Active clinical trials for "Arthritis, Rheumatoid"

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Fang yi qing Feng shi granules in subjects with Rheumatoid Arthritis.

This study is intended to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Certolizumab Pegol (CZP) in combination with Methotrexate (MTX) for inducing and sustaining clinical response in the treatment of Disease Modifying Antirheumatic Drug (DMARD)-naïve adults with early active Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Primary Objective: Assess the comparative safety and tolerability of two SAR153191 (REGN88) drug products after a single dose administration in rheumatoid arthritis patients. Secondary Objective: Assess the comparative pharmacokinetic profiles of the two SAR153191 (REGN88) drug products after a single dose administration in rheumatoid arthritis patients.

The hypothesis of this study is that subcutaneous Abatacept is effective in reducing synovial inflammation, osteitis, and erosions in Rheumatoid Arthritis as assessed by low field extremity MRI and X-ray.

This open-label, multi-center, two-arm, uncontrolled and non-randomized study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Patients will receive 8 mg/kg RoActemra/Actemra intravenously every 4 weeks for 12 weeks and - if adequately responded - for further 12 weeks. Patients, who show an inadequate clinical response after the first 12 weeks to RoActemra/Actemra, will receive 1 g MabThera/Rituxan (rituximab) intravenously at Week 16 and 18. The anticipated time of study treatment is 32 weeks.

This multicenter, open-label, single arm study will assess the safety and efficacy of RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) in combination with methotrexate in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis who have an inadequate response to non-biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs). Patients will receive RoActemra/Actemra 8 mg/kg intravenously every 4 weeks for a total of 6 infusions plus methotrexate 10-25 mg orally weekly. Anticipated time on study treatment is 24 weeks.

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of multiple doses of PF-04171327, an experimental glucocorticoid drug, to prednisone at 5 mg or 10 mg and placebo in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. All subjects will also be receiving background treatment of methotrexate for their rheumatoid arthritis. Study medication will be given for eight weeks followed by a 4 week period during which the dose of study medication will be gradually reduced. The efficacy of the study medications will be determined by assessing severity of the rheumatoid arthritis during the study and safety will be determined by adverse event reporting, laboratory tests and biomarker analysis.

The study compared the efficacy and assessed the safety of secukinumab given as 3 intravenous (i.v.) loading doses or weekly sub-cutaneous (s.c.) loading doses, compared to placebo, followed by monthly s.c. injections in patients with active Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) despite treatment with Methotrexate.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effective dose of BMS-945429 in subjects with inadequate response to Methotrexate in the treatment of moderate to severe Rheumatoid Arthritis.

This study was designed to evaluate the safety of administering rituximab at a more rapid infusion rate in patients with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis who have had an inadequate response to biopharmaceuticals that treat diseases by interfering with tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF therapies), and were receiving methotrexate therapy for more than eight weeks.
