Active clinical trials for "Arthritis"

This study will examine the course of patients with progressive rheumatoid arthritis associated interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD) treated with rituximab for safety and progression-free survival at 48 weeks. Safety of rituximab therapy in this disease will be assessed through patient history, physical exams and laboratory parameters. Twelve male/or female patient with RA-associated lung disease (6 of each nonspecific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP) and usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) histological subtype) will be enrolled The study involves 12 visits over 48 weeks Rituximab will be administered intravenously at Day 1 and Day 15 with repeat dosing at six months.

The purpose of this study is to determine if a combination of methotrexate and minocycline works better than methotrexate alone in early Rheumatoid Arthritis

This study will test the safety and tolerability (how the body reacts to the drug) of REGN88 and placebo (an inactive substance that contains no medicine) in patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis.

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) in patients with active systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA) who have an inadequate clinical response to NSAIDs and corticosteroids. In Part I of the study patients will be randomized 2:1 to receive iv infusions of RoActemra/Actemra (8mg/kg iv for patients >=30kg, or 12mg/kg for patients <30kg) or placebo, every 2 weeks. Stable NSAIDs and methotrexate will be continued throughout. After 12 weeks of double-blind treatment, all patients will have the option to enter Part II of the study to receive open-label treatment with RoActemra/Actemra for a further 92 weeks, followed by a 3-year continuation of the study in Part III in which, for patients who meet specific criteria, an optional alternative dosing schedule decreasing the study drug administration frequency will be introduced. Anticipated time on study treatment is up to 5 years.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of single doses of SBI-087 in subjects with rheumatoid arthritis.

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the drug BG00012 can improve the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in patients who are already taking methotrexate for RA, but who still suffer symptoms of RA. The purpose is also to ensure that the combination of methotrexate is safe for patients to take and that any side effects are acceptable to patients with RA.

This is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled adaptive, dose finding study to investigate the safety, tolerability, PK, PD and efficacy of single and repeat intravenous infusions of GSK315243A in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis. The study is divided into 2 parts: Part A is an adaptive, dose finding phase which will provide safety, tolerability, PK and PD on single intravenous infusions. Part B is a repeat dose phase which will provide safety, tolerability, PK, PD and efficacy following repeat intravenous infusions of a selected dose level.
