  29. Change From Baseline in Participant Assessment of Disease Activity

    The participant global assessment of disease activity are assessed with visual analog scales. The participant marks a vertical line through a horizontal line, where the beginning of the horizontal line represents the best situation, and the end of the horizontal line represents the very worst situation. The CRF collects the distance in millimeters from the start of the scale that is marked as well as the length of the scale in millimeters.

    In cases that the length of the scale is in less or more than 100 millimeters, then the participants measurement will be rescaled to the equivalent of 100 millimeters using the formula below:

    Rescale Measurement in mm = (measurement as reported on CRF in mm/length of the line on CRF in mm) * 100mm

    A negative score = participant assessment of disease activity has improved

    A positive score = participant assessment of disease activity has worsened

    The physician global assessment of disease activity are assessed with visual analog scales. The physician marks a vertical line through a horizontal line, where the beginning of the horizontal line represents the best situation, and the end of the horizontal line represents the very worst situation. The CRF collects the distance in millimeters from the start of the scale that is marked as well as the length of the scale in millimeters.

    In cases that the length of the scale is in less or more than 100 millimeters, then the participants measurement will be rescaled to the equivalent of 100 millimeters using the formula below:

    Rescale Measurement in mm = (measurement as reported on CRF in mm/length of the line on CRF in mm) * 100mm

    A negative score = physician assessment of disease activity has improved

    A positive score = physician assessment of disease activity has worsened

    Measured: Day 29, 57, 85, 113, 141, 169

  31. Change From Baseline in Patient Fatigue

    The mean change from baseline in patient fatigue using Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Fatigue assessment of disease activity at all measured time points up to Day 169.

    PROMIS Fatigue instruments 10 Questions ranging from a score 0 to 40. Sum of the values gives you the raw sum. The raw is inputted into this formula to give you the raw score:

    Raw Score = (Raw sum*number of items on the short form)/(Number of items that were actually answered)

    Raw score is translated to a T-Score using a table. T-Score is used as the final score.

    The T-score rescales the raw score into a standardized score with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation (SD) of 10. The standardized T-score is reported as the final score for each participant.

    A negative T Score = Better Prognosis A positive T Score = Worse prognosis

    Measured: Day 29, 57, 85, 113, 141, 169

  32. Change From Baseline in Female Sexual Function Using the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI)

    For the FSFI, is a 19 item instrument used for assessing key dimensions of female sexual function over the past 4 weeks with 6 domains being analyzed. The specific domains (desire, arousal, lubrication, orgasm, satisfaction, and pain) analyzed in the FSFI are scored on a scale ranging from 0 to 5, with higher scores indicating better performance. Domain scores are calculated by summing the scores of the individual questions that make up the domain and multiplying the sum by the factor in the table below. The full scale score is the sum of the six domain scores.

    Full Scale Score range: 2.0(minimum score) - 36.0 (maximum score)

    Negative Score = Reduced functioning Positive Score = Improved functioning

    Measured: Day 85, Day 169

  33. Change From Baseline in 36-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36)

    The SF-36 determines participants' overall quality of life by assessing 1) limitations in physical functioning due to health problems; 2) limitations in usual role because of physical health problems; 3) bodily pain; 4) general health perceptions; 5) vitality; 6) limitations in social functioning because of physical or emotional problems; 7) limitations in usual role due to emotional problems; and 8) general mental health.

    Scores on each item are summed and averaged (range: 0=worst to 100=best). Increases from baseline indicate improvement

    Measured: Day 85, Day 169

  34. Geometric Mean of Trough Concentration (Cmin) of Abatacept

    Geometric mean of trough concentration (Cmin) of abatacept at all measured time points.

    Measured: Day 29, 85, 113, 141, 169

  35. Percentage of Participants With a Positive Antibody Response

    Percentage of participants with at least one positive immunogenicity response up to Day 169 and during 3 months follow up (for participants who discontinue during the 6-months double-blind).

    Measured: Day 85 db, day 169 db, post treatment day 85

  36. Summary of Adverse Events: Double Blind Period

    Percentage of participants with adverse events, deaths, serious adverse events and adverse events leading to discontinuation

    Measured: Day 1 up to first dose of Open Label Treatment Period (OLTP) abatacept or up to 56 post last dose in double -blind for those not in OL.

  37. Laboratory Marked Abnormalities: Double Blind Period

    Laboratory values meeting the marked abnormality criteria

    Measured: Day 1 up to first dose of OL abatacept or up to 56 post last dose in double -blind for those not in OL.

  38. Percentage of Participants With a Positive Antibody Response in the Cumulative Abatacept Period

    Percentage of participants with at least one positive immunogenicity response On Day 365 (end of Open label treatment period) and day 85 post open label follow up period.

    Measured: Day 365, post open label treatment day 85

  39. Summary of Adverse Events: Cumulative Abatacept Period

    Percentage of participants with adverse events, deaths, serious adverse events and adverse events leading to discontinuation

    Measured: Day 365 and 3 months of follow up approximately 450 Days

  40. Laboratory Marked Abnormalities: Cumulative Abatacept Period

    Laboratory values meeting the marked abnormality criteria

    Measured: Day 365 and 3 months of follow up approximately 450 Days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Abatacept in people with Sjogrens Disease, run by Bristol-Myers Squibb at 71 sites in 13 countries.

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 3 inclusion and 4 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 10 Aug 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 71 sites in United States, Japan, France, Argentina, Australia and 8 more countries. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 2 Jan 2020). 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?

Change From Baseline in EULAR Sjogren's Syndrome Disease Activity Index (ESSDAI) (time frame: Day 169). 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 10 Aug 2020.
