Filter by:Prospective study on the effect of partial wrist denervation (ie combined anterior and posterior interosseous neurectomy) on pain relief on functional outcome in patient with wrist osteoarthritis. The impact of psychological factors on postoperative outcome will be studied.
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is an inflammatory arthritis with substantial variation in clinical features. We propose a multicenter collaborative approach to better understand the phenotypes and current management of PsA in the United States.The central goal of this proposal is to obtain the data necessary to design a pragmatic trial in PsA.
The fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB) is a regional block that anesthetizes the femoral, obturator, and lateral femoral cutaneous nerves around the hip. The purpose of this study is to determine whether FICB can reduce postoperative pain and increase progress with physical therapy after total hip arthroplasty (THA). This randomized, double-blind, clinical trial will randomize patients to receive either a FICB or placebo after THA. The primary outcomes will be pain scores reported by the patient post-operatively.
The aim of the study is to investigate the link between pro-inflammatory T cells responses arising in the skin in patients with cutaneous psoriasis and those present in the joints of patients developing psoriatic arthritis. The study is based on the hypothesis that a fraction of T cells with memory phenotype can recirculate from the skin and relocalize at extracutaneous sites including enthesis or synovial tissue thus propagating the pro-inflammatory cycle. This could represent a pathogenic mechanism in the development of PsA. The main aim of the study is to define the phenotypic and functional differences of circulating T cells in patients cutaneous psoriasis, patients with psoriatic arthritis and in control group of healthy subject. To this end the investigators analyze the expression of cell surface markers of central memory (TCM), effector memory (TEM) and effector (Teff) cells, within this subsets the investigators evaluate the expression of chemokine receptors as well as skin and tissue homing molecules. There will be also an evaluation of the T cell polarization towards Th1/Tc1 or Th17/Tc17 phenotype by evaluating the cytokine expression profile. In selected patients with PsA the researchers analyze in parallel the phenotype and the cytokine profile of T cell subpopulations in peripheral blood and in synovial fluid, The results of this study could possibly allow to define distinctive features of circulating T cells in patients with PsA and to understand the link between circulating and synovial fluid T cells in patients with PsA.
This is a phase 2a study to be run in 2-3 countries in European Union involving 5-6 sites. It will enroll approximately 80 patients to ensure 40 randomized with active rheumatoid arthritis. The treatment period is 2 weeks and total study duration per patient is approximately 1 month. The study drugs are AZD9567 40 mg (an oral SGRM) and the comparator is prednisolone 20mg. The primary endpoint is DAS28 including evaluation of 28 joints and C-reactive protein. Safety parameters will also be evaluated and a biomarker program is included for future research.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the ability of subjects who are already prescribed Certolizumab Pergol therapy and have been self injecting with prefilled syringes for at least the previous three months, to safely and effectively self-inject Certolizumab Pegol (CZP) using the e-Device and to evaluate the post-use structural integrity of used devices and cassettes via visual examination.
To compare the PK profiles of HLX01 and Rituximab in Chinese patients with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis.
The purpose of this observational study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of biosimilar Infliximab in patients with rheumatoid arthritis(RA) in Jordan where no visits or intervention(s) additional to the daily practice will be performed
This is a study to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of bimekizumab in subjects with psoriatic arthritis
This study evaluates the addition of a structured nurse led patient management programme to standard of care in gout patients. Half of the patient will receive the nurse led programme in addition to standard of care and the other half will receive standard of care only.
