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 randomized pragmatic trial will generate knowledge about strategies used to de-escalate tumor necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi) therapy in patients with juvenile spondyloarthritis with sustained inactive disease and are treated at one of the 29 participating pediatric healthcare systems. This open label study will be conducted in the setting of routine clinical care and will compare the risk and timing of flare (Aim 1) and patients' lived experiences (Aim 2) across three arms.

There is an urgent public health need to reduce reliance on opioids for effective long-term pain management, particularly in knee osteoarthritis (KOA). This effectiveness trial will compare commonly recommended treatments to reduce pain and functional limitations in KOA.These results will lead to improved patient selection for treatment and inform evidence based guidelines by offering well-tested, effective, non-surgical alternatives.

This research assesses the effects that Photobiomodulation Therapy (PBMT) has on Intra-articular administered Plasma-Rich Platelet (PRP) injections for Knee Osteoarthritis (KOA) treatment through evaluations of synovial and serum inflammatory and reparative biomarkers. A comparison of Physical Therapy (PT) vs PT + PRP vs PT + PBMT vs PT + PRP + PBMT for KOA treatment is made. The relationship between self-reported pain and functionality and treatment mechanisms is analyzed along with an analysis of the intersectionality between participant self-reported pain and functionality and medicine markers across treatment groups. These aims seek to inform current treatment practices in treating KOA and returning Active-Duty Service Members to duty readiness. Read Less

This study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ASA compared to placebo in the management of osteoarthritis (OA) symptoms of the knee. Read Less

The objective of this consecutive series PMCF study is to collect data confirming safety, performance, and clinical benefits of the Taperloc Complete stems when used for primary or revision total hip arthroplasty (implants) at 1,3,5,7 and 10-year follow-up*. Since Taperloc Complete was introduced to the EU in 2010, all available retrospective data will be collected from each patient and a prospective aspect to the study will be necessary to reach the 10-year time point.

The goal of treating patients diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is to achieve remission or low disease activity and thereby prevent joint damage, loss of physical function, and disability. Optimal management requires regular assessment of disease activity, with treatment changes made as needed for optimal efficacy. Vectra is a blood serum test that looks at 12 biomarkers and produces a score on a scale of 1 to 100. The Vectra score has been shown to be the strongest predictor of risk for progression of disease. There is opportunity to gain more information about the utility of Vectra in a real-world clinical setting. This study will, therefore, evaluate the utility of Vectra for guiding treatment decisions and improving RA-related outcomes in comparison with usual care, which will not include Vectra testing. This study will enable a direct evaluation of the clinical benefit associated with using Vectra to guide treatment decisions in patients with RA. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to understand variation in the symptoms of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis using simple, scalable smartphone-based measurements. This study uses an iPhone app to record these symptoms through questionnaires and sensors. Read Less

This study will compare two different treatment approaches for the management of knee osteoarthritis (OA). All subjects will receive a standardized approach consistent with the core set of recommendation from the Department of Defense (DoD) and Veterans Administration (VA) Clinical Practice Guidelines for Non-Surgical Management of Knee Osteoarthritis. Follow-up will occur over a 1 year period. Read Less

Arthritis is a common condition in the United States, and a leading cause of pain and disability. Physical exercise is recommended for managing arthritis, but access to evidence-based exercise programs is limited, particularly in rural areas. Therefore, the investigators propose to evaluate remote delivery of an evidence-based exercise program called Enhance Fitness (EF) that is recommended for arthritis management. The primary purpose of this study is to determine if remotely delivered EF is non-inferior to in-person EF on primary and secondary outcomes. Read Less

This clinical trial will determine the added benefit of combining exercise and behavioral health education (versus exercise and aging and health education) to improve physical activity in community-dwelling older adults who have painful knee osteoarthritis (OA). Read Less
