The Generic name of this drug

Treatment Summary

Tacrolimus (also known as FK-506 or Fujimycin) is an immunosuppressive drug used to prevent organ rejection after transplantation. It can also be used topically to treat severe atopic dermatitis, severe refractory uveitis after bone marrow transplants, and vitiligo. Tacrolimus was discovered in 1984 in a Japanese soil sample containing the bacteria Streptomyces tsukubaensis. It works by binding to the FKBP-12 protein, which inhibits the activity of an enzyme called calcineurin, which in turn reduces the activity of the immune

Effectiveness

How Envarsus Xr Affects Patients

Tacrolimus works by blocking a protein (FKBP-12) in the body that helps activate T-Lymphocyte cells and the production of IL-2. This helps to reduce the rate of organ rejection when compared to cyclosporine. It is also used to treat eczema and other skin conditions, as it helps reduce inflammation in a similar way to steroids, although it is not as powerful. An important benefit is that it can be used directly on the face, while topical steroids cannot, as they can thin the skin on the face. On other parts of the body, topical steroids are usually the better choice

How Envarsus Xr works in the body

The exact way tacrolimus works to treat atopic dermatitis is unknown. Research has found that tacrolimus blocks T-lymphocyte activation by binding to a protein in cells and forming a complex. This complex stops the production of certain proteins that are involved in T-cell activation and the release of other proteins from skin cells. It also reduces the number of receptors on a type of cell found in the skin.

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What are the side effects of ENVARSUS XR?

"If you experience any of the following side effects, tell your doctor or pharmacist immediately: shaking, headache, diarrhea, nausea/vomiting, upset stomach,ordon sleeping."

Answered by AI

What is the difference between tacrolimus and Envarsus?

"ENVARSUS XR has better control over the release and absorption of tacrolimus than any other tacrolimus formulation. The MeltDose® Technology used to create ENVARSUS XR is a proprietary process that results in a controlled release of tacrolimus over a 24 hour period. This once-daily formulation overcomes the negative characteristics of other tacrolimus formulations."

Answered by AI

What is ENVARSUS XR used for?

"ENVARSUS XR helps to prevent organ rejection by reducing the body's ability to reject transplanted organs. It is an immunosuppressant, which is a type of medicine that reduces the body's immune response."

Answered by AI

Is there a generic for Envarsus?

"There is no other tacrolimus medicine that can be used as a substitute for ENVARSUS XR. The dosage for ENVARSUS XR is different from other tacrolimus products, so if you have been prescribed this medicine, make sure it is the only tacrolimus medicine you are taking."

Ruxolitinib for T-Cell Lymphoma

18+
All Sexes
Columbus, OH

This phase II trial tests how well ruxolitinib as a maintenance medication works to prevent relapse and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) for patients who have undergone stem cell transplantation for T-cell lymphoma. GVHD is a common problem that may occur after a blood stem cell transplant. The "graft" is the donor blood cells that patients get during the transplant. The "host" is the person receiving the cells. GVHD is when the donor graft attacks and damages some of the transplant recipient's tissues. Ruxolitinib is a type of drug called a Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor which works by decreasing the immune response of cells in the body. It is also a cancer growth blocker that blocks the growth factors that trigger the cancer cells to divide and grow. Ruxolitinib works by blocking a gene, called JAK2, that is important in the production of cancer cells.

Steroids for Rheumatoid Arthritis

18+
All Sexes
Toronto, Canada

People living with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) often experience flares-periods where their symptoms suddenly get worse. These flares can cause significant pain, make it harder to move and do daily activities, and lower overall quality of life. Doctors often treat flares with medications called glucocorticoids (GCs), which reduce inflammation. These medications can be taken by mouth (oral/PO) or given as a single injection into the muscle (intramuscular/IM). However, it's not clear which option works better from the patient's point of view-especially when it comes to relief of symptoms, improvements in function, and satisfaction with treatment. Most research so far has focused on how well the drugs control the disease, rather than how they impact the patient's overall experience. Research Questions: 1. Does a single GC injection work just as well as taking pills over a few weeks in improving symptoms reported by patients? 2. How do the two treatments compare in terms of symptom relief, ability to function, and patient satisfaction? 3. What do patients think and feel about using GCs to treat RA flares? What the Investigators Think: The investigators believe that a one-time GC injection is just as good as taking pills for a few weeks when it comes to managing RA flares. In fact, the injection might even be safer and preferred by patients. What the Investigators are Doing: The investigators will study 220 adults with RA who are currently having a flare (with at least 3 swollen and tender joints). These patients will be recruited from rheumatology clinics at the University of Toronto and must not have used GCs in the past month. They will be randomly assigned to receive either: A single injection (Methylprednisolone 120 mg), or Oral pills (Prednisone starting at 15 mg daily and tapering down over 3 weeks). The main thing the investigators will look at is how much better patients feel after 6 weeks, based on a questionnaire designed to measure RA flares. The investigators will also look at how well they function, how satisfied they are with the treatment, and whether they had any side effects. In addition, 20 patients (10 from each group) will be interviewed to understand their experiences and opinions about flare treatment in more detail. Why This Is Possible: The investigators have already surveyed University of Toronto rheumatologists who support the idea and provided input on study design. The investigators have also partnered with experts in research methods, national arthritis organizations, and patient groups to make sure the study is relevant and meaningful. Ethics approval has been obtained. Why It Matters: RA flares can have a major impact on people's lives. While current treatments help control inflammation, the investigators need to better understand how these treatments affect people from their own perspective. This study will shift the focus to what matters most to patients, helping doctors and patients choose the best treatment based not only on medical results but also on the patient's experience. This could lead to more effective and personalized care for people living with RA.

New York, NY

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if peer coaching works to reduce levels of anxiety and/or depression in adults diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). The main questions it aims to answer are: Do people with RA who complete the intervention with a peer coach have lower levels of anxiety and/or depression at 6 months from baseline? Do people with RA who complete the intervention with a peer coach have lower levels of anxiety and/or depression at 6 months compared to those in the control arm? Researchers will compare the peer coaching intervention to an active-control arm (where people without RA coach participants on general health and nutrition topics) to see if peer coaching works to reduce anxiety and/or depression. Participants will meet with a coach every week for 9 weeks and complete several surveys before, during and after the intervention

The goal of this trial is to learn if an interactive evidence-based educational outreach visits to clinicians who prescribe biologics change prescribing of biosimilar medications. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Do educational outreach visits lead to a higher number of prescriptions for biosimilar versions of adalimumab? 2. Do in-person or virtual visits work better? Researchers will compare clinicians offered the educational outreach visit to those who are not offered the visit to see if there is a difference in prescribing of biosimilar versions of adalimumab instead of the original brand-name version. Participants will be offered the chance to meet with a trained clinician who will provide educational information tailored to their knowledge and attitudes on the topic. They will also be provided an educational brochure and patient educational materials.

The At-Home ULTRA Study will evaluate performance of the MINI system as indicated for the treatment of adults with active, moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis who are inadequate responders or are intolerant to conventional synthetic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (csDMARDs), biologic DMARDs (bDMARDs), or targeted synthetic DMARDs (tsDMARDs). The non-invasive study device delivers ultrasound stimulation to the spleen to reduce inflammation. The study will enroll at least 60 participants at up to 8 sites. There will be three arms consisting of two active stimulation groups (treatment) and one non-active stimulation group (sham-control). After completing the double-blinded primary endpoint assessment period at Week 12, there will be a one-way crossover of control participants to active stimulation and an additional 12 week follow-up with all participants to evaluate long-term outcomes.
