Participants who received Humira®Humira® 40 mg (marketed product) every other week (eow) for subcutaneous injection after initial dosage of 160 mg and 2nd dosage of 80 mg in two weeks after the initial administration

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Drug Reactions

    The number of participants with adverse drug reactions with evaluation beginning upon administration of Humira® is assessed.

    Measured: Up to Week 156

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Global Assessment of Gastrointestinal Symptoms

    Study participants completed a global assessment of their gastrointestinal symptoms on a 5-grade scale. Assessment is graded from 0 to 4: 0=free of symptoms; 1=symptoms existed since the last visit, but did not affect participant's daily life; 2=symptoms existed since the last visit and slightly affected participant's daily life; 3=symptoms existed since the last visit and affected participant's daily life; 4=symptoms existed since the last visit and critically affected participant's daily life.

    Measured: Up to Week 156

  2. Global Assessment of Gastrointestinal Symptoms of Behcet's Disease

    Study participants completed a global assessment of their gastrointestinal symptoms (including abdominal pain, diarrhea and other gastrointestinal symptoms such as abdominal distension, abdominal tenderness, and hemorrhage) on a 5-grade scale. Assessment is graded from 0 to 4: 0=free of symptoms; 1=symptoms existed since the last visit, but did not affect participant's daily life; 2=symptoms existed since the last visit and slightly affected participant's daily life; 3=symptoms existed since the last visit and affected participant's daily life; 4=symptoms existed since the last visit and critically affected participant's daily life.

    Measured: Up to Week 156

  3. Number of Participants With Cardinal Symptoms of Behcet's Disease

    The presence or absence of symptoms including recurrent aphthous ulcers of oral mucosa, cutaneous symptoms, eye symptoms and ulceration of vulva was assessed at weeks 52, 104 and 156 against presence or absence at baseline.

    Measured: Up to Week 156

  4. Number of Participants With Accessory Symptoms of Behcet's Disease

    The presence or absence of symptoms including arthritis without deformity or stiffness, epididymitis, vascular lesions and moderate to severe central nervous system (CNS) lesions was assessed at weeks 52, 104 and 156 against presence or absence at baseline.

    Measured: Up to Week 156

  5. Number of Participants With Degree of Improvement of Endoscopic Findings

    The number of participants with improvement in endoscopic findings is assessed.

    Measured: Up to Week 156

  6. Changes in C-reactive Protein (CRP)

    The change in CRP from baseline through the end of the study was assessed.

    Measured: Up to Week 156
