Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Change From Baseline in Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI) Score at Week 24

Time Frame: Baseline and week 24

The HAQ-DI is a patient-reported assessment of physical function that includes 20 items in eight categories representing a comprehensive set of functional activities, including dressing and grooming, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip and common daily activities. Patients were asked about their ability to complete these tasks in the past week using the following categories: without any difficulty (0); with some difficulty (1); with much difficulty (2); and unable to do (3). Scores on each task were summed and averaged to provide an overall score ranging from 0 (best) to 3 (worst), with a higher score representing a high-dependency disability.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Change From Baseline in Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI) Score at Week 12(Baseline and week 12)
  • Healthcare Resource Utilization: Number of Participants With Surgery Related to Rheumatoid Arthritis(24 weeks)
  • Percentage of Participants Achieving a Clinically Meaningful Improvement on the HAQ-DI at Weeks 12 and 24(Baseline, week 12 and week 24)
  • Patient Treatment Satisfaction(Baseline, week 12 and week 24)
  • Change From Baseline in Short-Form 36 (SF-36) Physical Component Summary and Mental Component Summary Scores at Weeks 12 and 24(Baseline, week 12, and week 24)
  • Healthcare Resource Utilization: Number of Participants With Visits to Healthcare Professionals for Treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis(24 weeks)
  • Healthcare Resource Utilization: Number of Participants With Hospitalization Related to Rheumatoid Arthritis(24 weeks)
  • Change From Baseline in EuroQol 5-Dimension 3-Level (EQ-5D-3L) Index at Weeks 12 and 24(Baseline, week 12, and week 24)
  • Change From Baseline in Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire (WPAI) at Weeks 12 and 24(Baseline, week 12, and week 24)
  • Healthcare Resource Utilization: Number of Participants Who Underwent Procedures Related to Treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis(24 weeks)
  • Healthcare Resource Utilization: Number of Participants Who Received Concomitant Medications for Rheumatoid Arthritis(24 weeks)
