Active clinical trials for "Arthritis, Psoriatic"

The study objective is aimed to describe all country, site, investigator and patient variables that lead to treatment persistence for at least 12 months among patients with rheumatologic and intestinal chronic inflammatory diseases who were switched to FK adalimumab, in order to develop a model to predict persistence at 12 months.

Chronic inflammatory rheumatism (CIR) is a group of inflammatory diseases that affect the joints and spine and are related to an abnormal immune response. CIR includes many different forms of arthritis that manifest as painful and swollen joints, stiffness, especially in the morning and persisting even after exercise, and limited joint mobility. CIR can also affect bones, cartilage, ligaments, tendons and muscles. Some may affect other organs. These symptoms can lead to a reduced quality of life, limited physical activity and progressive structural and functional deterioration of the joints. Current treatment for CIR is aimed at reducing inflammation and relieving pain. Anti-inflammatory medications such as corticosteroids and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs can be used to relieve pain and inflammation. Biotherapies can also be used to modify the progression of the disease. On the other hand, regular exercise can help strengthen the muscles that support the affected joints and improve mobility. Physical therapies, such as physical and occupational therapy, can also help improve mobility and relieve pain. Although there is no definitive cure for CIR early and appropriate treatment can help reduce symptoms and improve quality of life, as well as avoid the risk of developing complications such as lung, cardiovascular, kidney, ophthalmic, liver and other diseases. It is in this context, in order to better understand CIR to improve the global management of patients, and to analyze the evolution of CIR over time in relation to the different treatments proposed, that the interest in creating a database of patients with CIR arises.

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.

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate equivalence of the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of MSB11022 administered by either an auto-injector (AI) or a pre-filled syringe (PFS) as single subcutaneous (s.c.) injection of 40 mg.

The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of Functional training versus resistance training in improving functional capacity, muscle strength, quality of life and disease activity in patients with PSA.

This study assess the genomics profiles in synovial biopsies obtained prior to, and 24 weeks after an immunomodulator agent (Apremilast) in patients with active psoriatic arthritis who are naive to treatment with a conventional synthetic DMARDs (such as methotrexate).

Randomized controlled trial to assess the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of an intervention combining patient initiated care and telemonitoring through the online eHealth platform SpA-Net versus standard care for patients with spondyloarthritis.

The purpose of the study is to assess systemic certolizumab pegol (CZP) exposure, the formation of anti-CZP antibodies and safety of CZP across the course of pregnancy in study participants with chronic inflammatory diseases.

The main purpose of this study is to validate the positive effect of "Omnibiotic Stress Repair" on patients with active psoriatic Arthritis.

The investigators propose an open label pragmatic clinical and laboratory study designed to investigate, in detail, the clinical and molecular effects of Interleukin 17 (IL-17) and inhibition of IL-17 with secukinumab, on neutrophil function in vitro and ex vivo. As secondary, exploratory objectives, the investigators will utilise the fact that secukinumab is to be administering to 20 patients with Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) and investigate whether there is any relationship between vitamin D status and response to secukinumab, with respect to efficacy and adverse events. The results of this secondary exploratory analysis will inform the design of a larger, definitive study.
