Filter by:This is a Phase II, randomized, active-controlled, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel-group, multicenter study in the United States enrolling patients with active RA. The study will enroll approximately 290 patients at approximately 130 sites.
The purpose of this new research study is to gain additional information about how safe and effective R935788 is over a longer period of time.
NSAIDS are associated with adverse GI effects and COX-2 inhibitors have cardiovascular risk. Long-term oral supplementation with fish oil reduce e.g. joint pain in rheumatoid arthritis (R.A) patients, with reduced need for NSAIDS, in addition to being cardioprotective. The aim is to investigate if 4 month supplementation of 15 ml/day of whale blubber oil compared with cod liver oil reduce the intensity of joint pain in patients with R.A (primary outcome). Patients are assessed at inclusion and after study (4 months) during routine polyclinical visit. Patients are called for interview after 6 and 12 weeks. Secondary outcomes are e.g. morning stiffness, quality of life and functional level
Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a systemic inflammatory autoimmune disorder that leads to inflammation and progressive joint damage affecting 2.5 million people in the United States. The primary purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of switching to an alternative Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) alpha inhibitor in comparison to continuing treatment with an existing TNF-alpha inhibitor in adults suffering from RA in a setting of inadequate clinical response to etanercept or adalimumab.
The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single intravenous dose of PG102 in patients with psoriatic arthritis. The secondary objectives are to evaluate how PG102 moves around the body and to explore its effects on the disease.
Rheumatoid arthritis is a systemic disease, it is not clear whether the gene expression profile exhibited by circulated peripheral blood cells and that expressed by the inflamed synovium mirror one another. Understanding this relationship would be useful not only in potentially having a relatively non-invasive means to predict response to therapy but it might be useful in better understanding differences in RA expression amongst patients with this disease, thus perhaps assisting in target identification through a better understanding of disease processes.
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety and PK/PD of ocrelizumab at each dose in combination with methotrexate(MTX)in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The data from this study will also be compared with those from a clinical study of ocrelizumab in patients with active RA that was conducted in the U.S.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use and efficacy of the Encore Foundation Knee System in a group of 200 patients for whom data has already been collected.
The purpose of this study is to compare the survivorship and efficacy of the Encore 3DKnee™ system with that of the Encore MJS™ Knee System in a group of 600 patients for whom data collection is already under way.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate quality of life changes in Puerto Rican subjects with Rheumatoid Arthritis treated with Humira (adalimumab) as their first Anti-TNF Monoclonal Antibody.
