简要总结

The research objective of the pilot study is to assess early feasibility of safety and efficacy of spleen ultrasound stimulation in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in a blinded and randomized controlled trial. Specific Aims include:

  • Measure RA disease activity and functional/biomarker metrics during and after a 2- week course of spleen-directed daily ultrasound treatments (within-arm and between-arm assessments); and
  • Monitor adverse events during and after daily ultrasound treatments.

入选标准

  • Males and Females aged 18 and over.
  • Must carry a diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis, as defined by the American College of Rheumatology in 2010: (https://www.rheumatology.org/Portals/0/Files/2010_revised_criteria_classification_ra.pdf).
  • Classification as "definite RA" is based on the confirmed presence of synovitis in at least one joint, absence of an alternative diagnosis that better explains the synovitis, and achievement of a total score of 6 or greater (of a possible 10) from the individual scores in 4 domains: number and site of involved joints (score range 0-5), serologic abnormality (score range 0-3), elevated acute-phase response (score range 0-1), and symptom duration (2 levels; range 0-1).
  • Exhibiting symptoms or signs of inadequate disease control according to one of 2 measures:
  • Modified HAQ score of greater than 0.3 and DAS28-CRP greater than 3.2 (http://www.phusewiki.org/wiki/index.php?title=Disease_Activity_Score_-_CRP_(DAS-CRP).
  • Participants should have home access to broadband internet, such that online video conversations can occur with study personnel via study-provided personal digital assistive devices.

排除标准

  • Active bacterial or viral infection.
  • Pregnant women or presence of active malignancy.
  • Inability to perform minimal daily self-cares associated with feeding/dressing, according to HAQ.

结局指标

主要结局

Within-arm change in the Disease Activity Score (DAS-28) from baseline to end of treatment for treatment group.

时间窗: Day 0 (baseline) to Day 14 (end of treatment)

Full p-value of 0.05 will be allocated to Primary Outcome Measure and then if outcome is satisfied, the full p-value of 0.05 will be allocated to Secondary Outcome Measure.

次要结局

  • Between-arm change in the DAS-28 from baseline to end of treatment.(Day 0 (baseline) to Day 14 (end of treatment))
