New hope for kids with Arthritis-Related eye disease

NCT ID NCT01385826

Summary

This trial tested whether the drug adalimumab could reduce painful eye inflammation (uveitis) in children with juvenile arthritis. The study involved 34 children whose eye inflammation did not improve with standard steroid drops and methotrexate. For the first two months, half received adalimumab injections and half received placebo injections, then all children could receive adalimumab for up to a year to assess longer-term effects and safety.
