Filter by:The diagnosis, evaluation and treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) continue to undergo rapid change. Randomized controlled trials such as the TEMPO study have demonstrated the efficacy and safety of the combination of etanercept and methotrexate. Importantly, the TEMPO study showed that patients treated with etanercept and methotrexate could reach the newer therapeutic goals of low disease activity and remission, and that the physicians, patients, and payers are no longer prepared to accept the goal of "Reduction of symptoms". RCT are important and powerful tools in assessing efficacy and safety but have their limitations in terms of generalisability. In order to assess health economics, clinical effectiveness and safety of etanercept, they need to be measured by performing observational studies of unselected patients. This study aims to provide a holistic assessment of patients receiving etanercept in a real world setting. This will include centers that would not normally take part in RCT. The study will assess treatment with etanercept with descriptive statistics of the following parameters: Health economic, Safety, Effectiveness. In addition, there was a previous study of similar design, but of only 3 months duration (101354), which will allow comparison with historical data. Since previous study, there have been a number of significant changes: Introduction of a new formulation for etanercept (Enbrel® 50mg · once weekly), Definition of early RA has been modified to short disease duration (from 3 months to 1 year).
This study was intended to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous (IV) ACZ885 and oral methotrexate (MTX) therapy in patients with early rheumatoid arthritis (RA)
Prospective, multi-center clinical study to evaluate the clinical outcomes of the posterior stabilized design of the LCS® Complete Mobile-bearing Total Knee System
To determine if worksite based functional evaluation/intervention provided by occupational therapists improves employment outcomes for persons with arthritis.
This postmarketing surveillance study will evaluate the safety profile of Enbrel (etanercept) in an Indian population. It will provide surveillance on a currently approved indication for Enbrel of reducing symptoms and inhibiting the progression of structural damage in patients with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety of chronic use of abatacept in Japanese Subjects with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) having completed clinical studies IM101-071, IM101-034, and also Disease Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs (DMARDs) failures with MTX intolerance.
This study will compare the safety and efficacy for two regimens of etanercept in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The two regimens to be compared are a 25mg twice weekly regimen and a 50mg once weekly regimen.
Efficacy and Safety Study of MK0359 in Patients with Arthritis
Hypothesis: Early intensive treatment with anti-TNF agent plus methotrexate plus high dose prednisone may increase remission rate and may induce stable remission in Rheumatoid Arthritis Objective: to evaluate induction of remission using adalimumab, prednisone and methotrexate and maintenance of remission after discontinuation of adalimumab and prednisone
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease that causes long-term inflammation of the joints and occasionally, other body tissues. The purpose of this study is to evaluate two different types of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in reducing RA disease activity and improving mental health of adults with RA.
