Active clinical trials for "Arthritis"

This is a study to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of bimekizumab in subjects with psoriatic arthritis

Prospective study on the effect of partial wrist denervation (ie combined anterior and posterior interosseous neurectomy) on pain relief on functional outcome in patient with wrist osteoarthritis. The impact of psychological factors on postoperative outcome will be studied.

Primary Objective: To assess the effect of sarilumab in combination with conventional synthetic Disease-Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drug (csDMARD) and/or monotherapy on participant-reported impact of disease, using the rheumatoid arthritis impact of disease (RAID) questionnaire, in participants with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and inadequate response or intolerance to current csDMARD or tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors. Secondary Objectives: To assess the change of the RAID score from baseline (to Week 4, Week 12, and Week 24) in participants with moderately to severely active RA and inadequate response or intolerance to current csDMARD or TNF inhibitors, treated with sarilumab in combination with csDMARD and/or monotherapy. To assess the effect of sarilumab in combination with csDMARD and/or monotherapy on other participant-reported outcomes (global assessment of disease activity, disability, morning stiffness, fatigue, anxiety/depression, mood disorders, and physical activities) in participants with moderately to severely active RA and inadequate response or intolerance to current csDMARD or TNF inhibitors. To assess the efficacy of sarilumab in combination with csDMARD and/or monotherapy using disease activity score-28 for RA with erythrocyte sedimentation rate (DAS28-ESR) and clinical disease activity index in participants with moderately to severely active RA and inadequate response or intolerance to current csDMARD or TNF inhibitors. To assess the safety of sarilumab in combination with csDMARD and/or monotherapy in participants with moderately to severely active RA and inadequate response or intolerance to current csDMARD or TNF inhibitors.

Evaluating the safety and efficacy of a single injection of autologous adipose tissue for treatment of osteoarthritis of the knee.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of filgotinib on semen parameters in adult males with active rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, or non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis. Results of this study may be pooled with the results of a separate study being conducted in participants with inflammatory bowel disease (Protocol GS-US-418-4279; NCT03201445) with the same objective.

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and pharmacokinetics of PK101(fixed-dose combination of PK101-001 and PK101-002) with coadministration of the two separate drugs in healthy volunteers.

This is a 52 week Phase 2b study designed to evaluate the efficacy at 16 weeks and to evaluate the safety and efficacy up to 1 year in subjects with active psoriatic arthritis.

The reason for this study is to see if the study drug baricitinib given orally is safe and effective in participants with JIA from 2 years to less than 18 years old.

Introduction: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune inflammatory joint disease that attacks peripheral joints and posterior tissues. More than half of patients with RA also have insomnia, which can modify pain, fatigue, quality of life and comorbidities. Traditional treatment of insomnia is often based on pharmacological drugs, however cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (CBT-i) have shown effect in insomnia with less side effects. It remains to determine whether CBT-i can be effective in patients with RA. The primary objective of this Sleep-RA trial is to assess the efficacy of CBT-i on sleep efficiency in patients with RA at week seven. Key secondary objectives are to estimate the clinical efficacy of CBT-i on wake after sleep onset, total sleep time, sleep onset latency, insomnia, sleep quality, fatigue, RA impact of disease and depressive symptoms at week 26. Methods & Analysis: Sleep-RA will be carried out as a randomised controlled trial (RCT) with randomised assignment and two-group parallel design. Patients with RA and insomnia are randomly allocated 1:1 to the intervention group or the control group. The intervention group will once a week for six weeks receive group-based CBT-i, a multi-component intervention of; sleep education, stimulus control, sleep restriction, cognitive therapy and relaxation. The control group will continue treatment as usual (insomnia will remain untreated). Follow-up assessments will be carried out seven and 26 weeks after baseline. The primary outcome is sleep efficiency measured with polysomnography at week seven. Key secondary outcomes are: wake after sleep onset, total sleep time, sleep onset latency, insomnia, sleep quality, fatigue, RA impact of disease and depressive symptoms from baseline to week 26. Polysomnography, actigraphy and Disease Activity Score 28-Joint Count C reactive protein will be assessed by medical staff blinded to group allocation. The project manager will assist the participants with questionnaires and conduct the intervention of CBT-i and will therefore not be blinded to group allocation. With a sample size of 60 patients the trial will have more than 85 % power to detect a mean difference between groups of 6 % points in the primary outcome of sleep efficiency measured at week seven and a reasonable statistical power to explore the clinical efficacy according to the eight key secondary outcome measures at week 26. Ethics and dissemination: Ethics approval has been obtained from The Committee on Health Research Ethics. We plan to submit a manuscript with the content of this protocol, and at least one scientific manuscript on the results of the primary and key secondary outcomes to a peer-reviewed journal. Results will be presented at conferences, community and consumer forums and hospital grand rounds.

This study is designed to assess the efficacy of apremilast, either in monotherapy or with stable methotrexate, on imaging outcomes in adults with active psoriatic arthritis with less than 5 years of disease duration (since diagnosis), and who are naïve to biologic therapies.
