Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Change in the Disease Activity Score - 28 (DAS-28)

    Time frame: Every 3 months up to 6 months, then every 6 months up to 24 months

    The DAS - 28 is calculated using the number of swollen (SJC) and tender (TJC) joints out of 28, the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and the patient's global assessment of disease activity using a 100 mm visual analogue scale (VAS)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Duration of Morning Stiffness (min)

    Time frame: Every 3 months up to 6 months, then every 6 months up to 24 months

    This is ascertained by the treating physician during the patient assessment and is measured in minutes

  2. Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI)

    Time frame: Baseline, month 6, month12, month 24

    This is a self-administered questionnaire comprised of 10 items assessing a patient's skin and problems associated with skin disease. The 10 questions in the DLQI converge into six domains that measure symptoms and feelings, daily activities, leisure, work and / or school, personal relationships and satisfaction with treatment.

  3. Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI)

    Time frame: Every 3 months up to 6 months, then every 6 months up to 24 months

    Self-administered questionnaire measuring the patient's functional ability during the last week.

  4. Patient Global Assessment of Disease Activity (VAS and 5 Point Scale)

    Time frame: Every 3 months up to 6 months, then every 6 months up to 24 months

    A 100 mm VAS with 0 indicating lowest disease and 100 highest disease activity and a five point Likert Scale (0 - 4) that is completed by the patient at the physician's office

  5. Physician Global Assessment of Disease Activity (VAS and 5 Point Scale)

    Time frame: Every 3 months up to 6 months, then every 6 months up to 24 months

    This is a 100 mm VAS with 0 indicating lowest disease and 100 highest disease activity a five point Likert Scale (0 - 4) that is completed by the physician during the patient examination
