Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of PRTX-100 when various doses are given 5 times at weekly intervals to patients with active rheumatoid arthritis that are taking methotrexate or leflunomide. The drug is administered in a physician's office via an intravenous infusion. PRTX-100 may be effective in rheumatoid arthritis by suppressing the immune responses. PRTX-100 is a highly-purified bacterial protein called Staphylococcal Protein A. In this study, cohorts of patients with active RA will receive sequentially higher doses of PRTX-100. There will be an inactive placebo cohort for comparison. Patients who do not attain low RA disease activity, by a commonly used measure, will leave the study at 3 months after their first dose of study drug.
Rheumatologists treating patients with seronegative arthritis will be randomized to treat their patients to a target or to treat their patients under their usual standard of care. All physicians will perform an initial chart audit. Following the initial chart audit, all physicians in the treat-to-target group will receive accredited educational training. Six months after the initial chart audit, all physicians will perform a repeat audit to see if patients are assessed more systematically and treated to a target of low disease state.
The aims of this study are to assess the efficacy and safety of tacrolimus in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis(RA). EULAR(European League Against Rheumatism) response at week 24 compared to baseline will be evaluated to assess the efficacy of Tacrolimus.
This study was designed to estimate the effects of methotrexate (MTX) on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of CP-690,550 when administered to subjects with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), to estimate the effects of CP-690,550 on the PK of MTX and to evaluate the short-term safety and tolerability of co-administration of CP-690,550 and MTX.
The study was performed to investigate the effects of a daily consumption of n-3 LC-PUFA supplemented products (sausage, tomato spread, milk beverage) on disease activity, inflammatory markers, and cardiovascular risk factors in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
This observational study evaluates the use and efficacy of intravenous (IV) tocilizumab (Actemra) in routine clinical practice in patients with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis. Eligible patients initiated on tocilizumab treatment in accordance with the local label were followed for 6 months.
This is a phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple ascending dose study in healthy volunteers, multiple dose study in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and multiple dose study in healthy volunteers.
Pharmacokinetics (PK) study
This study will compare the clinical outcomes for patients undergoing a total knee replacement using a bipolar sealer, the Aquamantys® System, as compared to standard electrocautery. Total blood loss during the hospital stay and knee mobility and discharge factors will be analyzed.
This was a single-arm, multicenter, open label, prospective cohort study (post-marketing observational study) to determine the effectiveness and safety of adalimumab in combination with high-dose methotrexate (≥12 mg/week) in participants with rheumatoid arthritis in a routine clinical setting in Japan.
