Upadacitinib for Psoriatic Arthritis

AbbVie Clinic, Omaha + 1 more

The study objectives of Period 1 are to compare the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of upadacitinib 15 mg once daily (QD) and 30 mg QD versus placebo for the treatment of signs and symptoms in adults with moderately to severely active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) who have had an inadequate response or intolerance to biologic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug (bDMARD). The objective of Period 2 is to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability and efficacy of upadacitinib 15 mg QD and 30 mg QD in participants who have completed Period 1.Show More

Amniotic Suspension Allograft for Knee Osteoarthritis

Organogenesis Clinic, Omaha + 1 more

This trial is testing if injecting ASA into the knee can help people with knee osteoarthritis feel better. The study will check pain levels, knee function, and safety over several months. ASA (Amniotic Suspension Allograft) has been shown to be an effective treatment for knee osteoarthritis in previous studies.Show More

DMARDs for Rheumatoid Arthritis

Research Clinic, Omaha + 1 more

This is a 16-week, open-label study to identify factors that help predict clinical responses to disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARD) therapies for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. All patients will receive a starting dose of DMARD medication(s) which may be adjusted by the investigator as needed. If a subject becomes intolerant to a DMARD medication the subject will be withdrawn from the study at the discretion of the investigator. Visits (prior to week 16) where withdrawal is determined to be necessary will be considered end of study. End of study data (week 16) as well as study serum will be collected. (Serum only collected on those subjects who have consented to the addendum Serum and DNA of this study). A portion of the blood collected at baseline, week 8 and week 16 with the addendum portion of the study is for future research and will be utilized attempting to look to detect the generation of superoxide radicals. The radicals have been shown to be associated with inflammation and may correlate with the progression of RA. If this is true, then treatment with RA should decrease the levels of these radicals signaling response to treatment.Show More

Health Coaching + Incentives for Knee Osteoarthritis

Research Clinic, Omaha + 1 more

The aims are to determine whether 1) an incentive based on behaviorally-enhanced gamification and social incentives and 2) health coaching can promote adherence to exercise and physical activity after physical therapy for osteoarthritis of the knee (KOA). The research design is a randomized clinical trial with factorial design This randomized clinical trial of 254 patients using a factorial design will leverage a clinical trial platform developed through the University of Pennsylvania that allows for the remotely capture important patient-reported outcomes and other interaction through a participant's smart phone. The investigators will randomize participants to receive social incentives with gamification to promote adherence to prescribed exercises as well as maintenance of greater levels of physical activity and compare to controls that receive a Fitbit but no additional incentive. Participants may also be randomized to receive a health coach. The investigators will utilize mobile applications for smart phones and wearable activity trackers through the Way-to-Health platform and assess, in real time, the impact of the interventions on patient-reported function and pain (as measured by the Knee Osteoarthritis Outcome Score) as well as physical activity. Participants will be followed for 2 years, with a total of 5 in-person visits. Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is one of the most prevalent and disabling conditions among Veterans and accounts for high morbidity and high costs for the VA. Importantly, while physical therapy is valuable for patients with KOA, lack of adherence to home exercises and low overall physical activity limit the durability of response. The current proposal aims to address two important knowledge gaps in the management of KOA in order to improve pain and function.Show More

Exercise Incentives + Corticosteroid Injections for Osteoarthritis

Research Clinic, Omaha + 1 more

Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is one of the most common and disabling conditions among Veterans. Management of KOA is challenging as there are few effective treatments other than joint replacement. Importantly, low levels of physical activity in patients with knee problems might worsen pain and disability. This study aims to determine the feasibility of using methods to change behavior that use social incentives and promote physical activity through playing games and interacting with a web-based platform. The study will also evaluate an important and widely used treatment, namely corticosteroid injections. Participants will be randomized into one of 4 arms and will receive a different combination of social incentives and injections. The study will evaluate which approach is most effective at promoting physical activity and reducing pain and disability.Show More

Long-Term Safety of Filgotinib for Rheumatoid Arthritis

Galapagos NV Clinic, Lincoln + 1 more

This trial aims to check the ongoing safety and tolerability of filgotinib, a medication that helps reduce inflammation and pain. The study focuses on people with rheumatoid arthritis who have already used filgotinib in a previous study. Filgotinib works by blocking enzymes that cause inflammation, helping to reduce swelling and pain. Filgotinib has been approved for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis in adults who respond inadequately to other treatments in Europe and Japan.Show More

Research Clinic, Omaha + 1 more

The trial is an open-label randomized study that will examine whether switching to a selective IL23 inhibitor (guselkumab) is more effective than switching to a second TNFi (golimumab) among patients with PsA who have an inadequate response to a TNFi.Show More
