Active clinical trials for "Arthritis"

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 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.

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.

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

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 study will assess at Week 16 the efficacy and safety of AIN457 at different doses in patients with active RA despite stable MTX therapy. Treatment will continue up to Week 48 with a safety follow-up at Week 60 to assess the long term efficacy and safety of AIN457 treatment in combination with MTX in RA.

The aim of this study is to determine whether rabeprazole is superior to placebo in preventing dyspepsia and gastroduodenal injury in subjects with osteoarthritis (OA) and/or rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and/or bone pain.

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 safety and efficacy of MabThera in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis who have had an inadequate response or were intolerant to treatment with methotrexate. Eligible patients will receive MabThera (1000mg by intravenous infusion) on days 1 and 15, and background methotrexate (oral or subcutaneous dose of 10-25mg weekly). After the initial study period of 24 weeks, eligible patients may receive up to 3 re-treatments with MabThera. The anticipated time on study treatment is 1-2 years, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of golimumab (CNTO 148) in subjects who have active rheumatoid arthritis and have been treated previously with at least 1 dose of a biologic anti-TNFa agent (etanercept, adalimumab or infliximab).
