Active clinical trials for "Spondylitis"

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of ustekinumab in adult participants with active nonradiographic axial spondyloarthritis (nr-AxSpA) measured by the reduction in signs and symptoms of nonradiographic axial spondyloarthritis (nr-AxSpA).

Primary Objective: To assess the long term safety of Sarilumab (SAR153191/REGN88) in participants with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) Secondary Objective: To assess the long term efficacy of Sarilumab (SAR153191/REGN88) in participants with AS

The purpose of the study is to investigate the clinical benefit of tramadol/acetaminophen versus non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) (diclofenac 50 milligram [mg]) in the treatment of pain in participants with ankylosing spondylitis (inflammation of the spine causing pain and stiffness) receiving stable treatment of disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs).

This is a Phase 2 study, involving a 12-week treatment period, designed to evaluate the effectiveness of investigational study drug ARRY-371797 (versus placebo) in treating ankylosing spondylitis, and to further evaluate the drug's safety. Approximately 130 patients from the US, Canada, Poland and Hungary will be enrolled in this study.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of ustekinumab, in adult participants with active radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (AxSpA), who are naive to anti-TNF alpha agents, as measured by the reduction in signs and symptoms of radiographic AxSpA.

This is a randomized, double-Blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2a study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SUNPG1622.

This study is designed to learn about response to CC-99677 treatment by measuring signs and symptoms of Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS), objective measures of disease activity, quality of life assessments, pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability over a 12-week double-blind period.

This is a multi-center, double-blind, randomized, parallel-group, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ENIA11 in patients with ankylosing spondylitis. The study period for each patient will be 27 weeks, during which the patient will undergo screening for up to 21 days, and followed by treatment of 24 weeks and follow up period of 2 weeks. Each patient will be required to make a total of 9 visits. After re-confirming the eligibility of patients at Visit 2, eligible patients will be randomly assigned to either treatment group or control group in a 2:1 ratio. In addition, patients in the treatment group will receive ENIA11 25 mg twice weekly by subcutaneous injection while patients in the control group will receive placebo solution twice weekly by subcutaneous injection from Day 0 to week 12 and then switch to active drug from week 12 to week 24 and follow up period of 2 weeks. The efficacy analysis, including ASAS response measures, ASAS5/6, ASDAS, BASDAS, BASFI, BASMI and individual measures of disease activity, such as numbers of swollen and tender joints, ESR and CRP, will be evaluated at each visit from Visit 2 (baseline) to Visit 9. Safety will be evaluated according to the frequency of adverse events, vital signs, physical examination, laboratory abnormalities, and ENIA11 antibody formation.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of ustekinumab, in adult anti-TNF(alpha) refractory participants with active radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (AxSpA), as measured by the reduction in signs and symptoms of radiographic AxSpA.

Spondyloarthritis refers to a set of inflammatory disorders that mainly afflict the spine, joints and ligaments. A subtype of spondyloarthritis is Ankylosing Spondylitis - now known as axial spondyloarthropathy - which is characterized by inflammation of the joints in the spinal column, and the part of the back where the spine meets the pelvis. Another subtype of spondyloarthritis is Psoriatic Arthritis where patients often develop raised patches of reddened skin. The disease can advance to one of more joints in the body resulting in pain, swelling and stiffness. These forms of inflammatory arthritis can become chronic and over time can lead to pain, disability and deformity. There is now evidence that patients with inflammatory arthritis that are diagnosed and treated earlier in the course of their symptoms may have better results. Yet although we know that early treatment is important, the investigators still don't know if there are factors that can predict how an individual patient's disease will progress over time in terms of losing mobility. The investigators also do not know the relationship between loosing mobility and the formation of bone around the spine and joints. The investigators are doing this study because the investigators want to learn more about patients with these forms of arthritis - Ankylosing Spondylitis and Psoriatic Arthritis. The investigators want to learn more about the factors that can predict how their disease might progress over time and what their response to treatment might be. The investigators would also like to determine the proportion of patients with these types of symptoms and describe the best treatment strategies for them.
