Active clinical trials for "Arthritis, Rheumatoid"

The overall objective of this proposal is to implement a smart phone application (app) + population management system to monitor rheumatoid arthritis (RA) disease activity between scheduled physician office visits. The population management system includes: 1) a web-based dashboard that consolidates incoming patient-reported data using pre-programmed algorithms to identify increases in disease activity, and 2) the population manager, a trained individual who monitors the web-based dashboard and connects patients with their healthcare providers (HCPs). The investigators central hypothesis is that the combined smart phone app + population management system will improve patient satisfaction and management of RA disease activity.

The aim of the study is to adapt the Evaluation of Daily Activity Questionnaire into Turkish language, and to examine the reliability and validity for people with rheumatoid arthritis.

This prospective, non-interventional research registry is designed to study the comparative effectiveness and comparative safety of approved treatments for RA in a cohort of patients cared for by rheumatologists across North America. Secondary objectives include analyzing the epidemiology and natural history of the disease, its comorbidities, and current treatment practices.

This is a 6-week ketogenic diet (KD) intervention where participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) will follow a KD plan, supervised and monitored by a dietician. Participants will be provided extensive educational and ongoing support on the KD, including personalized coaching with the ability to text a dietitian at any time and expect a response within 12 hours. Diet adherence and progress will be assessed daily using at-home blood ketone/glucose monitors, along with diet records. Participants will fill out health related questionnaires and undergo assessments of body composition, RA disease activity. This study also includes blood draws and fat biopsy of the abdominal region.

The Biorepository is a prospective observational cohort study for patients under the care of a licensed physician or qualified physician extender. Target minimum enrollment is approximately 3,000 patients within the first 5 years of the study with no defined upper limit of enrollment. Sites from Corrona's current North America network will be asked to participate. Participating sites and subjects will not receive results from any laboratory testing conducted on the Samples. Personal identifying information will not be collected along with the Samples. Subjects will provide informed consent to contribute Samples to include blood (serum, plasma, whole blood) to the Biorepository. In the future, Subjects may be asked to contribute other samples (i.e. saliva, urine, stool) and an additional informed consent will be obtained. Subjects will retain the right to withdraw their consent for use of their Samples at any time. In such case, Corrona will destroy any unused/remaining Samples in its possession.

Study X052070 will evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of XOMA 052 administered to patients with active, stable, moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis (RA). It is hypothesized that administration of XOMA 052 is likely to improve inflammatory control in subjects with RA.

To evaluate the effect of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) activity on the corneal densitometry, corneal curvature (CC), central corneal thickness (CCT), and lens densitometry by Pentacam and compared these parameters with those of age-matched healthy control subjects

The primary objective is to prospectively study the comparative effectiveness and comparative safety of approved therapies for RA in a Japanese cohort of patients treated by rheumatologists. Specifically the effectiveness and safety of newer classes and dosages of disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs); e.g. higher dose methotrexate (MTX), non-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) biologics, and Janus Kinase (JAK) inhibitors) will be compared with anti-TNF biologics.

Rheumatoid arthritis patients being seen at one of the participating clinical sites in a U.S. network of community rheumatology practices who are starting treatment on adalimumab or upadacitinib will be enrolled into a 24-week study combining clinical data from physicians, self-reported patient outcomes from the ArthritisPower registry app, and activity and sleep data from a Fitbit wearable device. The primary objective of this study is: • Evaluate longitudinal associations between biometric sensor data (activity and sleep measures), physician-derived data (including clinical disease activity index (CDAI), Rheumatoid Factor (RF) lab results and other relevant biomarkers, current medications and disease duration), and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) (including PROMIS pain interference, physical function, fatigue, sleep disturbance, satisfaction with participation in discretionary social activities, and anxiety). The secondary objectives of this study are as follows: Explore the reliability and predictive validity of biometric sensor data to classify changes in RA disease activity and associated symptoms, including PROs. To assess adherence and predictors of adherence with use of biometric sensor Assess/track changes in upadacitinib and adalimumab patients using combined physician, PRO and biosensor data.

The investigators are interested in enrolling patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who had a difficult time getting their disease under control even after trying multiple RA therapies. The investigators believe that there may be common patterns in the genes of this group of RA patients compared to those with more "textbook RA." Understanding genetic factors can help doctors to know in advance who may not respond to conventional therapies and start with treatments that work. Learning about underlying genes that influence treatment may help the investigators to identify new targets for therapy, to ultimately improve the lives of patients with RA and inflammatory arthritis.
