Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine an optimal abatacept dosing regimen for the treatment of active arthritis due to psoriatic arthritis in patients who have had a prior inadequate response to disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs, including methotrexate and tumor necrosis factor alpha-blockade compounds.
This study is to observe the long-term treatment of BG9924
The investigators hypothesize that the anabolic effects of Genotropin (somatropin) will improve the height and weight of children with inflammatory based chronic illness who have failed to grow despite receiving adequate nutrition. The investigators will test the hypothesis by treating 32 chronically ill children (16 JRA and 16 Crohn's) with growth hormone (GH) for 12 months and comparing them to baseline.
This study will investigate the pharmacokinetic (PK) / total IL-1beta pharmacodynamic (PD) relationship in joint fluids of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) treated with different doses of ACZ885 and to evaluate the impact of the subcutaneous (s.c.) versus intravenous (i.v.) route of administration.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of ocrelizumab, compared with placebo, in combination with methotrexate in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis who are naive to methotrexate. Patients will be randomized to receive placebo, ocrelizumab 200mg i.v. or ocrelizumab 500mg i.v. on Days 1 and 15. Repeat courses of i.v. treatment will be administered at weeks 24, 52 and 76. All patients will receive concomitant methotrexate (7.5 mg escalating to 20mg p.o. weekly). The anticipated time on study treatment is 2+ years, and the target sample size is 500+ individuals.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of ocrelizumab, compared with placebo, in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis who have an inadequate response to at least one anti-TNF-alpha therapy. Patients will be randomized to receive placebo, 200mg of intravenous ocrelizumab, or 500mg of i.v. ocrelizumab on days 1 and 15. A repeat course of i.v. treatment will be administered at weeks 24 and 26. All patients will receive stable doses of either concomitant methotrexate (7.5-25mg/week) or leflunomide (10-20mg po daily) and may receive additional DMARDs. The treatment period is planned for 48 weeks (until primary analysis) and then participants will enter the open label phase until the drug is commercialized. Target sample size is 1000.
Rituximab is a genetically engineered chimeric anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody that selectively targets CD20+ B cells and induces a transient depletion of the CD20+ mature B cell subpopulation.The objective of our study was to assess the effect of rituximab on the efficacy and safety of influenza virus vaccine in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
This Phase 2b study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BG9924 given subcutaneously (SC) versus placebo in participants with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who have previously had an inadequate response to treatment with anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) therapy.
This study is designed to assess the effects of socks and bedding materials on foot pain, the level of blood oxygen existing in the feet and quality of sleep in subjects who have chronic foot pain from either diabetic neuropathy or other conditions, e.g., peripheral arterial disease, regenerative joint disease). The three main hypotheses to be tested are: 1)compared to placebo socks, subjects wearing Holofiber socks experience reduction in foot pain, 2)compared to placebo bedding, subjects sleeping in beds lined with a Holofiber mattress pad experience improved quality of sleep and 3) compared to placebo socks, subjects who wear Holofiber socks will have increased blood oxygenation levels in their feet.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether maraviroc, an investigational drug given with methotrexate (MTX) is safe and effective in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis in adult patients.
