Active clinical trials for "Spondylitis, Ankylosing"

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple doses of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell injection in patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis, and to further explore the efficacy, pharmacodynamic profile and appropriate dose of administration to provide a basis for the use of safer and more effective treatments for patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis in the future. Participants are required to sign an informed consent form and, after undergoing a series of tests and meeting the protocol's entry and exclusion criteria, are assigned to a dose group for intravenous infusion of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells.

The purpose of the OTIS Autoimmune Diseases in Pregnancy Study is to monitor planned and unplanned pregnancies exposed to certain medications, to evaluate the possible teratogenic effect of these medications and to follow live born infants for five years after birth. With respect to fetal outcome, it is important to evaluate the spectrum of outcomes that may be relevant to a medication exposure during pregnancy, and these include both easily recognizable defects which are visible at birth, as well as more subtle or delayed defects that may not be readily identifiable without special expertise and observation beyond the newborn period.

Xeljanz XR extended-release tablets 11 mg (Tofacitinib citrate) is a drug subject to the risk management plan in accordance with Article 4-1-11 of the "Regulation on Safety of Medicinal Products, etc." in Korea. As part of additional pharmacovigilance activity, this Post-marketing Surveillance (PMS) was planned to evaluate safety and effectiveness of Xeljanz XR under routine clinical practice. At least 200 patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis, Psoriatic Arthritis, or Ankylosing Spondylitis who were treated with Xeljanz XR will be enrolled about four years.

The purpose of this study is to determine if Jaktinib is safe and effective in participants with active ankylosing spondylitis.

Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is an inflammatory disease of the joints characterized by the swelling of multiple joints and tenderness caused by progressive inflammatory synovitis, which leads to serious and debilitating diseases. Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a skin condition that may cause a rash and itching due to inflammation of the skin. Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) is a form of chronic arthritis causing inflammation in the spine. This can cause pain and stiffness in the back. Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a type of arthritis (swelling and stiffness in the joints) that is frequently seen in trial participants who also have the skin condition psoriasis. It is caused by the body's immune system mistakenly attacking healthy joint tissue causing inflammation, joint damage, disability, and a reduced life expectancy. This study will assess the adverse events and change in disease symptoms in Korean participants with RA, AD, AS or PsA. Upadacitinib is a drug approved for the treatment of moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis, atopic dermatitis, ankylosing spondylitis or psoriatic arthritis. Korean participants who have been prescribed upadacitinib by their physicians will be enrolled. Approximately, 3600 participants will be enrolled this study, in multiple sites within Korea. Participants will receive Upadacitinib as prescribed by the physician and will be followed for approximately 28 weeks. There will be no additional burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the course of the study at a hospital or clinic and will be asked to provide additional information by questionnaire at each visit.

A prospective, longitudinal, multicentre, observational cohort follow-up study conducted in France.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune, chronic inflammatory disease and TNF-alpha has been recognized as a triggering cytokine in the induction of joints inflammation and is involved in the pathogenesis of RA. Treatment for RA aims to reduce disease activity, prevent or manage joint deterioration and lower the risk of major comorbidities such as heart disease and stroke. The strategy of targeting cytokines has significantly increased RA patient outcomes. Therefore management with biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs "bDMARD" (Etanercept, Infliximab, Adalimumab) should be considered, If the treatment goal is not met with the first conventional synthetic drug modifying antirheumatic drugs (csDMARD) strategy, or if there are poor prognostic factors. The multi-biomarker disease activity test could be used to help standardise individual treatment decisions, especially in patients who failed to respond well to the traditional treatment. Iraq does not currently have specific guidelines, which might pose a risk to patients' safety. More data about the choice of bDMARD is needed in terms of tracking therapeutic response, or whether TNF or other pro-inflammatory cytokines like interleukin-6 (IL-6) is the main factor for the development and severity of RA. These data are important to improve the overall status of the patient, better choice of treatment and biomarkers to detect. There is limited information on the treatment patterns of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) across Iraq including the Kurdistan Region. Therefore, the aim of this research is to evaluate the efficacy, and clinical responses of RA patients who have been treated with different anti-TNF, as well as on answering the research hypothesis, Can plasma TNF-alpha and IL-6 be used as markers of therapeutic response to TNF alpha antagonist in patients with RA?

