Filter by:People with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) experience a diagnostic delay of 6.5 years in men and up to 8.8 years in women. One of the reasons for the diagnostic delay seems to be limited awareness of the disease characteristics in the referring health care professionals in primary care. By raising awareness about the disease, the study aims at reducing the diagnostic delay and improving early treatment. In addition to diagnostic and pharmacological treatment, physical exercise and rehabilitation are recommended in people with axSpA. In Denmark, people with axSpA are only offered free of charge physiotherapy when the disease has progressed to a stage with radiographic changes of the spine even though people in the early stage of axSpA report a similar disease burden. The overall objective of Spondyloarthritis Inception Cohort of Southern Denmark (SPINCODE) is to set up an axSpA inception cohort among individuals with low back pain ≥ 3 months who are considered to be at risk for axSpA. The investigators aim to learn more about the course of axSpA during the early stage of disease appropriately assess outcomes, including novel imaging techniques and identify predictive outcomes. Moreover, the investigators want to test the effect of an outpatient physiotherapist-coordinated rehabilitation intervention in people suspected of having axSpA.
The purpose of this multi-center, randomized, clinical study is to show that the treatment of degenerative lumbar spine with high- or mid-flex rods is not inferior to the treatment with low-flex rods in terms of clinical and safety-related results. The primary aim is to compare the reduction in back pain after the treatment with high- or mid-flex rods with that after treatment with low-flex rods. Secondary, the functionality after treatment with high- or mid-flex rods will be compared to that after treatment with low-flex rods.
The main objective is to evaluate the implementation of a hybrid care model called the mixed attention model (MAM) in clinical practice and to evaluate whether its implementation improves clinical outcomes compared to conventional follow-up. This is a multicenter prospective observational study involving 360 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and Spondylarthritis (SpA) from five Spanish Hospitals. Patients will be followed-up by the MAM protocol, which is a care model that incorporates the use of digital tool consisting of a mobile application (App) that patients can use at home and that professionals can review asynchronously to detect incidents and to follow their patients; clinical evolution between face-to-face visits. Another group of patients, whose follow-up will be conducted in accordance with a traditional face-to-face care model, will be assessed as the control group. Sociodemographic characteristics, treatments, laboratory parameters, assessment of tender and swollen joints, visual analogue scale for pain and electronic patient reported outcome reports (ePROs) will be collected for all subjects. In the MAM group, these items will be self-assessed both by the mobile App and during face-to-face visits with rheumatologist, who will do the same for patients included in the traditional care model. Patients will be able to report any incidence related to their disease or treatment through the mobile App.
Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is a group of chronic inflammatory pathologies whose progression over time is poorly defined, and in particular the clinical and instrumental elements that can predispose to a condition of disease severity are not completely known. It would be important to have an idea of what the predisposing factors are, possibly already at baseline, and possibly also at follow up, of severe disease, so as to be able to act early with more aggressive and targeted therapies on these patients, so as to achieve remission.
This study will evaluate the effect and safety of 608 in patients with AS.
This study will evaluate the effect and safety of 608 in patients with nr-axSpA.
The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of dynamic balance exercises added to current medical treatment on balance in patients with ankylosing spondylitis.
The purpose of this study is to assess efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics and immunogenicity of subcutaneous SCT650C in patients with Axial Spondyloarthritis
This is a phase IV, multicentre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study designed to compare the efficacy and safety of tofacitinib versus placebo (on a background of an NSAID) over 16 weeks of treatment and 4 weeks of safety follow-up in subjects with early active axSpA and inadequate response to at least one NSAID, with objective signs of inflammation.
