Filter by:The primary aim of the study is to investigate if 10 weeks of high intensity interval training improve inflammatory status in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
Recruited patients will include those about to begin Disease-Modifying Antirheumatic Drug) DMARD therapy or about to change DMARD therapy. Disease activity will be monitored systematically every 3 months by the Disease Activity Score. Changes in standard DMARD and/or anti-Tumor Necrosis Factor α (anti-TNFα) therapy will be made according to specific recommendations for patients receiving these therapies. Biomarker samples will be collected every 3 months and prior to change in DMARD and/or anti-TNF therapy as defined below. A blood sample (40 ml) for serum will be taken for biomarker studies and processed according to the international committee of Outcome Measures in Rheumatology (OMERACT) recommendations for the minimal handling of biomarker samples. A urine sample (20 ml) will also be taken and processed as for serum. Radiography (X-rays) will be conducted every 6 months (baseline, 6, 12, 18, 24 months). Patients will be followed for 2 years.
This prospective, multi-center, observational study will evaluate factors influencing the use of RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) as monotherapy in rheumatoid arthritis patients in real life setting. Data will be collected from patients for 12 months following initiation of RoActemra treatment.
This multi-center, randomized, parallel-group, active-controlled, open-label study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of a shortened RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) infusion time compared to the normal infusion time. Patients will be randomized to 8 mg/kg RoActemra/Actemra infusion of 31 minutes every 4 weeks or to RoActemra/Actemra 8 mg/kg infusion of 60 minutes every 4 weeks. The anticipated time on study treatment is 24 weeks.
This is a prospective multicenter study of the Gender Solutions Natural Knee Flex System when used in primary total knee arthroplasty. The purpose of the study is to obtain short-, Mid-, and long-term clinical outcomes and implant survivorship data for the Gender Solutions Natural Knee Flex System.
Development of an interactive, online pain self-management program for adults who suffer from pain associated with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, Ankylosing spondylitis, and other arthritic conditions (e.g., psoriatic arthritis) using principles from Social Cognitive Theory (Bandura, 1977). This online health intervention, painACTION: Arthritis, will provide clinically reliable information about diagnosis, treatment, and management of arthritis, written for health consumers in a clear and engaging manner to help increase their skills and confidence to use self-management strategies.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CDP6038 administered subcutaneous (sc) at various doses compared to placebo.
This is a prospective multicenter study of the LPS-Flex Porous Femoral Components when used in primary total knee arthroplasty. The purpose of the study is to obtain short-, mid-, and long-term clinical outcomes and implant survivorship data for the NexGen LPS-Flex Porous Femoral components.
This prospective observational study will investigate the effect of RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) on fatigue in patients with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis who have an inadequate response to disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs or anti-TNF drugs. Data will be collected from patients for 6 months.
The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of certolizumab pegol (CZP) with methotrexate (MTX) compared with MTX-alone in patients with early-stage rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are naive to MTX and have with poor prognostic factors, using inhibition of radiographically confirmed joint damage progression over a one-year period as a primary endpoint. Following a year of treatment with CZP plus MTX treatment, CZP will be discontinued, and the subjects will be monitored for one more year (the follow-up period) to investigate the sustainability of efficacy of CZP during the MTX monotherapy for exploratory purposes.
