From an etiology of disease perspective, a book on rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis(OA)isastrangecombination;however,fromaclinicaltrialperspec- tive,theprimaryendpointsareverysimilar.Theprimaryendpointsinbothdisease states are imaging and serum or urine biomarkers as recognized by the U.S. Food andDrugAdministration(FDA)TheFDAguidancedocumentsforOA[1]referto the RA guidance documents for the imaging end points [2]. During the writing of thisbook,theOsteoarthritisResearchSocietyInternational(OARSI)hasteamedup withtheOutcomesMeasuresandEvaluationinRheumatoidArthritisClinicalTrials (OMERACT)tocreatetheOMERACT-OARSIworkinggroup.Thisisanobvious recognitionofsimilarendpointsofthediseasestates. TheevolutionofthetrialsinRAandOAisataninterestingpointintime.There have been a number of successful therapeutic disease-modifying agents that have been developed and are now on the market for RA. The same is not true for OA, where at the time of writing there have been no successful FDA submissions for a disease modifying osteoarthritis anti-rheumatic drug (DMOARD), partly due to a lack of compounds and partly due to the challenges of running the trials. With RA,thereisnowastandardpatternandexpectationforperformingthesetrialswith threeanti-TNF-(cid:2)andoneanti-B-cellmonoclonalantibodyproductsonthemarket in a number of indications and many more to follow. For OA, the one large trial testingapotentialDMOAD,usingthebisphosphonaterisedronate[3],sadlymissed its primary end point. There are now a handful of studies evaluating glucosamine andchondroitinsulfateinboththeUnitedStatesandEurope[4,5].Thefirstresults are not only suggestive of a potential positive outcome but also more importantly demonstratethatwithcarefulcontrols,astudyinOAlookingatjointspacenarrow- ingcanbeachieved(seeChapter14).
