Filter by:This is a Phase 2, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 12-week proof-of-concept study to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of UCB5857 in subjects with primary Sjögren's Syndrome (pSS). The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy on overall disease activity and safety of UCB5857 added to current treatment relative to placebo in subjects with pSS.
This study consists of three consecutive parts. Part 1 in primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) patients (n=2-6) and Part 2 in healthy voluteers (n=3) are feasibility studies to assess if the selected [Zr-89]-rituximab PET/CT method is a valid method to assess B cells in salivary glands of pSS patients. In Part 1 and Part 2 no IMP will be applied to the subjects. In Part 3, pSS patients (n=12) will receive the IMP, VAY736. Posted information will be focused on Part 3. The overarching purpose of this study is to test a new drug (VAY736) for the treatment of pSS. In pSS, the salivary glands (the glands that produce saliva) and other organs are affected by inflammation. A certain type of white blood cells called B cells prominently infiltrate the salivary glands in pSS, whereas they are not present in healthy salivary glands. Scientific evidence suggests that B cells may be involved in the disease process in pSS and that eliminating B cells may benefit patients with pSS. This study will test a new imaging method and a new treatment for pSS. Both the imaging method and the treatment are specific for B cells.
Primary Sjögren's Syndrome (pSS) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by keratoconjunctivitis sicca and xerostomia. In addition, various extraglandular manifestations may develop. Several immunomodulating agents have been attempted in the treatment of pSS without achieving satisfactory results. Currently, there is no approved systemic treatment for pSS. Dysfunction of regulatory T (Treg) cells has been detected in diverse autoimmune diseases, which can be promoted by interleukin-2 (IL-2). The investigators hypothesized that low-dose IL-2 could be a novel therapy in active pSS patients. This clinical study will test the efficacy and safety of low dose IL-2 treatment in pSS. The investigators perform a single-centre, double-blind pilot trial with hrIL-2 in pSS. The investigators evaluate the effectiveness and safeness of low-dose hrIL-2 for primary Sjögren's Syndrome by randomized controlled study (hrIL-2 (N = 30) versus placebo group (N = 30)).
A Phase 2a study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AMG 557/MEDI5872 in Primary Sjögren's Syndrome
This study did evaluate the safety,tolerability and preliminary therapeutic efficacy of multiple doses of intravenous infusion of CFZ533 monoclonal antibody in patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome(pSS)
This study was designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and therapeutic efficacy of a single intravenous infusion of VAY7346 monoclonal antibody in pSS patients
The primary purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Abatacept in subjects with Sjogren's Syndrome (SS). This clinical trial study will enroll and treat 15 subjects with active moderate and severe inflammatory arthritis associated with primary Sjogren's syndrome (pSS) and secondary Sjogren's sybdrine (sSS) with Rheumatoid Arthrits (RA). All subjects will receive Abatacept weekly by Subcutaneous (SC) dosing. Subjects will receive Abatacept by SC injection of 125 mg on day 1 and followed by 125 mg SC weekly thereafter.
Primary Sjögren syndrome (pSS) is an inflammatory, autoimmune, multiorgan disease often involving the central and peripheral nervous systems. Fifteen to twenty percent of patients with the primary Sjögren's syndrome have neurological complications involving the peripheral nervous system. Although some patients have large fiber neuropathy, around forty percent of patients with Sjögren's syndrome experience neuropathic pain with normal electrodiagnostic studies. Although these patients may be diagnosed with fibromyalgia or depressive symptoms, some have been shown to have small fiber neuropathy (SFN). A recent study proved that more than 90% of pSS patients with such neuropathic pain have SFN {Fauchais, 2010 #188}. The aim of this study will be to investigate the occurrence of small fiber neuropathy in patients with pSS and neuropathic pain with normal electromyographic studies and to determine the existence of a conjoint local inflammatory process mediated by cellular, cytokinic or auto-antibody response. Quantification of epidermal nerve fiber density after skin biopsy is a valuable tool to diagnose small fiber neuropathy and the method has been widely validated. A skin biopsy will be performed in patients and control and will allow quantification of small fiber density in skin sample along with measurement of sweat gland innervation. Moreover, pathophysiological studies will be carried on in order to evaluate the causal relationship between cellular and humoral inflammation and small fiberneuropathy. Recent studies have pointed out the inconstant efficacy of both corticosteroid and immunosuppressive drugs in pSS-related SFN. Dissecting the molecular mechanisms of small fiber neuropathy in these patients may help designing new therapeutic strategies.
The purpose of the study is to find out if the experimental study agent, baminercept, is effective in treating patients with Sjögren's syndrome. The study will also determine if the study agent can be safely given to patients with Sjögren's syndrome; examine how it affects symptoms of the disease; and attempt to understand how baminercept affects the underlying mechanisms of Sjögren's syndrome and the immune system.
Exercise may improve physical capacity and health parameters in Primary Syndrome´s Sjogren, Myositis and Takayasu's Arteritis. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the role of an exercise training program in patients with Primary Syndrome´s Sjogren, Myositis and Takayasu's Arteritis.
