Filter by:Abstract Background: It is documented that some patient education interventions, preferably with a behavioral component included, may improve pain, disability and moods Purpose of the study: the purpose of this study was to improve the quality of life and reduce pain in rheumatoid arthritis patients. Methods: Patients were allocated to a patient training intervention group and patient without training intervention group. Both groups received routine treatments while the patient training intervention group, in addition to the routine treatments received training booklets and participated in the training workshop. All the extracted data from the written questionnaire were collected and analyzed using SPSS software.
This multicenter, open-label study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of subcutaneously administered RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) as monotherapy or in combination with methotrexate or other non-biologic DMARDs in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis and an inadequate response to non-biologic DMARDs or to one anti-TNF. In Phase 1, all patients will receive RoActemra/Actemra 162 mg subcutaneously (sc) weekly for Weeks 1 to 24, with or without methotrexate or other non-biologic DMARDs. For Part 2, patients who achieve sustained clinical DAS28-ESR remission at Weeks 20 and 24 will be randomized to receive RoActemra/Actemra 162 mg sc either weekly or every 2 weeks for Weeks 24 to 48, with or without methotrexate or other non-biologic DMARDs. Patients who do not achieve sustained clinical remission but achieve low disease activity (DAS-ESR </= 3.2) will continue the initial treatment of RoActemra/Actemra 162 mg sc weekly for Weeks 24 to 48, with or without methotrexate or other non-biologic DMARDs.
This study is in two stages: Stage 1 purpose is to assess safety, tolerability, and efficacy of multiple TAB08 doses in patients with active Rheumatoid Arthritis in which methotrexate (MTX) treatment is not enough effective. Stage 2 purpose is to assess efficacy parameters (ACR criteria) of at least one selected TAB08 dose in extended patient population with active Rheumatoid Arthritis in which methotrexate (MTX) treatment with at least 10 mg/week is not enough effective.
This open-label, single-arm study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of RoActemra/Actemra alone or concomitant with other antirheumatic drugs when administered as a single, weekly injection in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
This multi-center, open-label, single-arm, Phase IIIb study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of RoActemra/Actemra alone or in combination with non-biologic disease modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) in rheumatoid arthritis patients with an inadequate response to non-biologic DMARDs
The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between anti-drug antibodies, serum drug concentrations, and clinical response for rheumatoid arthritis patients being treated with etanercept, adalimumab or infliximab.
The Physical Functioning Inventory (PFI) is a standardized patient reported outcome measure that assesses preclinical disability. Preclinical disability is a functional state in which people are still able to complete daily living tasks (e.g., walking, bathing) but are changing the frequency or modifying the way that they complete the tasks. The investigators have done some preliminary research using the PFI as an online monitoring tool (Richardson 2012), but further study is required to examine its psychometric properties and its suitability for use as a primary outcome measure. This measurement study has been designed to identify the optimal number of items on the PFI and to determine the reliability, validity, and responsiveness of the PFI when administered to a sample of adults and older adults both with and without chronic conditions. This project will also allow us to evaluate the use of self-monitoring of physical function and the added value of rehabilitation professionals to support self-monitoring. Using the results of the PFI, the investigators aim to develop a "tailored" population-based rehabilitation self-management intervention delivered through a secure messaging system in the patient's electronic personal health record (myOSCAR) that focuses on the early detection and prevention of preclinical disability.
CC-292 is an oral agent that is under clinical development for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis an autoimmune inflammatory disorder. This study will test the clinical effectiveness and safety of an orally (PO) administered dose of CC-292 compared to placebo in US female patients currently on background Methotrexate (MTX) with active Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA
To evaluate the inhibitory effect of progression, compared with placebo, in joint destruction by AMG 162 administered subcutaneously to rheumatoid arthritis participants.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness and safety of ABP 501 against Adalimumab (Humira®) in adult subjects with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who have an inadequate response to methotrexate (MTX).
