Trial Outcomes & Findings for Special Investigation in Patients With Crohn's Disease (All Patients Investigation) (NCT NCT01298648)

NCT ID: NCT01298648

Last Updated: 2018-07-02

Results Overview

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with treatment. An Adverse Drug Reaction (ADR) is any noxious and undesired reaction related to an experimental drug or experiment. A serious AE (SAE) is an AE that results in death, is life-threatening, results in or prolongs hospitalization, results in congenital anomaly, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, spontaneous or elective abortion, or requires intervention to prevent a serious outcome. AEs were rated for severity as either Mild: transient and easily tolerated; Moderate: causes discomfort and interrupts usual activities; or Severe: causes considerable interference with usual activities, may be incapacitating or life-threatening. AEs related to adalimumab were assessed as being either probably or possibly related by the investigator. An Unexpected ADR is an ADR for which the nature or gravity is not consistent with the applicable product information.

Population: Safety analysis set: Excluding 21 patients who were transferred to other institutions during the surveillance period and 2 patients who made no visit after the first administration, 1693 patients were included in the safety analysis set.

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with treatment. An Adverse Drug Reaction (ADR) is any noxious and undesired reaction related to an experimental drug or experiment. A serious AE (SAE) is an AE that results in death, is life-threatening, results in or prolongs hospitalization, results in congenital anomaly, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, spontaneous or elective abortion, or requires intervention to prevent a serious outcome.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, Week 4

Population: Participants with available data at each time point.

The CDAI is used to evaluate the activity of Crohn's disease. The CDAI is calculated on the basis of a one-week evaluation of 8 items and ranges from 0 to about 600. The 8 items are frequency of liquid or very soft stool, abdominal pain, complications of Crohn's disease (e.g., uveitis, arthritis, fistula, and abscess), abdominal mass, hematocrit, body weight, use of antidiarrheals, and general condition. Low scores indicate low activity of Crohn's disease. In general, CDAI scores below 150 represent remission and scores over 450 represent very severe Crohn's disease.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Week 24

Overall response rating, according to investigator's subjective clinical opinion. The level of improvement (markedly improved, improved, not improved, or not assessable) was categorized by comparing clinical condition at week 24 or at discontinuation with baseline condition.

Timeframe: Baseline, Week 4, Week 8, and Week 24

Population: Participants with available data at each time point.

The remission rate for each evaluation timepoint (Weeks 4, 8, and 24) was calculated as the number of participants that had CDAI \< 150 divided by the number of participants at Baseline that had CDAI scores ≥ 150.
