View clinical trials related to Spondylitis, Ankylosing.
Filter by:Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a rheumatoid disease affecting all segments of the axial skeleton, leading to the complete fusion of all spinal segments - the bamboo-spine. During the last decade biological disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (bDMARD) have been successfully introduced to reduce the disease activity. It is unclear whether bDMARD treatment had an effect on spinal fracture risk related to AS. This national registry study will investigate the effect of bDMARD treatment on spinal fracture risk in a national cohort of patients with AS.
BCD-085-3 is a next step in clinical investigation of BCD-085. BCD-085 is a monoclonal antibody to interleukin 17. During the trial patients with active ankylosing spondylitis will receive 40, 80 or 120 mg of BCD-085 subcutaneously at weeks 0, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12. Efficacy and safety parameters will be evaluated.
This study assessed the clinical Assessment of SpondyloArthritis international Society (ASAS) 20 response to secukinumab and evaluated to which extent concomitant nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) treatment can be reduced in patients treated with secukinumab or placebo following an initial run-in phase of stable NSAID therapy.
BCD-055-2 is international multi-center comparative double-blind randomized clinical trial to evaluate efficacy and safety of BCD-055 (JSC "BIOCAD", Russia) and Remicade® in patients with ankylosing spondylitis. BCD-055 is biosimilar of infliximab (JSC "BIOCAD", Russia)
To evaluate the impact of treatment with a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) - Celecoxib - when added to anti-tumour necrosis factor (TNF) therapy - Golimumab - as compared to anti-TNF therapy (Golimumab) alone on progression of structural damage in the spine over two years in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS).
The objective of this post-marketing observational study (PMOS) was to evaluate the effectiveness of adalimumab plus the AbbVie Care 2.0 patient support program in participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), ankylosing spondylitis (AS), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), psoriasis (Ps), Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC) in the routine clinical setting in Hungary.
The purpose of this study was to assess the clinical efficacy, safety and tolerability of secukinumab subcutaneous injections up to 52 weeks in Japanese patients with active AS despite current or previous non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and/or anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) α therapy. Efficacy and safety data were used to support the registration of secukinumab in Japan for the treatment of active AS.
The biopsychosocial model is well established in chronic low back pain (CLBP) research. Nevertheless, researchers to date have overlooked the biopsychosocial aspects of Inflammatory Low Back pain (ILBP). Most health care providers are biologically oriented in their treatment of ILBP, neglecting its possible multidimensional nature. It is true that people with ILBP may present with more complex pain and physical limitations than those with chronic non-specific low back pain (CNSLBP), but it remains unexplored whether or not these limitations are affected by the same pain factors that affect CNSLBP patients. This study aims to explore and compare the biopsychosocial back pain profiles of adults with ILBP and CNSLBP.
Background: Ankylosing spondylitis imposes burdens on individuals and society that AS costs 3 times higher than general population. Conventional approaches for AS have their limitation. Previous studies demonstrated acupuncture has significant therapeutic effects for AS in diminishing joint pain, enhancing functional disorders and modifying spinal deformity. Although acupuncture is effective in relieving pain in AS patients, the evidence is very limited due to methodological flaws. Design This study will be a single-arm pilot study in patients with AS. Eligible subjects will receive electroacupuncture treatment twice per week for at least 6 weeks (12 sessions in total). The length of treatment can be extended to a maximum of 10 weeks (20 sessions in total) if participants request a prolonged treatment. The acupuncturist, who is a registered Chinese medicine practitioner, of this trial will not participate in data collection and data entry. Objective: To explore the treatment effect of electroacupuncture for relieving pain in ankylosing spondylitis. Setting: Hong Kong Participants: 20 subjects with a diagnosis of ankylosing spondylitis Main Measures: Pain Severity Numerical Rating Scale (NRS), Adverse events Data analysis All data will be double-entered and checked for consistency before conducting the analysis. Binomial test will be used to analyze the percentage of responders to treatment compared with a reference value of 10%. Wilcoxon signed rank test will be used to compare the values of all continuous variables between baseline and post treatment. The population for safety analyses will include all subjects who receive at least one acupuncture treatment. Adverse events will be coded using the WHO Adverse Reaction Terminology Dictionary. Special attention will be given to those subjects who have discontinued treatment due to adverse events or who experience serious adverse events.
To assess persistence of CT-P13 in patients with Rheumatoid Diseases (Rheumatoid arthritis [RA], ankylosing spondylitis [AS], and psoriatic arthritis [PsA]) who are naïve to biologics or are switching from stable Remicade to CT-P13. The main objectives of the study are: - To evaluate real-life drug persistence in RA, AS, and PsA patients who are either initiated with CT-P13 as their first biologic, or who are switched from stable Remicade - To characterise the patient populations and drug usage patterns of RA, AS, and PsA patients who are either initiated with CT-P13 as their first biologic, or who are switched from stable Remicade - To assess the safety of CT-P13 in RA, AS, and PsA patients who are either initiated with CT-P13 as their first biologic, or who are switched from stable Remicade for up to 2 years
