Filter by:The primary purpose of this study is to help answer if LY2127399 is safe and effective during long-term treatment in participants with Rheumatoid Arthritis. This study is comprised of 2 periods: Period 1: Unblinded treatment for up to 240 weeks for participants who enroll from Study H9B-MC-BCDO (BCDO) (NCT01202760) or Study H9B-MC-BCDV (BCDV) (NCT01202773) or up to 168 weeks for participants who enroll from Study H9B-MC-BCDM (BCDM) (NCT01198002). Period 2: 48-week post-treatment follow-up
This open-label study will evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) in combination with disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) in patients with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis. Patients who successfully completed studies WA17823 and WA18696 in South Africa are eligible to participate in this study. Patients will be allowed DMARDs according to the treatment they received in the previous studies. Patients will receive 8 mg/kg RoActemra/Actemra intravenously every 4 weeks. The anticipated time on study treatment is 104 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Certolizumab pegol can rapidly reduce the inflammatory changes and inhibit erosions on hand and wrist MRI in patients with active moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether apremilast is safe and effective in the treatment of patients with psoriatic arthritis and a qualifying psoriasis lesion. Apremilast is proposed to improve signs and symptoms of psoriatic arthritis (tender and swollen joints, pain, physical function) in treated patients.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of tocilizumab vs placebo, in combination with stable, ongoing therapy, with regard to reduction in signs and symptoms in patients with moderate to severe active RA and inadequate response to current DMARD treatment
The primary objective of this study was to validate the ability of an 8-gene biomarker set to differentiate between participants who met or did not meet European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) Disease Activity Score (DAS)-28 Good Response criteria after treatment with anti-Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) therapy for 14 weeks in approximately 200 anti-TNF-naïve participants. The secondary objectives of this study was (i) to compare the behavior of the 8-gene marker set in participants who were anti-TNF naïve versus those who began their second anti-TNF treatment , (ii) to develop, maintain, and utilize a biorepository of serum, plasma, RNA, and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) samples for additional experiments and analyses and (iii) to discover novel genetic (DNA) predictors of response to anti-TNF therapy.
Part A: 30 patients suffering from active rheumatoid arthritis despite continued treatment with methotrexate will receive once daily two capsules containing either GLPG0259 (25 mg/capsule) or matching placebo, for 12 weeks. In the course of the study the patients will be examined for severity of disease, as well as for any adverse effects that may occur. If needed, dosing may be split to one capsule twice daily, or reduced to one capsule of 25 mg. Part B: If results of Part A suggest test medication to have a therapeutic advantage over placebo and to be well-tolerated, more patients will be recruited for Part B, where various dosages will be assessed. These dosages will be established based on results from Part A.
The purpose of this study is to study the evaluation of blood samples and blood types to identify functional protein in the joints.
This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this trial is to investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (the effect of the body on the investigated drug), pharmacodynamic biomarkers (biomarkers related to anti-IL-21 expected mode of action) and signs of clinical efficacy of increasing single doses, at 9 i.v. (into the vein) dose levels in Healthy Subjects , at 3 i.v. dose levels in subjects with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and at 3 s.c. dose levels in Healthy Subjects.
