Rhumatoid Arthisis clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

Papillomavirus Load in Rheumatic Inflammatory Diseases

Start date: January 9, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and spondyloarthritis (SpA) are the two most common chronic inflammatory rheumatism, with a prevalence in the French population of 0.3% and 0.4%, according to the criteria European League Against Rheumatism / American College of Rheumatology (EULAR / ACR) 2010 and Assessemnt of SpondyloArthritis International Society (ASAS) 2009 respectively. In patients whose pathology is resistant to first-line treatment, such as methotrexate for rheumatoid arthritis and peripheral spondyloarthritis, or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs for axial spondyloarthritis, the treatment is based on biotherapies, such as anti-inflammatory drugs. -TNF, to obtain effective control of the disease and prevent joint damage. Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, the leading risk factor for cervical carcinoma, is the most common sexually transmitted infection (STI) with a particularly high prevalence among young women. In addition, anti-TNF, used in the treatment of RA and SpA, and anti-IL6 receptor, used in that of RA, could have opposite effects on HPV-dependent oncogenesis. Thus, patients with RA or SpA may have a higher risk than the general population of progression to cervical cytological abnormalities. Evaluation of the chronic carriage of HPV would then be a useful tool in the management of these patients.
