Arthritis Paid Clinical Trials in Illinois

Prospective, multicenter, two-arm, 2:1 randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing the benefits in subjects with medial knee osteoarthritis who are treated with either the MISHA Knee System or with non-surgical treatment. This is the first randomized head-to-head study comparing outcomes from subjects treated with the MISHA Knee System. Read Less

The purpose of this trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of dapansutrile (OLT1177®) tablets in subjects with an acute gout flare. Read Less

This post-marketing study is designed to compare the safety of baricitinib versus tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors with respect to venous thromboembolic events (VTEs) when given to participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of guselkumab treatment in participants with active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) axial disease by assessing reduction in axial symptoms and inflammation. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of icotrokinra compared to placebo in participants with active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) by assessing the reduction in signs and symptoms of PsA. Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of Neural Ice for pain management associated with knee osteoarthritis in adults aged 22-80 years. Participants will attend study visits and complete subject diaries. Participants will be followed for 6 months after study procedure. Read Less

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of LY3871801 in adult participants with active moderately-to-severe rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Read Less

This phase Ib trial studies the side effects of nivolumab and to see how well it works in treating patients with autoimmune disorders and cancer that has spread to other places in the body or cannot removed by surgery. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about preventing falls in people who have total knee replacement surgery using treadmill perturbation training. Perturbation training involves adjusting to rapid speed changes on a treadmill. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does perturbation training improve the way that people who are planning to have total knee replacement surgery recover after treadmill test that reproduces a trip to the front or side? * Does perturbation training reduce the incidence of preventable gait-related falls during the first year after total knee replacement? Participants will: * complete surveys about their condition and fall history and take part in testing of walking ability and balance. * have a baseline gait analysis test to measure the motion of their body during normal walking. * Be randomized into two groups. One will receive fall-prevention literature. The other will receive the same literature and then take part in a two-week treadmill perturbation training program. * be contacted every two weeks for one year, and asked questions about whether they have fallen during that time. * wear a Fitbit activity monitor on their wrist for one year. Researchers will compare the number of falls from the group that only received literature to the treatment group to see if the training group has fewer falls during the year after surgery. Read Less

Genicular Artery Embolization for Reducing Pain in Symptomatic Knee Osteoarthritis: A Pilot Randomized Sham-Controlled Study (SHAM-PAIN) is a NIH-NIAMS funded project designed to assess enrollment feasibility and detect any differences between GAE and a similar sham intervention in reducing KOA-related pain at 3 months as measured by the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) pain subscore. Additionally, this study aims to determine the magnitude of difference in pain response between GAE and sham to adequately power a larger, more definitive randomized sham-controlled trial (RCT). The influence of psychosocial and psychocognitive factors, changes in analgesic use, and conditions of knee joint cartilage and effusion will similarly be explored to determine their impacts on perceived pain response to GAE.

The purpose of this study is to determine if hip precautions, which are instructions that limit functional use of a hip replacement after surgery, affect the rate of dislocation in the first six weeks after primary total hip replacement surgery. The impact of hip precautions on a patient's return to activities of daily living and overall patient satisfaction will also be investigated. The overall cost effectiveness of hip precautions will be determined. Read Less

The objective is to identify modifiable clinical factors and neurobiological pathways that lead to the development of chronic pain in patients with early rheumatoid arthritis. Participants will undergo quantitative sensory testing, a type of testing that involves assessing response to well-defined, quantifiable painful stimuli, at 0, 3, and 12 months. A subset of participants will also undergo magnetic resonance imaging at 0 and 12 months to assess neuroimaging markers that have previously been shown to be involved in chronic pain. Read Less
