About this study

Official title: Patient Phenotypes and Treatment Pathways in Primary Sjogren's Syndrome: an International Cross-sectional Survey of Rheumatologists and Adult Primary Sjögren's Syndrome Patients With Systemic Involvement (Adelphi 2018 pSS Disease Specific Programme)

Sjogren's Syndrome is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by sicca (dryness) symptoms of the mouth and eyes. This autoimmune disease is less commonly studied and there are no licensed treatments to treat the underlying cause of disease and current management is based on clinical experience and/or small clinical studies. This study is based on DSP methodology, a multinational, cross-sectional, multi-sponsor survey of robust real-world data. DSP methodology collects quantitative market research data. The pSS DSP will survey a sample of approximately 230 to 325 rheumatologists and their prospectively consulting pSS subjects in France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the US. The data will be collected via physician interviews, physician workload questionnaires, detailed patient record forms (PRFs) to be completed by physicians, and a self-completion questionnaire by pSS subjects. The data collected using this method includes subjective and objective evidence, clinical information about individual patients, their disease and their treatment. This DSP will follow three key phases: preparatory phase, data collection phase and data processing/analysis phase.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • InterviewOther

    A one hour survey interview will be completed by the rheumatologists which will contain open and closed questions to probe physician perception and behaviors in relation to pSS management and treatment

  • PSC questionnaireOther

    All subjects for whom the physician completes a PRF will be required to complete a PSC questionnaire independently of their physician, immediately after consultation.

  • PRFsOther

    PRFs will be completed by the physicians for seven of their consulting pSS subjects.

What is being measured

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

  1. Physician reported categorization of pSS subjects

    The most common categorization of pSS subjects by rheumatologists will be described, alongside differences in humanistic and clinical burden of these categories.

    Measured: Baseline

  2. Statistically derived clusters of pSS subjects

    Subject clusters will be statistically derived from demographic, clinical and humanistic characteristics.

    Measured: Baseline

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Description of subject's journey

    Summary of subject's journeys from diagnosis to current management and treatment, including an overview of HCRU.

    Measured: As reported

  2. Drivers of physician and subject reported satisfaction

    Data for drivers of physician and subjects reported satisfaction with disease activity control and symptomatic relief will be derived.

    Measured: Baseline

  3. Level of concordance/discordance between physician and patient reported satisfaction

    Data for discordance/concordance between physicians and subjects across key measures will be derived.

    Measured: Baseline

  4. Differences in subjects journey, physician and subjects reported satisfaction amongst the clusters identified in the primary objective

    Differences in subjects journey, physician and subjects reported satisfaction amongst the clusters identified in the primary objective will be described.

    Measured: As reported / Baseline

  5. Physician experience of biologic therapy

    Physicians' experience of biologic therapy, and attitudes towards biologic therapy for subjects with pSS will be described.

    Measured: Baseline

  6. Physician perception of treatment targets

    Physicians' perceptions of treatment targets in pSS will be described.

    Measured: Baseline

  7. subjects attitude towards route of administration

    Proportion of subjects willing to take medication by type of administration route (oral/tablet, subcutaneous injection, intravenously) will be described.

    Measured: Baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Sjogren's Syndrome, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 10 inclusion and 1 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 23 Jan 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United Kingdom. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Physician reported categorization of pSS subjects (time frame: Baseline). 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.

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 23 Jan 2019.
