Filter by:This is a multi-center, prospective, randomized controlled non-inferior clinical study. A total of 120 subjects with non-infectious intermediate, posterior, or panuveitis were enrolled in Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center and three other centers. They were randomly assigned to the experimental group and the control group according to ( 1 : 1 ). We hypothesized that adalimumab biosimilars combined with immunosuppressive agents in the treatment of non-infectious uveitis is not inferior to glucocorticoids combined with immunosuppressive agents, and there are no additional adverse events and safety issues.
FOCUS is the first prospective randomized study comparing standard of care (mycophenolate mofetil) to adalimumab in recently active non infectious uveitis (NIU) with steroid dependency. There is no firm evidence or randomized trials that compared classical immunosuppressive compounds to biological agents; or identified the best treatment in this condition. The burden of NIU has been reduced with the use of immunosuppressive agents and biologics, raising the question of which of these compounds should be preferentially used in recently active NIU with steroid dependency.
The first-line etiological workup is currently poorly codified, and some patients undergo sequential investigations. However, the reason which lead the clinician to perform subsequent exams, and the relevance of such exams, remain to be determined. The main objective of the study was to assess the relevance of a second-line workup of patients with uveitis.
This study seeks to describe, for children undergoing uveitis surveillance following a new diagnosis of juvenile idiopathic arthritis, the feasibility metrics of undertaking a randomised comparative study of routine slit lamp examination (SLE) versus imaging based (anterior segment optical coherence tomography, OCT) surveillance in order to inform the development of a larger multi-centre trial.
The Chinese Spondyloarthritis Inception cohort (CESPIC) was started 2000 as a prospective, longitudinal, multicentre, nationwide study in China on patients with early SpA including ankylosing spondylitis (AS, also known as radiographic axial spondyloarthritis) and non-radiographic axial SpA. The objectives of CESPIC are to learn about the course of SpA during the very early stage of the disease, to appropriately assess the outcome including radiographic progression of patients after several years of follow-up, to identify outcome predictors, to assess quality of life, function, and costs (direct and indirect costs). CESPIC has been recently expanded to recruit patients with other forms of SpA / conditions associated with SpA: reactive arthritis, acute anterior uveitis, Crohn's disease as well as with psoriasis / axial psoriatic arthritis.
prospective, cohort, longitudinal, multicenter, non-randomized study of patients with non-infectious posterior segment uveitis or panuveitis, with a group of control patients (scheduled for cataract or vitreoretinal surgery) and constitution of biological collection.
UVB, is the first randomized prospective, head to head study, comparing Adalimumab to Tocilizumab in sight threatening uveitis of Behçet's Disease (BD). Anti-TNFα has been used for BD uveitis for 15 years. The incidence of blindness in BD has been dramatically reduced in the recent years with the use of biologics. There is no firm evidence or randomized controlled trials directly addressing the best induction therapy in severe BD uveitis. BD uveitis is considered as the most devastating inflammatory ocular disease. Risk of visual loss reaches 25% at 5 years and 80% of patients have a bilateral involvement. Contrasting with immunosuppressors or interferon-alpha, biotherapies act rapidly and are highly effective in steroid's sparing thus preventing occurrence of cataract and/or glaucoma. However, anti-TNFα failed to demonstrate sustainable complete remission over 50 % of severe sight threatening uveitis. There is little published information on use of biologics other than anti-TNFα for severe BD uveitis. Tocilizumab has been used with success in severe and/or resistant cases and is one of the most promising biologics in BD. IL-6 expression correlates with BD activity and other immunological data provide a strong rationale for targeting BD with tocilizumab. Despite a strong rationale, these compounds are not yet approved in BD, which guarantees the innovative nature of this study that aims selecting or dropping any arm when evidence of efficacy already exists. The objective of the study is to assess the benefit of tocilizumab comparatively to that of adalimumab in sight-threatening Behçet's disease uveitis at week 16
The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of Baricitinib, a JAK1 and 2 inhibitor, in the management of non-infectious non-anterior uveitis refractory to at least one line of biotherapy (anti-TNF alpha, tocilizumab) after 6 months of treatment
Retrospective study at the Brest universitary hospital to evaluate the efficacy of methotrexate (MTX) and azathioprine (AZA) in background treatment of unidentified non anterior uveitis.
- Reviewing the characteristics of patients with uveitis caused by Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada Syndrome treated at Assiut University Hospital at the Department of Ophthalmology and Department of Rheumatology, Physical Medicine, and Rehabilitation including the ocular features in terms of uveitis location, type and complications and systemic features of those subjects who showed an inadequate response to conventional immunomodulatory drugs. - Assess the results of treatment with biologic drugs, including rates of failure and adverse events. This will help uveitis specialists to reach a conclusion about the best treatment protocols for Uveitis in Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada Syndrome in our population in terms of safety, efficacy, and cost-effectiveness.
