Study Summary

Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a systemic inflammatory autoimmune disorder that leads to inflammation and progressive joint damage affecting 2.5 million people in the United States. The primary purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of switching to an alternative Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) alpha inhibitor in comparison to continuing treatment with an existing TNF-alpha inhibitor in adults suffering from RA in a setting of inadequate clinical response to etanercept or adalimumab.

Primary Outcome

The DAS28 is a score on a scale (0 to 10) indicating current activity of rheumatoid arthritis (\>5.1=high disease activity; \<=3.2=low disease activity; \<2.6=remission); a continuous variable which is a composite of 4 variables(the number of tender joints out of 28, the number of swollen joints out of 28 joints, serum C-reactive protein in mg/L (CRP) and subject assessment of disease activity measure on a visual analogue scale (VAS) of 100 mm).

Interventions

  • DRUG Adalimumab
  • DRUG Etanercept
  • DRUG Adalimumab placebo
