Adalimumab subjects
Subjects starting Adalimumab treatment at time of enrollment.
|
- Change in Rheumatoid Arthritis-Work Instability Scale (RA-WIS) [ Time Frame: From Month 0 to Month 6 ]This is patient-reported assessment on the impact of adalimumab on the work status of RA patients.
- Change in Financial Loss [ Time Frame: From Month 0 to Month 6 ]This is patient reported assessment of financial burden of RA.
- Change in Rheumatoid Arthritis-Work Instability (RA-WIS) [ Time Frame: From Month 0 to Month 12, 18 and 24 ]This is patient-reported assessment on the impact of adalimumab on the work status of RA patients.
- Change in the Financial Loss [ Time Frame: From Month 0 to Month 12, 18 and 24 ]This is patient reported assessment of financial burden of RA.
- Change in patient pain [ Time Frame: From Month 0 to Month 24 ]Pain is assessed using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)
- Change in Tender Joint Count (TJC) [ Time Frame: From Month 0 to Month 24 ]This is assessed by the physician.
- Change in Disease Activity Score (DAS) 28 [ Time Frame: From Month 0 to Month 24 ]Disease activity assessment is done by the physician.
- Change in patient assessment of Global Disease Activity [ Time Frame: From Month 0 to Month 24 ]It is assessed using VAS.
- Change in Swollen Joint Count (SJC) [ Time Frame: From Month 0 to Month 24 ]This is assessed by the physician.
- Change in physician's assessment of Global Disease Activity [ Time Frame: From Month 0 to Month 24 ]It is assessed using VAS.
- Change in Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) [ Time Frame: From Month 0 to Month 24 ]This is patient reported functional assessment.
- Change in c-reactive protein (CRP)/erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) [ Time Frame: From Month 0 to Month 24 ]CRP/ESR values are measured as an inflammatory parameter. Low CRP and ESR values mean less inflammation.
- Rate of Remission per Disease Activity Scale (DAS) 28 [ Time Frame: From Month 0 to Month 24 ]The DAS28 is a validated index of rheumatoid arthritis disease activity. Scores on the DAS28 range from 0 to 10. A DAS28 score less than 2.6 indicates clinical remission.
- Rate of Achieving Low Disease Activity (LDA) per Disease Activity Score (DAS) 28 [ Time Frame: From Month 0 to Month 24 ]The DAS28 is a validated index of rheumatoid arthritis disease activity. Scores range from 0 to 10 with LDA defined as a score from 2.6 to < 3.2.
- Rate of Remission Per Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) [ Time Frame: From Month 0 to Month 24 ]The CDAI is used to evaluate disease activity in patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis.
- Rate of Achieving Low Disease Activity (LDA) per CDAI [ Time Frame: From Month 0 to Month 24 ]The CDAI is a composite index for assessing disease activity. The total CDAI score ranges from 0 to 78 with higher scores indicating higher disease activity. LDA was defined as a score from 2.8 to ≤ 10.
- Rate of Remission per Simplified Disease Activity Index (SDAI) [ Time Frame: From Month 0 to Month 24 ]The SDAI is a validated measure of rheumatoid arthritis disease activity. Scores on the SDAI range from 0 to 86 with a SDAI score ≤3.3 indicating clinical remission.
- Rate of Achieving Low Disease Activity (LDA) per SDAI [ Time Frame: From Month 0 to Month 24 ]The SDAI is a validated measure of rheumatoid arthritis disease activity. Scores on the SDAI range from 0 to 86 with a SDAI score <11 indicating LDA.
