Filter by:The purpose of this clinical research study is to learn if abatacept is safe when co-administered with other approved rheumatoid arthritis medications.
The purpose of this clinical research study is to determine whether abatacept treatment on a background of Disease Modifying Antirheumatic Drugs (DMARDs) will relieve the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in participants who are currently receiving anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) therapy for at least 3 months and are not responding or have taken anti-TNF therapy in the last 3 months and did not respond. The safety of treatment with abatacept will also be evaluated. This study also has a 4.5-year long-term extension beginning 6 months after the start of the study.
Short Term: The purpose of this clinical research study is to learn if abatacept (BMS-188667) in combination with methotrexate is better than methotrexate alone in participants that have active rheumatoid arthritis and are not responding to methotrexate. The safety of this treatment will also be studied. Long Term Extension: The purpose of this amendment is to provide participants who have completed the initial 12-month double-blind treatment period the opportunity to receive open label treatment with active drug treatment until abatacept is approved in the local country or until clinical development has been discontinued.
This is a multicenter, Phase 3 randomized, placebo-controlled study designed to evaluate adalimumab in children 4 to 17 years old with polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) who are either methotrexate (MTX) treated or non-MTX treated.
ISIS 104838 is an antisense oligonucleotide drug that reduces the production of a specific protein called tumor necrosis factor (TNF-alpha), a substance that contributes to joint pain and swelling in rheumatoid arthritis. ISIS 104838 works by blocking TNF-alpha messenger RNA, the "instruction" molecule that is required for the production of TNF-alpha protein. This trial will assess the safety and efficacy of ISIS 1048383 by subcutaneous injection, administered by 3 different dosing regimens for 3 months, versus placebo. Approximately 160 TNF-alpha inhibitor-naïve rheumatoid arthritis patients will be evaluated at 32 sites in the U.S. and Canada.
The main objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of six escalating doses of SCIO-469 in RA patients. SCIO-469 belongs to a new class of treatments that inhibit p38 kinase, a stimulatory modulator of pro-inflammatory factors including tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), interleukin-1 (IL-1), and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), all of which are known to contribute to both symptoms and disease progression in patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis.
A 12-week trial consisting of 5 visits (6 if follow up is needed) to find out how effective and safe three different doses of meloxicam are compared with placebo in Rheumatoid Arthritis. Patient will take one dose of study medication daily.
This clinical study is investigating AMG 719, an investigational drug, for the treatment of patients who have Rheumatoid Arthritis and who are taking Methotrexate. AMG 719 is a drug which is self-injected beneath the skin (similarly to the way insulin is self-injected by diabetics). Patients on this study are on study for 28-weeks. They visit the study facility at least 11 times while participating in the study.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of anakinra (IL-1 ra) and pegsunercept (PEG sTNF-RI) when they are used together in improving the signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis. The study will also evaluate the safety of the combination treatment and its effect on slowing down bone and joint destruction due to rheumatoid arthritis. The results will be compared to the effect when only 1 single medication (anakinra or pegsunercept) is used.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of anakinra in patients with Polyarticular-Course Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis, a form of rheumatoid arthritis affecting children.
