May 11, 2018 updated by: Min Yang, Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University

Long-term Prognosis and Quality of Life in Early Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients Treated by 2015 ACR Guideline (LELAND): a Multicenter Prospective Observational Study in Southern China

To focus on the real world treat-to-target rate of early rheumatoid arthritis patients who will be treated according to the 2015 American College of Rheumatology Guideline for the Treatment of RA.

To explore the factors which influence the treat-to-target outcome.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Unknown

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Resent study showed that rapid progression of cartilage and bone damage could happen on the early state of RA patients, so the clinicians should try the best to stop the trend, such as early diagnosis, early treatment and treat-to-target. But only half of the RA patients could reach low disease activity in the whole world and about 10% in China.

The investigators enroll early RA patients who are treated according to the 2015 American College of Rheumatology Guideline. The relevant data are collected and analyzed by the statistician including clinical data, imaging markers, blood samples and patient-reported outcomes every 3 months.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
the proportion of patients achieving treat to target
Time Frame: 2018-4-25 to 2022-7-1
calculate the proportion of patients achieving treat to target according to the change of DAS28 score

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
