Arthritis Paid Clinical Trials in Pennsylvania

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

This Phase 2b, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized withdrawal study is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of IMVT-1402 in adult participants with active, difficult-to-treat, anti-citrullinated protein autoantibody (ACPA) positive rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of bimekizumab on gene expression biomarkers at Week 48 in a subset of study participants with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis (PSO) and moderate to severe plaque PSO with concomitant active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) who have provided skin biopsies for reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).

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 purpose of the chronic pain master protocol is to compare independent pain interventions and establish an overarching structure for the disease-state addenda (DSA) and intervention-specific appendices (ISAs). The ISAs may start independently of other ISAs as interventions become available for clinical testing. Read Less

The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy of bimekizumab versus risankizumab after 16 weeks of treatment in study participants with active psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Read Less

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

The 2021 ACR RA treatment guideline, based on widely acknowledged low to moderate quality evidence, recommends switching to a non-tumor necrosis factor (TNFi) biologic (choose among existing medications, currently, rituximab, abatacept, tocilizumab, or sarilumab) or a targeted synthetic DMARD arm (tsDMARD; choose among existing medications, currently, tofacitinib, baricitinib, upadacitinib) in patients with active RA despite the use of a TNFi-biologic. In practice, most patients receive another TNFi-biologic, i.e., a second TNFi-biologic first. This is not based on solid evidence, but on arbitrary algorithms often proposed by health insurance plans, and/or physician experience and habit (TNFis launched 22 yrs ago vs. the first tsDMARD 8 years ago vs. first non-TNF-biologic launched 17 years ago). This study will fill a critical knowledge gap by generating CER data for important PROs between these treatment options, switching to a non-TNFi biologic or a tsDMARD in patients with active RA despite the use of a TNFi-biologic.

53-Week Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Intra-articular (IA) Injections of TPX-100 vs Placebo in Subjects with Mild to Severe Tibio-Femoral Osteoarthritis of the Knee Read Less

Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a type of arthritis that happens when the body's immune system attacks healthy cells and tissues causing joint pain, stiffness, and swelling. Symptoms can get worse and go away for periods of time. This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of targeted therapies through a series of substudies, for the treatment of active psoriatic arthritis and to assess the changes in disease symptoms. The therapies being assessed in this sub-study are risankizumab and lutikizumab. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to one of the three treatment arms: lutikizumab monotherapy, risankizumab monotherapy or a combination therapy of lutikizumab and risankizumab. Around 120 participants will be enrolled in the study at approximately 40 sites worldwide. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care (due to study procedures). Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires. Read Less

Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects the joints and skin in people who have psoriasis (PsO). The main aim of the study is to know how well zasocitinib (TAK-279) works in participants with active PsA who have not previously been treated with biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs. The participants will be treated with either zasocitinib, active comparator, or placebo. Participants will be in the study for up to 60 weeks. Read Less

Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects the joints and skin in people who have psoriasis (PsO). The main aim of the study is to know how well zasocitinib (TAK-279) works in participants with active PsA based on their previous experience with specific treatments. The participants will be treated with either zasocitinib, or placebo. Participants will be in the study for up to 60 weeks. Read Less
