Filter by:There is currently no cure for rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but many treatment options are available. The central aim of RA treatment is lowering disease activity. The proactive treatment strategy called treat to target (T2T) includes measuring disease activity, setting a target and adjusting treatment accordingly until the goal is reached. T2T has proven to be superior to usual care, but there is much debate regarding the most optimal treatment measure and target. The Disease Activity Score with 28-joint counts and c-reactive protein (DAS28CRP) low-disease activity (LDA) target and the more stringent Simplified Disease Activity Index (SDAI) remission target are the best validated targets. Especially the DAS28CRP is the most commonly used in research and practice, whereas the SDAI remission target is most recommended. The European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR) recommends to strive for remission, whereas the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) recommends to strive for LDA. In patients with new and established RA, the (cost)effectiveness of aiming for remission compared to LDA when starting and tapering antirheumatic drugs has not been directly compared. This study therefore aims to directly compare two T2T strategies, aiming at DAS28CRP-LDA and SDAI remission, in patients with established RA.
RENOIR Study: This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of Rosnilimab in subjects with moderate to severe Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is one of the most common autoimmune diseases, characterized by chronic inflammatory bone and cartilage destruction. Although treatment including anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) receptor antibodies has been successful, only 20% to 30% of patients have achieved complete remission. Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a common complication of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Approximately 5-10% of RA patients have clinically significant rheumatoid arthritis associated interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD), with a mortality rate of 2-10 times that of RA-non ILD patients. The median survival after diagnosis is between 3-8 years. Although there are multiple biomarkers for RA-ILD, such as anti citrullinated protein antibody (ACPA), MUC5B mutant gene, KL-6, etc., none of these biomarkers can reliably predict the disease and prognostic risk of RA-ILD. Therefore, improving the prediction of RA complicated with ILD and exploring risk factors for the progression and prognosis of RA-ILD can contribute to early diagnosis and treatment, and is of great significance in preventing RA lung injury and death. This study aims to screen differential serum biomarkers between RA patients and RA-ILD patients through prospective cohort studies, to explore whether these differential serum biomarkers are a risk factor for RA patients complicated with ILD, and whether they affect the clinical prognosis of RA-ILD patients.
The goals of this clinical study are to learn more about the study drug, GS-0272, and its safety and tolerability following multiple doses in participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The primary objectives of this study are to assess the safety and tolerability of multiple ascending doses of GS-0272 and to characterize the pharmacokinetics of GS-0272 following multiple doses of GS-0272, in participants with RA.
A randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, positive-controlled, phase 3 study to assess the safety and efficacy of TLL-018 in active rheumatoid arthritis subjects who had an inadequate response or intolerance to Biologic DMARDs.
The aim of this randomised, double-blind, placebo controlled clinical food trial is to determine if the medical food SBD121 Synbiotic (prebiotic and probiotic) will aid in the dietary management of symptoms of early rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
The goal of this open label multicenter randomized controlled pragmatic superiority trial is to investigate the optimal treatment/tapering strategy with rituximab for patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What is the optimal treatment/tapering strategy for rituximab in patients with rheumatoid arthritis in terms of reducing patient reported disease impact? - What is the optimal treatment/tapering strategy for rituximab in patients with rheumatoid arthritis in terms of therapeutic efficacy? Participants will be randomized to one of two study arms: - Tapering based on disease-activity guided dose reduction (experimental arm) - Tapering based on interval prolongation (active comparator arm)
Evaluation of serum KL6 level in rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD).
The goal of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of orally taken probiotic (R-2487) in patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis. Patients will take an oral dosage of probiotic (R-2487) and physicians will assess and measure their Rheumatoid Arthritis. Blood and fecal evaluations of inflammation and assessment of probiotic (R-2487) on fecal level will also be measured.
Autoimmune diseases are the consequence of an abnormality of the immune system, leading it to attack components of our own body. They have a wide variety of presentations. They preferentially affect women, and often at a young age. Systemic lupus erythematosus, for example, most often occurs between the ages of 15 and 40. Inflammatory rheumatism, such as spondyloarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis, is less prevalent in women, but also affects young people, and is particularly common. Several disease-modifying treatments exist, depending on the severity and evolutivitý of the disease. Some are contraindicated or not recommended during pregnancy and therefore require supervision of pregnancy plans. In addition, some treatments have an immunosuppressive activitý, which implies an annual screening of cervical lesions by cervico-uterine smear. In this context, an adapted gynecological follow-up seems indispensable. The rheumatologist and the internist physician have a crucial role in advising and referring patients to their gynecological colleagues. Studying the qualitý of this gynecological follow-up in a cohort of patients with autoimmune disease or inflammatory rheumatism is of major interest.
