Filter by:PRISM (Pictorial Representation of Illness and Self Measure) has been developed since the mid-1990s; the task was first developed as a simple measure of how a person was coping with his or her experience of illness. This is an international, multicentre study to evaluate the PRISM tool for the assessment of suffering in rheumatoid arthritis at different stages of the illness and the effect of treatment intervention. There are 5 sites: Berlin, Oxford, Limoges, Montreal and Queensland. The study will recruit 200 patients in total. In addition to the procedures for the patient's routine clinical visit, the patients will be invited to answer a series of questionnaires and donate 20ml blood sample. Patients will be asked to attend 3 times over 24 weeks
The purpose of this study is to see if mavrilimumab can provide benefit to subjects with rheumatoid arthritis.
Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is an inflammatory chronic rheumatism where the pain remains the priority domain of improvement for the patients instead a good control of the inflammatory disease by treatments, even biotherapeutics . Some studies show that less than 50 % of the patients is satisfied by the care of the pain, whereas the criteria of evaluation of the RA improve under treatment. The chronic pain, is a complex and multifactorial subjective phenomenon requiring a multidimensional evaluation, while the current criteria of follow-up of the RA (DAS28, ACR criteria) investigate the pain in a single dimension that is the pain intensity. So, the investigators do not arrange explanation for this observed dichotomy between the improvement of the clinical and biological inflammatory criteria of the RA and on the other hand the persistence of pain. On the other hand, the interleukin (IL)-6, IL-17 and IL-33 are cytokines occurring in the physiopathology of RA and probably in the pain processing according to recent data of the literature. The aim of this study is: - to assess the multidimensional origin of the pain in RA patients by means of questionnaires - to look for a possible correlation between the serum level of cytokines and pain.
This observational study will evaluate the use and efficacy of RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) in monotherapy in routine clinical practice in participants with rheumatoid arthritis. Eligible participants initiated on RoActemra/Actemra treatment according to the licensed label will be followed for 6 months.
The purpose of the study is to assess whether, in individuals with rheumatoid arthritis, a low-fat, vegan diet improves pain and other subjective symptoms more effectively than a control supplement or a placebo. The principal measure is pain as measured by Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and disease activity as measured by number of painful swollen and tender joints, respectively. The study duration is 36 weeks. This study tests that a low fat, plant-based (vegan) diet free of foods commonly identified as triggers improves mood, using the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale-Revised (CESD-R), and the Beck Depression Inventory II (BDI-II).
The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) inhibition on oral parameters in patients with RA and to examine changes in levels of proinflammatory cytokines in serum, gingival crevicular fluid (GCF), and saliva at an early time point (6-8 wk) and a later time point (14-16 wk) after the initiation of therapy in relation to concomitant assessment of Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and oral clinical variables. The purposes of the study are to: 1. Determine if oral periodontal parameters are affected by TNF inhibition; 2. Examine relationships between periodontal variables and RA variables with TNF inhibition; 3. Determine if there may be potential early response markers of clinical RA response seen using ultrasensitive analysis of oral or serum cytokines.
To investigate how the fatigue vary over time in persons with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and which factors that may influence the fatigue.
To compare retention rates of adalimumab, etanercept and infliximab as first-line biotherapy in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), to determine causes of discontinuation, retention-associated factors, and retention rates of possible second-line tumor necrosis factor α inhibitors (TNFi).
The purpose of this study is to Evaluate and Compare Safety and Pharmacokinetics of the HCP1004 and VIMOVO 500/20mg in Healthy Korean Male
This postmarketing study was conducted to describe prescribing patterns for etoricoxib (ARCOXIA®) in General Practice and describe the incidence of selected adverse events recorded in the United Kingdom (UK) Medicines and Health Care Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) General Practice Research Database (GPRD).
