1 HORIZON SCANNING: PAEDIATRIC RHEUMATOLOGY UPATE SEPTEMBER 2011 The object of these Horizon Scanning reports is to highlight recently completed and ongoing clinical trials, research recommendations and new and emerging health technologies. After feedback from a pilot Horizon Scanning exercise and following consultation with the MCRN/ARC Paediatric Rheumatology CSG lead, these Horizon Scanning reports only highlight ongoing clinical trials or those completed since This follow up report includes trials registered since February 2011 for seven Topic Specific Groups (TSGs): Bone Health; Juvenile Dermatomyositis; Juvenile- Idiopathic Arthritis and JIA-associated Uveitis; Juvenile-onset Systemic Lupus Erythematosus; Noninflammatory Musculoskeletal Disorders; Scleroderma and Vasculitis. Details of all material included in this report are shown in the appendix, sorted according to TSG. Further details of each study can be obtained via the links given to the relevant webpage.

2 SEARCH METHODOLOGY Databases Searched Clinical trials databases: MetaRegister of Clinical Trials (active registers); ClinicalTrials.gov; UKCRN Portfolio Database; Australia and New Zealand Horizon Scanning Network (ANZHSN); MRC Clinical Trials Unit; Nederlands Trials Register; German Clinical Trials Register; University Hospital Medical Information Network (UMIN); Japan Medical Association Center for Clinical Trials Register (JMA- CTR); Japan Pharmaceutical Information Center Clinical Trials Register. Keywords searched Keywords and phrases were used separately or in combination; truncation was used where possible/applicable. Bone health: Calcinosis, Hypercalc[a]emia, Hyperphosphatasemia, Hypocalc[a]emia, Hypophosphatasia, Juvenile Paget s disease, McCune Albright syndrome, Osteop[a]enia; Osteogenesis imperfecta, Osteopetrosis, Osteoporosis (juvenile idiopathic, glucocorticoidinduced/steroid-induced, disuse, pseudoglioma syndrome), Polyostotic fibrous dysplasia, Rickets (vitamin D deficiency, hypophosphataemic; pseudo-d deficiency; hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets), Skeletal dysplasia; Fracture (spinal/vertebral); Dermatomyositis; JIA, Juvenile idiopathic arthritis, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile chronic arthritis, Oligoarticular juvenile arthritis, Pauciarticular juvenile arthritis, Polyarticular juvenile arthritis, Still's disease, JIA associated uveitis, Idiopathic uveitis, Autoimmune uveitis; [Juvenile-onset] systemic lupus erythematosus, SLE, lupus nephritis; Non-inflammatory: Chronic pain syndrome, Complex regional pain syndrome, Ehlers-Danlos, Fibromyalgia, Hypermobility, Joint Hypermobility Syndrome; Scleroderma, Systemic sclerosis; Vasculitis, Kawasaki Disease, Mucocutaneous Lymph Node Syndrome, Behcet s Syndrome, Wegener s Granulomatosis, Microscopic Polyangiitis (MPA), Microscopic Polyarteritis, Polymyalgia rheumatic, Renal limited vasculitis, Cryoglobulinaemic vasculitis, Cogan s syndrome, Takayasu s Arteritis, Churg-Strauss Syndrome, Polyarteritis Nodosa, ANCA associated vasculitis, Henoch Schonlein purpura;, ren, hood, Adolescent, Juvenile, Paediatric. limits Trials registered since February are included in the feedback. Additional search terms, notably osteopenia and vertebral/spinal fracture, are included in the Bone Health TSG scan, therefore, any corresponding clinical trials ongoing or completed since January 2009 are included in the feedback. Age limits Studies involving individuals of 18 2 of age and under were included in the report. 1 The German Clinical Trials Registry was inaccessible for the last horizon scan in February 2011, therefore trails registered since July 2010 are included in this update. 2 with the exclusion of studies where the lowest age limit is 18 of age. 2

3 RESULTS A total of 37 completed or ongoing clinical trials were identified across the seven topic areas included within paediatric rheumatology. These are tabulated in the appendix divided into sections: A1: Bone Health (n = 9); A2: Dermatomyositis (n = 4); A3: Juvenile idiopathic arthritis and JIA-associated uveitis (n = 8); A4: Juvenile-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (n = 2); A5: Non-inflammatory (n = 6); A6: Scleroderma (n = 5); A7: Vasculitis (n = 3). For clarity each section is subdivided according to type of intervention: behavioural, education & exercise including physiotherapy; device; drug including biologics; procedure; other interventions including CAM; and no intervention, observational. Within each division, studies have been classified according to age group involved: 18 (child) or all age groups (child and adult (including senior)) or age group unknown, and then arranged in descending chronological order of anticipated completion-date. (Trials where the end date was not specified are included based update the last update status e.g. recruitment complete etc, and follow-up time points if applicable.) Unless otherwise stated in the table trials involve participants of both genders. Each clinical study has a weblink which can be followed for further details. Where there was uncertainty regarding whether a study should be included or not (usually due to its focus), the decision aired on the side of caution and the trial was included in the feedback. 3
