14. listopadu 2016 aktualizováno: Hoffmann-La Roche
A Multi-Center Observational Study on the Use of Biologic Drugs as Monotherapy or Combination With DMARDs in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis in Italian Clinical Practice (ARMONIA)
This is a multicenter observational study in patients with rheumatoid arthritis in routine clinical practice in Italy.
In the retrospective Part 1 of the study, clinical and demographic factors associated with the use of a biologic drug in monotherapy as compared to therapy in combination with Disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) will be evaluated.
In the retrospective/prospective Part 2 of the study, efficacy and safety of the use of RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) in monotherapy will be evaluated.
Patients will be followed for up to18 months.

Phase II: Percentage of Participants With Delta HAQ >= 0.21 at Months 3, 6, 12, and 18
Časové okno: At Months 3, 6, 12, and 18
|
Percentage of participants with change in HAQ (Delta HAQ) of >= 0.21 after 3, 6, 12 and 18 months from the first infusion with tocilizumab as monotherapy are reported.
The HAQ consisted of 20 questions in eight domains (dressing/grooming, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip, and daily activities) rated on a 4-point scale, where 0 (equals) = without difficulties; 1= with some difficulties; 2= with great difficulties; and 3= unable to perform these actions at all.
The HAQ-DI scale was an average of all the scores and ranged from 0 (mild disability) to 3 (severe disability), where higher scores represents higher disease activity.

Phase II: Number of Participants With Any Adverse Events, Any Serious Adverse Events, Adverse Events of Special Interest, and Tubercular Events
Časové okno: Up to 18 months

An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product and which did not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.
An AE could therefore be any unfavorable or unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product.
Pre-existing conditions that worsened during the study were reported as AE.
A serious adverse event (SAE) is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose results in death is life threatening, requires hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization, or results in disability/incapacity, or congenital anomaly/birth defect.
The AE were captured only for Phase II.
