A Research Study to Evaluate the Effects of a New Oral Medicine Called Cenerimod in Adults With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
The goal of this clinical trial is to see how well cenerimod is in reducing symptoms of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus in adult patients with moderate to severe symptoms. The main questions it aims to answer are: - How well cenerimod works on top of the treatment already being administered. - How safe cenerimod is for adult patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus. Researchers will compare one dose of cenerimod and a placebo to see how well cenerimod works when it is added to the treatment already being administered. In this research study approximately 210 participants will receive cenerimod and approximately...

Arthritis Ease Study
The goal of this clinical trial is to test using a pain and anxiety reduction phone application in older adults with knee osteoarthritis and chronic pain. The main questions it seeks to answer are: 1. How acceptable is using a phone app in older adults with knee osteoarthritis and chronic pain to lower pain, pain stress and reduce fear of movement? 2. What are the effects of combining biofeedback with a virtual reality nature scene and paced breath training to increase heart rate variability on pain and anxiety among older adults with knee osteoarthritis? 3. What is the role of self-regulation and...

A Safety and Efficacy Study of Dazodalibep in Participants With Sjögren's Syndrome (SS) With Moderate-to-Severe Symptom State
Primary Objective: To evaluate the effect of dazodalibep on patient-reported symptoms of SS in participants with moderate-to-severe symptom state Secondary Objectives: 1. To evaluate the effect of dazodalibep on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in participants with SS. 2. To evaluate the effect of dazodalibep on measures of systemic activity, PROs, and salivary flow in participants with SS 3. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple doses of dazodalibep in participants with SS

A Sequenced Strategy for Improving Outcomes in People With Knee Osteoarthritis Pain
There is an urgent public health need to reduce reliance on opioids for effective long-term pain management, particularly in knee osteoarthritis (KOA). This effectiveness trial will compare commonly recommended treatments to reduce pain and functional limitations in KOA.These results will lead to improved patient selection for treatment and inform evidence based guidelines by offering well-tested, effective, non-surgical alternatives.

A Single Dose of BRTX 100 for Patients With Chronic Lumbar Disc Disease (cLDD)
This is a double-blind, saline-controlled, and randomized study with blinded assessments using a single dose. Subjects that have a current diagnosis of chronic lumbar disc disease and meet eligibility criteria will be enrolled. Chronic lumbar disc disease is defined as back and/or radicular pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history, physical examination, and radiographic measures such as computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), plain film, myelography, discography, or other acceptable means.

Assessing Symptom and Mood Dynamics in Pain Using the Smartphone Application SOMA
This study relies on the use of a smartphone application (SOMA) that the investigators developed for tracking daily mood, pain, and activity status in acute pain, chronic pain, and healthy controls over four months.The primary goal of the study is to use fluctuations in daily self-reported symptoms to identify computational predictors of acute-chronic pain transition, pain recovery, and/or chronic pain maintenance or flareups. The general study will include anyone with current acute or chronic pain, while a smaller sub-study will use a subset of patients from the chronic pain group who have been diagnosed with chronic low back pain,...

Assessing the Impact of Exercise Based Intensive Interdisciplinary Pain Treatment (IIPT) on Endogenous Pain Modulation in Youth With Chronic Pain Syndromes
This work will answer two critical questions: 1) Does intensive interdisciplinary pain treatment (IIPT) involving aerobic exercise help normalize pain processing in youth with chronic pain syndromes and 2) Are aerobic fitness levels and the ability to modulate pain inter-related? Currently, medications are ineffective for improving pain and disability in youth with chronic pain syndromes and identifying non-pharmacologic treatments, such as IIPT, that help strengthen the nervous system's ability to modulate or turn pain signals down will improve outcomes and quality of life for youth suffering from chronic pain. This study will...
