NCT00989235

Brief Summary

The purpose of this exploratory sub-study was to evaluate from a clinical perspective the impact on disease activity of lowering the dose of abatacept from 10 mg/kg to 5 mg/kg in subjects who had achieved remission (Disease Activity Score 28 \[DAS 28\]-erythrocyte sedimentation rate \[ESR\] \< 2.6) at Day 701 of study IM101023.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Time to Disease Relapse Through Month 12 (Kaplan-Meier Cumulative Percentage of Events of Disease Relapse)

    An event of disease relapse was defined as additional Disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD) therapy given, or 2 or more courses of high steroids given, or return to abatacept 10 mg/kg (rescue medication given), or DAS28 C-reactive protein (CRP) score \>=3.2 at 2 consecutive visits. Time to disease relapse was evaluated using life tables (Kaplan-Meier Cumulative Percentage of Events of Disease Relapse).

    Months 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12

Secondary Outcomes (19)

  • Number of Participants Experiencing Disease Relapse

    After 12 Months of treatment

  • Mean Time-Matched Baseline DAS28 CRP Scores

    Baseline

  • Adjusted Mean Change From Baseline in DAS28 CRP During Double-Blind Treatment

    Baseline, Days 29, 57, 85, 113, 141, 169, 197, 225, 253, 281, 309, 337, 365

  • Percentage of Participants With 2 Consecutive DAS 28 CRP Scores ≥ 3.2 (Loss of Low Disease Activity Status)

    After 12 months of treatment

  • Percentage of Participants Given Additional DMARD Therapy During Double-Blind Treatment

    After 12 months of treatment

  • +14 more secondary outcomes
