The primary objective of the study was to investigate the association between residual disease activity at Baseline as detected by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and the occurrence of flares in participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) randomized to an adalimumab dose tapering regimen controlled by adalimumab withdrawal.
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is the most common chronic inflammatory arthritis in adults. Monitoring of disease activity is based on Disease Activity Score 28 (DAS 28). There are also validated questionnaires for self-assessment of the disease by the patient. Grip strength measured using a digitized sensor used by the patient could be an additional tool to the remote monitoring of patients with RA. Main Objective : To evaluate the correlation between the measurement of grip strength in the dominant hand measured by a digital sensor and activity of RA assessed by DAS 28 Secondary objective : Evaluate the correlation between grip strength of the dominant hand and : - scores of fatigue and pain (VAS and FACIT) - the self-assessment scores known in RA : functional index Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) and scores of activity RAPID3 and RADAI5. It is a cross-sectional study involving 150 patients followed in our department for RA. Grip strength of the dominant hand will be measured by a digitalized sensor during a single visit integrating into the routine monitoring of patients.
This study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of multiple infusions of GS-5745 in adults with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Participants will be randomized in a 4:1 ratio to receive 1 intravenous (IV) infusion of GS-5745 or placebo every 2 weeks, for a total of 3 IV infusions.
Randomized Controlled Study to determine if preservation of ligaments provides increased functional ability post-operatively in comparison to traditional TKA which sacrifices soft tissue.
Previous study found that lipid extract from hard-shelled mussel (HMLE) at a dose of 100mg/kg possessed strong anti-inflammatory activity by diminishing the hind paw swelling and arthritis index in rat model. In the present study, HMLE was processed to capsules under strict food safety supervision and patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA）were selected to examine whether supplementation with HMLE could improve clinical and laboratory parameters of disease activity. The validated disease activity score that include 28 joint counts and ESR (DAS28) and validated clinical disease activity index (CDAI) were primary outcome measure. Laboratory parameters including IL-1β, IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α,PGE2 and COX-2 were also measured to explore the mechanisms.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of single, ascending, intravenous (IV) doses of ASP2409 in patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) on methotrexate (MTX) and to evaluate the pharmacodynamics (PD) of ASP2409.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the risk of infections and malignancies among Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) patients treated with Abatacept compared to other RA treatments.
This is a randomised, double-blind, parallel group, multicentre clinical study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and immunogenicity of SB5 compared to Humira® in subjects with moderate to severe RA despite MTX therapy.
TWEAK (TNF weakly inducer of apoptosis) is a type II-transmembrane protein, member of the TNF ligand superfamily that can be cleaved to function as a soluble cytokine. Depending on target cell type, TWEAK triggers multiple cellular responses ranging from modulation of inflammation to cell death when it binds to its main receptor, Fn 14. Our team has been the first to describe pro-inflammatory effects of TWEAK during central nervous system inflammation. Various data support the possibility that TWEAK produced by synovial macrophages may contribute to chronic synovitis in animal models and in humans. In psoriatic arthritis (PsoA), anti-TNF therapy has been successful concording with the key role of TNF in the pathogenesis of this disease and the generation by psoriatic patients of neutralizing anti-TNF autoantibodies referred as "beneficial autoimmunity to pro-inflammatory mediators". In 2010, Van Kuijk et al. have described a high expression of TWEAK in the inflammatory synovial of PsoA and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients before and after anti-TNF therapy. The role of TNF-alpha in the regulation of TWEAK expression remains unclear.
