简要总结
To determine the safety and efficacy of switch effects to adalimumab in etanercept-treated AS patients.
详细描述
This single-centre, open-labeled randomized controlled study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of adalimumab in etanercept-treated Ankylosing Spondylitis(AS) patients.
Thirty patients will be enrolled and randomized equally into two arms.
Dosage and Administration:For standard dose(etanercept 50 mg weekly) treated patients, the treatment arm will receive adalimumab 40 mg subcutaneously biweekly for 8 weeks. The control arm will continue etanercept 25 mg subcutaneously twice a week for 8 weeks. At week 8, the control arm will be switched to adalimumab 40 mg subcutaneously biweekly for another 8 weeks.For half dose(etanercept 25 mg weekly) treated patients, the treatment arm will receive adalimumab 40 mg subcutaneously monthly for 8 weeks.
