Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Abatacept Trough Concentration (Cmin) in Participants Ages 6 to 17
Trough concentration of abatacept (reported as geometric mean of Cmin) in all pharmacokinetic (PK)-evaluable participants. Cmin is reported in microgram per milliliter (µg/mL). Desired target therapeutic Cmin should be \>= 10 µg/mL.
Day 113
Secondary Outcomes (6)
Percentage of Participants (Ages 6 to 17) Achieving American College of Rheumatology Pediatric 30 Response (ACRp30)
Day 113
Abatacept Trough Concentration (Cmin) in Participants Ages 6 to 17 by Weight Tier Dose
Days 57, 85 and 113
Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs), Deaths, Serious AEs (SAEs) and AEs Leading to Discontinuation in the Short-Term Period for the 6-17 Year Age-Group Cohort
From first dose up to 56 days post last dose in the short-term period (initial 4-month treatment period)
Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs), Deaths, Serious AEs and AEs Leading to Discontinuation in the Cumulative Period
From first dose up to 56 days after last dose ( up to approximately 2 years)
Number of Participants With Positive Immunogenicity Response in the Short-Term Period for the 6-17 Year Age-Group Cohort
From first dose up to start of LT (for those continuing in long-term) or up to 168 days after the lost dose of study medication in the ST period (for those not entering in the long-term)
- +1 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (1)
Short and Long Terms: Orencia
EXPERIMENTALShort Term: Orencia 50 mg/mL, 87.5 mg/mL, 125 mg/mL pre-filled syringes subcutaneously (0.4 mL/0.7 mL/1.0 mL) weekly for 4 months Long term: Orencia 50 mg/mL, 87.5 mg/mL, 125 mg/mL pre-filled syringes subcutaneously (0.4 mL/0.7 mL/1.0 mL) weekly for 20 months
Interventions
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- JIA subjects (male or female), ages 2-17 years with active disease who had an insufficient therapeutic response or intolerance to at least one non biologic DMARD or Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNFα) antagonists for at least 3 months prior to screening
- Subjects with TNFα inadequate response (or prior biologic) will be restricted to 30% of the population
- Subjects must have a history of at least 5 joints with active disease and must have currently active articular disease with ≥2 active joints and ≥2 joints with limitation of motion.
You may not qualify if:
- Subjects with other rheumatic diseases or major chronic inflammatory/immunologic diseases, active uveitis, systemic JIA with active systemic features (within a period of 6 months prior to enrollment), persistent Oligoarthritis JIA, or failed 3 or more TNFα antagonists or other biological DMARDs will be excluded.
- Active systemic disease: (ie, extra-articular features of systemic JIA including fever, rash, organomegaly) within a period of 6 months prior to randomization.
- Subjects who have failed more than two TNFα antagonists or other biologic DMARDs
