Brief summary

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of etanercept when used in the first trimester of pregnancy with respect to major structural birth defects of newborns. This is an observational study only - no investigational product is used.

Detailed description

This pregnancy registry cohort study will be conducted by the Organization of Teratology Information Specialists (OTIS) which is a network of university and health department based telephone information centers serving pregnant women and health care providers throughout North America. Participants in the first two cohorts are recruited concurrently from callers to OTIS centers, from health care providers and through direct to consumer marketing efforts. The source of historical controls is archived data on pregnancies that have been followed through the California Teratogen Information Service's Clinical Research Program located at the University of California San Diego.

Interventions

DRUGEtanercept

Pregnant women previously exposed to etanercept during the first trimester. Etanercept was not administered in this non-interventional study.

Inclusion criteria

Cohort 1 Inclusion Criteria: Eligible subjects will be currently pregnant women residing in the US or Canada who have had any exposure to etanercept for treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), Juvenile RA, Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS), Psoriatic Arthritis (PsoA) or Psoriasis (PsO) at any time during the first trimester of pregnancy which is defined as the period between first day of the last menstrual period (i.e., within two weeks of conception) up to and including the 12th week after the first day of the last menstrual period (LMP) - Eligible subjects must have documentation of an exposure to etanercept during the first trimester of pregnancy. Cohort 2 Inclusion Criteria: Eligible subjects will be currently pregnant women residing in the US or Canada who have not taken etanercept or any TNF antagonist for treatment of RA, JRA, AS, PsoA or PsO at any time in the current pregnancy or within two months prior to the first day of the last menstrual period (LMP). Cohort 3 Inclusion Criteria: Eligible subjects will be pregnant women who were residing in the US or Canada who had not been diagnosed with RA, JRA, AS, PsoA or PsO and had not been exposed to a known human teratogen during the index pregnancy.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Infants With Major Birth Defects in Pregnancies Ending With Live-born InfantsFrom birth through 1 year of ageA major structural defect is defined as a defect which has either cosmetic or functional significance to the child (e.g., a cleft lip). The Registry used the Metropolitan Atlanta Congenital Defects Program (MACDP) birth defect classification system, with some specified modifications that are appropriate for cohort studies as opposed to case-control studies.
Percentage of Infants With Major Birth Defects in All PregnanciesFrom birth through 1 year of ageA major structural defect is defined as a defect which has either cosmetic or functional significance to the child (e.g., a cleft lip). The Registry used the Metropolitan Atlanta Congenital Defects Program (MACDP) birth defect classification system, with some specified modifications that are appropriate for cohort studies as opposed to case-control studies.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Infants With a Specific Pattern of Any 3 or More Minor Birth DefectsFrom birth through 1 year of ageA minor structural defect is defined as a defect which occurs in less than 4 percent of the population but which has neither cosmetic nor functional significance to the child (e.g., complete 2,3 syndactyly of the toes). A pattern is defined as at least the same 3 specific minor malformations occurring in at least two infants in the exposed group.
Percentage of Participants With Pre-term Delivery9 monthsA pretem delivery is defined as prior to 37 weeks gestation. Computed using Kaplan-Meier estimate at 37 weeks' gestation, accounting for left truncation due to varying time in gestation at enrollment. Multiple births are excluded.

Percentage of Infants With Abnormal Results on Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ)1 year after birthThe ASQ-3 evaluates 5 domains of development: communication, gross motor, fine motor, problem solving, and personal-social. Each domain has a set of 6 items and parents rate the most appropriate answer for the presence of each skill: Yes, Sometimes, Not Yet, with point values of 10, 5, or 0, respectively. Each domain question set is totaled independently and compared against statistically derived cutoffs that are set at 2 standard deviations below the mean. The percentage of infants below the cut-off or close to the cutoff (borderline) is reported.

Outcome results

Primary

Percentage of Infants With Major Birth Defects in All Pregnancies

A major structural defect is defined as a defect which has either cosmetic or functional significance to the child (e.g., a cleft lip). The Registry used the Metropolitan Atlanta Congenital Defects Program (MACDP) birth defect classification system, with some specified modifications that are appropriate for cohort studies as opposed to case-control studies.

Time frame: From birth through 1 year of age

Population: Includes multiple pregnancies counted as 1 outcome; any 1 or more malformed infant counted as 1 major malformation in the numerator and 1 outcome in the denominator. Excludes 9 lost-to-follow-up in Etanercept-Exposed and 6 in Diseased Controls cohort. Only women exposed to etanercept in 1st trimester are included in the Etanercept-Exposed cohort.

Percentage of Pregnancies Ending in Spontaneous Abortion

Computed using Kaplan-Meier estimate at 20 weeks gestation, accounting for left truncation due to varying time in gestation at enrollment. In multiple pregnancies ending in at least 1 live-born infant, the live birth outcome is included in the analysis. In multiples ending in no live birth outcomes, the spontaneous abortion is counted as 1 event.

Time frame: 9 months

Population: Participants enrolled and exposed to etanercept prior to 20 weeks gestation (Etanercept-Exposed) or enrolled prior to 20 weeks gestation (Diseased Controls).
