Filter by:Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies lead to important functional limitations resulting from the loss of muscle strength and endurance, especially in the hip and shoulder, which leads to a significant loss of quality of life for patients. The aim of this study is to correlate the "Myositis Functional Index-3 (FI-3)" with muscle function assessed by computerized isokinetic dynamometry, electromyography and magnetic resonance through an observational study; and to compare the effects of a repetitive task training program with a resistance exercise program through an interventional study in patients with inflammatory myopathies. It is expected that FI-3 will present a good correlation with muscle function assessed by computerized isokinetic dynamometry and electromyography, given its reduced cost and less time spent on evaluation. It is also expected to demonstrate that repetitive task training is as efficient and safe as resistance exercises.
To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) based on the safety and tolerability after single-dose administration of PN-101 in patients with refractory polymyositis or dermatomyositis. To explore the efficacy after single-dose administration of PN-101 in patients with refractory polymyositis or dermatomyositis.
This study will investigate Umbilical Cord Lining Stem Cells (ULSC) as an investigational medicinal product and its use in patients with polymyositis (PM) or dermatomyositis (DM) to see if a single intravenous (IV) infusion of allogeneic umbilical cord lining stem cells (ULSC) safe, tolerable, and feasible to administer.
This is an open-label study to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of KZR-616 in patients with active PM or DM who completed the double-blind treatment period of Study KZR-616-003, up to and including the Week 32 Visit, prior to the first dose of open-label KZR-616.
This study evaluates the effects of a high-intensity strength training in patients with myositis with the primary outcome being quality of life (SF-36). The study is designed as a parallel group randomised controlled trial with an intervention group and a control group.
To facilitate clinical, basic science, and translational research projects involving the study of rheumatic diseases.
This was a Phase 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover, multicenter study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of treatment with KZR-616 in patients with active polymyositis (PM) or dermatomyositis (DM). Patients were evaluated for eligibility during the Screening Period. Eligible patients were stratified by diagnosis of DM or PM and randomized 1:1 to Arm A or Arm B of the study. During the 32-week treatment period, patients received study drug subcutaneously (SC) once weekly with 2 treatment periods of 16 weeks each. This study was conducted on an outpatient basis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ustekinumab in participants with active polymyositis (PM)/dermatomyositis (DM) despite receiving 1 or more standard-of-care treatments (for example, glucocorticoids and/or immunomodulators).
This case control study aims to determine whether spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is associated with autoimmune diseases and to update the incidence of SCAD in a population-based cohort.
Patient Power is a patient research network and database (registry) to collect prospective information about demographics, self-reported diagnoses and medications, and willingness to participate in research from participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), spondyloarthritis (SpA), other musculoskeletal conditions, chronic neurological conditions like migraine, chronic pulmonary conditions like Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), asthma, autoimmune dermatological conditions such as psoriasis, and other chronic inflammatory or immune-mediated conditions. In addition, since patients with chronic conditions often have other co-morbidities like cardiovascular health and obesity-related metabolic disorders, these conditions will also be included. Participants will provide information from their smartphones or personal computers. The information will be used by researchers and clinicians to help patients and their providers make better, more informed decisions about treatment of chronic conditions.
