Filter by:The study examines whether hand exercise therapy as an add on to a compensatory intervention program focused on joint protection, assistive devices and alternative methods of doing will improve the performance of ADL tasks requiring hand function in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Remission is nowadays an achievable objective for Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) patients thanks to a large choice of therapies, early treatment and tight control (30% relapse). Ultrasound (US) driven-therapy, complemented with a clinico-biological follow-up, may improve the prognosis of RA in remission by increasing the duration of sustained remission and by preventing radiographic structural progression. The tested hypothesis is: The US coverage of RA allows to increase the duration of sustained clinical remission.
This is a prospective, randomized, multicenter clinical study to compare the safety and efficacy of TC-A PS total knee system with TC-PLUS Solution PS total knee system in Chinese subjects.
Primary Objective: The primary objective of this trial is to establish an equivalence in efficacy between BI 695501 and US-licensed Humira® in patients with active Rheumatoid arthritis based on a statistical comparison of the proportion of patients meeting American College of Rheumatology 20% (ACR20) response rate at Week 12 and ACR20 response rate at Week 24 between BI 695501 and US-licensed Humira®. Secondary Objectives: The secondary objectives of this trial are to compare the efficacy, safety and immunogenicity of BI 695501 and US-licensed Humira® in patients with active RA including those undergoing the transition from US-licensed Humira® to BI 695501 after 24 weeks.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the influence of anti tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) treatment on blood pressure, endothelial function and immune cell phenotype in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis.
The purpose of this study was to assess the results of a Total Knee prosthesis specifically intended to enhance functional performance , especially in terms of physical and sports activity.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate quality of life, degree of disability, treatment patterns and economic impact of hand and knee Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis in Mexico.
The progression of structural joint damage is the leading cause of disability and socioeconomic costs associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Remission and low clinical activity not always imply absence of progression of structural damage. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the progression of radiological damage in early RA patients currently treated with disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) and low disease activity to which treatment with zoledronic acid is added. The investigators propose a randomized clinical trial in 94 patients with RA of less than 2 years of evolution that, being treated with DMARDs, present criteria of low disease activity (DAS28 < 3.2). Patients will be randomized into two branches: zoledronic acid and no treatment. The primary study endpoint is the progression of radiological damage assessed in a blinded way by the difference in the Sharp-van der Heijde index (SHI) in radiographs of hands and feet after two years; the secondary variables: radiographic progression after one year, serum bone biomarkers (OPG, RANKL, DKK-1 and sclerostin) and adverse effects. In a subgroup of patients, the investigators shall evaluate the change in the size of hand erosions by multislice computed tomography and the evolution of periarticular osteoporosis and systemic bone mass by dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA).
The primary endpoint of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of anxiety and depressive disorders, and their relationship with disease activity, in patients with rheumatoid arthritis treated with biological drugs
Primary Objective: To evaluate the immunogenicity of sarilumab administered as monotherapy. Secondary Objectives: - To evaluate the other safety aspects of sarilumab administered as monotherapy. - To assess the exposure of sarilumab administered as monotherapy.
