This is a 36 week open-label extension of the canakinumab pre-filled syringe study for safety and tolerability in patients who have frequent flares of acute gouty arthritis.
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic autoimmune and chronic inflammatory disease that causes progressive damage to joints of the body, affecting the functional capacity. Effective management of patients with RA requires a multidisciplinary approach. Despite the various combinations, there is a significant population of RA patients who are not responding to these combinations or showing inadequate response to methotrexate alone. Hence, there is a need for a unique combination of drugs targeting different pathological process to yield the best results in those patients where prognosis is poor. Combination of revamilast with first line therapy like methotrexate could provide better treatment options to a larger population of RA patients having moderate to severe disease and who are inadequately controlled on one or the other DMARDs. This is randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study. The study will include patients with active RA receiving stable and maximum tolerated dose of MTX. Patients will be recruited after providing written informed consent. After screening and run in period (single blind placebo for 4 weeks), patients will be randomized (meeting randomization criteria) in 1:2:2:2 ratios to receive either one of three doses (Low, Medium and High) of revamilast or placebo along with MTX. The primary objective of the study is to determine the percentage of patients achieving ACR20 response at 12 weeks. Secondary objectives include determining percentage of patients with ACR50 and ACR70 response, change in DAS-28 score, change in serum CRP and ESR values and frequency and use of rescue medication. During the treatment period, there will be 5 further study visits at week 2, week 4, week 8, week 12, for efficacy, safety and tolerability assessment and visit at week 14 will be follow up visit.
This study aims to confirm if patients with a specific biomarker might have a better response to secukinumab treatment. To meet this purpose, exploratory biomarker studies will be done. The goals of these exploratory studies are to (1) find biomarkers that will identify persons with rheumatoid arthritis who will have the best possible response to secukinumab and (2) to identify persons who will have fewer side effects in order to maximize their benefit from secukinumab.
This is a 8-year extension study in pediatric subjects who have been diagnosed with one of 3 subtypes of Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) [extended oligoarticular JIA, enthestitis related arthritis (ERA), or psoriatic arthritis (PsA)] who have completed approximately 96 weeks of participation in study 0881A1-3338 (B1801014). The study contains an active treatment period, withdrawal/re-treatment period and a observational period (non-treatment).
The primary objective of this study is to determine the safety of LX3305 in a dose escalation compared with placebo over 12 weeks in subjects with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
This is a proof of concept study asking if alkaline phosphatase injections can reduce acute inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine if a dose of 40 mg dexamethasone is more effective as pain treatment than the currently used dose of 8 mg after arthroscopic shoulder surgery.
This Investigation is to be performed for the purpose of assessing the following information in the long-term post-marketing daily medical practice in the patients who receive REUMATOLEX 2 mg Capsule for the treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) at the dose higher than 8 mg/week. 1. Condition of occurrence of ADRs 2. Factors considered to affect safety 3. Verification of efficacy
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of ISIS CRP Rx and its effects on CRP and other pharmacodynamic measures, versus placebo, in subjects with active rheumatoid arthritis.
