Background:Suboptimal control of RA may lead to severe and progressive articular damage, loss of function, and deterioration of the quality of life (QoL).Objectives:To assess treatment satisfaction, sociodemographic, clinical, health care resource utilization, and QoL characteristics of patients with sub-optimally controlled RA and treated with conventional synthetic and/or biologic DMARDs.Methods:This study was an international, multicenter, cross-sectional, non-interventional study. Adult RA patients with moderate to severe disease activity (DAS28>3.2) were enrolled. Patient satisfaction was evaluated with Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication (TSQM, version 1.4) with a scale ranging from 0 (indicating poor satisfaction) to 100 (indicating perfect satisfaction). Patients were questioned regarding treatment adherence, patient preferences, and expectations. Workability was evaluated using Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire-Rheumatoid Arthritis (WPAI-RA, version 2.0). Short Form 36 (V2) survey were performed to all patients.Results:One hundred sixty-four patients were included in the study and most (78.0%) were female. The median age was 57.0 years, ranging between 22.0 and 84.0 years. Half of the patients (50.6%) were primary school graduates and 6.1% were unemployed due to RA and seeking work. Median time since RA diagnosis was 8.0 years and mean (±SD) DAS28-CRP score was 4.8 (±1.0). Mean total activity impairment was 54.9% (±27.4). In the past 3 months from enrollment, the mean number of healthcare professional and emergency room visits were 1.8 (±1.1) and 1.8 (±1.3), respectively. Mean number and length of hospitalizations in the previous 3 months were 1.1 (±0.3) times and 8.3 (±7.2) days, respectively. Mean TSQM scores were 53.5 (±21.4) for effectiveness, 86.0 (±26.7) for side effects, 67.8 (±16.5) for convenience, and 57.7 (±22.0) for global satisfaction. The leading expectation was ‘lasting relief of RA symptoms’ (mean score: 5.8). Preferred time until the effect of onset was ‘up to 1 week’ for 76.2% of the patients. Most of the patients (57.9%) preferred oral administrations and the most preferred frequency of administration was ‘once per day’ (46.3%). Mean physical and mental component summary scores for Short Form 36 (V2) survey were 37.9 (±8.3) and 40.1 (±10.7).Conclusion:Two-thirds of the patients with RA who have suboptimal responses are not satisfied with their treatments. Moreover, oral and once-daily treatment approaches stand out in patient preferences. Finally, suboptimal control leads to deterioration in clinical characteristics, workability, and QoL of patients with RA.Acknowledgements:The design, study conduct, and financial support for the study were provided by AbbVie.

Background:Patient characteristics, their treatment preferences and goals are important determinants of treatment success in rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Objectives:SENSE study aimed at assessing the impact of inadequate response to disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs on disease outcomes, and analyze their attitude, their treatment and disease.Methods:Non-interventional, cross-sectional study conducted in 18 countries in Europe, Asia, and America. Adult RA patients with moderate/high disease activity were eligible. Patient satisfaction was assessed by Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication, Version 1.4 (TSQM v1.4). Treatment adherence, patient preferences, and expectations were evaluated by visual analog scale. eHealth Literacy Scale was employed for evaluating DHL. Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire-Rheumatoid Arthritis, v2.0 (WPAI-RA) was used to assess workability and patient documentation for healthcare resource utilization (HRU).Results:1624 patients were included in this analysis; most were female (84.2%), middle-aged, and had a mean (standard deviation [SD]) disease duration of 10.5 (9.3) years. 11.9% of the patients had retired early and 6.0% were unemployed due to RA. Mean (SD) total WPAI-RA score was 55.1% (26.7). In the previous 3 months, the mean (SD) number of healthcare professional and emergency room visits were 2.2 (2.5) and 1.6 (1.3), respectively. Mean (SD) TSQM v1.4 global satisfaction subscore was 60.9 (20.9), with only 13.5% reporting good treatment satisfaction (TSQM global ≥80). The leading treatment expectations were ‘general improvement of arthritis’, ‘less joint pain’, and ‘lasting relief of RA symptoms,’ with mean (SD) scores of 5.7 (1.6–1.7) for each. 60.7% of patients preferred oral administration and 31.3% preferred not to use drug combinations for RA. Preferred time to effect was predominantly ‘up to one week’ (71.1%). Least frequently side effects rated ‘acceptable’ were ‘increased risk for malignancies’ (3.5%) and ‘increased risk for cardiovascular diseases’ (3.3%). Most patients (67.4%) had poor DHL. Good adherence (in 87.4% of patients) was significantly associated with lower levels of joint pain.Conclusion:Suboptimal disease control has a significant impact on satisfaction, workability, and HRU. Our results can support shared decision-making when setting RA treatment strategy.Disclosure of Interests: :Peter C.

