Active clinical trials for "Arthritis"

The primary objective of the study was to characterize the effects of a single dose of denosumab on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of etanercept in postmenopausal women with low bone mineral density (BMD) and rheumatoid arthritis based on area under the serum concentration-time curve (AUC) and maximum observed serum concentration (Cmax).

To evaluate the changes in joint inflammation produced by Cimzia over 12 week Treatment period measured by Power/Color Doppler and Gray scale Ultrasound.

This randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study will compare the safety and efficacy of tapering methotrexate (MTX) versus maintaining MTX dosage in patients with severe active rheumatoid arthritis and an inadequate response to disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) initiated on treatment with tocilizumab. Participants will receive tocilizumab 8 mg/kg intravenously every 4 weeks and MTX orally weekly throughout the study. At Week 24, participants achieving a good/moderate EULAR response will be randomized receiving the MTX Tapering arm or MTX Maintenance arm. Up to Week 56 participants will receive either tapering or stable dose MTX in combination with tocilizumab. From Week 56 to Week 72 participants will receive tocilizumab monotherapy.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long term safety and tolerability of fostamatinib in patients in Asia with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

This trial is conducted in Europe, North America and South America. The aim of this trial is to investigate the clinical efficacy of NNC0109-0012, a human monoclonal antibody, compared to placebo when administered as weekly s.c. (subcutaneous, under the skin) injections to patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are inadequate responders to anti-TNFa biologics and are on a stable background of methotrexate (MTX) therapy.

The primary objectives of this trial are (1) To show PK (Pharmacokinetic) similarity of BI 695500 to rituximab. (2)To establish statistical equivalence of efficacy of BI 695500 and rituximab, in patients with moderately to severely active RA (Rheumatoid Arthritis), based on the change in Disease Activity Score 28 (DAS28) score measured at 24 weeks compared to Baseline and the American College of Rheumatology 20% (ACR20) response rate at Week 24.

The purpose of this study is to compare the incidence rates of targeted infections, malignancies and mortality among patients with rheumatoid arthritis who are treated with abatacept and those who are treated with other anti-rheumatic medications.

biological DMARDs may be stopped in Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) patients treated with a combination of synthetic DMARD plus bDMARDs which are in persistent clinical remission. The research question of this study is, whether musculoskeletal sonography is a useful biomarker predicting a disease flare after cessation of bDMARD therapy.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of MK-8457 + Methotrexate (MTX) in participants with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) despite MTX therapy. The primary hypothesis is that at least 1 dose of MK-8457 + MTX will be superior to placebo + MTX as measured by the percentage of participants who achieve American College of Rheumatology 20 (ACR 20) response after 12 weeks of treatment.

This study will compare an experimental drug called Z102 (combination of prednisolone and dipyridamole, against prednisone 5mg and prednisone 7.5mg in patients with moderate to severe Rheumatoid Arthritis for a period of 52 weeks.
