Filter by:Primary objective of the study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of canakinumab on the clinical and inflammatory findings of Behced Disease patients with neurologic and vascular involvement.
This study evaluates the safety profile and effectiveness of adalimumab in Korean intestinal Behcet's disease (BD) patients in routine clinical practice.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the proof of concept of efficacy of ustekinumab in subjects with Behçet disease, including patients with oral ulcers (STELABEC-1) and patients with active posterior uveitis or panuveitis (STELABEC-2)
Intravitreal injection of up to 2 mg of infliximab has proved to be safe in animal models (rabbits and primates). These studies have shown no evidence of intraocular inflammation or toxicity by clinical, electrophysiological, and histopathological examination for up to 90 days even with 3 repeated monthly injections. However, the study conducted by Rassi et al was the only one to report the development of severe intraocular inflammation in one eye out of 12 rabbit eyes at 90 days following 3 intravitreal injections (2mg monthly). Unfortunately, clinical studies conducted on patients, so far, have raised serious concern about its safety and adverse effects. These clinical studies have shown various and inconsistent results in terms of the safety and efficacy of intravitreal infliximab. These studies were conducted on patients with refractory as well as naïve cases of age related macular degenerations choroidal neovascularization (AMD CNV), diabetic macular edema (DME), central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO), angiomatous malformations, pseudophakic macular edema, and uveitis. The doses used ranged from 0.5mg to 2mg. The initial study by Theodossaidis et al in 2009 did not report any intraocular inflammation in 3 patients receiving 2 intravitreal injections of 1 and 2 mg for refractory AMD CNV with 7 months follow up period.(8) Later several clinical studies have reported severe intraocular inflammation following intravitreal injections of infliximab in non-uveitic patients.These collected data have initiated a call for cautious use of intravitreal infliximab. On the other hand, studies investigating intravitreal infliximab in uveitis patients have shown improvement in vision, reduction in macular thickness on optical coherence tomography (OCT), and reduction in inflammation. In this study, we have investigated the safety and efficacy of 3 consecutive intravitreal infliximab injections (1 mg/0.05 mL, 6 weeks apart) in carefully selected group of patients with refractory uveitis in Behcet's disease.
The purpose of this study is to learn about the experience of women with vasculitis who become pregnant. In particular, the study will consist of several online surveys to assess 1. each woman's vasculitis severity and pregnancy-related experiences, and 2. pregnancy outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of infliximab in induction regimen by assessing the mean decrease in Disease Activity Index for intestinal Behcet's disease (DAIBD) score of 20 or more in participants with active intestinal Behcet's disease who are refractory to conventional therapies.
The purpose of this study is to learn about the impact of vasculitis on employment and income in patients with different systemic vasculitides. All patients enrolled in the Vasculitis Clinical Research Consortium (VCRC) Patient Contact Registry, living in USA or Canada, and followed for more than 1 year since the vasculitis diagnosis will be invited via email to participate in this study, based on an online survey.
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of apremilast in the treatment of oral ulcers in adults with active Behçet's disease (BD).
The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of gevokizumab in treating Behcet's disease uveitis (BDU).
The purpose of this study is to provide validation of patient-reported data in the VCRC Patient Contact Registry by comparing patient-reported data with data provided by the physician who is the primary provider caring for the patient's vasculitis. Patients enrolled in the Patient Contact Registry with Behcet's disease, eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Churg-Strauss) (EGPA), giant cell arteritis (GCA), granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Wegener's) (GPA), microscopic polyangiitis (MPA), polyarteritis nodosa (PAN), and Takayasu's arteritis (TAK) were invited via email to participate in this study.
