Trial Outcomes & Findings for Study to Evaluate Safety and Effects of Tofacitinib and Biologic Disease Modifying Antirheumatic Drugs in People Treated for Rheumatoid Arthritis (NCT NCT05572567)
NCT ID: NCT05572567
Last Updated: 2025-06-08
Results Overview
Incidence rate was defined as participants with total CVD events per (/) 100 person years. Total CVD was defined as hypertension requiring hospitalization, cardiac revascularization procedure (CABG, stent, angioplasty), ventricular arrhythmia, cardiac arrest, myocardial infarction, acute coronary syndrome, unstable angina, congestive heart failure (CHF) requiring hospitalization, stroke, transient ischemic attack, other cardiovascular event (specify), deep vein thrombosis, peripheral arterial thromboembolic event, urgent peripheral arterial revascularization, peripheral ischemia or gangrene (necrosis) and pulmonary embolism. Index visit was defined as the initiation date of the therapy of interest. Mean of incidence rate of total CVD events was calculated and reported.

Timeframe: Baseline, Month 6 (Retrospective data collection from 01 March-2016 to 30-Jun-2022)Population: Participants who had RA and initiated treatment with methotrexate, tofacitinib, TNFi or non-TNFi and who were followed up after first dose of the drug were included.
CDAI was the numerical sum of four outcome parameters: Tender joint count (TJC) or swollen joint count (SJC) both based on a 28-joint assessment, participant's assessment (PtGA) of disease activity and physician's global assessment (PGA) of disease activity both assessed on a 0 to 10 centimeter (cm) visual analogue scale (VAS) (higher scores indicated greater affection due to disease activity). CDAI total score ranged from 0 to 76. Higher scores indicated greater affection due to disease activity. CDAI less than or equal to (\<=) 2.8 indicated disease remission, greater than (\>) 2.8 to 10 indicated low disease activity, \>10 to 22 indicates moderate disease activity, and \>22 indicated high disease activity. Mean change from baseline was calculated by subtracting the baseline value from the 6-month value.

HAQ: participant-reported assessment of ability to perform tasks in 8 categories of daily living activities: dress/groom, arise, eat, walk, reach, grip, hygiene, and common activities over past week. Each item scored on 4-point scale, 0 to 3: 0=no difficulty; 1=some difficulty; 2=much difficulty; 3=unable to do. Overall score was computed as sum of domain scores and divided by number of domains answered. Total possible score range 0-3: 0=least difficulty and 3=extreme difficulty. Higher scores indicated worse functioning. Mean change from baseline was calculated by subtracting the baseline value from the 6-month value.

Participants were asked the following question to answer on a numeric rating scale (NRS): "How much pain have you had because of your arthritis in the past week?" The scale ranged from 0-100, where 0=no pain and 100=pain as bad as it could be. Higher scores indicated worsening of condition. Mean change from baseline in participant's pain was calculated and reported.

EQ-5D-5L was a participant rated questionnaire to assess health-related quality of life. It assessed level of current health in 5 domains: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain and discomfort, and anxiety and depression. Each domain had 5 levels: 1= no problems, 2=slight problems, 3=moderate problems, 4=severe problems, or 5=extreme problems/unable to do task. Total score for each domain was from 1-5, where higher levels/scores indicated more difficulty in each domain. At baseline and 6 months, percentage of participants who recorded "moderate", "severe" or "extreme problems" level in each of the domain were assessed; then change was calculated in percentage of participants from baseline at Month 6 and was reported in this outcome measure.

PRIMARY outcome
Timeframe: Baseline, Month 6 (Retrospective data collection from 01 March-2016 to 30-Jun-2022)Population: Participants who had RA and initiated treatment with methotrexate, tofacitinib, TNFi or non-TNFi and who were followed up after first dose of the drug were included.
MCID improvement assessed based on CDAI. CDAI: numerical sum of 4 outcome parameters: TJC and SJC based on a 28-joint assessment, PtGA and PGA assessed on 0-10 cm VAS; CDAI total score = 0-76, higher scores=greater affection due to disease activity (DA). CDAI \<= 2.8 indicates disease remission, \> 2.8 to 10 = low DA, \>10 to 22 = moderate DA, and \>22 = high DA. MCID improvement defined by difference in CDAI from baseline (at time of tofacitinib initiation) to 6-month visit.
