Summary: Background:~CTLA4 stands for cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4. It is a protein the body makes naturally to check its immune system from attacking itself. Some people don t produce enough CTLA4 protein, causing problems due to overactive immune system such as big spleens, repeated lung infections, breathing problems, stomach and intestine symptoms as well as inflamed brain and nerve problems. Many ...

Summary: Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease causing pain, stiffness, swelling and loss of joint function. Despite the range of treatment options for RA steadily increasing, many patients remain sub-optimally managed, with sustained clinical remission rarely achieved. This study will assess the impact of upadacitinib treatment on achievement of remission and low disease activity in ...

Summary: Fatigue is a common feature in patients with rheumatic conditions. Fatigue can lead to a decline in physical function, self-confidence, cognitive status, and work performance and significantly impact the quality of life. While pain and inflammation of arthritis can be well controlled nowadays attributed to the advances in anti-rheumatic medications, fatigue remains a challenge. Even with proper th...

Summary: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a frequent and disabling disease, requiring early management to achieve clinical remission. Recently, baricitinib (jak1-jak2 inhibitor) has been shown to as an efficient treatment in placebo-controlled trials, and compared to the reference treatment with TNF inhibitor (adalimumab). Its efficacy has been reported on the inflammatory parameters, but more importantly on p...

Summary: This is a proof-of-concept study. The main goal is to evaluate if the accelerometry signal recorded from patients with arthritis in different disease activity stages, allows for assessment of the activity status. It will also be analysed if the accelerometry signal can be classified as registered in arthritis patients vs. registered in healthy control. Arthritis subjects will be recruited from the...

Summary: An observational study to describe the effectiveness, safety, and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in female participants with moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in France receiving filgotinib in real-world setting.

Summary: Nowadays, no single drug is approved to treat rheumatoid arthritis-related interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD). The medical management of this clinical condition is empirical and controversial. There is preliminary data that tofacitinib may have a beneficial effect in treating RA-ILD. Tofacitinib may have a double role in treating RA-ILD: treat RA disease activity and an anti-fibrotic possible impa...

Summary: Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease causing pain, stiffness, swelling and loss of joint function. RA can reduce the ability to perform everyday tasks. This study will assess the clinical and patient-reported outcomes with upadacitinib in adult participants with moderate-to-severe RA in a real-world setting.~Upadacitinib is an approved drug for the treatment of adults with m...

Summary: This study will confirm the ability of Tc 99m tilmanocept imaging to predict clinical response in individuals with RA who are beginning anti-TNFα therapy.

Summary: This is a randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, tofacitinib-parallel-group, phase 2A study to assess the safety and efficacy of TLL-018 in active rheumatoid arthritis subject who had an inadequate response or intolerance to methotrexate.

Summary: It has long been claimed that depression, and other psychiatric illness, might be a manifestation of immune dysregulation involving the Central nervous system. Depression is associated with a significantly increased risk of autoimmune disease compared to those without a history of depression. The increased risk of autoimmune diseases is during the first year following the onset of depression .Conv...

Summary: The investigators had observed that baricitinib was effective and safe in active pSS patients in a pilot study. So the investigators plan to conduct a multi-center, prospective, open-label, randomized study to compare the efficacy of baricitinib + hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) with HCQ alone in active pSS patients. The participants will be randomized (1:2) to receive HCQ (200mg twice a day) or bariciti...
