Low Dose Rituximab as a First Line Biologic Therapy for the Treatment of DMARD Resistant Patients...
DMARD Resistant Rheumatoid ArthritisIn this project the investigators decide to evaluate the efficacy and safety of half dose mabthera (it means 500 mg infusion two weeks apart) in conventional drug resistant cases of rheumatoid arthritis. The investigators choose this drug because the use of anti-TNF drugs limited in the investigators refractory patients as the first line drugs because of its cost.
ALX-0061 Phase I Bioavailability Study in Healthy Volunteers
Rheumatoid ArthritisThe overall aims of the study are: To assess the bioavailability of single doses of ALX-0061, administered s.c. at three dose levels, using 2 corresponding single i.v. dose levels as reference. To provide additional information on pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of ALX-0061. To further determine the safety and tolerability of ALX-0061. To further evaluate the systemic (serum) immunogenicity of ALX-0061.
Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Single Dose CFZ533 in Rheumatoid...
Rheumatoid ArthritisThis is a first-in-human study to investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of single intravenous and subcutaneous doses of CFZ533 in healthy subjects and intravenous doses in rheumatoid arthritis patients.
A Study to Investigate the Safety and Efficacy of ABT-122 Given With Methotrexate in Subjects With...
Rheumatoid ArthritisThis study is a Phase 2 randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel-group study designed to assess the safety, tolerability, efficacy, pharmacokinetics and immunogenicity of multiple doses of ABT 122 in subjects with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are inadequately responding to methotrexate (MTX) treatment.
Study to Assess Safety and Efficacy of Anti-Interleukin 6-receptor (IL6R) Nanobody in Rheumatoid...
Rheumatoid ArthritisThe purpose of this study is to determine whether the ALX-0061, a Nanobody targeting the receptor for interleukin 6 (IL6R), is safe and effective after single or multiple administrations to patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Patients will receive different single or multiple doses of either placebo or ALX-0061.

Rheumatoid ArthritisThe purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of golimumab in Chinese patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
Addition of Rituximab to Leflunomide in Patients With Active Rheumatoid Arthritis
Rheumatoid ArthritisCombination of rituximab (RTX) with several different chemotherapeutic regimes has proven synergistic effects in patients with either lymphoma or autoimmune diseases. First data of uncontrolled trials with the combination of RTX and leflunomide (LEF) are available.
Efficacy and Safety of CDP6038 in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis With an Unsuccessful Response...
Rheumatoid ArthritisThe purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of CDP6038 treatment in adult subjects with active rheumatoid arthritis who have had an inadequate response to anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) therapy.
A Clinical Study of a Natural Remedy for Rheumatoid Arthritis vs. Commonly Used Conventional Medications...
Rheumatoid ArthritisThe purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a combined therapy for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The combined therapy contained paeoniflorin (Brand name: Pafulin), which has anti-inflammation properties, and Cervus and Cucumis polypeptide injection (Brand name: Songmeile), which has bone healing, pain relieving, and anti-inflammation properties. The hypothesis is that this remedy, which has long been used by the world's largest RA community, is effective and safe when tested by modern clinical standards and criteria.
A Two-Part, 12-Week Study of Etoricoxib as a Treatment for Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) (MK-0663-107)...
ArthritisRheumatoidThis is a 2-part (6 weeks duration for each part), randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in participants with rheumatoid arthritis. The hypothesis is that etoricoxib (60 mg and 90 mg) administration will demonstrate superior efficacy compared to placebo after 6 weeks of treatment, as measured by the greater mean improvement from baseline in the Disease Activity Score C-Reactive Protein (DAS-28 CRP), and by the greater mean improvement in Patient Global Assessment of Pain (PGAP) from baseline over 6 weeks of treatment. Additionally, the added benefit of increasing the dose of etoricoxib from 60 mg to 90 mg will be assessed in the second part of the study.
