What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • etanercept (genetical recombination)Drug

    Also called Enbrel

    10 to 25 mg of etanercept (genetical recombination) reconstituted in 1 mL of water for injection (JP) administered twice weekly as a subcutaneous injection or 25 to 50 mg of etanercept (genetical recombination) administered once weekly as a subcutaneous injection, are usually the recommended dose for adults.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Participants With Treatment Related Adverse Events

    Adverse events are defined as any unfavorable events, including clinically significant abnormal changes in laboratory test values, which develop in participants after the administration of etanercept regardless of the causal relationship to etanercept. The causal relationship between an adverse event and etanercept was evaluated by the sponsor.

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. Disease Activity Score of 28 Joints (DAS28: 4/Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate [ESR])

    DAS28-4 (ESR) was calculated from SJC and TJC using 28 joints count, ESR (mm/hour) and PtGA of disease activity (participant rated arthritis activity assessment). Total score range: 0-9.4, higher score=more disease activity. DAS28-4 (ESR) <= 3.2 implied low disease activity and >3.2 to 5.1 implied moderate to high disease activity, and DAS28-4 (ESR) <2.6 = remission.

    DAS28-3 (ESR) was calculated from SJC and TJC using 28 joints count, ESR (mm/hour). Total score range: 0-9.4, higher score=more disease activity. DAS28-3 (ESR) <= 3.2 implied low disease activity and >3.2 to 5.1 implied moderate to high disease activity, and DAS28-3 (ESR) <2.6 = remission.

    Measured: 12 weeks

  3. Change in Disease Activity Score of 28 Joints (DAS28: 4/Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate [ESR])

    DAS28-4 (ESR) was calculated from SJC and TJC using 28 joints count, ESR (mm/hour) and PtGA of disease activity (participant rated arthritis activity assessment). Total score range: 0-9.4, higher score=more disease activity. DAS28-4 (ESR) <= 3.2 implied low disease activity and >3.2 to 5.1 implied moderate to high disease activity, and DAS28-4 (ESR) <2.6 = remission.

    DAS28-3 (ESR) was calculated from SJC and TJC using 28 joints count, ESR (mm/hour). Total score range: 0-9.4, higher score=more disease activity. DAS28-3 (ESR) <= 3.2 implied low disease activity and >3.2 to 5.1 implied moderate to high disease activity, and DAS28-3 (ESR) <2.6 = remission.

    Measured: 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Physician's Assessment of Clinical Effect of Etanercept on the Symptoms of Rheumatoid Arthritis and Change in Laboratory Values

    On the basis of how well the clinical symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis were controlled at baseline, the physician assessed the clinical effect of etanercept in two grades: "effective" or "ineffective". To assess the clinical efficacy of etanercept, the degrees of the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis and laboratory test values were compared between at baseline and at the 12th week of the investigation.

    Measured: 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Arthritis and Rheumatoid, run by Pfizer at 1 site in Japan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Feb 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Japan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 23 Feb 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Participants With Treatment Related Adverse Events (time frame: 12 weeks). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Feb 2017.
