Active clinical trials for "Arthritis"

Due to the Covid-19 worldwide outbreak, fragile patients with immune diseases, notably rheumatoid arthritis (RA), have to be even more specifically and carefully followed-up. However, it has been shown that false postive serological results often occured while detecting antibodies directed against SARS-CoV-2 in patients with positive rheumatodoid factor (RF). The investigators propose here to investigated this issue. Therefore, the investigators will test three different immunoassays on this specific population. The investigators aim to establish these assays specificity and the levels of RF for which there is a risk of anti-SARS-CoV-2 false positivity and thus ensure a better follow-up of RA patients. The RF isotype will be analysed to determine whether there is a correlation and the impact of the presence of anti-CCP (citrullinated cyclic antipeptide antibodies) will be studied and assessed.

This study is to investigate and describe the treatment patterns and effect of tofacitinib indicators for patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) assessing real world patient data entered in the Corrona RA Registry on or after November 2012

This is a 24-month, prospective, non-interventional, multi-center study with primary aim to identify baseline characteristics of patients that predict response at 6 months of treatment. The study also aims to describe the treatment patterns of RA patients prescribed tofacitinib in a real-world setting and assess the effect of treatment on patient quality of life and physical function. Finally the study will assess the use of healthcare resources and costs in patients with RA treated with tofacitinib in Greece. The planned recruitment period is 12 months. The planned observation period of each patient is 12 months. In this time period up to 4 visits will be documented. The study will be reviewed and approved by the Central Regulatory Committee for NIS and IRB Board of each participating site

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.

This observational study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of tocilizumab in participants with moderate to severe RA who have an inadequate response to current non-biologic DMARD and/or anti-TNF therapy. Data will be collected from each participant during tocilizumab therapy and on follow-up for a total of 12 months.

This open-label, retrospective, observational study will evaluate the compliance to RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) therapy in patients with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis. Six months data will be collected from patients records.

It can be assumed that there is a link between what the patient feels and thinks about his medication and objective measures of disease activity and safety.

The two objectives of this trial are :1 To evaluate the impact of a visit with a nurse checking the preventive modalities and/or the presence of comorbidities such as infections ( e.g. vaccinations), cardiovascular-diseases (e.g. Indication to statin, antiaggregant,anti-hypertensive treatment…), cancers (e.g.mammography,…), osteoporosis (e.g. bone densitometry,..) in patients suffering from Rheumatoid Arthritis 2 To evaluate the impact of an educational program aimed at permitting rheumatoid arthritis patients to auto-evaluate their disease activity by collecting the Disease Activity Score (DAS28-ESR).

Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) is a comorbidity that affects a significant proportion of participants with moderate or severe psoriasis. The purpose of this study was to describe the profile of patients with moderate or severe plaque psoriasis (Ps) in Colombia and to evaluate adalimumab efficacy and safety profile.

The purpose of this study was to collect data on the incidence of adverse drug reactions, infections and malignant tumors, as well as factors that might affect the safety and effectiveness of Humira® (adalimumab; 40mg/0.8 mL) in Japanese participants who received the drug for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.
