Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Percentage of participants achieving low disease activity according to Disease Activity Score 28 joints-Erythrocyte sedimentation (DAS28-ESR)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Changes in patient-reported outcomes including Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) and EuroQol-5 dimension (EQ-5D);Percentage of participants achieving low disease activity according to Disease Activity Score 28 joints-Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (DAS28-ESR);Percentage of participants achieving remission according to Disease Activity Score 28 joints-Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (DAS28-ESR);Percentage of participants with European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) Response according to Disease Activity Score 28 joints-Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (DAS28-ESR); The EULAR response criteria were used to measure individual response as none, good, and moderate, depending on the extent of change from baseline and the level of disease activity reached. Good responders had a change from baseline >1.2 with a DAS28 score =3.2; moderate responders had a change from baseline >1.2 with a DAS28 score >3.2 or a change from baseline >0.6 to =1.2 with a DAS28 score =5.1. Participants with change from baseline >0.6 to =1.2 with a DAS28 score >5.1, or any score with change from baseline =0.6, were assessed as non-responders.;Presence of radiologic progression in rheumatoid arthritis (if possible);Changes from baseline in ultrasonographic findings of rheumatoid arthritis (if possible);Changes from baseline in biomarkers (if possible);Incidence of adverse events (AEs) or serious adverse events (SAEs) of targeted therapy (if possible);Compliance with targeted therapy defined by Patient-reported adherence and Modified Morisky scale (if possible)
