Filter by:This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of the trial is to investigate the mechanism of action of NNC0109-0012 (anti-IL-20 mAb) through synovial biopsies in subjects with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and an inadequate response to Methotrexate.
To determine the accuracy of unguided versus ultrasound (US) guided knee joint injections in obese patients with no clinically detectable effusion.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the combination of abatacept along with entecavir (the study drugs) is safe and effective in treating symptoms related to rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Abatacept, given in an intravenous (IV - injected into a vein) as well as subcutaneous form, is approved by the FDA for the treatment of RA. In this research, abatacept will be given by injection. A subcutaneous injection is an injection given under the skin. Entecavir, to be taken by mouth, is approved by the FDA for the treatment of hepatitis B. The study is divided into the following time periods: Screening Phase: Up to 4 weeks Randomized Double-blind Phase: 24 weeks Open-label Extension Phase: 24 weeksFollow-up Phase: a phone call after Week 48 Each phase contains one or more study visits.
The primary purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Abatacept in subjects with Sjogren's Syndrome (SS). This clinical trial study will enroll and treat 15 subjects with active moderate and severe inflammatory arthritis associated with primary Sjogren's syndrome (pSS) and secondary Sjogren's sybdrine (sSS) with Rheumatoid Arthrits (RA). All subjects will receive Abatacept weekly by Subcutaneous (SC) dosing. Subjects will receive Abatacept by SC injection of 125 mg on day 1 and followed by 125 mg SC weekly thereafter.
In case of severe ankle arthritis, the two common surgical treatments are tibiotalar arthrodesis and total ankle arthroplasty. Few studies have compared these treatments and it remains difficult to determine which operation is the better solution for end stage ankle arthritis. The purpose of the present study is to analyze patient's outcome after each type of ankle surgery and to describe the decision making process.
This observational study will evaluate the use and efficacy of RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) in monotherapy in routine clinical practice in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Eligible patients initiated on RoActemra/Actemra treatment according to the approved label will be followed for 6 months.
Autologous stromal vascular fraction (SVF) injected at 8 and 10 days after extraction is safe and useful procedure in inducing remission of RA in patients resistant to standard DMARD therapy.
This open-label, single arm study will evaluate the effect of RoActemra/Actemra in combination with methotrexate on articular damage in the hand (synovitis/osteitis and erosions) in patients with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis who have an inadequate response to non-biological disease-modifying ante-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs). Patients will receive RoActemra/Actemra 8 mg/kg intravenously every 4 weeks for 24 weeks.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcomes of patients who have previously undergone tibiotalar arthrodesis using an anterior approach with blade-plate fixation for tibiotalar arthritis secondary to injury to the articular surface of the distal tibia.
This proposal will test the hypothesis that Orencia affects apoptosis and apoptosis related genes/biomarkers in vivo in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients.
