ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryDisease Activity Score in 28 Joints (DAS28) Based on Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR)Baseline, Months 12, 24, 36, 48, and 60, and Last Observed Value
DAS28 is a composite measure of disease activity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. It is calculated on the basis of tender and swollen joint counts (each assessed in 28 joints), the patient's ESR, and the patient's subjective assessment of disease activity (assessed using a 100-mm visual analog scale). A DAS28 less than 3.2 indicates low disease activity and a DAS28 greater than 5.1 indicates high disease activity; there is no absolute range of scores due to inter-patient variability in ESR.
PrimaryAmerican College of Rheumatology 20% (ACR20) Response RateBaseline, Months 12, 24, 36, 48, and 60, and Last Observed Value
ACR20 response is a 20% or better improvement from Baseline in tender joint count, swollen joint count, and at least 3 of the following 5 parameters: patient's assessment of pain, patient's global assessment of disease activity, physician's global assessment of disease activity, Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability Index (HAQ-DI), and C-reactive protein. Response was calculated based on values at Baseline of NCT00448383 (Study M02-497).
PrimaryAmerican College of Rheumatology 50% (ACR50) Response RateBaseline, Months 12, 24, 36, 48, and 60, and Last Observed Value
ACR50 response is a 50% or better improvement from Baseline in tender joint count, swollen joint count, and at least 3 of the following 5 parameters: patient's assessment of pain, patient's global assessment of disease activity, physician's global assessment of disease activity, Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability Index (HAQ-DI), and C-reactive protein. Response was calculated based on values at Baseline of NCT00448383 (Study M02-497).
PrimaryAmerican College of Rheumatology 70% (ACR70) Response RateBaseline, Months 12, 24, 36, 48, and 60, and Last Observed Value
ACR70 response is a 70% or better improvement from Baseline in tender joint count, swollen joint count, and at least 3 of the following 5 parameters: patient's assessment of pain, patient's global assessment of disease activity, physician's global assessment of disease activity, Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability Index (HAQ-DI), and C-reactive protein. Response was calculated based on values at Baseline of NCT00448383 (Study M02-497).
PrimaryChange From Baseline in the Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability Index (HAQ-DI)Baseline, Months 12, 24, 36, 48, and 60, and Last Observed Value
HAQ-DI is a composite measure of physical function calculated on the basis of 20 questions in 8 domains (dressing, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip, and common activities), each evaluated on a 4-point scale ranging from 0 (without any difficulty) to 3 (unable to do). HAQ-DI score is the sum of worst scores in each domain divided by the number of domains answered, and ranges from 0 (no difficulty) to 3 (unable to do). A mean change of -0.22 is considered the minimum clinically important change. Mean change in HAQ-DI was calculated from Baseline of NCT00448383 (Study M02-497).
