About this study

Official title: A Post-Marketing Surveillance Study on the Safety and Effectiveness of Golimumab (Simponi) Among Adult Filipino Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis, Psoriatic Arthritis and Ankylosing Spondylitis

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of golimumab for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis among Filipino patients.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label (all people know the identity of the intervention), multi-center (study conducted at multiple sites), observational study (study in which the investigators/ physicians observe the patients and measure their outcomes) to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of golimumab for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis among Filipino patients.

The study will enroll approximately 50 patients who would use golimumab with a dosing regimen stipulated in the product insert. As this is an observational study, assessment of patients will be based on the accepted clinical practice in the Philippines. Patients will be monitored from baseline and every 4 weeks thereafter for a period of 24 weeks. Safety evaluations for adverse events, clinical laboratory tests, physical examination, concomitant medications, and co-morbid conditions will be monitored throughout the study. The total study will be conducted for 3 years and duration of treatment will be for 24 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of patients with incidence of adverse events

    Measured: From the date of first exposure of study medication until 30 days after the last exposure of the patient to the study medication, as assessed for 3 years

  2. Number of patients with incidence of discontinuation of study medication due to adverse events

    Measured: From the date of first exposure of study medication until 30 days after the last exposure of the patient to the study medication, as assessed for 3 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of patients who would show improvement using the Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) Score

    HAQ will include 2 scales: (a) scale for evaluating disability (score range, 0 [without any difficulty] to 3 [unable to do]) and (b) Visual Analogue Scale for evaluating discomfort and pain (score range, 0 [no pain] to 100 [severe pain]).

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24

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 patients with incidence of adverse events (time frame: From the date of first exposure of study medication until 30 days after the last exposure of the patient to the study medication, as assessed for 3 years). The study lists 2 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.
