Efficacy and Safety of Sarilumab and Adalimumab Monotherapy in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis (SARIL-RA-MONARCH)

DAS28-ESR is a composite score that includes 4 variables: TJC (based on 28 joints); SJC (based on 28 joints); GH assessment by the participant assessed from the ACR RA core set questionnaire (participant global assessment) in 100 mm VAS; Marker of inflammation assessed by ESR in mm/hr. The DAS28-ESR score provides a number indicating the current disease activity of the RA. DAS28-ESR total score ranges from 2-10. A DAS28-ESR score above 5.1 means high disease activity, DAS28-ESR score below 3.2 indicates low disease activity and DAS28-ESR score below 2.6 means disease remission. Participants who discontinued treatment prior to Week 24 were analyzed as non-responders.

ACR responses are assessed with a composite rating scale of the ACR that includes 7 variables: TJC (68 joints); SJC (66 joints); levels of an acute phase reactant (C-reactive protein [CRP] level); participant's assessment of pain (measured on 0 [no pain]-100 mm [worst pain] VAS); participant's global assessment of disease activity (measured on 0 [no arthritis activity]-100 mm [maximal arthritis activity] VAS); physician's global assessment of disease activity (measured on 0 [no arthritis activity]-100 mm [maximal arthritis activity] VAS); participant's assessment of physical function (measured by Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index [HAQ-DI], with scoring range of 0 [better physical function] - 3 [worst physical function]). ACR50 is defined as achieving at least 50% improvement in both TJC and SJC, and at least 50% improvement in at least 3 of the 5 other assessments of the ACR. Participants were analyzed as non-responders from the time they discontinued treatment.

Physical function was assessed by HAQ-DI. It consisted of at least 2 or 3 questions per category, participant reported assessment of ability to perform tasks in 8 categories of daily living activities: dress/groom; arise; eat; walk; reach; grip; hygiene; and common activities over past week rated on a 4-point scale where 0 = no difficulty; 1 = some difficulty; 2 = much difficulty; 3 = unable to do. Overall score was computed as the sum of category scores and divided by the number of categories answered, ranging from 0 to 3, where 0 = no disability and 3 = unable to do, high-dependency disability. LS mean and SE at Week 24 were obtained using MMRM approach.

SF-36 is a generic 36-item questionnaire consisting of 8 sub-scales, measures health-related quality of life (HRQL) in the last 4 weeks covering 2 summary measures: PCS and mental component summary (MCS). PCS with 4 sub-scales: physical function, role limitations due to physical problems, pain, and general health perception; and MCS with 4 sub-scales: vitality, social function, role limitations due to emotional problems, and mental health. Participants self-report on items in a sub-scale that have between 2-6 choices per item using Likert-type responses (e.g. none of the time, some of the time, etc.). Summations of item scores of the same sub-scale give the sub-scale scores, which are transformed into a range from 0 to 100; 0= worst HRQL, 100=best HRQL. Both PCS and MCS range from 0-100 with higher scores indicating better physical and mental health. LS mean and SE at Week 24 by MMRM approach.

The FACIT-F is a 13-item questionnaire assessing fatigue where participants scored each item on a 5-point scale (0-4): 0=not at all, 1=a little bit, 2=somewhat, 3=quite a bit, 4=very much. A total score ranged from 0 to 52, where higher score corresponds to a lower level of fatigue. A positive change from baseline score indicates an improvement.

CDAI is a composite index constructed to measure clinical remission in RA that does not include a laboratory test, and is a numerical summation of 4 components: SJC (28 joints), TJC (28 joints), participant's global assessment of disease activity (in cm), and physician's global assessment of disease activity (in cm). Total score ranges from 0 to 76 with a lower score indicating less disease activity. Participants were analyzed as non-responders from the time they discontinued treatment.

EQ-5D-3L is a standardized, generic measure of health outcome. EQ-5D was designed for self-completion by participants. EQ-5D was specifically included to address concerns regarding the health economic impact of RA. EQ-5D-3L comprises of 5 questions on mobility, self-care, pain/discomfort, usual activities, and psychological status with 3 possible answers for each item (1=no problem, 2=moderate problems, 3=severe problems). The 5-dimensional 3-level systems are converted into a single index utility score between 0 to 1, where higher score indicates a better health state. EQ-5D-3L-VAS records the participant's self-rated health on a vertical VAS that allows the participants to indicate their health state that can range from 0 (worst imaginable) to 100 (best imaginable). LS mean and SE at Week 24 were obtained using MMRM approach.

RAID is a composite measure of the impact of RA on participants that takes into account 7 domains: pain, functional disability, fatigue, physical and emotional well-being, quality of sleep, and coping. The RAID is calculated based on 7 numerical rating scales (NRS) questions. Each NRS is assessed as a number between 0 and 10 that corresponds to the 7 domains. The values for each of these domains are weighed by participant assessment of relative importance and combined in a single score with a total score range of 0 (not affected, very good) to 10 (most affected). LS mean and SE at Week 24 were obtained using MMRM approach.

RA is associated with stiffness of joints, especially in the morning after prolonged stationery state. The degree of stiffness can be an indicator of disease severity. The severity of morning stiffness was assessed on a VAS scale from 0 mm (no problem) to 100 mm (major problem). LS mean and SE at Week 24 were obtained using MMRM approach.

ACR components were: TJC, SJC, physician global VAS, participant global VAS, pain VAS, HAQ-DI \& acute phase reactant (hs-CRP and ESR levels). 68 joints were assessed for tenderness (TJC scoring 0-68) and 66 joints for swelling (SJC scoring 0-66). The 66 SJC evaluated the following joints: temporomandibular, sternoclavicular, acromioclavicular, shoulder, elbow, wrist, metacarpophalangeal, interphalangeal of thumb, distal interphalangeal, proximal interphalangeal, knee, ankle mortise, ankle tarsus, metatarsophalangeal, interphalangeal of great toe, and proximal/distal interphalangeal of the toes. The TJC examined hip joints, in addition to the joints assessed for SJC. Increase in number of tender joints/swollen joints indicated severity. LS mean and SE at Week 24 were obtained using MMRM approach.

ACR components were: TJC, SJC, physician global VAS, participant global VAS, pain VAS, HAQ-DI \& acute phase reactant (hs-CRP and ESR levels).

Adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in participant who received investigational medicinal product (IMP) and did not necessarily had to have causal relationship with treatment. All reported AEs are TEAEs developed/worsened during 'on treatment period' (time from first dose of study drug up to day before first dose of open-label treatment for participants who completed 24-week randomized//DB treatment). SAEs were AEs resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly or a medically important event.
