An Efficacy and Safety Study of Infliximab in Participants With Rheumatoid Arthritis
11 сентября 2013 г. обновлено: Xian-Janssen Pharmaceutical Ltd.
A Multi-Center, Pre-Marketing Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Infliximab Treatment on Rheumatoid Arthritis
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of iInfliximab plus methotrexate (MTX) in treatment of Rheumatoid rheumatoid Arthritis arthritis (RA) (it is an autoimmune disease that causes pain, swelling, stiffness and loss of function in joints) in participants with moderate disease versus participants with severe disease and to compare the efficacy and safety of the MTX subgroups.

Подробное описание
This is an open-label (all people know the identity of the intervention), multi-center (study conducted in more than 1 center), prospective (study following participants forward in time) study comparing the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) scores of participants with moderate RA (defined as having a score greater than 3.2, but less than 5.1 on the Disease Activity Score 28 [DAS 28]) to those participants with severe RA (defined as having a score greater than 5.1 on the DAS 28 score) disease while being treated with infliximab and MTX.
DAS evaluates RA activity by several parameters including the number of swollen and tender joints and the participant's own assessment of their pain.
Participants will receive infliximab 3 milligram (mg) per kilogram (kg) intravenous infusion (drug given into a vein) (over no less than 2 hours) at Weeks 0, 2, 6, 14 and 22 along oral MTX in a stable dose of 7.5 to 20 mg per week (equal to the dose used before participation in the study) for 22 Weeks.
Participants will have a follow-up visit on Week 26.
Efficacy will primarily be assessed by the percentage of participants obtaining ACR20, ACR50 and ACR70 response at Week 26.
Participants' safety will be assessed throughout the study.
