Complement Regulatory Proteins Expression and Clinical Response in Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) Patients Treated With Rituximab

NCT01096069 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 10

Last updated 2010-03-30

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

There is a correlation between the CD55, CD59, CD35 and CD46 expression on B lymphocytes of patients before and after treatment with rituximab and the level of depletion and repopulation time for these cells. The theoretical rationale of the study assumes that the correlation, if any, will be a negative correlation. However, the hypothesis of positive correlation (two-tailed test) will also be tested.
