Period 1: The first objective, of period 1, is to compare the safety and efficacy of ABT-494 15 mg QD monotherapy, and 30 mg QD monotherapy versus weekly methotrexate (MTX) monotherapy for the treatment of signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis…
Conditions that promote IL-10 producing B cells in humans are still ill defined. In this project our aim is to investigate the frequnecy of IL-10 producing B cells in healthy volunteers. Next, we aim to compare this to the frequency of IL-10…
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…
MK-1439 is a promising NNRTI to be used in combination with other antiretrovirals (ARTs) for the treatment of HIV infection. It is a potent inhibitor of HIV-1 replication in vitro and is active against both wild type virus and most common NNRTI…
This study aims to enhance pharmacotherapeutic effects in patients with recent-onset RA by means of conditioning (via a variable reinforcement schedule).
To examine if intravenous administration of iron ismore efficacious than oral iron in improvement offitness scores, iron status and reduction of fatigue
Primary Objective:The primary objective of this study is to test the feasibility of methods and procedures prior to performance of a full-scale research project.Secondary Objective(s):The secondary objectives of this study are to determine whether…
> Can fatigue in pSS patients be explained by force decline during a fatiguing task, muscle activation, mood, and the serum levels of proinflammatory cytokines? > What is the contribution of central factors (muscle activation) and…
The purpose of the study is to compare LA-EP2006 and Neulasta® with respect to how quickly and to what extent the compounds are absorbed and eliminated from the body after injection under the skin of the abdomen (this is called pharmacokinetics). It…
To contrast jaw exercises and corticosteroid injection via arthrocentesis in children with JIA and MRI confirmed TMJ arthritis despite 1 year regular treatment by the rheumatologist, in a randomized clinical trial, both in combination with continued…

The primary aim of this study is to investigate the recovery of the circadian rhythm of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis during a glucocorticoid tapering regime. Secondary objectives include the effect of a tapering regime on melatonin rhythm…
Concentration/meditation as a novel means to limit inflammation: a randomized controlled pilot study
The main objective of the study is to determine the effect of practicing the iceman*s concentration/meditation technique on the inflammatory response during human endotoxemia (lipopolysaccharide [LPS] administration in healthy volunteers). Secondary…
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…
Primary Objective is to evaluate the long-term safety of sirukumab in subjects with RA who are refractory to DMARDs or anti-TNF* agents.The secondary objectives are to observe the following long-term effects of sirukumab in subjects with RA who are…
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…
