Active clinical trials for "Arthritis"

To evaluate efficacy, safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of AbGn-168H administered intravenously in patients with active psoriatic arthritis.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether sildenafil improves parameters of vascular function and blood markers involved in development of heart disease in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

To demonstrate that CT-P13 is equivalent to China-approved Remicade at Week 14, in terms of efficacy as determined by clinical response according to the change from baseline in disease activity.

This was a phase 2 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of elsubrutinib (ELS) and ABBV-599 (ELS plus upadacitinib [UPA]) vs placebo on a background of conventional synthetic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (csDMARDs) for the treatment of signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) at 12 weeks in biological disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (bDMARD)-inadequate response (bDMARD-IR) or bDMARD-intolerant participants with moderately to severely active RA and to define optimal dose for further development.

The Zimmer Hip Resurfacing System Post-Market Clinical Follow-up study will examine the safety and efficacy of this device in the young and/or active patient with advanced hip disease.

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of Biologics + Methotrexate with Biologics + Tacrolimus measured by the disease activity score 28 (DAS28) erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) scores. The study will also assess the safety of the combinations.

Title Safety and Efficacy of Tofacitinib vs Methotrexate in the treatment of Psoriatic Arthritis- An Open Label Randomized single center study Psoriatic arthritis is defined as an inflammatory arthropathy associated with skin psoriasis and usually negative for rheumatoid factor. Till date, many NSAIDs, corticosteroids, DMARDs have been used, but the safety and efficacy issues demands more researches. The prevalence of PsA worldwide is about 1%-2% and among patients with psoriasis ranges from 7% to 42%. The pathogenesis of PsA involves many cytokines. Tofacitinib is an oral Janus Kinase (JAK) inhibitor with immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory mechanism. It binds to JAK and prevents the activation of the JAK-signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT) signaling pathway which ultimately decreases the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and prevents both inflammatory response and the inflammation-induced damage. It has shown better efficacy in many diseases like Rheumatoid Arthritis, Axial spondyloarthropathies, Psoriasis, Psoriatic Arthritis, Alopecia areata, dry eye disease. This prospective, open label, randomized study will be conducted in inpatient and outpatient departments of Rheumatology, BSMMU, Dhaka, Bangladesh in 110 adult volunteers (>18 years) of both genders diagnosed as psoriatic arthritis. Patients will be divided equally into two groups, Group A will be put on Tofacitinib 5 mg twice daily and Group B will be put on Methotrexate weekly in increasing dose with maximum dose of 25 mg weekly. Groups will be divided on the basis of randomization by random number table. Patients with inadequate response to highest dose of MTX or Tofacitinib 5 mg BD at the end of 3 months will be put on Tofacitinib 5 mg BD or Tofacitinib 10 mg BD respectively. The patients not eligible for therapy will not be included in the study. Patients will be followed up at 1, 3 and 6 months. Baseline characteristics will be monitored and recorded at 3 and 6 months. The clinical information of the study subjects will be recorded in a structured history, clinical examination and questionnaire. All subjects will be enrolled after having informed written consent. The participants will enjoy every right to participate or withdraw from the study at any point of time. Response to Tofacitinib will be expressed in mean, standard deviation and percentage. Ethical clearance will be taken from the Institutional Review Board (IRB) of BSMMU.

BCD-089 is the original therapeutic monoclonal antibody binding the alpha subunit of the IL-6 receptor. The aim of the study is to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of BCD-089 in combination with methotrexate in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis resistant to monotherapy with methotrexate.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of VIB4920 (formerly MEDI4920) in adult participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of CKD-506 on signs and symptoms of RA in subjects with moderate-to-severe RA who are inadequate responders to methotrexate.
