Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants With Adverse EventsAdverse Events (AEs) were collected from informed consent to within 70 days following the last scheduled administration of Humira (up to 22 weeks)

An adverse event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. The investigator assessed the relationship of each event to the use of study drug as either related, possible, probably not, not related, or unassessable. A serious adverse event (SAE) is an event that results in death, is life-threatening, requires or prolongs hospitalization, results in a congenital anomaly, persistent or significant disability/incapacity or is an important medical event that, based on medical judgment, may jeopardize the subject and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent any of the outcomes listed above.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Changes in Active Joint Count From Baseline and 12 Weeks Post-TreatmentFrom the first administration (Day 1) to approximately 12 weeks (±4 weeks)

Active Joint Count will be assessed and collected by participating investigators in routine medical practice. Sixty-eight joints were assessed by physical examination. Active joints are defined as joints with positive results for tenderness, swelling, pain on passive motion, or limitation of passive motion. Higher scores represent higher disease activity.

Physician's Global Assessment of the DiseaseFrom the first administration (Day 1) to approximately 12 weeks (±4 weeks)

The Physician's global assessment of the disease assessment was evaluated as 'Improved,' 'Not changed,' 'Aggravated,' or 'Not assessable.'

Parent's Global Assessment for EffectivenessFrom the first administration (Day 1) to approximately 12 weeks (±4 weeks)

Parent's global assessment for effectiveness was evaluated as 'Improved,' 'Not changed,' 'Aggravated,' or 'Not assessable.'
