A Phase 4, Open-label Study of KRYSTEXXA® (Pegloticase) Co-administered With Methotrexate (MTX) in Patients With Uncontrolled Gout (FORWARD OL)
This trial is to assess efficacy, safety, blood levels and bodily effects of up to 2 dose levels of intravenous (IV) pegloticase (KRYSTEXXA) infusions at every 4 week intervals (Q4 Weeks) for up to 6 months (Day 1 to 24 weeks with an optional 24 - 48 weeks treatment duration) when given in combination with weekly oral doses of methotrexate (MTX). The goal is to identify an appropriate dose to be administered every 4 weeks to be used for future clinical trials for patients with chronic gout that does not adequately respond to conventional therapy.

A Pilot Proof of Concept Study of the Effects of Administration of SCFA in Rheumatoid Arthritis (EASi-RA)
This study is a pilot, proof of concept study to determine the effects of administering an oral short chain fatty acid (SCFA) supplement along with methotrexate as first line treatment of new onset rheumatoid arthritis (NORA) patients. Up to 50 participants will be included to obtain a sample size of at least 16 participants taking the oral supplement. The study team hypothesizes that oral SCFA will change the participants' gut microbiome and regulatory immune responses. Clinical data to assess for adverse events, stool, urine samples and peripheral blood will be collected at baseline, 2 and 4 months with an optional 6-month time ...

A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial for Hand Osteoarthritis
This is a study involving people receiving care at the Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center, Houston Texas. We are studying people who have hand osteoarthritis (the most common form of arthritis that involves the hand) and testing treatments for the condition with the hope that we can help to improve hand pain as well as limit the damage that occurs related to the arthritis. People who choose to participate, are randomly assigned to one of two treatments, both expected to be helpful.

A Pivotal Study of the Premia Spine TOPS™ System
The purpose of this trial is to assess whether the Total Posterior Spine System (TOPS System) is more effective than transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) when used to stabilize a single lumbar level (L2 - L5) following surgical decompression in patients diagnosed with (1) at least moderate lumbar spinal stenosis, and (2) Grade 1 spondylolisthesis (or retrolisthesis), and (3) thickening of the ligamentum flavum or scarring of the facet joint capsule. Success will be assessed by means of a composite endpoint that measures improvement in in patient reported outcomes and the absence of any major device related complications. ...

Apollo Device for Fatigue in Systemic Sclerosis
The purpose of this study is to learn about the effect of Apollo (a vibrating wearable about the side of an Apple Watch) on fatigue, Raynaud symptoms, depression, quality of life, and disease symptoms in patients with systemic sclerosis. SSc patients frequently have fatigue as a characteristic feature of their disease and fatigue negatively impacts quality of life (Haythornthwaite 2003, Richards 2003, Suarez-Almazor 2007, Basta 2017). The prevalence of fatigue among SSc patients is 75%, with 61% ranking fatigue among their top three most distressing complaints. Fatigue is also associated with poor sleep quality, greater pain and...
