Primary outcomePrimary: Clinical Outcome (Disease Activity Score [DAS28] Decrease ≥1.2) After 3 Months of Humira Therapy Relative to Baseline in Participants With RA — 56; 251; 78 participants

Summary

This is a non-interventional, post-marketing, observational study (PMOS) in which Humira (adalimumab) is prescribed in the usual manner in accordance with the terms of the local marketing authorization with regards to dose, population and indication. No data currently exists to characterize patient populations being prescribed Humira in Eastern Europe. Further, it is important to establish the clinical outcome and tolerability of Humira in Eastern European patients, as well as their compliance with Humira treatment, in particular the acceptability of self-injection, which may influence all of the above in routine clinical practice.
