Filter by:A complex interaction between demographic, environmental and genetic mechanisms impact the onset, severity and outcome of ILD-SARDs through dysregulation of the immune system and lung pro-biotic pathways. Comorbidity and genetic risk indicate that there are overlapping pathogenic mechanisms among SARDs, some of which underlie ILD in different SARDs. The purpose of this biobank is to study the clinical, pathological, laboratory, and imaging characteristics of SARDs patients with lung involvement. This will help identify as unique features underlying lung involvement in SARDs. In addition, this may lead to the discovery of novel mechanisms of disease and potentially novel targets of treatment for SARDs patients with lung disease.
32 patients with Eaton-Glickel stage 2-3 CMC arthritis will be randomized to receive intraarticular MFAT or intraarticular corticosteroid injection. Patients with inflammatory arthritis or prior thumb base trauma or surgery will be excluded. Autologous adipose tissue will be harvested from the outer thigh or lower abdomen using local anesthesia. Tissue will be processed to remove oil and debris in-office using an FDA-approved commercially available device. The processed adipose will be immediately injected into the thumb CMC joint under fluoroscopic guidance. Visual analogue score (VAS), grip/pinch strength, Kapandji range of motion score, thumb disability examination, and QuickDASH score will be assessed pre-procedure and at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months.
This trial will study the safety and efficacy of intravenous infusion of cultured allogeneic adult umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells for the treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis
This is a Post-Marketing Surveillance study of GMK Sphere cementless knee prosthesis.
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and effects of stimulating the splenic neurovascular bundle (NVB) with the Galvani System, which consists of a lead, implantable pulse generator, external components and accessories. The study will consist of 4 study periods, including a Randomized Control Trial period (Period 1), an Open Label period (Period 2), a Treat-to-target period (Period 3), and a Long-term Follow-up period (Period 4). Participants eligible for implant will have active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and have an inadequate response or intolerance to at least two biologic Disease Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs (DMARDs) or JAK inhibitors (JAKis). A sufficient number of participants will be enrolled so that approximately 28 participants will undergo device implantation.
This is a multicenter, retrospective and prospective, non-controlled post market surveillance study. The objectives of this study are to confirm safety, performance and clinical benefits of the T.E.S.S.® Version 3 Anatomic and Reverse Modular Total shoulder prosthesis and its instrumentation.
Hepatitis B virus reactivation (HBVr) is an emerging issue and a potentially life-threatening complication to patients with history of Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection whose immune system is deficient or suppressed. It is estimated that the risk of HBVr ranges 20%-50% in hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)-positive patients undergoing chemotherapy or immunosuppressive therapy. Not only HBsAg-positive patients but also HBsAg-negative/antibody to hepatitis B core antigen (anti-HBc)-positive patients (resolved hepatitis B) have the risk of HBVr. Recent studies also reported that the risk of HBVr associated with TNF-α inhibitor treatment widely ranged from 12.3% to 62.5%. Antiviral prophylaxis by nucleos(t)ide analogues (NUCs) is recommended for patients with high risk of HBVr according to 2018 AASLD guidance. Phase 3 studies reported that tenofovir alafenamide (Vemlidy, TAF) can effectively suppress HBV in both HBeAg-positive and HBeAg-negative chronic hepatitis B patients, and TAF is superior to TDF in safety profiles and ALT normalization. However, the evidence of TAF in prevention HBV reactivation for patients with HBsAg-positive and imflammatory arthritis, who need bDMARDs are still missing.
This is a randomized, multi-site, adaptive, open-label clinical trial comparing the immune response to different additional doses of COVID-19 vaccine in participants with autoimmune disease requiring IS medications. All study participants will have negative serologic or suboptimal responses (defined as a Roche Elecsys® Anti-SARS-CoV-2 S result ≤200 U/mL) or a low immune response (defined as a Roche Elecsys® Anti-SARS-CoV-2 S result >200 U/ml and ≤2500 U/mL) to their previous doses of COVID-19 vaccine. The study will focus on 5 autoimmune diseases in adults: - Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) - Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) - Multiple Sclerosis (MS) - Systemic Sclerosis (SSc), and - Pemphigus. This study will focus on 4 autoimmune diseases in pediatric participants: - Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) - Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) - Pediatric-Onset Multiple Sclerosis (POMS) - Juvenile Dermatomyositis (JDM)
This study is aim to evaluate the efficacy and safety of technetium [99Tc] methylene diphosphonate (99Tc-MDP, trade name: Yunke) in the treatment of psoriatic arthritis.
to study the effect of anti-inflammatory diet on clinical and biological outcomes in rheumatoid arthritis
