Filter by:This is a randomized, double-blind study comparing ABT-494 to placebo in Japanese participants with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis who are on a stable dose of conventional synthetic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (csDMARDs) and have an inadequate response. Following marketing approval of upadacitinib for rheumatoid arthritis in Japan, this study will become a post-marketing clinical study and include a long-term extension period.
This double-blind, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose study is designed to demonstrate safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of SKI-O-703 in healthy volunteers. The results of this study will guide selection of dose levels for future multiple dose studies in healthy volunteers and adult patients with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis.
Objectives: The overall goal of this study is to use the principles of chronic disease management to develop and test an online social networking intervention using the FB platform in a randomized controlled trial. Our specific objectives are as follows: Aim 1: To develop and establish an independent closed community in FB for patients with rheumatoid arthritis, providing an educational platform for disease self-management and the potential for engaging in social networking with peers (Phase 2). Objective 1. To beta test the features and navigation buttons and panels in the newly developed website and FB group. Objective 2. To evaluate the contents, ease of use and satisfaction with the newly developed website and FB group by patient advocates (consultants to the study) who participate as members of the Facebook community. Aim 2: To evaluate the efficacy of the FB community intervention combined with an educational website to improve patients' self-management (including knowledge, which is the primary outcome), decision making and patient-reported outcomes compared with the educational website alone (Phase 3). We hypothesize that participation in an online closed community offering evidence-based information combined with peer interaction and support will improve patients' knowledge.
To evaluate the long-term safety including immunogenicity and efficacy of LBEC0101 50 mg subcutaneous weekly injection when co-administered with MTX
The objective of this study is to elucidate the relationship between inflammation and lipoprotein atherogenicity, and to determine the relative contribution of inflammation and lipids to CV risk in RA. The central hypothesis of this study is that inflammation and lipoprotein atherogenicity is tightly linked such that both factors are important to assess CV risk in RA. Further, the investigators hypothesize that this relationship is obscured by a consideration of routine lipids alone.
To study Fibrocytes in patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis, Interstitial lung disease and severe asthma and healthy controls.
The study objective of Period 1 of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy (signs and symptoms) of upadacitinib 30 mg once daily (QD) alone and upadacitinib 15 mg QD alone versus continuing MTX alone adults with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with an inadequate response to MTX. The study objective of Period 2 is to evaluate the long term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of upadacitinib 30 mg QD and 15 mg QD in adults with RA who had completed Period 1.
The objectives of Period 1 were the following: - To compare the safety and efficacy of upadacitinib 7.5 mg once daily (QD) monotherapy (for participants in Japan only), 15 mg QD monotherapy, and 30 mg QD monotherapy versus weekly methotrexate monotherapy for the treatment of signs and symptoms of RA in methotrexate-naïve adults with moderately to severely active RA; - To compare the efficacy of upadacitinib 15 mg QD monotherapy and upadacitinib 30 mg QD monotherapy versus weekly methotrexate monotherapy for prevention of structural progression in methotrexate-naïve adults with moderately to severely active RA. The objective of Period 2 is to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of upadacitinib 7.5 mg QD (for participants in Japan only), 15 mg QD, and 30 mg QD in adults with RA who have completed Period 1.
The study objective of Period 1 (Day 1 to Week 24) is to compare the safety and efficacy of upadacitinib 30 mg once daily (QD) and 15 mg QD versus placebo for the treatment of signs and symptoms of participants with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are on a stable dose of csDMARDs and had an inadequate response to or intolerance to at least 1 bDMARD. The study objective of Period 2 (Week 24 to Week 260) is to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of upadacitinib 15 mg QD and 30 mg QD in participants with RA who completed Period 1.
In this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study the effects of underwater ultrasound (US) therapy were investigated in 48 patients with moderately active rheumatoid arthritis (disease activity score in 28 joints (DAS28) ≥3.2 and ≤5.1). Patients randomly assigned to the ultrasound group (N=25) received underwater ultrasound therapy to both wrists and hands for 7 minutes per session with an intensity of 0.7 W/cm2 during 10 sessions. The control group (N=23) received sham treatment under the same conditions. At baseline, at the end of treatment (Week 2) and at the follow-up visit (Week 14), the following parameters were evaluated: disease activity - erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP), tender and swollen joint counts, pain on a visual analogue scale, and DAS28, hand function (fist making, wrist extension and flexion, hand grip strength), quality of life - Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ), and the patients rated their own condition.
