Filter by:The purpose of this study is to assess whether or not adalimumab (Humira®) can influence pain medication in participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and ankylosing spondylitis (AS) with or without comorbidities, which do not constitute a contraindication for adalimumab as stated in the released summary of product characteristics. Therefore it shall be evaluated if pain medication which is used in these participants is changed, reduced or stopped due to adalimumab treatment.
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.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an inflammatory form of arthritis that causes joint pain and damage. RA attacks the lining of the joints (synovium), causing swelling that can result in aching and throbbing, and eventually deformity. Even though there have been many advances in the treatment of RA, psoriatic arthritis (PsA), and other inflammatory arthritis, doctors still do not know what causes this inflammation in joints. It is likely that RA occurs as a result of a complex combination of factors, including a person's genes; lifestyle choices, such as smoking and diet; and things in a person's environment, including bacteria or viruses. This study investigates the hypothesis that bacteria living in a person's mouth and/or intestinal tract are responsible, at least in part, for the development of Rheumatoid Arthritis. The investigators believe that by killing those bacteria with antibiotics, they might be able to understand how the immune system works and, maybe, what causes RA.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether apremilast is safe and effective in the treatment of patients with psoriatic arthritis, specifically in improving signs and symptoms of psoriatic arthritis (tender and swollen joints, pain, physical function) in treated patients.
This study is designed as an extension study to the proof-of-concept trial CAIN457A2206 in patients with psoriatic arthritis and aims to provide continuous treatment with AIN457 for patients in the core trial, to obtain safety and tolerability information. The study will address the evaluation of efficacy following doses of 3 mg/kg AIN457 given every 4 weeks over a period initially up to 6 months (Part 1) and based on the risk/benefit balance of AIN457 in psoriatic arthritis a decision will be made as to whether or not to continue dosing for another 6 month period (Part 2).
The primary objective of this post-marketing observational study was to obtain data on the characteristics (patient age/gender; disease type, severity and duration; disease specific treatment history; current concomitant medications; other relevant medical history) of patients prescribed adalimumab (Humira®) for rheumatoid arthritis (RA), ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) as part of routine clinical care in Russia.
This is a phase 4, multicenter, randomized, non-therapeutic interventional trial in subjects with psoriasis looking for the prevalence of psoriatic arthritis. Subjects will be seen and evaluated by a dermatologist at visit 1 and by a rheumatologist at visit 2. A subset of subjects will then go on to visit 3 for imaging procedures (x-ray, MRI, and ultrasound).
This exploratory study will be used to identify questions that will be part of a new QoL questionnaire for patients with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis and to determine the sample size needed for its validation. The new questionnaire will be a global QoL questionnaire which will take into account the impact of both psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis on QoL. STUDY OBJECTIVES - To evaluate the influence of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis on patient's answers to QoL questions from DLQI, HAQ, EQ-5D, FACIT-fatigue and SF-36. - To identify an equal number of questions from DLQI, HAQ, EQ-5D, FACIT-fatigue and SF-36 where answers are mostly influenced either by psoriatic arthritis or by psoriasis.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether DC-STAMP, a protein on the surface of osteoclast precursors (OCPs), can be used as a biologic marker in Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA). With this marker the investigators hope to learn more about how OCPs develop as well as find out if DC-STAMP predicts PsA severity and how well treatment works in PsA.
