Active clinical trials for "Arthritis"

This study will test if CP-690,550 is safe and effective in rheumatoid arthritis patients taking methotrexate who have an inadequate response to tumor necrosis factor inhibitor treatment.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of ALD518 in three different doses in patients who have not had an adequate response to methotrexate.

This is a Phase I multicenter study that will be conducted in the United States and Europe.

This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (the effect of the body on the investigated drug) and signs of clinical efficacy of increasing single doses or four repeated doses of NNC 0142-0002 in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

The purpose of this study is: To ascertain whether the quantitative assessment of enhancing synovial volume and perfusion indices on serial Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) examination are useful indicators of responsiveness to treatment in early Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) using biologic therapy and Methotrexate (MTX) compared with Methotrexate(MTX) alone. To assess the cost-effectiveness of Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) blockers compared with Methotrexate(MTX) monotherapy for Rheumatoid Arthritis(RA).

This was a double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-arm, multicentre, prospective dose-finding trial of the safety and efficacy of atacicept in subjects with active rheumatoid arthritis who had failed a three month therapeutic trial with a tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFa) antagonist due to lack of efficacy.

This study recruits individuals with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and low vitamin D concentrations. Subjects are dosed with vitamin D or placebo for one year. Primary outcome is change in bone turnover markers, additionally, bone mineral density and parameters of RA status are evaluated throughout the study.

The purpose of the study is to determine whether subcutaneous abatacept administered to patients with rheumatoid arthritis is associated with increased immunogenicity or increased safety events upon withdrawal and reintroduction.

Systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (SJIA) is a type of arthritis that typically occurs before 16 years of age. SJIA usually involves heat, pain, swelling, and stiffness in the body's joints. It can also involve fever, rash, anemia, and inflammation in various parts of the body. Rilonacept is a drug that can reduce inflammation. The purpose of this study is to determine whether a rilonacept drug regimen initiated early is more effective than a similar rilonacept drug regimen initiated 4 weeks later when treating children and young adults with SJIA.

The purpose of this project is to determine if an evidence-based, community-delivered physical activity program, EnhanceFitness, yields benefits for participants with arthritis. The 3-year project will: 1) conduct a meta-analysis of community-based exercise programs for adults, 2) implement and evaluate the EnhanceFitness program in West Virginia using a randomized, controlled (wait list) design, and 3) disseminate the results to community and public health partners. It is anticipated that participation in the EnhanceFitness program will result in reduced pain, improved physical function and physical activity levels for adults with arthritis.
