Filter by:The study objective of Period 1 of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy (signs and symptoms) of upadacitinib 30 mg once daily (QD) alone and upadacitinib 15 mg QD alone versus continuing MTX alone adults with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with an inadequate response to MTX. The study objective of Period 2 is to evaluate the long term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of upadacitinib 30 mg QD and 15 mg QD in adults with RA who had completed Period 1.
The objectives of Period 1 were the following: - To compare the safety and efficacy of upadacitinib 7.5 mg once daily (QD) monotherapy (for participants in Japan only), 15 mg QD monotherapy, and 30 mg QD monotherapy versus weekly methotrexate monotherapy for the treatment of signs and symptoms of RA in methotrexate-naïve adults with moderately to severely active RA; - To compare the efficacy of upadacitinib 15 mg QD monotherapy and upadacitinib 30 mg QD monotherapy versus weekly methotrexate monotherapy for prevention of structural progression in methotrexate-naïve adults with moderately to severely active RA. The objective of Period 2 is to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of upadacitinib 7.5 mg QD (for participants in Japan only), 15 mg QD, and 30 mg QD in adults with RA who have completed Period 1.
The study objective of Period 1 (Day 1 to Week 24) is to compare the safety and efficacy of upadacitinib 30 mg once daily (QD) and 15 mg QD versus placebo for the treatment of signs and symptoms of participants with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are on a stable dose of csDMARDs and had an inadequate response to or intolerance to at least 1 bDMARD. The study objective of Period 2 (Week 24 to Week 260) is to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of upadacitinib 15 mg QD and 30 mg QD in participants with RA who completed Period 1.
In this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study the effects of underwater ultrasound (US) therapy were investigated in 48 patients with moderately active rheumatoid arthritis (disease activity score in 28 joints (DAS28) ≥3.2 and ≤5.1). Patients randomly assigned to the ultrasound group (N=25) received underwater ultrasound therapy to both wrists and hands for 7 minutes per session with an intensity of 0.7 W/cm2 during 10 sessions. The control group (N=23) received sham treatment under the same conditions. At baseline, at the end of treatment (Week 2) and at the follow-up visit (Week 14), the following parameters were evaluated: disease activity - erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP), tender and swollen joint counts, pain on a visual analogue scale, and DAS28, hand function (fist making, wrist extension and flexion, hand grip strength), quality of life - Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ), and the patients rated their own condition.
This Phase IV post-marketing, non-interventional, open label, non-comparative and prospective study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of rituximab in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis in terms of everyday medical practice. Efficacy and safety of rituximab will be determined 24 weeks after receiving the first infusion, 24 weeks after the first infusion repeated courses of treatment (if the participants receive another course of rituximab) and 24 weeks after the first infusion repeated courses of treatment (if the participants receive third course of rituximab).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of multiple ascending intravenous doses of ASP5094 in male and female subjects with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) on methotrexate (MTX).
The study investigates the effect of a ultrasound-guided subsartorial saphenous block on postoperative pain following major ankle and hind foot surgery.
WA16291 is a Phase IIa "proof-of-concept" study. The primary objective of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of rituximab (a B cell depleting chimeric monoclonal antibody) used either as monotherapy or in combination with methotrexate or cyclophosphamide in participants with rheumatoid arthritis who have failed prior Disease Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drug (DMARD) therapy and currently have an inadequate clinical response to methotrexate.
The purpose of this study is to determine if music therapy interventions as adjunct to standard surgical care reduces pre- and post-operative pain and anxiety in patients undergoing total shoulder arthroplasty as compared with patients who receive standard of care without music therapy.
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic and auto-immune disorder whose primary characteristic is the chronic inflammation of joints. The objective of this study was to evaluate whether there was an association between the NF-KB1/IKK epsilon genetic expression and the clinical activity in RA. 60 RA patients were included in the study, 30 with clinical activity and 30 with clinical remission The NF-KB1/IKK epsilon genetic expression was performed by real time quantitative Polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) through the Pfaffl method of relative quantification with Taqman probes.
