Active clinical trials for "Arthritis"

This is a Phase 1b, randomized, multi-dose, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation, multi-center study of AMP-110 in adult subjects with rheumatoid arthritis.

The objective of this study was to verify the efficacy of ASP015K versus placebo administrated in combination with methotrexate (MTX) over placebo in terms of efficacy in participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who had an inadequate response to MTX

Pain after a knee replacement can impair recovery and use of the new knee. Having an injection to numb the femoral nerve is known to give good pain relief after the operation but may lead to slower mobilisation as it also prevents the patient from moving the knee. Recent studies have shown that infiltration of local anaesthetic (LIA) within the new knee joint may also give good pain relief. The null hypothesis is that there is no difference in primary or secondary outcome measures between femoral nerve block and LIA, as anaesthetic techniques for knee replacement.

Primary Objective: -To demonstrate that sarilumab added to methotrexate (MTX) reduce signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in Japanese RA participants with an inadequate response to MTX. Secondary Objective: -To assess the safety of sarilumab added to MTX in Japanese RA participants with an inadequate response to MTX.

The primary purpose of the this study is to evaluate the safety of TissueGene-C, a gene therapy product that uses allogenic human chondrocytes expressing Transforming Growth Factor(TGF)-β1 by assessing the inflammation at the injection site, the incidence and severity of the adverse events, the physical examination findings, and the laboratory test results after the intra-articular injection of TissueGene-C. And Secondary purpose is to evaluate the biological efficacy (knee pain, range of motion, functional tests, and MRI) of TissueGene-C and the distribution of TissueGene-C outside the injection site.

The objective of this extension protocol is to collect safety data (serious and non-serious adverse events) and to provide continuous canakinumab to patients in France who completed study CACZ885G2301E1(NCT00891046), CACZ885G2306 (NCT02296424) or CACZ885N2301 (NCT02059291) until a decision regarding reimbursement in France is effective for canakinumab (Ilaris®) in these indications.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of ASP015K in subjects with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) who have completed a preceding Phase 2 ASP015K RA study.

The core and extension studies assessed the safety and efficacy of secukinumab when added to a background therapy in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis who are intolerant to or have had an inadequate response to anti-TNF-α agents. Patients received either secukinumab, placebo or abatacept (active comparator). The core study was completed. However, the extension study was prematurely terminated after the primary endpoint analysis of the core study at week 24 had demonstrated numerically higher efficacy for the active comparator abatacept compared to secukinumab.

The principal aim of this study is to fill a clear knowledge gap and provide guidance for rheumatologists and reassurance to the patient group on a management challenge faced daily in rheumatology practice. Specifically, it aims to provide robust evidence on the optimal management of patients with established RA that have failed an anti-TNF therapy (the first of the biological therapies to be introduced); in particular, the investigators wish to address whether the currently licensed but non NICE-approved treatment options, TNF-blocking drug or abatacept, are equivalent to the NICE-approved treatment, rituximab. If so, the intention is to broaden treatment options and target these specific therapies to disease sub-groups.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of autologous transplantation of Adipose Tissue derived Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in patient with degenerative arthritis.
