Here, we postulate that the balance between the effect of belatacept on regulatory T-cell function and the relative insensitivity of memory T-cells for belatacept leads to donor-specific alloreactivity. We plan to study the peripheral CD28-dependent…
The follow-up study has two main research questions:o Is the treatment of early RA according to the COBRA-light schedule as effective (based on DAS44 score, ACR/EULAR remission criteria, HAQ score and the Sharp/van der Heijde score) as standard…
Objective: The primary goal of the current study is to study the immunogenicity and safety of HPV vaccination in patients with an autoimmune disease. Based on retrospective analysis with other vaccines we hypothesize that patients with autoimmune…
Primary ObjectiveThe primary objective of this study is to compare prospectively in patients treated with TCZ or etanercept (ETA), the time to first occurrence of any component of a composite of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) consisting…
To characterize the profile of low BMD in >= 50 years old male HIV-1 infected subjects andpost-menopausal female HIV-1 infected subjects taking TDF-based regimens relative tothose taking non-TDF-based regimens for HIV infection.
The present proposal seeks to compare the cardiovascular and gastrointestinal safety and effectiveness of a strategy of initial randomisation to treatment with the selective COX-2 inhibitor celecoxib or to *usual-care* with their current non-…

Are there differences is efficacy, side effects, tolerance en costs in patients with early RA in treatment with COBRA-light compared with COBRA according to BeSt?
First, to estimate the cost-effectiveness of SCIT with tree pollen (TP), grass pollen (GP), and house dust mites (HDM) - the most prevalent allergies treated with SCIT - or combinations compared with UC. Second, to estimate the clinical efficacy of…
