Filter by:This is a comparative study of CP 690,550, Humira (adalimumab) and placebo on background methotrexate in patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis. The study is intended to provide evidence of the efficacy and safety of CP 690,550 when dosed 5 mg and 10 mg twice a day on background methotrexate in adult patients with moderate to severe Rheumatoid Arthritis. It is intended to confirm the benefits of CP-690,550 in improving signs and symptoms and physical function that were observed in Rheumatoid Arthritis. An active comparator, adalimumab, is also included.
The objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety and efficacy of certolizumab pegol as add-on medication to methotrexate over the long term in Japanese RA patients transferred from Study 275-08-001 (NCT00791999), and to evaluate the effects of different dosing regimens on the safety and efficacy of certolizumab pegol in American College of Rheumatology 20% (ACR20) responders who completed Study 275-08-001.
Patients with adult-onset rheumatoid arthritis will be enrolled. They will be dosed with repeated intravenous doses of BTT-1023 or placebo. During the trial, the safety of the treatments and the pharmacokinetics of BTT-1023 will be assessed. The patient allocation to treatment groups will occur at random, and the actual treatment will not be revealed to the investigator or to the patient during the trial.
The objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety and efficacy of certolizumab pegol when administered without coadministration of methotrexate over the long term in Japanese RA patients who transferred from Study 275-08-003 (NCT00791921), and to evaluate the effects of different dosing regimens on the safety and efficacy of certolizumab pegol in American College of Rheumatology 20% (ACR20) responders who completed Study 275-08-003.
The purpose of this 2 phased, open-label study is to compare the safety and efficacy of etanercept with conventional Disease Modifying Antirheumatic Drug (DMARD) therapy in Latin American subjects with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis over 128 weeks. Phase 1 is a randomized 24 week treatment period; Phase 2 is an optional open-label 104 week period that allows the investigator to choose continuation with the phase I treatment or the addition, discontinuation or titration of other DMARD therapy already being utilized for the study.
This single arm, open label study will assess the safety and efficacy, with regard to reduction of signs and symptoms,of treatment with tocilizumab in patients with moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis. Patients will receive tocilizumab 8 mg/kg IV every 4 weeks for a total of 6 infusions. Patients already receiving methotrexate at entry into the study may continue with their treatment together with tocilizumab.The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of LX3305 on methotrexate (MTX) pharmacokinetics and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of LX3305 given over 14 days in subjects with stable rheumatoid arthritis that are receiving stable doses of MTX.
This study is designed to provide safety and efficacy data to support the development of CP-690,550 in patients with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis on background of methotrexate.
The aim of this study is to evaluate a simple and rapid method in order to better define and treat Polymyalgia Rheumatica by measuring levels of muscle achiness and pain with a blood pressure cuff.
This 2 part study will investigate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of MabT hera in combination with RoActemra in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis despite a stable dose of methotrexate. In Part 1 of the study, patients will be randomized to receive either MabThera 0.5g iv or placebo on days 1 and 15, follo wed by RoActemra at one of the ascending doses between 2mg/kg and 8mg/kg at week s 4, 8 and 12 (MabThera arm) or 8mg/kg (placebo arm). In Part 2, additional pati ents will be randomized to one of 2 groups to receive MabThera 0.5g on days 1 an d 15 followed by the selected dose (from Part 1)of RoActemra at weeks 4, 8 and 1 2, or placebo on days 1 and 15 followed by RoActemra 8mg/kg at weeks 4,8 and 12. All patients will then be eligible to receive extension treatment withRoActemra every 4 weeks. The anticipated time on study treatment is 12 months, and the tar get sample size is <100 individuals.
