Active clinical trials for "Spondylitis, Ankylosing"

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.

The purpose of this non-interventional, multicenter, post-marketing observational study (PMOS) was to assess rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), ankylosing spondylitis (AS), plaque psoriasis (PS), Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) patients' adherence attitudes (beliefs) to maintenance therapy with adalimumab monotherapy or combination therapy with methotrexate (in participants with RA) and to investigate whether there were correlations between such beliefs and adherence to maintenance treatment.

The primary objectives of this study are to assess whether there is transfer of Certolizumab Pegol (CZP) into breast milk of lactating mothers who are receiving an established dosing regimen of CZP by evaluating the concentration of CZP in mature breast milk, and to calculate the daily infant dose of maternal CZP.

Treatment with tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors, especially adalimumab, demonstrated an improvement in work productivity in participants with rheumatic diseases: rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), and ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Limited data was available for the effect of adalimumab treatment on sleep in all three diseases (RA, PsA, and AS) and no data was available for the effect of adalimumab treatment on work productivity in PsA. This long term Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQL) observational study was conducted to evaluate the effect of treatment with adalimumab on work productivity and sleep disturbance in Greek participants with moderate to severe rheumatic diseases (RA, PsA, and AS).

This postmarketing study was conducted to describe prescribing patterns for etoricoxib (ARCOXIA®) in General Practice and describe the incidence of selected adverse events recorded in the United Kingdom (UK) Medicines and Health Care Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) General Practice Research Database (GPRD).

We aim to translate these findings into patients with rheumatoid arthritis and other conditions treated with anti-TNF (anti-tumor necrosis factor) therapy, such as psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis. Patients from rheumatology clinics within NHS (National Health Service) trusts will be recruited. We will correlate disease activity assessed by clinical parameters, ultrasonography, and questionnaires with biomarkers in the blood and target tissues, such as synovium and skin.

The investigators will recruit active ankylosing spondylitis patients for injection treatment of Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells (a prospective, open-label, masculine medicine controlled(NSAIDs), clinical trial), and collect their Peripheral Blood Lymphocyte (PBMCs) and sera before and after the treatment of 24 weeks to test the gene expression profiles and study related pathogenesis of AS

The aim of this project is to quantify global DNA methylation in patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis or Axial Spondyloarthritis as compared with control subjects.

The aim of this study is to investigate prevalence of neuropathic spinal pain in AS patients and it's impact on sleep quality. Moreover effects of neuropathic pain on quality of life and fatigue will be assessed.

This is a study to assess the use of golimumab (Simponi®) in participants with rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis. The study objective is to evaluate the clinical safety of golimumab (Simponi®) under real-life, clinical practice conditions as assessed by the incidence and type of (serious) adverse events and changes in clinical status of participants as assessed by clinical parameters.
