Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Patient characteristics including demographics, prior treatment and prescribed co-medications. Change from baseline in CDAI at Weeks 12 and 36. Proportion of patients achieving at Weeks 12, 24, 36, and 52: CDAI remission (CDAI <=2.8) CDAI LDA (CDAI <= 10.0) DAS28 remission (DAS28 < 2.6) DAS28 LDA (DAS28 < 3.2) SDAI remission (SDAI <= 3.3) SDAI LDA (SDAI <= 11.0) Change from baseline at Weeks 12, 24, 36, and 52: TJC-28 SJC-28 PrGA-VAS DAS28 - score (separately for DAS-CRP and DAS-ESR) SDAI Laboratory disease parameters: CRP ESR Radiographic outcomes: Proportion of patients with absence of new bone erosions as per investigator judgement compare to baseline at Week 52, if radiographies are available as per routine practice at baseline visit and at Week 52. Sarilumab therapy: Proportion of patients with modification sarilumab therapy scheme (monotherapy and combination-therapy) Proportion of patients on sarilumab 200 mg or 150 mg. Modification of dosage (include frequency of administration) Reasons for adjustments in sarilumab dose associated (but not limited to): Laboratory abnormalities (Neutropenia, Thrombocytopenia, elevated liver enzymes) Efficacy Persistence with treatment or reasons for discontinuation Patients switching to another treatment for Rheumatoid Arthritis (eg, bDMARD, additional csDMARD, tsDMARD) Co-medications: Proportions of patients with: Dose increase, decrease, no change of csDMARD compared to baseline No new prescription of csDMARD Dose increase, decrease, no change in corticosteroid use compared to baseline No new prescription of corticosteroids Use of statins (Initiation and dose changing) Change from Baseline at week 2, 4, 12, 24, 36, and 52 in PROs with respect to physical functioning, morning stiffness, pain, fatigue, PtGA, treatment satisfaction and Work Productivity. Safety: Incidences of AEs and laboratory test abnormalities. | — |
