  • Child, Adult

Study population: JIA participants treated with biologic and non-biologic DMARDs from the Thomson Reuters MarketScan® Commercial Claims and Medicare Supplemental Databases

Who may be able to join

  • Participants with less than (<) 18 years of age at index
  • Continuously enrolled for greater than (>) 6 months prior to index (baseline period)
  • One diagnosis of JIA (714.3) on a non-diagnostic claim either during the baseline period (the complete participant record prior to the episode index will be defined as the episode baseline period) or within the first 30 days following the index date

About this study

This study is designed to analyze the frequency and incidence rate of pulmonary complications in JIA participants who received biological DMARDs and non-biologic DMARDs. The participants having evidence of of a prescription or administration of one of the biologic or non-biologic DMARDs will be included in five different treatment groups. Data from the Thomson Reuters MarketScan® Commercial Claims and Medicare Supplemental Databases will be used to estimate the incidence rate of pulmonary complications.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Biological DMARDsDrug

    Participants will receive biologic DMARDs as per standard of CARE. The choice of specific biologic DMARD will be at the descretion of treating physician.

  • Non-Biologic DMARDsDrug

    Participants will receive non-biologic DMARDs as per standard of care. The choice of specific non-biologic DMARD will be at the descretion of treating physician.

    Measured: up to the end of study (up to overall period of 12 years)

  2. Percentage of participants with alveolar proteinsis

    Measured: up to the end of study (approximately 2.2 years)

  3. Percentage of participants with lipoid pneumonia

    Measured: up to the end of study (up to overall period of 12 years)

  4. Percentage of participants with pulmonary hypertension

    Measured: up to the end of study (up to overall period of 12 years)

  5. Percentage of participants with overall composite pulmonary complications

    Measured: up to the end of study (up to overall period of 12 years)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis, run by Hoffmann-La Roche.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jun 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of participants with pulmonary arterial hypertension (time frame: up to the end of the study (up to overall period of 12 years)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Jun 2016.
