- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Main Objective: to evaluate the disease activity after dose reduction, aiming adalimumab concentration of 2 mg/L or 5 mg/L, in rheumatoid arthritis patients responding to adalimumab.;Secondary Objective: - to evaluate whether reducing adalimumab dose aiming a concentration of 2 mg/L is superior in costs savings compared to dose tapering aiming adalimumab concentration of 5 mg/L; <br>- to evaluate the algorithm used to achieve target concentration of 2 mg/L or 5 mg/L; <br>- to study the difference in cumulative incidence of flares between the two study groups ;Primary end point(s): The primary study endpoint is the difference in mean time weighted DAS28-CRP between week 0 and 28.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 28 weeks
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Secondary end point(s): • Difference in mean time weighted DAS28-CRP between study groups after 12 weeks<br>• Direct medical costs (medication, non-scheduled visits due flares, cost TDM testing) over 28 weeks<br>• Agreement between algorithm predicted and measured adalimumab concentrations at week 28.<br>• Number of flares and dose-interval shortenings after 28 weeks.<br>;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 12 and 28 weeks
