Filter by:This single arm study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of MabThera in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis who are receiving methotrexate treatment, and who have had an inadequate response to one anti-TNF alpha therapy. All patients will receive MabThera 1000mg i.v. on days 1 and 15, in addition to concomitant methotrexate. Patients who achieve a clinically relevant response to the first course of treatment may be eligible to receive one re-treatment course of MabThera between weeks 24 and 48. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 100 individuals.
To determine the efficacy and safety of the combination of leflunomide and methotrexate for treating active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in an open noncomparative multicenter trial.
This trial will test the hypothesis that the addition of CF101, a novel anti-inflammatory agent, will improve the clinical condition of patients with rheumatoid arthritis who still have active joint inflammation despite taking methotrexate for at least 6 months.
To study the effects of T cell in peripheral blood of patients with RA undergoing selective B cell depletion have not been studied. We analyze the B and T cell subsets in patients with active RA treated undergoing this form of treatment with rituximab.
The purpose of this study is: 1. To evaluate the prevalence of preclinical atherosclerosis in Chinese patients with RA compared to healthy controls. 2. To determine those clinical and biological measures that best predict the presence of plaque and increased arterial stiffness. 3. To ascertain the efficacy and safety of rosuvastatin in the prevention of atherosclerosis in patients with RA measured by carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) and pulse wave velocity (PWV).
Patients with rheumatoid arthritis have a significantly higher risk to develop heart attacks and other complications of their blood vessels. New therapies are needed to prevent this complication. The purpose of this study is to establish the role of the medication pioglitazone in improving the function of the blood vessels and heart and decreasing the risk of future atherosclerosis development in individuals with rheumatoid arthritis. As a secondary aim-point, we will evaluate the efficacy of pioglitazone in improving rheumatoid arthritis disease activity and markers of inflammation.
This study will assess the long-term safety and tolerability of ACZ885 in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, as well as long-term efficacy, long-term preservation and/or improvement of joint structure and bone mineral density, and long term maintenance of health-related quality of life.
CRx-102 is a synergistic combination drug candidate containing the cardiovascular drug dipyridamole and a very low dose of the glucocorticoid prednisolone. CRx-102 is believed to work through a novel mechanism of action in which dipyridamole selectively amplifies the anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activities of the glucocorticoid without replicating the dose-dependent adverse effects. CRx-102 has been associated with clinical benefit in proof of concept studies in subjects with hand Osteoarthritis (OA) and Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). In this trial, CRx-102 will be given to subjects with active RA as an add-on therapy to existing stable doses of Disease Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs (DMARDs) including methotrexate (MTX), sulfasalazine, hydroxychloroquine, leflunomide or azathioprine. MTX in combination with other DMARDs (e.g., sulfasalazine or hydroxychloroquine) will be permitted to reflect the current standard of care practices within rheumatology.
The purpose of this study is to understand the safety and tolerability of INCB018424 in patients with rheumatoid arthritis
The purpose of this study was to confirm and extend the data from previous studies and to demonstrate the efficacy (in terms of signs and symptoms) and safety of monotherapy with CDP870 administered SC every 4 weeks compared to placebo in patients with active RA who had failed at least one DMARD.
