Neither group, or both, names a comparator, so the groups keep ClinicalTrials.gov's order.
| Group | Title | Description | With the outcome | Analysed | ClinicalTrials.gov code |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Group 1 | Abatacept + Standard Treatment | Participants receive subcutaneous abatacept (125 mg weekly) in combination with standard treatment for the first 24 weeks (6 months) during the double-blind period. Participants continue to receive abatacept in the Open-Label and Long-Term Open Label Periods. | 64 | 75 | OG000 |
| Group 2 | Placebo + Standard Treatment | Participants receive placebo (to match subcutaneous abatacept) in combination with standard treatment for the first 24 weeks (6 months) during the double-blind period. Participants then switch from placebo to abatacept in the Open-Label and Long-Term Open Label Periods. | 39 | 63 | OG001 |

Outcome
- Type
- SECONDARY
- Title
- Number of Participants Experiencing Adverse Events (AE) in the Cumulative Abatacept Period
- Description
The number of treated participants experiencing an adverse event. An Adverse Event (AE) is defined as any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a preexisting medical condition in participants administered a study drug and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment.
- Time frame
- From first dose up to approximately 56 days post last dose (up to approximately 54 months)
- Population
All participants who received at least one dose of abatacept. Participants are summarized under their actual Double-Blind treatment groups, but during the Open-Label and Long-Term Extension Periods all participants received abatacept.
