Assessment of Pain Management in Rheumatoid Arthritis, Psoriatic Arthritis and Ankylosing Spondylitis Patients Who Are About to be Treated With Adalimumab

25 februari 2014 uppdaterad av: AbbVie (prior sponsor, Abbott)
The purpose of this study is to assess whether or not adalimumab (Humira®) can influence pain medication in participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and ankylosing spondylitis (AS) with or without comorbidities, which do not constitute a contraindication for adalimumab as stated in the released summary of product characteristics. Therefore it shall be evaluated if pain medication which is used in these participants is changed, reduced or stopped due to adalimumab treatment.

Studieöversikt

Detaljerad beskrivning

This is a non-interventional, observational study in which Humira (adalimumab) is prescribed in the usual manner in accordance with the terms of the local marketing authorization with regards to dose, population and indication. The assignment of the patient to a Humira-containing regimen has to be decided in advance and has to be current practice. The prescription of Humira is clearly separated from the decision to include the participant in this study.

Mean Medical Outcomes Study Short Form 36 (SF-36) Summary of Scales at Baseline, and Months 3, 6, 9, and 12
Tidsram: Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12
The SF-36 determines participants' overall quality of life by assessing 1) limitations in physical functioning due to health problems; 2) limitations in usual role because of physical health problems; 3) bodily pain; 4) general health perceptions; 5) vitality; 6) limitations in social functioning because of physical or emotional problems; 7) limitations in usual role due to emotional problems; and 8) general mental health. Items 1 to 4 primarily contribute to the physical component summary score (PCS) of the SF-36. Items 5 to 8 primarily contribute to the mental component summary score (MCS) of the SF-36. Scores on each item are summed and averaged (range = 0 [worst] to 100 [best ]). The standard recall period is 4 weeks. Increases from Baseline indicate improvement.

Mean Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (HAQ-DI) Scores at Baseline, and Months 3, 6, 9, and 12
Tidsram: Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12
The HAQ-DI is a participant-reported questionnaire. It consists of 20 questions referring to 8 domains: dressing/grooming, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip, and daily activities. Participants assessed their ability to do each task over the past week using the following response categories: without any difficulty (0); with some difficulty (1); with much difficulty (2); and unable to do (3). Scores on each task were summed and averaged to provide an overall score ranging from 0 to 3, where 0 represents no disability and 3 represents very severe, high-dependency disability. The minimal clinically important difference defined for the HAQ-DI is ≥0.22. HAQ remission, indicating normal physical function, is defined as HAQ-DI < 0.5.
Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12
Mean Rheumatoid Arthritis Disease Activity Index (RADAI) at Baseline, and Months 3, 6, 9, and 12
Tidsram: Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12
The RADAI is a questionnaire for patients used for measuring disease activity. The index consists of 6 questions. The items ask the participants about (1) global disease activity in the last 6 months, (2) disease activity in terms of current swollen and tender joints, (3) arthritis pain, (4) the current status of health, (5) duration of morning stiffness and (6) tender joints to be rated in a joint list. The joint list asks about pain in the left and right shoulders, elbows, wrists, fingers, hips, knees, ankles and toes. The first 4 items are all rated on a numeric rating scale from 0 to 10, where higher scores indicate more disease activity. The scores on the last 2 items range from 0 to 6 and 0 to 48, respectively, but are transformed on the same scale of 0 to 10. The RADAI total score is the sum of individual items divided by 5 (range 0-10), with a higher score signifying more disease activity.
Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12
Mean Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI) Scores at Baseline, and Months 3, 6, 9, and 12
Tidsram: Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12
The BASFI is a set of 10 questions designed to determine the degree of functional limitation in those with AS. The 10 questions were chosen with a major input from patients with AS. The first 8 questions consider activities related to functional anatomy. The final 2 questions assess the participants' ability to cope with everyday life. A visual analogue scale (with 0 being "easy" and 10 "impossible") is used to answer the questions on the test.
Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12
Mean Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) for Participants With Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) at Baseline, and Months 3, 6, 9, and 12
Tidsram: Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12
The BASDAI is used for measuring and evaluating disease activity in AS. This index consists of 6 questions pertaining to the 5 major symptoms of AS: fatigue, spinal pain, joint pain/swelling, areas of localized tenderness (or enthesitis, defined as inflammation of tendons and ligaments), duration of morning stiffness, severity of morning stiffness. A visual analogue scale ranging from 0 (none) to 10 (very severe) is used to answer the questions. The final BASDAI score averages the individual assessments for a final score range of 0-10 (0 being no problem and 10 being the worst problem).
Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12
Mean Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) at Baseline, and Months 3, 6, 9, and 12
Tidsram: Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12
The ESR is a practicable and sensitive but not specific parameter for measuring disease progression. By means of the ESR it can be generally distinguished between an active and nonactive rheumatic disease. The normal reference range is, as a rule, 0 to 10 mm/h for men and 0 to 15 mm/h for women. The higher the ESR value out of the normal range, the higher is the disease activity.
Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12
Mean C-reactive Protein (CRP) at Baseline, and Months 3, 6, 9, and 12
Tidsram: Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12
The CRP is an acute phase reactant plasma protein, normally produced by the liver, which is commonly used as an indirect measure of the extent and activity of an inflammation. The CRP normal reference range in the blood is, as a rule, from 0 to 1.0 mg/dL.
