Sequential Medications AfteR TNFi Failure in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis
open to eligible people ages 2-17
This study is an open-label, randomized, multicenter trial that incorporates a multi-arm design comparing each of 3 non-TNFi (Tumor Necrosis Factor inhibitor) medications to a second TNFi (active control) within a sequential multiple assignment randomized trial design with 2 randomization stages corresponding with clinical decision points. The first randomization addresses whether each of the 3 non-TNFi medications is superior to treatment with a second TNFi. The second randomization allows identification of optimal sequential use of biologics (treatment strategies).

Adalimumab Dose Adjustment for Pediatric Uveitis Treatment Trial
Sorry, not yet accepting patients
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether children and young adults with well-controlled juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA)-associated uveitis or chronic anterior uveitis can safely take adalimumab (or biosimilar) injections less often while maintaining control of their disease. The main question it aims to answer is: can adalimumab/biosimilar injections be given less frequently without uveitis (eye inflammation) or arthritis (joint inflammation) returning? Researchers will compare adalimumab/biosimilar injection schedules of every 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, and 12 weeks to determine how injection frequency affects disease control. Participants will: - Take adalimumab/biosimilar injections every 2, 4, 8, or 12 weeks. - Attend study visits every 6 weeks over 24 weeks, with an additional follow-up visit at 48 weeks for checkups, tests, and questionnaires. - Keep a diary of how often they take adalimumab/biosimilar and other drugs they take for their uveitis/arthritis.
