Filter by:In this study we will compare two electronic goniometric gloves to see if they can be used in research on joint movement in arthritis. One of the gloves we will use is the commercially available '5DT Ultra 14 glove', the other is a glove that we have specially designed and developed for use in people with arthritis. Both gloves are 'high-end' gloves with sensors for all of the finger and thumb joints. We aim to find out if the gloves are accurate and if they can be worn and used without too much discomfort by people with arthritis.
Purpose: To compare a nurse-led clinic including person-centered care and tight control with "care as usual" in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and moderate/ high disease activity. Project description: Study population: Patients with RA, 18-80 yrs old, with moderate/ high Disease Activity Score of 28 joints (DAS28 > 3.8) and disease duration > 2 yrs in a 6-month randomized controlled study with a 6 month open follow-up. Intervention group (N=60): Nurse-led visits every 6th week, with structured person-centered care and evaluation of disease activity. If disease remission is not reached, pharmacological treatment including both short-term (intra-articular and oral steroids) and long-term alterations (DMARDs and biologics) is modified according to a predefined algorithm. The control group (N=60) is treated according to "care as usual" with visits to physician every 6th month. Outcome measures: Primary outcome measure is change in Diseases Activity Score (DAS). Secondary outcomes are quality of life, self-efficacy, disability, emotional well-being, pain, fatigue, sleep and satisfaction.
The primary purpose is to assess whether there is transfer of Certolizumab Pegol (CZP) from pregnant women receiving treatment with Cimzia® across the placenta to infants by evaluating the concentration of CZP in the plasma of infants at birth.
Primary Objective: To evaluate the effect of a single 200 mg subcutaneous injection of sarilumab on the pharmacokinetics of simvastatin in patients with rheumatoid arthritis Secondary Objective: To describe the safety and efficacy (exploratory) of sarilumab
The primary purpose of this study is to identify an appropriate dose of study medication.
This multi-center, open-label, single-arm, Phase IIIb study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of subcutaneous RoActemra/Actemra alone or in combination with non-biologic disease modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) in rheumatoid arthritis patients in Latin America with an inadequate response to non-biologic DMARDs.
This open-label, single arm study evaluated the efficacy and safety of RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Patients received RoActemra/Actemra 8 mg/kg intravenously every 4 weeks, alone or in combination with standard anti-rheumatic therapy, for 12 weeks.
This non-interventional, descriptive, cross-sectional and multicenter study will examine the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis progressing for less than two years in the Algerian population. Current drug therapy as well as disease status and patient function will be assessed.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of MabThera/Rituxan plus methotrexate in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis who have had an inadequate response to at least 1 DMARD treatment. All patients will receive MabThera (1000mg iv infusion) on days 1 and 15, and methotrexate (10-25mg po) weekly. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months.
This two part, multi-center, open-label, single-arm study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of tocilizumab as a monotherapy or in combination with methotrexate or other conventional synthetic disease modifying antirheumatic drugs (csDMARDs) in participants with moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis who have an inadequate response or are intolerant to non-biologic csDMARDs and/or biologic therapy.