Abstract Objectives To examine secular trends in the progression of clinical and patient-reported outcomes in early RA. Methods A total of 2701 patients recruited to the Early Rheumatoid Arthritis Study or Early Rheumatoid Arthritis Network with year of diagnosis from 1986 to 2011. The 5-year progression rates for patients diagnosed at different points in time were modelled using mixed-effects regression; 1990, 2002 and 2010, were compared. Clinical markers of disease included the 28-joint count DAS and the ESR. Patient-reported markers included the HAQ, visual analogue scale of pain and global health, and the Short-Form 36. Results Statistically significant improvements in both 28-joint count DAS and ESR were seen over the 5 years in patients diagnosed with RA compared with those diagnosed earlier. By 5 years, 59% of patients with diagnosis in 2010 were estimated to reach low disease activity compared with 48% with diagnosis in 2002 and 32% with diagnosis in 1990. Whilst HAQ demonstrated statistically significant improvements, these improvements were small, with similar proportions of patients achieving HAQ scores of ≤1.0 by 5 years with a diagnosis in 1990 compared with 2010. Levels of the visual analogue scale and the Mental Component Scores of the Short-Form 36 indicated similar, statistically non-significant levels over the 5 years, irrespective of year diagnosed. Conclusion This study demonstrates improvements in inflammatory markers over time in early RA, in line with improved treatment strategies. These have not translated into similar improvements in patient-reported outcomes relating to either physical or mental health.

Background:Use of patient-reported outcomes (PROs) to assess health-related quality of life in clinical practice, research studies, and clinical trials in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) remains an ongoing area of research. SF-36 is commonly used in RA trials but is not feasible for routine use in clinical practice settings. ThePatientReportedOutcomesMeasurementInformationSystem (PROMIS) may address this gap but has not been widely assessed in RA patients starting therapy in a real-world comparative effectiveness study, nor examined in that setting in relation to the SF36 and Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI).Objectives:To assess validity of PROMIS based on Comparative and Pragmatic Study of Golimumab Intravenous (IV) Versus Infliximab in Rheumatoid Arthritis (AWARE), an ongoing Phase 4 study providing real-world assessment of IV tumor necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi) medications in RA patients.Methods:AWARE is a prospective, non-interventional, 3-year study conducted at 88 US sites. RA patients were enrolled when initiating TNFi treatment. Treatment decisions were made by treating rheumatologists. We report baseline PROMIS-29 (7 domains and pain intensity), PROMIS Pain Interference (PI) Short Form (SF) 6b (PI6b) and PROMIS Fatigue (F) Short Form 7a (F7a), domain T-Scores, and SF-36 subdomain and Component Scores (CS) in AWARE patients. Here we report baseline data obtained from the final 1-year AWARE dataset. Correlations between PROMIS measures and comparable SF-36 component scores were calculated using Pearson correlations. Data is shown as mean ± standard deviation (SD).Results:At baseline, mean CDAI of all patients (n=1262) was 32.3±15.6, with 70.4% in high disease activity (HDA, CDAI>22), 22.8% in moderate disease activity (MDA, CDAI: >10 and ≤22), 6.1% in low disease activity (LDA, CDAI: >2.8 and ≤10), and 0.7% in remission (CDAI ≤2.8). Mean PROMIS scores were >0.5 SD worse than population means for Physical Function (PF, 38.1±6.84), PI (63.4±7.68), F (58.8±9.95), Sleep Disturbance (55.1±8.68); and Ability to Participate in Social Roles/Activities (PSRA, 43.4±8.58). Baseline Depression and Anxiety were within 0.5 SD of population T-scores. PI6b, F7a, and P29 domain T-scores correlated with the comparable SF-36 subdomain and component scores (r’s >0.58), except sleep for which no comparable SF-36 element was applicable. Examples include: P6b (r=-0.80) and P29-PI (0.81) with SF-36 Bodily Pain; F7a (-0.77) and P29-F (-0.77) with SF-36 Vitality; P29-PF with SF-36 PF (0.77), Role-Physical (0.69), and Physical CS (0.73); P29 Anxiety with SF-36 Mental Health (-0.72), Role-Emotional (-0.56), Mental CS (-0.70); and P29-PRSA with SF-36-Social Functioning (0.71). Mean PROMIS-29 T-scores (except Anxiety and Sleep Disturbance) among patients with HDA were significantly different from patients with MDA, LDA or remission (p < 0.001 for all). Further, mean PROMIS T-scores of PF, F, PSRA, PI, Pain Intensity, PI6b and P7a among patients with MDA were significantly different from patients with more or less active RA (by CDAI category).Conclusion:Analysis of baseline results from a large cohort of RA patients indicates high correlations between individual P29 domain T-scores and SF-36 component scores, as well as categorical CDAI, providing strong evidence of PROMIS construct validity in a real-world population of RA patients.Disclosure of Interests:Clifton Bingham Grant/research support from: Bristol-Myers Squibb, Consultant of: Bristol-Myers Squibb, Shelly Kafka Employee of: Janssen Scientific Affairs, LLC, Shawn Black Employee of: Janssen Research & Development, LLC, Janssen Scientific Affairs, LLC, Stephen Xu Employee of: Janssen Research & Development, LLC, Wayne Langholff Employee of: Janssen Research & Development, LLC, Jeffrey Curtis Grant/research support from: AbbVie, Amgen, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Corrona, Janssen, Lilly, Myriad, Pfizer, Regeneron, Roche, UCB, Consultant of: AbbVie, Amgen, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Corrona, Janssen, Lilly, Myriad, Pfizer, Regeneron, Roche, UCB
