Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients with moderately active RA that are treated with Etanercept will be studied. All patients enrolled should meet the usual prescribing criteria for Etanercept as per the Austrian SmPC and should be entered into the study at the investigator's discretion.

Who may be able to join

  • The patient is eligible to receive Etanercept treatment according to the Austrian SmPC.
  • The decision to treat the patient with Etanercept has been made independently by the physician and is clearly separated from the decision to include the patient in the study. The treatment decision was made in advance and is not dependent on the protocol.
  • The patient was informed about the study and gave his/her consent and signed an Independent Ethics Committee (IEC) submitted written Informed Consent form on use of the data.
  • The patient has moderately active RA, defined as a disease activity of CDAI >10 and ≤22 and/or DAS28 (CRP)>3.2 and ≤ 5.1

Who cannot join

  • Any contraindication according to the Austrian SmPC, which includes:
  • A hypersensitivity to any component of Etanercept, active tuberculosis or any other serious infection.
  • Patient has previously participated in this study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) Remission at Week 24

    CDAI is a simplified index for assessing the disease activity comprising of the swollen joint counts (SJC), tender/painful joint counts (TJC), participant's global assessment of disease activity (PtGA) and physician's global assessment of disease activity (PGA). CDAI is the numerical sum of 4 outcome parameters: SJC and TJC (based on 28-joint assessment), PtGA and PGA (assessed on 0-10 cm visual analog scale; higher scores indicated greater affection due to disease activity). CDAI total score = 0-76. CDAI less than equal to (<=) 2.8 indicates disease remission, greater than (>) 2.8 to 10 = low disease activity, greater than (>) 10 to 22 = moderate disease activity, and >22 = high disease activity. Percentage of participants with CDAI remission (score <=2.8) at Week 24 were reported.

    Measured: Week 24

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Percentage of Participants With Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) Status of Disease Activity at Week 12 and Week 52

    CDAI is a simplified index for assessing the disease activity comprising of the SJC, TJC, PtGA and PGA. CDAI is the numerical sum of 4 outcome parameters: SJC, TJC (based on 28-joint assessment), PtGA and PGA (assessed on 0-10 cm visual analog scale; higher scores indicated greater affection due to disease activity). CDAI total score = 0-76. CDAI <= 2.8 indicates disease remission, > 2.8 to 10 = low disease activity, >10 to 22 = moderate disease activity, and >22 = high disease activity. Percentage of participants with different type of CDAI status of disease activity (remission, low disease, moderate and high disease activity) at Week 12 and 52 were reported. Only those categories in which at least 1 participant had data were reported.

    Measured: Week 12 and Week 52

  2. Change From Baseline in Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) Scores at Week 12, Week 24 and Week 52

    CDAI is a simplified index for assessing the disease activity comprising of the SJC, TJC, PtGA and PGA. CDAI is the numerical sum of 4 outcome parameters: SJC, TJC (based on 28-joint assessment), PtGA and PGA (assessed on 0-10 cm visual analog scale; higher scores indicated greater affection due to disease activity). CDAI total score = 0-76. CDAI <= 2.8 indicates disease remission, > 2.8 to 10 = low disease activity, >10 to 22 = moderate disease activity, and >22 = high disease activity.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 12, Week 24, Week 52

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Rheumatoid Arthritis, run by Pfizer at 10 sites in Austria.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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 3 Dec 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites in Austria. 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 3 Dec 2018). 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?

Percentage of Participants With Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) Remission at Week 24 (time frame: Week 24). 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 3 Dec 2018.
