Filter by:The purpose of this study is to verify the superiority of ASP015K in combination with MTX or with other disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) over placebo in terms of efficacy in participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who had an inadequate response or intolerance to MTX, as measured by the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 20 response rate at Week 24. This study will also evaluate the pharmacokinetics and safety of ASP015K as well as efficacy and safety of long-term treatment with ASP015K (52 weeks).
The goal of treating patients diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is to achieve remission or low disease activity and thereby prevent joint damage, loss of physical function, and disability. Optimal management requires regular assessment of disease activity, with treatment changes made as needed for optimal efficacy. Vectra is a blood serum test that looks at 12 biomarkers and produces a score on a scale of 1 to 100. The Vectra score has been shown to be the strongest predictor of risk for progression of disease. There is opportunity to gain more information about the utility of Vectra in a real-world clinical setting. This study will, therefore, evaluate the utility of Vectra for guiding treatment decisions and improving RA-related outcomes in comparison with usual care, which will not include Vectra testing. This study will enable a direct evaluation of the clinical benefit associated with using Vectra to guide treatment decisions in patients with RA.
Phase 1b. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of subcutaneous (SC) dose administrations of Efavaleukin alfa in subjects with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Phase 2a. To evaluate the efficacy of Efavaleukin alfa at week 12 as measured by the American College of Rheumatology 20 percent improvement criteria (ACR 20) in adult subjects with moderate to severe RA.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of adalimumab on health outcomes in participants with rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis and plaque psoriasis.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of ASP5094 in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) treated with background methotrexate (MTX).
This study aims to evaluate the impact of AbbVie Care 2.0 on adalimumab's compliance, patient reported outcomes and utilization of health resources over 12 months.
Assessment of the adjuvant use Niclosamide With Etanercept in Rheumatoid Arthritis
The study objective of Period 1 was to compare the safety and efficacy of upadacitinib 15 mg once daily (QD) to abatacept on a background of conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (csDMARDs) for the treatment of signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (bDMARD)-inadequate response or bDMARD-intolerant participants with moderately to severely active RA. The study objective of Period 2 is to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of upadacitinib 15 mg QD in participants with RA who had completed Period 1.
The study objectives of Period 1 of this study were to compare the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of upadacitinib versus placebo for the treatment of signs and symptoms of subjects from China and selected countries including Brazil and South Korea with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are on a stable dose of csDMARDs and have an inadequate response to csDMARDs. The study objective of Period 2 is to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of upadacitinib in subjects with RA who have completed Period 1.
Background : Inflammatory arthritis (rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or spondyloarthritis (SpA) are painful chronic diseases which impair quality of life and work capacity. Biologics are very effective and widely used therapies. However, they are known to entail risks, particularly of infections. The risk of severe infections is of 5%/patient-year with a maximum during the first six month after the initiation of the first biologic therapy. Patient education (PE) is recommended for the management of chronic diseases. In the case of biologics, PE aims to help patients to learn specific skills particularly on safety issues, e.g stopping the biologic treatment in case of fever or surgery. Safety skills are assessed by the validated BIOSECURE questionnaire. PE seems efficient for safety skills in a few non-randomized studies. In 2010 a national cross sectional survey on 677 patients showed that the risk of incorrect answers in the BIOSECURE questionnaire was 4 times lower among patients who had benefited from an education by a nurse or other kind of educational process (OR =3,8 IC95% :[1,68-8,8]. Aims and Hypothesis: this trial aims to investigate the effects of a nurse-led self-management education face to face intervention on safety skills of patients with arthritis treated par sub cutaneous biologics. Our hypothesis is that the intervention group will report better skills at the 6 months follow up compared to usual care i.e information by the rheumatologist in current consultation. Methods : multicentric randomized controlled open trial with blinded assessment of the primary outcome. The intervention group will have a nurse education consultation at M 0 and M3 in addition to the usual care by the rheumatologist. The nurse will assess the patients' health beliefs and educational needs, focusing on safety skills, self-injections and motivation. The control group will have usual care by the rheumatologist.
