Filter by:This retrospective cohort study will analyze data from multiple large U.S. health insurance claims databases to compare use of tocilizumab to other biologic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) in real world patients with RA. Using the date of dispensing as the index date, the analysis will compute the time to first event for several cardiovascular outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the association of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)-related antibodies and periodontal inflammation in subjects at-risk for Rheumatoid Arthritis. Subjects will undergo periodontal and joint examinations, as well as collection of body fluids to measure Rheumatoid Arthritis-related antibodies.
This trial is designed to determine what effects the human body has on the investigational medicine, ABP 798, and what effects the body has on the investigational medicine after you have been given it, and if this is comparable to what is seen for the licensed medicine, rituximab, in patients with moderate or severe RA. This study will also assess if the investigational medicine is safe and effective in treating moderate or severe RA compared to the licensed medicine.
M2951 is an investigational drug under evaluation for treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory disorders. The purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy of M2951 in participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) currently treated with stable dose of methotrexate (MTX).
The purpose of this study is to determine whether VIB4920 (formerly MEDI4920) is safe and well tolerated in participants with adult-onset rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
This Phase IV clinical study is to Compare the Efficacy and Safety of CELBESTA® and CELEBREX® in Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients
Although RA pathomechanisms remains incompletely understood, periodontitis and RA share pathogenic features : genetic and environmental influences, chronic inflammatory disease, immunoregulatory imbalance, bacterial factors, persistence of antigen/peptide and clinical factors (conjunctive and hard tissues destruction). Several hypothesis can be evocated : Gram negative bacterial systemic spreading, inflammatory transmitter substance systemic spreading (IL1, IL6, IL17, PGE2), systemic spreading of bacterial degradation products (LPS for example). Currently Porphyromonas gingivalis (PG) might be a susceptibility factor to RA because PG has an enzyme, the peptidylarginine deiminase leading to auto antibodies creation and RA increasing. As periodontitis, RA is chronic disease with a cyclic increase evolution, needing a complex pluridisciplinary treatment approach. Recent studies have reported an increased prevalence of RA patients with periodontal disease. Others studies show that periodontal treatment induces a significant decrease of the sedimentation rate and of the DAS28. Periodontitis is suspected to be an independent, aggravating factor in patients with RA (given the definition from NIH : an aggravating factor is something that makes a condition worse). So periodontal treatment cannot be considered as a RA treatment per se. But it is hypothesised that treating periodontitis in RA patients showing signs of periodontitis could result in improvement in RA disease activity. To date the role of periodontitis as an aggravating factor in these patients remains unclear, and only RCT designs can reasonably be used to test this causal hypothesis. There still remains some RA patients who have persistent symptoms and frequent exacerbations despite specialist care and continuous treatment, so results of treating aggravating factors are needed. As the majority of patients will benefit from a systematic evaluation and treatment of aggravating factors, the periodontal treatment strategy need to be tested. The aim of this randomised controlled trial is to assess the effectiveness of periodontal treatment for rheumatoid arthritis patients. To assess the effectiveness of periodontal treatment to reduce the severity of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), in patients suffering from both periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis. The hypothesis is that periodontal treatment reduce the severity of rheumatoid arthritis.
This multicenter prospective clinical trial investigates the accuracy of ultrasound to predict relapse after discontinuation of infliximab and the efficacy/safety of readministration of infliximab in patients with rheumatoid arthritis in a low disease activity state.
BCD-055-3 is international multi-center comparative double-blind randomized clinical trial of efficacy and safety of BCD-055 (JSC "BIOCAD", Russia) and Remicade® in combination with methotrexate in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis.
The study is being conducted to assess the effect of BMS-986142 on the single-dose PK parameters of montelukast, flurbiprofen, omeprazole, midazolam, and digoxin, probe drugs for (cytochome P450) CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP3A4, and P-glycoprotein (P-gp), respectively.
