Active clinical trials for "Arthritis"

The primary objectives are to determine the relationship between blood levels of CDP6038 and suppression of C-reactive Protein (CRP) following single doses given as intravenous (IV) infusion or subcutaneous (SC) injection to Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) patients. The safety of CDP6038 will also be evaluated.

To explore the effect of CP-690,550 on blood and synovial markers in subjects with rheumatoid arthritis. To evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of CP-690,550.

The purpose of study is to explore the effect of CP-690,550 (tasocitinib) on cholesterol metabolism in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

The purpose of this study is to investigate the drug interaction between fostamatinib and pioglitazone by comparing the safety, tolerability and plasma concentration of pioglitazone when administered alone and with fostamatinib in healthy subjects.

This is an assessment of Pharmacokinetics of a single oral dose of VIMOVO in healthy adult volunteers.

Inflammatory arthritis (IA) is a major cause of long-term disability. Peer support may be a solution to the common problem of delayed treatment. Early peer support may result in improved use of therapy, higher self-efficacy, reduced anxiety, and improved coping in the first two years post-diagnosis. The whole intervention study comprises of two parts: The first part involves the development and testing of a peer mentor training initiative, which is called "Peer to Peer Mentoring: Facilitating Individuals with Early Inflammatory Arthritis to Manage their Arthritis - Peer Mentor Training". The second part, which is the focus of this study, involves the delivery of a one-on-one peer support intervention from a trained peer mentor to an individual newly diagnosed with EIA. The feasibility and acceptability of the program will be determined, as well as the health outcomes following the participation of the program.

The purpose of this study is to explore the effect of patient education (PE) in patients with arthritis. PE has become a task that is dictated by law in Norway, and is increasingly used as an element in the treatment of patients with chronic complaints. Our hypothesis is that - PE delivered as group education, followed by an individual nurse consultation increases the patients wellbeing an ability to cope with the disease.

The purpose of the present study is to examine the utility of probiotics as an adjunctive therapy (in addition to patients' pharmacotherapy) for the treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis. We hypothesize that specifically selected probiotics, Lactobacillus rhamnosus GR-1 and L. reuteri RC-14, can alleviate symptoms of RA and thereby increase the daily activity of these patients.

The purpose of the study is to determine whether treatment with a single 800mg dose of AZD9056, a medication which has been developed as a possible treatment for Rheumatoid Arthritis, has an effect on the function of the retina

The purpose of the Living Well with RA program is to perform a proof-of-concept study and evaluate the efficacy of an Internal Family Systems-based psychotherapeutic intervention improve Rheumatoid Arthritis subjects' disease activity, independence and other health outcomes. This study will also assess the efficacy of an IFS-based program in improving RA subjects' mental health symptoms. We hypothesize that the IFS model will improve RA subjects self-management of their disease and subsequently their health outcomes will improve as well as compared to a group focusing on arthritis education.
