Active clinical trials for "Lupus Erythematosus, Systemic"

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a study drug known as LY3471851 in participants with SLE. The study will last about 79 days for each participant.

To address the health disparities in SLE outcomes for minorities, targeted intervention will be used to address the common barriers to care among patients; a comprehensive patient navigator approach will be utilized based on evidence from prior studies is the purpose of this research. The navigator services most commonly provided include facilitation and coordination of care, practical support, including scheduling transportation and referrals to financial assistance programs, appointment scheduling and reminders, education and psycho-social support. The most effective patient navigators address both health system and patient barriers.

The study will be a non-randomized, open label, single dose, placebo control, single center, and single arm study in healthy subjects. The study will include one administration of placebo and four single administrations of Oshadi D in two different dose levels, administered in two feeding regimen for the evaluation of the influence of food on Oshadi D absorption.

Non-adherence to evidence-based prescription medications results in preventable morbidity and mortality for middle-aged and older adults. Taking medications intended for daily use, like those to prevent or treat chronic conditions, is a repetitive action that has great similarity with other behaviors that must be performed consistently, such as regular exercise, healthy eating, and hand washing. In these cases, people who act consistently do so out of habit. The "repetition-cue-reward" model proposes that habit formation has three central components: behavioral repetition, associated context cues, and rewards. This model has obvious applicability to the daily repetitive activity of medication-taking but has not been tested for this behavior nor adapted as an intervention for patients in real-world care settings. The goal of this pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of using the repetition-cue-reward model of healthy habit formation to improve medication adherence in patients with arthritis and other rheumatic diseases.

The main purpose of this study is to learn more about the safety of LY3361237 and any side effects that might be associated with it when given to participants with systemic lupus erythematosis (SLE). LY3361237 will be administered by injections just under the skin. The study will last up to 26 weeks and may include up to 17 visits to the study center.

This project aims to improve adherence rate through pharmaceutical care in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) to help achieving therapeutic goals and finally to improve the quality of life of these patients.

This study is an open-label, randomized, 2 parallel group, single dose study in healthy Japanese males to assess the pharmacokinetics and safety/tolerability of single intravenous administration and single subcutaneous administration of GSK1550188. Serial blood samples for the determination of GSK1550188 concentration will be collected and safety assessments will be performed for each treatment group

This study asks whether persons with lupus will use and uptake the information and services of the web-based lupus interactive navigator (LIN) on a regular basis and whether this uptake will be associated with better self-management, improved coping, higher sense of control over their life, and overall improved health. Systemic lupus erythematosus is an incurable chronic multi-organ inflammatory disease that affects preferentially young women. Unmet needs include a 15% excess in mortality, high morbidity and poor work outcomes. Despite prevalence of 1:2000, lupus is mostly unknown from the public and access to specialized care remains limited. Therefore, persons with lupus and their caregivers have difficulty finding high quality information relevant to their "lupus journey". The LIN research team consists of a lupus clinical expert and researcher, a clinical psychologist and behavioral researcher, and a health information specialist. This team, funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), was responsible for the development of the LIN, a web-based navigator designed to promote self-care. The LIN is completed and the team will work with several stakeholders for dissemination: Lupus Canada, the Canadian Network for Improved Outcomes in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (CaNIOS), the Arthritis Alliance of Canada, and lupus patient advisers. CaNIOS centres will be to randomized to immediate access to the LIN (LIN_NOW group) or usual care with crossover at 3 months (LIN_WAIT group). At baseline, all patients meeting entry criteria will be contacted, and asked to complete online questionnaires. At three months, a second online assessment will be performed before crossing over those from the centres randomized to usual care in order to now provide them with an access to the LIN. A final assessment will be performed at six months. Comparisons of baseline versus LIN exposure over three months will be performed in all patients at the end of the study; comparison of LIN use versus usual care will be done at three months; and retention of use at six months after LIN exposure will be documented in the first group randomized to LIN. The main outcome will be the Patient Activation Measure, a valid tool that measures the level of patient engagement. Secondary outcomes will include variables describing access and use of the LIN captured by the LIN server, coping, self-efficacy, and global health status.