This study is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase II clinical study. The study was divided into three stages, including screening period, treatment period and observation period. All subjects need to enter a 28 day (4-week) observation period after stopping hemay005 treatment. Screening period: all subjects shall have a screening period of no more than 28 days (4 weeks) before the baseline visit (day 1 of randomization). Treatment period: after screening and meeting the inclusion requirements of the study, as subjects were randomly divided into hemay005 60 mg twice daily (bid) dose group (group A), 75 mg bid dose group (group B) and placebo control group (Group C) according to the ratio of 1:1:1. A total of 90 subjects were included in the three groups. They were titrated in the first 6 days. From the 7th day, the subjects received fixed dose administration twice a day for 112 consecutive days (16 weeks). Considering the difference in the proportion of men and women with as, and the slow onset and mild condition of women, randomization will minimize the imbalance between treatment groups according to gender stratification. Observation period: Subjects in the study (including those who withdrew from the treatment early for any reason) shall be observed for 4 weeks after the end of the last administration. Main purpose: The efficacy of hemay005 tablet in the treatment of active ankylosing spondylitis (as) was evaluated by placebo parallel control. Secondary purpose: To evaluate the safety of oral hemay005 tablets in patients with active as. To evaluate the population pharmacokinetics of hemay005 tablets in patients with active as.

The systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) is defined as "neutrophil count × monocytes/lymphocyte counts". It has been reported that SIRI can predict survival in various types of cancer, including pancreatic cancer , gallbladder cancer , oral squamous cell carcinoma , and cervical cancer. Again, SIRI can demonstrate disease activity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), It has been reported that it can predict the development of RA-related interstitial lung disease and tumor development . Ankylosing spondylitis management strategies should be aimed at controlling disease activity, improving spinal mobility and functional status . Treatment usually includes the use of anti-inflammatory drugs to reduce pain and stiffness, and the use of disease-modifying drugs to try to stop or prevent disease progression. Patients are also advised to exercise to maintain the mobility of the spine and peripheral joints . Studies on this subject reveal that exercise is as important as drug therapy in the treatment of AS . Again, the importance of exercise in AS was emphasized in the clinical guidelines for the treatment of AS by ASAS (The Assesment in Ankylosing Spondylitis : Working Group) and EULAR (European League Against Rheumatism) . In addition to the effects of exercise on muscle strength, joint limitations, physical performance, endurance capacity and quality of life, its anti-inflammatory effects are also known. In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the effect of exercise therapy on disease activity in AS patients with systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) and systemic inflammation index (SII). There is not enough evidence in the literature that systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) and systemic inflammation index (SII) can be used in the evaluation of disease activity in AS.

Autoimmune diseases are the consequence of an abnormality of the immune system, leading it to attack components of our own body. They have a wide variety of presentations. They preferentially affect women, and often at a young age. Systemic lupus erythematosus, for example, most often occurs between the ages of 15 and 40. Inflammatory rheumatism, such as spondyloarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis, is less prevalent in women, but also affects young people, and is particularly common. Several disease-modifying treatments exist, depending on the severity and evolutivitý of the disease. Some are contraindicated or not recommended during pregnancy and therefore require supervision of pregnancy plans. In addition, some treatments have an immunosuppressive activitý, which implies an annual screening of cervical lesions by cervico-uterine smear. In this context, an adapted gynecological follow-up seems indispensable. The rheumatologist and the internist physician have a crucial role in advising and referring patients to their gynecological colleagues. Studying the qualitý of this gynecological follow-up in a cohort of patients with autoimmune disease or inflammatory rheumatism is of major interest.
