Active clinical trials for "Arthritis"

This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenous HS628 in combination with MTX versus Actemra in combination with MTX, in participants with moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who have inadequate response to current MTX therapy. The study comprises a 24-week treatment phase, followed by a 4-week safety observation period.

Usage including cases followed up with rheumatism diagnosis and treatment in Istanbul University-Cerrahpasa Medical Faculty Pediatric Rheumatology Clinic, Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Unit. The study included 50 patients with a spinal x-ray scoliosis problem, aged 8-16 years, who were diagnosed with rheumatism at least 6 months ago, whose medical treatment was stable, Risser 0-4 and exercise indication (Cobb = 10-45ͦ). Patients with additional neurological diagnosis against rheumatism, who have received any previous treatment for a spine problem, who have a mental state and who do not have the consent of their family will not be included. The cases will be divided into 2 groups by method. In the first group (n = 25), structured 3-dimensional scoliosis exercises are taught in the clinic, and the second group (n = 25) is taught conventional physiotherapy applications (posture-core applications-bennet protocols) in the clinic, and both groups are followed by the WTE method.

This is a Phase 2, multicenter, randomized, double blind, double dummy, placebo and active-controlled, parallel group study to assess the efficacy and safety of PF 06650833 at Week 12 in subjects with moderate-severe, active, RA who have had an inadequate response to MTX. PF-06650833 or matching placebo tablets will be administered orally QD under fasting conditions, and tofacitinib or matching tofacitinib placebo tablets will be administered orally BID for 12 weeks in a blinded fashion.

This is an open label study to assess the improvement in the Disease Activity Score for 28-joint counts (DAS28) with ticagrelor given at 90 mg twice daily in patients with RA who have active disease despite MTX therapy (as defined by the inclusion/exclusion criteria). There will also be a cross sectional analysis of baseline platelet activity in subjects with rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. Subjects in the OA cohort will not receive any study medication, and will only have one study visit. Patients will receive 90 mg ticagrelor orally bid. The patients will receive drug for 30-days. Methotrexate dose will remain stable throughout the study duration.

This is an 8 week study to assess the efficacy and safety profile of PF-06651600 in seropositive subjects with rheumatoid arthritis with an inadequate response to methotrexate (up to approximately 50% of subjects may also have had an inadequate response to 1 anti-TNF biologic).

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of guselkumab treatment in participants with active Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) by assessing the reduction in signs and symptoms of PsA.

Over 100 million Americans report chronic pain. Veterans are disproportionately affected for multiple reasons, including injuries and post-traumatic stress disorder. Treatment for chronic pain is a priority research area for the VA. One of the most common causes of chronic pain is osteoarthritis (OA). OA is attributable to "wear and tear," but reasons for pain are complex. Inflammatory arthritis (IA) includes multiple severe diseases that affect 2-3% of persons and require treatment with immune-suppressive drugs to prevent joint destruction. Pain often persists despite effective treatment. Pain in arthritis results from multiple sources: inflammation, perception of pain in the joint, and interpretation of pain by the brain. Unfortunately, management of pain in arthritis remains a challenge. Low dose naltrexone is a widely used but unproven "alternative" approach to chronic pain. It is attractive for study because it is safe and is proposed to work on all three pathways that contribute to pain. A small but high-quality clinical trial is needed to determine whether to invest in definitive studies.

This is a Phase I/III Study to Evaluate Efficacy, Pharmacokinetics and Safety between CT-P13 SC and CT-P13 IV in Patients with Active Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA).

A study to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of GDC-0853 in participants with moderate to severe active Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) who have completed 12 weeks of study treatment in Study GA29350. Eligible participants from Study GA29350 who elect to participate will receive treatment with GDC-0853 twice daily (BID) in an open-label fashion for 52 weeks, followed by a safety follow-up period of 8 weeks.

The purpose of this investigation is to determine the effects and ease of using hyperbaric oxygen therapy HBO2 for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis joint pain and prevention of disease progression. In this study it is our intention to not only evaluate effects and ease of treatment but time, cost, possible adverse events and effect size in an attempt to predict an appropriate sample size and improve on the study design prior to a more extensive study.
