Filter by:The mail goal of this study is to establish superiority in efficacy of Acellbia® applied in a dose of 600 mg (Day 1 and Day 15) in combination with methotrexate in patients with active RA seropositive previously untreated with biological therapy, compared to standard therapy with methotrexate.
The aim of Patient-Centred Innovations for Persons With Multimorbidity (PACE in MM) study is to reorient the health care system from a single disease focus to a multimorbidity focus; centre on not only disease but also the patient in context; and realign the health care system from separate silos to coordinated collaborations in care. PACE in MM will propose multifaceted innovations in Chronic Disease Prevention and Management (CDPM) that will be grounded in current realities (i.e. Chronic Care Models including Self-Management Programs), that are linked to Primary Care (PC) reform efforts. The study will build on this firm foundation, will design and test promising innovations and will achieve transformation by creating structures to sustain relationships among researchers, decision-makers, practitioners, and patients. The Team will conduct inter-jurisdictional comparisons and is mainly a Quebec (QC) - Ontario (ON) collaboration with participation from 4 other provinces: British Columbia (BC); Manitoba (MB); Nova Scotia (NS); and New Brunswick (NB). The Team's objectives are: 1) to identify factors responsible for success or failure of current CDPM programs linked to the PC reform, by conducting a realist synthesis of their quantitative and qualitative evaluations; 2) to transform consenting CDPM programs identified in Objective 1, by aligning them to promising interventions on patient-centred care for multimorbidity patients, and to test these new innovations' in at least two jurisdictions and compare among jurisdictions; and 3) to foster the scaling-up of innovations informed by Objective 1 and tested/proven in Objective 2, and to conduct research on different approaches to scaling-up. This registration for Clinical Trials only pertains to Objective 2 of the study.
This is a Phase I-II open- label single-dose study in subjects with significant refractory Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), relapsing Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) or Sharp's Syndrome (SS). This study will enroll a minimum of 20 subjects for RA, 20 subjects for SLE and 20 patients for SS. 6 week data of serum Tumor Necrosis Factor- alpha (TNFa), Interleukin- 6 (IL-6), C- Reactive Protein (CRP), Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR), Cluster of Differentiation (CD)4 +CD25 + Forkhead box P3(Foxp3) + regulatory T cells, Disease Activity Score for 28 joints (DAS-28) score and pain score will be collected in all patients who are enrolled in the study for the RA group (Baseline and 6 weeks after). For the SLE group, Transforming Growth Factor- beta (TGF-β), TNFa, IL-6, Interleukin- 17 (IL-17), CD3+CD8-IL17A+ T helper-17 (Th17) cells, CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ regulatory T cells and the Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Quality of Life Questionnaire (SLEQoL) score will be collected in all the subjects of this group. SS group will undergo the assessments of RA and SLE. Prior to the stem cell treatment, the patient will be assessed for 6 weeks by all the previously mentioned markers. Then, patients will receive the infusion of stromal vascular fraction cells containing the adult adipose derived stem cells 'aADSC' (single intravenous dose). The disease- modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) or the standard SLE treatment will not be interrupted with the exception of systemic steroids (excluding minimal maintenance dose of one steroid) during the duration of the study. Follow up visits will take place at 6 weeks, 3 Months and 6 Months after the cell infusion. Safety will be monitored on an ongoing basis, and an interim safety review will be conducted by the Investigator(s) and Sponsor after the first 10 patients have been enrolled and treated in each group.
The primary objective is to prospectively study the comparative effectiveness and comparative safety of approved therapies for RA in a Japanese cohort of patients treated by rheumatologists. This includes assessing the incidence of adverse events of special interest, in a real-world population of rheumatoid arthritis patients. Secondary objectives include analyzing the epidemiology and natural history of the disease, comorbidities, and current treatment practices.
A study to determine the efficacy and safety of rituximab in Pakistani patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who have been inadequately controlled with standard disease modifying anti rheumatic drugs (DMARDs).
Objective: To evaluate what factors contribute to activity limitations in subjects with rheumatoid arthritis considering the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health model. Methods: A cross-sectional study on 81 individuals with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) using instruments to measure five constructs of the component activities.
This is an open-label SPECT/CT (single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography) study to investigate the diagnosis and efficacy evaluation performance of 99mTc-3PRGD2 in rheumatoid arthritis patients. A single dose of nearly 11.1 MBq/kg body weight of 99mTc-3PRGD2 (≤20µg 3PRGD2) will be intravenously injected into the patients. Visual and semiquantitative method will be used to assess the whole-body planar and lesions section SPECT/CT images. Adverse events will also be observed in the patients.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the usability of an auto-injector (AI) for the delivery of M923 in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA)
This is an open-label, non-interventional study to evaluate efficacy and safety in rheumatoid arthritis participants receiving tocilizumab as per the product label.
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.
