Filter by:Participants suffering from active rheumatoid arthritis despite continued treatment with methotrexate were evaluated for improvement of disease activity (efficacy) when taking GLPG0634 (3 different doses - 50 milligram [mg], 100 mg and 200 mg daily -, each evaluated as once daily [QD] and twice daily [BID] regimen) or matching placebo for 24 weeks. •During the course of the study, patients were also examined for any side effects that could occur (safety and tolerability), and the amount of GLPG0634 present in the blood (Pharmacokinetics) as well as the effects of GLPG0634 on disease- and mechanism of action-related parameters in the blood (Pharmacodynamics) were determined. Also, the effects of different doses and dose regiments of GLPG0634 administration on participants' disability, fatigue, and quality of life were evaluated.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the long-term safety and any side effects of baricitinib in participants who have completed a previous baricitinib rheumatoid arthritis study. The study provides 7 years of additional treatment with baricitinib.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) dose reduction in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Remission is the treatment target in RA, but knowledge about the best way to treat RA patients who achieve sustained remission is limited. DMARDs have potential serious adverse events, and biologic DMARDs are costly to the society. The objectives for ARCTIC REWIND are to assess the effect of tapering and withdrawal of DMARDs on disease activity in RA patients in sustained remission, to study predictors for successful tapering and withdrawal of DMARDs in this patient group, and to study cost-effectiveness of different treatment options in RA remission. ARCTIC REWIND is a randomized, open, controlled, parallel-group, multicenter, phase IV, non-inferiority strategy study. Patients with less than five years of disease duration and stable remission for at least 12 months are randomized to either continued stable treatment or tapering and withdrawal of DMARDs, including tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors and synthetic DMARDs. Patients are assessed by clinical examination, patient reported outcome measures, ultrasonography, MRI and X-ray, and monitored for adverse events. The primary endpoint of the study is the proportion of patients who are non-failures (have not experienced a flare) at 12 months. Secondary endpoints include composite disease activity scores and remission criteria, joint damage and inflammation assessed by various imaging modalities, work participation, health care resource use and health related quality of life.
The purpose of this study is to determine if Sidus stem-free shoulder system is safe and effective when used in total shoulder replacement.
This is a Phase 1, single-dose, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation,multi-center, first time in human study of AMP-110 in adult subjects with rheumatoid arthritis.
This is a prospective non-interventional observational study to evaluate the treatment of moderately active RA patients in every day clinical practice in Austria. Patients will be observed over 52 weeks. The primary endpoint will be percentage of patients who reach CDAI remission after 24 weeks.
A review of the literature reveals that very few studies have assessed the potential co-existence of vitamin B12 deficiency due to gastric parietal cell autoantibodies. While Segal et al. in 2004 published a study which found that 49% of patients with RA had vitamin B12 deficiency, no assessment of the etiology or the presence of autoantibodies was made. While Goeldner et al. in 2011 and Datta et al. in 1990 demonstrated that anti-gastric parietal cell antibodies (anti-GPC Ab) were found in <5% to 28% of RA patients respectively, no additional testing was implemented to determine the significance, specifically whether or not the presence of anti-GPC Ab related to vitamin B12 deficiency. The purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence and metabolic significance of anti-GPC Ab in three cohorts: (1) a group of patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis, (2) a group of patients with autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD), and (3) a group of patients with neither RA or AITD. To determine the significance of the presence of anti-GPC Ab, testing of the current serum B12 level along with a metabolite dependent on adequate vitamin B12 levels (Methylmalonic acid) will be tested.
The study will estimate the preference of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and Plaque Psoriasis (PsO) patients who self inject etanercept for one of two experimental autoinjectors.
Osteoarthritis of the knee is one of the most common causes of disability among elderly. Arthritis rheumatoid is an autoimmune disease which causes multi articular arthritis, such as knee osteoarthritis. As the disease progresses the cartilage become frustrated, surrounding bone react to become thicker and inflammation occurs in subchondral bone seen in T2-weighted MRI as increase in signal density. Patients are treated initially by pain management. In patients who don't response to first line treatment invasive treatment like total knee replacement is done. The investigators designed this clinical study with the aim of evaluating therapeutic effects of intra-articular injection of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) in 60 patients with knee osteoarthritis.
This is an open-label, single-arm, multicenter, efficacy, and safety maintenance study of the Phase 1 Study CT-P10 1.1. This study is designed to assess the long-term efficacy and safety of CT-P10 co-administered with MTX and folic acid in patients with RA who have completed the scheduled visits in Study CT-P10 1.1
