Filter by:The purpose of the study is to assess systemic certolizumab pegol (CZP) exposure, the formation of anti-CZP antibodies and safety of CZP across the course of pregnancy in study participants with chronic inflammatory diseases.
The purpose of this global study was to demonstrate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of an intravenous (i.v.) regimen of secukinumab compared to placebo in participants with active ankylosing spondylitis (AS) or non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (nr-axSpA ) at Week 16 despite current or previous non-steroidal anti inflammatory drugs (NSAID), disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARD) and/or anti Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) therapy. In addition, to further support efficacy and safety of an i.v. regimen, data was collected for up to 52 weeks of treatment.
Study Design: A randomized, prospective, pilot, controlled trial. Setting: Rheumatology and rehabilitation department Minia University and Sohag University Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of caudal epidural injections with triamcinolone and lidocaine in managing limited spine mobility in axial SPA. Methods: Patients were randomly assigned to one of 2 groups, Group I patients received caudal epidural injections with 1% lidocaine hydrochloride (xylocaine AstraZeneca) 9 mL mixed with 1 mL of triamcinolone 40 milligrams (Kenacort Bristol Myers Squip), whereas Group II patients did not receive. Both groups were age and sex matched and both were under treatment with anti TNF and NSAIDs with or without sDMARDs.
The purpose of this study is to compare selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and non selective COX inhibitors with respect to the extent to which disease activity is improved without self reported, unacceptable side effects among individual patients with axial spondyloarthritis (AxSpA),to compare selective COX-2 and nonselective COX inhibitors impact on Health related Quality of Life (HrQOL) and how this relates to changes in disease activity and to conduct proteomic assessment of predictive biomarkers of non steroidal anti-inflammatory drug(NSAID) response
Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is a group of inflammatory rheumatic conditions with inflammatory back pain caused by inflammation in the sacroiliac joints (SIJ) and back as hallmark. Currently, no laboratory test or biomarker is cable of differentiating between patients with early-stage axSpA and persisting low back pain of other causes. The objective of this study is to investigate the predictive value of baseline levels of the biomarkers Complement C3d and high-sensitive C-reactive protein (HsCRP) identifying bone marrow oedema (BME) at MRI of the SIJ at baseline.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate candidate predictors of persistence on adalimumab (Imraldi®) participants diagnosed with immune-mediated inflammatory disease in Europe (EU). The secondary objectives of this study are to describe participant clinical characteristics at baseline, utilization of Imraldi® over time, biologic drug effectiveness over time, participant satisfaction with biologic administration, routine laboratory values and clinical evaluation measurements over time, use of relevant concomitant medication use over time, immunogenicity of biosimilars and to summarize safety events.
There is a lack of knowledge among patients concerning their treatment with bDMARDs, which could lead to low adherence. The objective of this study is to assess the impact of a pharmacist's intervention on the adherence to bDMARDs in patients with Spondyloarthritis.
The general main objective of our study is to investigate the psychometric properties, the levels and determinants of the extent of SF- 6D utility in patients followed for recent back pain inflammatory disease. The specific objectives are : - Study the feasibility of the tool considering missing data, distribution, construct validity, reproducibility, sensitivity to change or clinically different groups (discriminative ability) the extent of SF -6D utility . - Study the impact of socio-demographic characteristics, disease characteristics and quality of life, comorbidities at baseline on the measurement of utility and sensitivity to change.
A joint meeting of the ASAS (Assessment of Spondyloarthritis Internal Society) and SPARTAN (Spondyloarthritis Research and Treatment Network) executive boards recommended that the existing ASAS classification criteria for spondyloarthritis undergo further validation. SPARTAN is in charge of conducting a a prospective study of a North American cohort of patients presenting with undiagnosed active chronic back pain to rheumatologists in the US and Canada, and one site in Mexico. ASAS is in charge of conducting a similar study in Europe and other parts of the world.
In the first study group will participate patients with spine osteoarthritis who will be treated in polish spas in Subcarpathian Region. Complex physiotherapy including balneotherapy will be applied in study group participants. In the second study group will participate patients with spine osteoarthritis who will be treated in outpatient treatment. Complex physiotherapy without balneotherapy will be applied in second study group participants. In the control group will participate patients with spine osteoarthritis who will not have applied physiotherapy nor balneotherapy during observation. In all patients will be evaluated quality of life, level of pain intensity and health assessment.
