Active clinical trials for "Arthritis"

Osteoarthritis of the knee is one of the most common causes of disability among elderly. Arthritis rheumatoid is an autoimmune disease which causes multi articular arthritis, such as knee osteoarthritis. As the disease progresses the cartilage become frustrated, surrounding bone react to become thicker and inflammation occurs in subchondral bone seen in T2-weighted MRI as increase in signal density. Patients are treated initially by pain management. In patients who don't response to first line treatment invasive treatment like total knee replacement is done. The investigators designed this clinical study with the aim of evaluating therapeutic effects of intra-articular injection of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) in 60 patients with knee osteoarthritis.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of CNTO 136 (sirukumab) in participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are unresponsive to treatment with modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) or anti-TNF alpha agents.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of CNTO6785 in participants with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) despite methotrexate (MTX) therapy.

The purpose of this study is to implement a substudy in approximately 120 rheumatoid arthritis (RA) subjects to compare the steady-state serum trough concentration (Cminss), Cmax and area under the curve (AUC) during the dosing interval (TAU) of subcutaneous (SC) Abatacept injection of 125 mg via the autoinjector and via the BD Hypak™ Physiolis prefilled syringe.

This open-label, multicenter study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and safety of subcutaneously administered tocilizumab in participants with Systemic Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (sJIA). Participants with body weight less than (<) 30 kilograms (kg) will receive subcutaneous (SC) tocilizumab dose every 2 weeks (Q2W) and participants with body weight greater than or equal to (>=) 30 kg will receive weekly (QW), for 52 weeks. Tocilizumab was administered every 10 days until pre-planned interim analysis was performed and changed to Q2W in participants with body weight <30 kg.

This multicenter, open-label, single arm, long-term extension study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) in participants with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis who have completed the 97-week WA22762 or the 96-week NA25220 core study. Participants will receive RoActemra/Actemra 162 milligram (mg) subcutaneously weekly (for participants entering from WA22762) or every two weeks (for participants entering from NA25220) for 96 weeks, with telephone call follow-up visits at Weeks 100 and 104.

The Investigation will be conducted as a single-submission, multi-center study with approval from and in compliance of the Western Institutional Review Board (WIRB). The overall objective of this Investigation is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the Robotic Arm Interactive Orthopedic System (RIO) Total Knee Arthroplasty Application. Specifically, the study objectives are classified as follows: Primary Objective: Surgeon assessment of standardized TKA complications both intra-operatively and at short term follow up. Secondary Objective: Radiographic assessment of post-operative limb alignment. Supporting Objective: Patient assessment of post-operative function and satisfaction.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether aminopterin is effective in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

This long-term, open-label extension study will evaluate the safety of RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) in patients with polyarticular-course juvenile idiopathic arthritis who completed the WA19977 core study. Patients aged 9-18 years with at least JIA ACR30 clinical response to RoActemra/Actemra in the core study will be eligible to receive RoActemra/Actemra 8 mg/kg intravenously every 4 weeks. Anticipated time on study treatment is 104 weeks.

Primary Objective: To assess, in the same study, the safety of sarilumab and tocilizumab in participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who were inadequate responders to or intolerant of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) antagonists.
