Patients with active moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis unable to use methotrexate

You may qualify if:

  • Adult patients, \>/= 18 years of age
  • Moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis according to the revised (1987) ACR criteria
  • Patients who for any reason do not take methotrexate and for whom the treating physician has made a decision to prescribe RoActemra/Actemra as monotherapy; patients who commenced RoActemra/Actemra as monotherapy within 8 weeks prior to the enrolment visit may be included
  • Concomitant treatment with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) or corticosteroids (orally or intra-articularly) is allowed

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients who have received RoActemra/Actemra more than 8 weeks prior to enrolment visit
  • Previous RoActemra/Actemra treatment in a clinical trial or for compassionate use
  • Concomitant DMARD treatment for rheumatoid arthritis (e.g. hyroxychloroquine, sulfasalazine, methotrexate, leflunomide, gold compounds, cyclosporine)
  • Treatment with any investigational agent within 4 weeks (or 5 half-lives of investigational agent, whichever is longer) before starting RoActemra/Actemra treatment
  • History of autoimmune disease or any joint inflammatory disease other than rheumatoid arthritis
