Helping rheumatoid arthritis patients take medicines on schedule
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Immune system & allergy, Skin clinical trials.
This study looks at how well people with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) take their RA medicines—especially medicines like methotrexate and other targeted or biologic treatments. It may help improve medication adherence (taking doses correctly) and supports safer, more consistent treatment at home.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial studies an add-on treatment approach for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in adults whose symptoms did not improve with standard “first-line” medicines. It may help people who still have active RA after trying certain disease-modifying drugs.
This trial tests whether increasing your methotrexate dose or switching from pills to injections can better control active rheumatoid arthritis. It's for people already taking a stable, moderate dose of methotrexate but still having joint swelling and symptoms.
This trial studies rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients starting or adjusting DMARD medicines and looks for signs that predict who responds best. It may help doctors choose more effective treatment sooner.
This trial tests an experimental drug for people with rheumatoid arthritis who have not had success with other treatments. It aims to see if the drug can help reduce joint pain and swelling.
This trial tests a step-by-step plan for treating rheumatoid arthritis when current medicines aren’t controlling the disease. It compares how well a targeted approach works by adjusting treatment for people who need a TNF inhibitor.
This trial compares two ways to reduce the amount of rituximab you take: one that gradually gives it less often based on time, and another that only gives it when your disease flares up. The goal is to see which approach keeps your arthritis under control while using less medication.
