NCT07069426
Individuals who sustain musculoskeletal injuries (MSKI) can experience a rapid loss of muscle mass due to declines in muscle loading and activation that occur post-injury (i.e., disuse atrophy). Loss of muscle under these conditions is attributed to a persistent negative net muscle protein balance (muscle protein synthesis \[MPS\] \< muscle protein breakdown) that results, in part, from declines in postprandial MPS (i.e., anabolic resistance). Nutritional interventions that enhance postprandial MPS may be used to overcome disuse-induced anabolic resistance and preserve muscle mass to accelerate recovery and improve recovery outcomes. While supplemental protein has been explored as a potential countermeasure to disuse-induce anabolic resistance, the observed efficacy of such interventions has been mixed. Equivocal findings across studies may be attributed, in part, to an insufficient understanding of what constitutes an effective protein-based intervention. Importantly, no study to date has determined an optimal protein dose for overcoming disuse-induce anabolic resistance, or if there is a threshold for maximally stimulating postprandial MPS under disuse conditions. Therefore, the objective of this work is to determine rates of MPS at rest and in response to standard (20 g) or high (40 g) doses of whey protein during knee immobilization (DISUSE) compared with standard activity (ACTIVE)
NCT03104374
This is a Phase 3 multicenter study that included two periods. Period 1 was designed to compare the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of upadacitinib 15 mg once daily (QD) and 30 mg QD versus placebo in participants with moderately to severely active Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) who had an inadequate response to Biological Disease Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drug (bDMARDs). Period 2 evaluated the safety, tolerability and efficacy of upadacitinib 15 mg QD and 30 mg QD in subjects with PsA who completed Period 1.
