Active clinical trials for "Arthritis"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate 1 year extension study of the efficacy and the safety during treatment tocilizumab in patients completing treatment CWP-TCZ301 study with moderate to severe active RA and an inadequate response to current DMARD.

The primary objective is to compare the safety and efficacy of multiple doses of ABT-494 versus placebo in moderately to severely active RA subjects on stable background MTX therapy with inadequate response or intolerance to anti-TNF biologic therapy.

This study was an extension to study MA21573 [NCT00750880], which was an open label single arm study to investigate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of tocilizumab monotherapy, or combination therapy with non-biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDS), in patients with moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis. Patients who completed the 24 week core study, and had at least a moderate European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) response, were eligible to enter this long-term extension study, and received tocilizumab 8 mg/kg intravenous (iv) every 4 weeks. The anticipated time on study treatment was 1-2 years, and the target sample size was > 500 individuals.

This single arm study will assess the effect of tocilizumab + DMARDs (Disease Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs)on improvement of anemia and fatigue in patients with moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis. Eligible patients who have had an inadequate response to DMARDs will receive tocilizumab 8mg/kg iv every 4 weeks in combination with standard DMARDs, for 6 months. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether tranilast at two different dosages compared to placebo is effective in patients with active RA when added to continuing methotrexate (MTX) therapy.

This study will assess the onset and maintenance of effect of tocilizumab on relief in patients with active moderate or severe rheumatoid arthritis who have had an inadequate response to DMARDs or anti-TNF. For the first, double-blind, part of the study patients will be randomized to receive an iv infusion of either 8mg/kg tocilizumab or placebo. After 4 weeks this will be followed by 11 months treatment with tocilizumab 8mg/kg iv infusion every 4 weeks. Methotrexate or DMARD therapy will be continued throughout study treatment. Target sample size is >100.

The purpose of this study is to: determine the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 20 response rate at Day 85 in subjects with active rheumatoid arthritis(RA) administered MDX 1100 with methotrexate (MTX); and determine the tolerability and safety of multiple doses of MDX-1100 in combination with MTX in subjects with active RA.

This primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic properties of multiple ascending doses of ATN-103 administered subcutaneously (below the skin) to Japanese subjects with active rheumatoid arthritis and on a stable background of methotrexate. Some subjects will receive ATN-103 while other subjects will receive a placebo.

The primary objectives of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of multiple doses of the mavrilimumab (CAM-3001) administered subcutaneously in subjects with moderately active Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA).

This 3-part study evaluated the efficacy and safety of tocilizumab in patients with active polyarticular-course juvenile idiopathic arthritis who have an inadequate response to, or were intolerant of methotrexate. In Part I of the study, all patients received intravenous (iv) infusions of tocilizumab (8 mg/kg for patients ≥ 30kg, 8 mg/kg or 10 mg/kg for patients < 30kg) every 4 weeks for 16 weeks. In Part II of the study, patients with an adequate response in Part I were randomized to receive either tocilizumab at the same dose as in Part I or placebo every 4 weeks for up to 24 weeks. In Part III of the study, patients received tocilizumab at the same dose as in Part I every 4 weeks for up to another 64 weeks. Standard of care therapy with or without non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID), corticosteroids, or methotrexate was continued throughout the study.
