Filter by:This is a research study which is being done to determine the outcomes following Agility LP ankle replacement. This implant was approved by the FDA in 2007 and has been used since then with good early results. You are being asked to volunteer for this study because you have undergone Total Ankle Arthroplasty with Agility LP prosthesis. The purpose of the study is to compare the range of motion, level of pain and function during daily living prior to and after your ankle surgery.
This is a Phase 1, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic study of intravenous and subcutaneous administered golimumab in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
This observational study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of RoActemra/Actemra in patients with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis who have an inadequate response to current non-biologic DMARD and/or anti-TNF therapy. Data will be collected from each patient during RoActemra/Actemra therapy and on follow-up for a total of 12 months.
The study compared the efficacy and assessed the safety of secukinumab given as 3 intravenous (i.v.) loading doses or weekly sub-cutaneous (s.c.) loading doses, compared to placebo, followed by monthly s.c. injections in patients with active Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) despite treatment with Methotrexate.
A Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo Controlled Phase 2 Study To assess the Immune Response Following Administration of Influenza and Pneumococcal Vaccines to Subjects with Rheumatoid Arthritis receiving CP-690,550 with and Without background Methotrexate
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single-dose, dose escalation study in healthy male and or female subjects and subjects with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) to determine the safety and tolerability of MORAb-022.
Chronic joint complaints are prevalent in clinical practice. If chronic arthritis such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is not adequately controlled, it can not only affect patient's working ability but also produce indirect cost in patient's family. Quality of life will also be affected. Health-related quality of life issues are assuming increasing importance in chronic rheumatic diseases. However, studies on quality of life in rheumatic patients are limited. Factors related to quality of life are not clear. Application of quality of life measurement for improving clinical care of RA and AS patients is still difficult. The objective of this study was to evaluation the validity of EQ-5D life quality measurement in chronic arthritis patients in Taiwan. Factors associated with life quality will be addressed. This will also provide useful information for public health policy making.
This study assessed the safety and efficacy of canakinumab pre-filled syringes in comparison to triamcinolone acetonide 40 mg and canakinumab lyophilizate in patients that have frequent flares of acute gouty arthritis.
This multicenter, open-label, single arm study will assess the safety and efficacy of RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) in combination with methotrexate in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis who have an inadequate response to non-biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs). Patients will receive RoActemra/Actemra 8 mg/kg intravenously every 4 weeks for a total of 6 infusions plus methotrexate 10-25 mg orally weekly. Anticipated time on study treatment is 24 weeks.
This is a study which will look at safety, feasibility and acceptability of a new therapy called tolerogenic dendritic cells (TolDC), derived from the patient's own white blood cells, which will be injected into the knee joints of rheumatoid arthritis patients, using a procedure called arthroscopy (a camera examination of a joint). The investigators are also looking to see if the drug has any effect on the disease activity (if it can help in RA) and whether the drug can affect the immune system. The investigators aim to treat 12 patients in total, 9 with TolDC and 3 with a control treatment. Three doses of TolDC will be tested, 3 patients per dose. Subjects will have RA and at least one swollen knee joint. They will undergo a knee ultrasound scan, fill in a series of questionnaires, have their knee aspirated (fluid taken out) and finally undergo a procedure called leukapheresis (removal of white blood cells) from which the treatment will be manufactured. Subsequently they will undergo 3 arthroscopies (camera examination of the knee joint) over a period of about 12 weeks. On the first arthroscopy they will have the TolDC injected into their knee joint. They will then spend the night at the Clinical Research facility for observation. Over the next 5 days they will be telephoned daily by the study doctor to check how they are, and will be reassessed if needed. About 2 weeks later they will have their second arthroscopy to look for effects of treatment, and the third will take place at 13 weeks (end of study) or sooner if the knee appears to get worse.
