简要总结
This non-interventional, retrospective, cross sectional chart review study will evaluate the management of rheumatoid arthritis patients with a biologic in monotherapy. Data from eligible patients will be collected from the patient's last visit on the prior rheumatoid arthritis treatment and from the most recent visit for the biological monotherapy.

结局指标
主要结局
Percentage of Participants Treated With Traditional DMARDs as Their Previous Treatment for RA by Type of DMARD
时间窗: 9 months
Traditional DMARDS for RA treatment include methotrexate, sulfasalazine, leflunomide, hydroxychloroquine, gold compounds, penicillamine, cyclosporine, azathioprine, chlorambucil, mercaptopurine, and mycophenolate mofetil medications. Previous RA treatment included all the treatments received prior to switching to current RA treatment.
Percentage of Participants With bDMARD Monotherapy as Previous RA Treatment at Anytime Prior to Switch to bDMARD Monotherapy
时间窗: 9 months
bDMARDS for RA treatment include etanercept, adalimumab, tocilizumab, rituximab, certolizumab pegol, infliximab, golimumab, abatacept and anakinra medications. Only the most frequently used (\> 10% of participants) bDMARDs in monotherapy as previous treatment for RA were reported. If a participant was recorded to have been treated with a single bDMARD more than once, the participant was counted only once per type of bDMARD. If participant received 2 different types of bDMARDs as part of their previous treatment, the participant was counted twice, once per each type of bDMARD; therefore, the percentage of participants did not add up to 100%.
Percentage of Participants by Reason for Choosing Previous and Current bDMARDs in Monotherapy
时间窗: 9 months
Both previous and current bDMARDs were presented together for each subgroup, therefore the percentage of participants under each reason did not add up to 100%.
Percentage of Participants With Concomitant Treatment Other Than DMARDs for RA by Type of Treatment
时间窗: 9 months
All corticosteroids and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs taken as previous and current treatments for RA were coded according to the Roche international non-proprietary name dictionary.
Percentage (%) of Participants Receiving Biologic Disease Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs (bDMARDs) in Monotherapy as Current Treatment for RA According to National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) Guidelines by Type of bDMARD
时间窗: 9 months
bDMARDS for RA treatment include etanercept, adalimumab, tocilizumab, rituximab, certolizumab pegol, infliximab, golimumab, abatacept and anakinra medications. Current bDMARDs were defined as those with a start date on or after the date of collection, or those with a start date before the date of collection and an end date on or after the date of collection. NICE guidelines recommend the participants with severe active RA who inadequately responded to prior DMARD treatment (trial of 2 DMARDs, one which includes methotrexate) and were intolerant to methotrexate or the treatment with methotrexate considered inappropriate be treated with a biologic DMARD monotherapy.
Percentage of Participants With bDMARD and Concomitant Traditional DMARD Regimen as Previous RA Treatment at Anytime Prior to Switch to bDMARD Monotherapy by Type of bDMARD
时间窗: 9 months
bDMARDS for RA treatment include etanercept, adalimumab, tocilizumab, rituximab, certolizumab pegol, infliximab, golimumab, abatacept and anakinra medications. Only the most frequently used (\> 10% of participants) bDMARDs with concomitant traditional DMARD as previous treatment for RA were reported. If a participant was recorded to have been treated with a single bDMARD more than once, the participant was counted only once per type of bDMARD. If participant received 2 different types of bDMARDs as part of their previous treatment, the participant was counted twice, once per each type of bDMARD; therefore, the percentage of participants did not add up to 100%.
