Filter by:This is a randomized controlled trial with blinded assessor on the effects of aerobic exercise (walking)in patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis.
Apremilast is a new, orally available, small molecule drug that specifically inhibits phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4), an enzyme that modulates inflammatory cytokines. This clinical study tests whether apremilast can improve the signs and symptoms of ankylosing spondylitis.
RATIONAL is a multinational, multicentre, observational, cross sectional study of adult patients in treatment with NSAID therapy for OA, RA or AS during for at least 2 weeks before study visit (at least one dose).
This open-label, single-arm, multicenter, multiple single-dose intravenous (IV) infusion, efficacy, and safety extension study of the Phase 1 Study CT-P13 1.1 is designed to assess the long-term efficacy and safety of multiple doses of CT-P13.
- Evaluate the correlation of ultrasound MASEI index with clinical, functional, radiographic and laboratorial variables in patients with ankylosing spondylitis. - Evaluate correlation between articular (shoulders, hips, knees and ankles) ultrasound (synovitis, erosions, power doppler) with same variables. - Evaluate correlation between articular and enthesis ultrasound exam in this study. - Compare patients and healthy individuals data, to calculate the ROC curve to estimate predictor value of disease.
The primary objective of this cross-sectional observational real life study is to investigate the patient reported adherence to PPI, when prescribed as prevention of NSAID associated GI Ulcers to patients prescribed a NSAID. Patients included have Osteoarthritis, Rheumatoid Arthritis or Ankylosing Spondylitis. Adherence will be assessed by patient questionnaires.
This is a prospective, randomized, open-label clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of total glucosides paeony capsules in maintaining clinical remission in patients with ankylosing spondylitis which achieved clinical remission after anti-TNF therapy. Patients will be divided into two groups randomly, one group receive non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs(NSAID) mono-therapy and the other group receive total glucosides paeony capsules plus NSAID therapy for 24 weeks. The primary clinical endpoint is the proportion of patients which disease activity reaches relapse criteria. The investigator's hypothesis the proportion of relapse in total glucosides paeony capsules plus NSAID group would be lower than the NSAID mono-therapy group.
The most common pain-relievers used by patients with rheumatic disorders are called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). These drugs are effective and well documented, but they can cause ulcers and gastrointestinal side effects. Vimovo™ is a tablet containing naproxen (NSAID) and a gastroprotective agent called esomeprazole. Patients with rheumatic disorders, who are at risk for developing gastrointestinal side effects, and where lower doses of naproxen or other NSAID treatment is not considered sufficient, could use this tablet. The regulatory authorities in many European countries have approved the use of Vimovo™, but they would like to understand how various factors influence the doctors' decision to prescribe the tablet and what is characterizing the patients receiving it. The aim of the study is to answer these questions.
This 12-month postmarketing observational study (PMOS) was a prospective, single-arm, multicenter, multi-country study, with follow-up visits at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after the initial baseline visit. The study was conducted to determine the long-term effectiveness of treatment with adalimumab in routine clinical use in participants with Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) and Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) in Central and Eastern European Countries.
Development of an interactive, online pain self-management program for adults who suffer from pain associated with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, Ankylosing spondylitis, and other arthritic conditions (e.g., psoriatic arthritis) using principles from Social Cognitive Theory (Bandura, 1977). This online health intervention, painACTION: Arthritis, will provide clinically reliable information about diagnosis, treatment, and management of arthritis, written for health consumers in a clear and engaging manner to help increase their skills and confidence to use self-management strategies.
