Filter by:Background: The hip joint is frequently affected in axial spondyloarthritis (SpA) of adults with destructive effects in untreated patients. About 35% of axial SpA patients had either unilateral or bilateral hip arthritis. Destruction is more common with early-onset, active disease, or enthesitis. Objectives: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of hip denervation (HD) and intra-articular hydration (IAH) on pain, function score, hip mobility scores in a cohort of axial SpA patients with grade 3 and 4 hip BASRI scores.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous (s.c) secukinumab in comparison with placebo for participants with two subtypes of active pSpA i.e. undifferentiated pSpA and chronic reactive arthritis, and with an inadequate response to conventional therapy despite current or previous Non-steroidal Anti Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) and/or csDMARDs. Additionally, the study aims to evaluate efficacy and safety of continuing versus withdrawing secukinumab therapy in maintaining remission in the study population.
Participants maintaining stable disease activity of Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) with standard-dose tumor necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi) treatment will randomly split into two groups: maintaining standard-dose TNFi, versus reduced-dose TNFi. The proportion of participants not underwent flare between the two groups will be analyzed.
Dosage: 100mg or 200mg or 300mg Administration frequency: Q2W administration in the first 4 weeks (W0, W2, W4), and subsequent Q4W administration (W8, W12) Administration: subcutaneous injection Specifications: 100mg/ 1mL/bottle or placebo 0mg/1ml/ bottle
This is an observational, prospective primary data collection study. The duration of observation is 2 years after study enrolment date. Disease and treatment history will be retrospectively reviewed from medical record at enrollment with no time limits for the key diagnosis of enrolment (plaque psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis and non-radiographic axial spondyloarthropathy).
This trial will study the safety and efficacy of cultured allogeneic adult umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells delivered intravenously and intraarticularly for the treatment of Osteoarthritis.
This is a pilot study to determine if further research is warranted to assess if anti-fungal therapy is an effective adjunctive treatment for axial spondyloarthropathy
Current evidence on tapering of tumor necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi) in axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is still hampered by heterogeneity in tapering regimens, selection and performance biases, and lack of data on optimized treatment dosing strategies especially in real-world clinical settings. This study aims to contribute to the ongoing investigation of disease-activity-guided tapering of TNFi in axSpA in the form of a prospective, randomized controlled trial.
The investigators have aimed to explore and interpret the neuropathic pain (NP) descriptors of spinal pain in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). For this purpose they have attempted to initiate a prospective, cross-sectional study with AS patients.
Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is an immune-mediated inflammatory disease primarily affecting the axial skeleton. The most frequent axSpA symptom is chronic, often inflammatory back pain that might be difficult to distinguish from other causes of chronic back pain. Many participants report persistent pain, including back pain, which impacts disease activity and and impairs quality of life while evoking typical disease burden such as sleep disturbance, social isolation, loss of productivity, as well as anxiety and depression. This study will assess the real-world effectiveness of upadacitinib on early and sustained disease control, and the association between pain and clinical/patient-reported outcomes in axSpA participants. Upadacitinib is being developed for the treatment of axSpA. Approximately 352 adult participants with active axSpA will be enrolled in Germany. Participants will receive oral upadacitinib tablets as prescribed by the physician prior to enrolling in this study in accordance with the terms of the local marketing authorization and professional and reimbursement guidelines with regards to dose, population and indication. The overall duration of the study is approximately 52 weeks. There may be a higher burden for participants in this study compared to usual standard of care due to study procedures. Participants will attend regular visits per routine clinical practice. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, checking for side effects, and questionnaires.
