About this study
Official title: Patient Interviews to Better Understand Disease Experience and Unmet Treatment Needs in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, systemic autoimmune disease affecting the joints and can lead to joint pain, swelling, redness and stiffness and can cause deformity, loss of strength and immobility. This cross-sectional qualitative study aims to explore the burden of established RA by conducting semi-structured Concept elicitation (CE) interviews (60 minutes duration) and real-time data capture task. The conceptual model developed from this data will be used to support the development of GSK3196165, a recombinant human monoclonal antibody (mAb) targeted for the treatment of RA. The CE interviews will explore the subject experience of RA and will collect information about symptoms, disease impact on functioning and health related quality of life (HRQoL), and treatment experiences/impacts of the condition and the language used by subjects to describe them. Following the CE interview, subjects will be asked to complete a brief symptom ranking exercise where they will need to rank how bothersome each RA symptom is and how important it would be to improve with treatment on a 1-5 numerical rating scale (NRS). After the interviews, the real-time disease experience of subjects will be captured by the real-time data capture app-based activity over a period of 7 days. Approximately 30 English-speaking subjects from the United States (US) with RA who are inadequate responders of conventional synthetic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (csDMARDs) and/or (bDMARDs) will participate in the interviews and of these, 10 subjects will be offered the opportunity to participate in the real-time data capture sub study.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Numerical rating scaleOther
Following the concept elicitation interview, participants will be presented with a list of typical RA symptoms and asked to rank how bothersome each symptom is and how important it would be to improve with treatment on a 1-5 numerical rating scale (NRS).
Real-time data capture appOther
Real time data capture app is a smart-phone or web-based application which will allow the subjects to provide responses about their experience of HOA in real-time via varying video, audio, photographic and text forms using a study-specific application on their own smart device. Up to ten of the thirty interview participants can participate in the app sub study, which is voluntary.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Number of subjects with RA participating in CE interviews
CE interviews will be carried out to explore disease experience with respect to symptoms, impacts and treatment/surgical experiences.
Measured: 1 day
Secondary outcomes (2)
Analysis of RA experience by using real-time data data capture task
A subgroup of ten of the thirty subjects participating in the CE interviews will be asked to take part in the real-time data capture task over the course of 7 days and during this time a series of 5-7 questions/tasks will be asked to subjects via the application to explore the experience of the symptoms, HRQoL impacts, treatment of RA and any day-to-day variability that exists in real time'.
Measured: Up to 7 days
Preparation of the conceptual model
Data obtained from the CE interviews and real-time data capture as well as literature reviews will be used to develop a conceptual model for RA. Symptom, impact, and treatment concepts which have been identified will be grouped into domains and displayed visually and any identified relationships or trends between domains will also be included in the model. A contents key will be developed to show the source of the concept.
Measured: Up to 7 days
