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
Incidence of Infections Which Requires Procedures, Medication or Hospitalization
Time Frame: From index date up to 180 days after last dose, with a maximum of 5 years (the end of the study period)
Infection was expected to occur after the exposure. An incident event occurring during the 180-day risk window was counted in the numerator for the analysis and the person-time accrued until the first incidence of an event, date of switch to another Rituximab product, the end of continuous treatment plus 180 days risk window, death, loss to follow up (the last date of the disease name data, medical practice data, or hospitalization data on DPC form 1 existing on the MDV database) or the end of study period. Additionally, two types of analyses based on propensity score were conducted.
From index date up to 180 days after last dose, with a maximum of 5 years (the end of the study period)

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.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Incidence of 'Pancytopenia, Leukocytopenia, Neutropenia, Agranulocytosis, Thrombocytopenia' (Cytopenias)

Additionally, two types of analyses based on propensity score were conducted.
From index date up to 180 days after last dose, with a maximum of 5 years (the end of the study period)
Incidence of Infusion Reactions
Time Frame: From index date up to next day after last dose, with a maximum of 5 years (the end of the study period)
Infusion reactions were expected to occur soon after the exposure. An incident event occurring during the period until the next day after the last dose was counted in the numerator for the analysis and the person-time accrued until the first incidence of an event, date of switch to another Rituximab product, the end of risk window which was until next day after last dose, death, or the end of study period. Additionally, two types of analyses based on propensity score were conducted.
From index date up to next day after last dose, with a maximum of 5 years (the end of the study period)
Incidence of Hepatic Function Disorder (HFD), Jaundice

Time Frame: From index date up to next day after last dose, with a maximum of 5 years (the end of the study period)

Incidence of Development of Malignant Tumor
Time Frame: From index date up to maximum of 5 years (the end of the study period)
The observation of a latent outcome event like a malignancy required consideration that the 180-day risk window may not be sufficient. This study analyzed malignancy differently compared to the acute outcome events by extending follow-up time until the first incident event, death, end of the study period, or loss to follow up (the last date of the disease name data, medical practice data, or hospitalization data on DPC form 1 existing on the MDV database).
