the Disease Activity Score 28 when HUMIRA® treatment. Situation of the occurrence of adverse events definition during the course of the observation period while HUMIRA® treatment, other factors considered to affect the safety and effectiveness.
The purpose of this study is to characterize CD86 receptor occupancy in subjects with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) receiving abatacept.
This observational study will evaluate the dosage patterns, safety and efficacy of RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) in clinical practice in patients with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis who have not responded or are intolerant to at least one disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD) or TNF inhibitor. Data will be collected from each patients for 12 months.
This observational study will assess the efficacy and safety of RoActemra/Actemra (Tocilizumab) in smoking versus non-smoking patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Data from patients treated in routine clinical practice with intravenous RoActemra/Actemra will be collected for 12 months each.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the drug interaction between fostamatinib and rifampicin by comparing the safety, tolerability and plasma concentration of fostamatinib when administered alone and with rifampicin in healthy subjects
