Filter by:This is a Phase 3, multicenter, multinational, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, active-control study to compare efficacy, safety, immunogenicity, and PK of BAT1806 compared with RoActemra in subjects with RA that is inadequately controlled by MTX. The study is composed of a ≤ 28-day screening period, a 24-week initial treatment period (TP1), a 24 week secondary treatment period (TP2), and an extra 4-week follow-up period.
This is a phase 1, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, single-dose, clinical trial examining the safety and biological effects of allogeneic fresh human umbilical cord tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cell product BX-U001, given by intravenous (IV) infusion, to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients with moderate to severe disease activity, who are not well controlled by their current treatments. Two doses of BX-U001 will be tested in 16 patients. The subjects will receive a one-time IV infusion of BX-U001 and monitored for 52 weeks.
Observational, prospective and multicenter study in approximately 25 sites nationwide. The investigators participating in this study will be rheumatologists specializing in this pathology. The study will include patients diagnosed with PsA (according to the CASPAR diagnosis criteria), naïve to biological treatments, who have - following the routine practice in their centers - initiated treatment with apremilast 6 months (±1 months) before their inclusion in the study, irrespective of treatment duration. Recruitment will be consecutive and the reason for not including a potential candidate patient will be registered. The decision to prescribe apremilast treatment should be clearly dissociated from the inclusion of the patient in the study, which will not occur earlier than 6 months (± 4 weeks after treatment start). Therefore, the choice of the therapeutic strategy will be made independently by the physician. Before entering the study, all patients shall sign an informed consent to participate in the study, including permission to retrieve data from their medical records and to complete questionnaires regarding their quality of life. To avoid recruitment biases and obtain a homogeneous cohort regarding treatment duration, all consecutive patients who attend to a routine follow-up visit and have been prescribed apremilast 6 months (+/- 4 weeks) before the baseline visit, will be offered to enter the study. All consecutive patients who can be contacted 6 months (+/- 4 weeks) following initiation of treatment with apremilast will be approached for entry to minimize bias in patient selection
Multi-centre clinical follow-up study on patients with a history of acute haematogenous osteomyelitis and/or septic arthritis. The aim is to describe the frequency of sequelae in these former patients with osteoarticular infections. Patients will be invited to participate in a single follow-up visit including a standardised interview and a clinical examination. The collected data will be analyzed together with data from the patient's hospital stay.
The purpose is to found new biomarker that differentiate septic arthritis and Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis in children. Synovial liquid and blood samples with proteomic, MiRNA searching, multiplex cytokine analysis and cellular phenotyping, will be analysed. The results for each data will be compared in function of the disease to search discriminant markers. On behalf with this result specific pathways could be identified .
The objective of this study was to evaluate effectiveness of pharmacist intervention in improving disease knowledge, adherence to treatment, health related quality of life and direct cost of treatment. The study also documented patient satisfaction with pharmacist counselling as a quality control measure. This is a randomized controlled single-blind two-arm trial in patients with rheumatoid arthritis in Karachi, Pakistan. The study will enroll patients with established diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis over three months. The patients after signing written consent would be randomized through a computer-generated list in control group, i.e., usual care and intervention group, i.e., pharmaceutical care with a ratio of 1:1. The study will take place in three patient-visits over the course of three months. The patients would be intervened by pharmacist in intervention group while those in control group will have usual care. Primary outcomes include change in mean score at follow-up, i.e., week 12, for disease knowledge, adherence to medications and rehabilitation/physical therapy, health related quality of life (HRQoL). The secondary outcomes include change in the mean direct cost of treatment and patient satisfaction from pharmacist counselling. This is a novel study that evaluates the role of pharmacist in improving treatment outcomes of patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The results of this trial could set the foundation for future delivery of care for such patients in Pakistan. The results of this trial would be published in a peer-reviewed journal.
There is not much body composition and bone mineral density data available for patients with psoriatic arthritis (rheumatoid arthritis) compared to control subjects. The evaluation of the total fat mass and in particular of its abdominal distribution (visceral adiposity) is important because an excessive adiposity generates adverse effects on the health (hypertension, dyslipidemia, cardiovascular risk and resistance to the insulin). In addition, data on changes in body composition and bone mineral density were not available under a new psA treatment, namely ustekinumab (anti-IL12 / 23 antibody). It is proposed to conduct a pilot study to evaluate body composition, distribution (visceral adiposity) and bone mineral density in patients with psoriatic arthritis (versus control subjects) and their changes after 6 months of treatment with ustekinumab
This study will assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of ABBV-3373 in participants with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) on background methotrexate (MTX) compared with adalimumab.
This was a long-term extension (LTE) study to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of ABBV-105 (elsubrutinib [ELS]) and ABBV-599 (ELS 60 mg and upadacitinib [UPA] 15 mg) in participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who completed Study M16-063 (NCT03682705).
The aim of the recovery protocol is to reduce surgical trauma, postoperative pain, and complications, shorten hospital treatment and improve postoperative recovery. Orthopedic and traumatology surgeries are often followed by a long-lasting recovery with difficulties of everyday functioning. Up to this time, only a few publications of multidisciplinary protocol in orthopedics and traumatology have been published, mostly to improve the care of patients after elective surgical procedures. The goal of multidisciplinary after surgery recovery program in orthopedics and traumatology is to improve the care of both urgent and elective patients using standardized, multi-professional care programs. It focuses on patient education, preoperative respiratory training, adequate nutritive and hemodynamic support, modified anesthesia protocol, prevention of postoperative pain, nausea and vomiting, and early postoperative delirium detection. The implementation of the program will reduce the rate of postoperative complications and the rate of rehospitalization, enhance the recovery after surgery and increase the satisfaction with the treatment.
